I’ve been wondering this for awhile but am just now getting around to asking.
We choose “Free Shipping” on all of our listings (no international). But every time I list an item and get to the end it “suggests” that I “add a US shipping option”. For the life of me I can’t see ANYWHERE to input the carrier we use (UPS).
What am I missing?

Not really sure where you see the “suggests’ that I add a US shipping option”…
On my free shipping listings I do not see that..however, it is a suggestion and you don’t have to worry about it..
If you charged for shipping either a flat rate or calculated, the options to choose your shipping with does appear with the options to choose USPS/UPS…
Simply click on flat rate/or calculated and explore the set up, but since you are using free..it really does not make that much of a difference
If you wish your buyers to know that you are shipping UPS you can actually add the information automatically to all your listings
Edit Booth Options
Shipping and returns tab
The first [URL removed]
Items ship within…you have Ships in 1 business day you can quite a bit more informaion to that box…example…
Items are sent using UPS and ships with 1 business days or something like that..

I agree. I just opened a booth, have 9 listings posted and every one of them put up that message that I needed to select a shipping option even though I did. Must just be a bug; each one posted anyway.

An additional concern to this is that with free shipping, a buyer doesn’t know how their package will arrive.
I’d like to let my buyers know whether their free shipping will arrive via UPS or USPS, etc. Some buyers would like to know that.

Remember these tips:
- Use links to other sources to support your opinions

- Put yourself in the inquirers shoes: what extra info would be helpful?
Should I post a comment or an answer?
You can only post one answer, so make it count. Maybe your reply is more fitting as a comment instead?
Post an answer for:
- Replies that directly and specifically answer the original question
Post a comment for:
- "Thanks," "Me too," "I agree," or "Works for me" types of replies
- When you would like the original poster to provide more details
- When you have more to add to someone else's question or answer
