Shipping Calculator Settings
Ebay's automated help is helpless. I would appreciate getting some advice regarding the settings in the shipping calculator. I am choosing to sell postcards in the stamps category with the understanding that these can be sent Standard Envelope. The issue I am having with the calculator is being able to set the Standard Envelope shipping method as it is not showing up in the list of shipping options. USPS Ground is the only method available after scrolling through the whole list. Being in the stamps category should it not automatically show up in the list as an option. Am I missing something? Any advice or help in this matter would be greatly appreciated. I can't charge such a high rate for a postcard and expect to sell very much. Thank you.

Enter the weight and dimensions of your item and then see if you can select "eBay Standard Envelope for Trading Cards, Stamps, Postcards & Coins".
=> Use 6" x 4" x 1" and 3 oz or less
- If the eBay Standard Envelope doesn't appear on the first attempt, save your listing for later, reopen the draft, and try again.
- eBay Standard Envelope for Trading Cards, Stamps, Postcards & Coins" will be in the "Standard Services" section.
Requirements are
- Categories of "Trading Cards", "Coins and Currency", Postcards, or Stamps
- Weight up to 3 oz.
- Value up to $20
- Envelope Size: 6 x 4 x 1 up to 11 x 6 x 1
---- >>> And if you would, let me know if this solves the problem.
PS, you can list in Stamps or Postcards and this should work for both
