Confused by my first EIS Sale

Question

I sold my first item through EIS. It came as a surprise because I got enrolled automatically. The order shows me that the buyer paid $5.49 shipping and that's how much it costed me to ship to EIS hub. Now what is confusing is that the shipping fee that the buyer paid is so low and there are no import fees. When I look at the same item now, it shows me $18.94 shipping and $21.15 import fees. Not sure what happened there and not sure how much the buyer paid exactly.
