I am not seeing media mail as an option when listing an item for sale. Does anyone know why? I have reviewed the USPS site and it is still being offered? Any suggestions?

Hi @queenbebe9

Your item most likely does not meet Media Mail requirements. Here is a link to info on the USPS website. Not sure what you are trying to list but if it's a magazine they cannot be shipped Media Mail because the contain advertising.

Medi Media Mail Service (usps.com)a Mail Service (usps.com)

Sometimes selecting the wrong eBay category may eliminate Media Mail as a shipping choice.

Thank you; I was listing some MAD magazines. I checked and there are no outside ads. Maybe I should change the catagory??
