Exactly that.

If it costs £3.71 with both carriers selected, why does it cost any more if only one is selected?

It's just another way for ebay to steer buyers toward whichever option makes ebay most money.  If a seller wants to use the other option, the buyer pays ebay more so that ebay makes its target level of profit per transaction.

It's a penalty for not helping ebay towards it's massive spend commitment to Evri.
