Check those rates!

Question

Maybe Iâ€™m the last one to know, but wow ground advantage rates are really good. Of course, only if you are using the eBay (or similar) discounts.

I sell a lot of records, and usually use media mail. But ground advantage is really pretty cheap. I just checked today â€“ because I had a large order of multiple records, and it was fairly heavy. Iâ€™m glad I scrolled down, but do wonder how much Iâ€™ve lost out on over the past few months.

Yeah pirate ship has been offering those amazing cubic deals for quite a while. A lot of us have posted so many times to tell people to go use pirate ship but so many just didn't seem to want to put in the effort. It's good they're finally getting those deals now directly from eBay.

Glad you looked and found a better and faster shipping method.

It will fluctuate though depending on weight and zone so you might find Media Mail cheaper some times (although slower)

eBay announced cheaper rates for GA in this post:

Also very impressed. I shipped two items to Hawaii on Saturday. They are out for delivery today. Good job! Now if I could just get my mail delivered now and then to my residence I'd be really happy. USPS service in my neighborhood...terrible.

Happy Selling!
