Does having First class mean it won't sell until changed to Ground advantage?

In a way it's O.K. because I have a lot of listings that need to be revised in different ways to my advantage. The post office has used the term "first class" for at least 150 years and suddenly decided that "first class" is no longer usable for packages. .

Unless there is some secret code ebay uses to disadvantage the listings with 1 st package, your items will sell as before if you have not changed into GA yet. I don't know exactly, but you have at least 30 days to change that. If you use other label providers, USPS will honor 1st class package labels until the end of September without any penalties.

I sold 3 items today that said FIRST CLASS. I did not get a chance to edit those. The shipping fee was still correct. When I printed, there is a G instead of an F. My guess for the post office change is that First class mail is really NOT first class anymore since everything is trucked.

I hope to finish editing by Friday.

You can bulk edit up to 2000 listings at a time; takes about 20 minutes.

Your items can still sell. The old FC on the label has changed to G.

@mtgraves7984 I am not sure about that. I went through around 75 listings today that where first class and it showed no shipping option chosen and gave no price. I do not know what the buyer sees.
