A shipping service category supported for the site.

Note: This container is only returned if ShippingCategoryDetails is included as a DetailName filter in the request, or if no DetailName filters are used in the request. Each shipping service supported for a site is automatically categorized by eBay into one of the shipping categories available for that site depending on how the shipping service shipping time aligns with the shipping times specified by eBay for each category.

Notice that you cannot specify a ShippingCategory as an input to any API call - eBay does this categorizing automatically. ShippingCategory is read-only data that is returned in the ShippingServiceDetails container. One possible use of this data is to segregate shipping services by ShippingCategory in a pick list. (For an example of this, see the Services pulldown menu in the Give buyers shipping details form in the eBay Sell Your Item flow.)

One way to populate the picklist would be to call GeteBayDetails with DetailName set to ShippingServiceDetails. Then sort these results by ShippingCategory and populate the picklist.

The ProductDetails.ProductIdentifierUnavailableText field contains the actual text that should be passed into the relevant product identification fields (EAN, ISBN, UPC, MPN/Brand) if eBay is prompting/expecting one of these fields in the call request, but the identifiers do not exist/apply for the product. The text will vary based on the listing site. This text should only be used if no product ID exists for the product. If a product identifier value does actually exist for a product, but the seller passes in 'Does not apply' text, that listing may get penalized in search.

Note: This container is only returned if ProductDetails is included as a DetailName filter in the request, or if no DetailName filters are used in the request.
