Has eBay discontinued Large First Class envelope shipping?
I just sold an item that was to ship via Large First Class envelope. It was less than 3/4" thick (7x5") and weighed 2 oz. When setting up the listing, it was $1.59 for shipping. However when I went to print the label, shipping had changed to USPS Advantage for $ 4.00+. I went to the PO this am and sent it for $1.59. Has eBay stopped offering Large First Class envelope shipping while printing a label through their site? Anyone else experience this recently.

Mentor2 years ago@gpm0414. eBay never had an option to buy a letter rate shipping label. You can select the option on the listing form but you buy the postage at the post office.
All eBay shipping labels are package rate with tracking. Except for eBay Standard Envelope shipping method which has a different rate for select items.

OP2 years agoI misunderstood that a large envelope could contain items that were less than 3/4" think and fit in a large envelope. A little more research on the USPS website states that contents must be uniform in thickness (flats). Looks like the most economical way to ship these items on eBay is Ground Advantage, plus is comes with tracking. Thank you

·2 years agoThat type of mail doesn't come with tracking. EBay shipping will only show the mail services that do have tracking .
