How can I find the Shipping Fees for an item if it is to be calculated?

To find the shipping fees for an item, you can make a call to GetItemShipping. 

Here is the sample SOAP request:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<GetItemShippingRequest xmlns="urn:ebay:apis:eBLBaseComponents">
<RequesterCredentials>
<eBayAuthToken></eBayAuthToken>
</RequesterCredentials>
<ErrorLanguage>en_US</ErrorLanguage>
<WarningLevel>High</WarningLevel>
<ItemID>XXXXX</ItemID>
<QuantitySold>1</QuantitySold>
<DestinationPostalCode>40404</DestinationPostalCode>
<DestinationCountryCode>US</DestinationCountryCode>
</GetItemShippingRequest>

Here is the response:

<ShippingDetails>
  <CalculatedShippingRate>
    <OriginatingPostalCode>95125</OriginatingPostalCode>
    <PackagingHandlingCosts currencyID="USD">3.0</PackagingHandlingCosts>
    <ShippingIrregular>true</ShippingIrregular>
    <ShippingPackage>LargeEnvelope</ShippingPackage>
    <WeightMajor unit="lbs" measurementSystem="English">0</WeightMajor>
    <WeightMinor unit="oz" measurementSystem="English">2</WeightMinor>
  </CalculatedShippingRate>
  <ShippingRateErrorMessage>No Error</ShippingRateErrorMessage>
  <ShippingRateType>OnDemand</ShippingRateType>
  <ShippingServiceOptions>
    <ShippingService>UPS2ndDay</ShippingService>
    <ShippingServiceCost currencyID="USD">26.52</ShippingServiceCost>
    <ShippingServicePriority>1</ShippingServicePriority>
    <ExpeditedService>false</ExpeditedService>
    <ShippingTimeMin>1</ShippingTimeMin>
    <ShippingTimeMax>2</ShippingTimeMax>
  </ShippingServiceOptions>
  <ShippingType>Calculated</ShippingType>
