Why doesn't greedbay just add tracking cost to first class? Instead of causing the seller chaos
First class a lot less money than ground adv. Selling inexpensive items become impossible due to high postage. Each time the post office raises prices more billion profit for greedbay.

Show us a link to that USPS service.

"They have a contract with USPS or they would be allowed to offer their discount."
Sorry, but that's partially incorrect.
The only domestic postage contract with which eBay is involved is with Pitney-Bowes, not USPS.
And, since most eBay products are not shipped via USPS First Class envelope rates, there is no motivation for Pitney-Bowes to offer any discounts on USPS First Class envelope services, beyond the discount for business metered mail via the eBay Standard Envelope.

It is less BECAUSE there is no tracking. This is set by USPS. eBay had nothing to do with it.
