Where did you get this idea from? Not only is shipping not free, but the "official" carrier (China Post) is quite expensive - to the point where many people will either use private couriers (for Chinese internal shipments) or will courier things to HK and send them via HK post (for international shipments). In the latter case, there are quite a few companies that do this as a service - they will take a truck full of packages over to HK and post them for you for a small markup on the HK post rates - which still end up being substantially cheaper than the Chinese ones (and, for surface shipments, a lot quicker too).
