Because you cannot print a label for First Class through eBay because it does not have tracking. In order to have seller protection you have to have tracking. You can put some stamps on it or buy postage at the post office but it will not have tracking.

Although eBay offers First Class Large envelope when creating a listing, you would not be able to purchase a shipping label for that service. That's because that option doesn't come with tracking.

You could take a First Class Large envelope to the post office, but even then, there would be no tracking.

eBay requires you to have tracking information to have seller protection. A large envelope that is mailed first class mail does not have tracking information so the label cannot be purchased through eBay. You would either have to use stamps or get the label from the post office.
