Re: Can't purchase USPS shipping label through eBay. "No services available"
It's back!
"Sorry, we couldn't find a delivery service for this order. Error getting quotes from server. Retry" Comes up again 2024-04-01 5pm, as well as the good ole "No services available" on the main label page.
I used the "Bulk Order" workaround for a year (because normal shipping gave me the "No services available" error last year), that worked great, but now it's doing this even in www.ebay.com/gslblui/bulk/, where it says "Sorry, we couldn't find a delivery service for this order. Error getting quotes from server. Retry". I suspect the real reason has something to do with eBay losing their discount with the shipping companies and they're just playing dumb lol. But seriously, using ebay shipping, I usually get a 50% discount on large packages through fedex and ups, over going to the counter in person. So a package that costs $400, goes for $200 through the now-defunct ebay label system.
pargran3 said ( tried this but no cigar, it seemed logical though😞 "The issue might be that you need to choose a method for payment for the label. If you have the default set to available funds, you might not have enough to cover the label so you would need to switch it to your alternate payment method."
Here's the tech transcript:

feel free to go into my account and try to create a fedex label for: 8lbs 28"x17"x11"
05:44:07 UTC Jayprakash
I have discussed your concern with my manager and let me inform you that there is a temporary technical glitch in the site due to which you are not being able to purchase the label for the above item now and hence I am raising a ticket on the same on high priority basis so that the relevant team will investigate the matter and will fix it as soon possible so that you won't face the same issues ever again going forward.
05:44:36 UTC Jayprakash
And for now I would suggest you to kindly purchase the label outside eBay and ship the item to the buyer for now.
05:45:32 UTC Jayprakash
You can also get your item shipped directly from your nearest post office.
05:45:55 UTC korytina
can you reproduce the problem on your side?
05:48:37 UTC Jayprakash
I have already raised the ticket to the relevant team on this and they will investigate the matter and will get it fixed and for now, kindly get your item shipped either directly from your nearest post office or you can purchase the label outside eBay from your nearest crier company and ship the item to the buyer.
05:48:56 UTC korytina
how long will it take them
05:50:25 UTC Jayprakash
I a sorry as won't be able to give you the exact time line since it's not available in our system, however the maximum time frame will be 3-5 business days Daniel.
05:50:58 UTC korytina
if you or they need to ask me addition questions, my email is <snip>
05:51:14 UTC korytina
ebay messaging is fine as well
05:51:52 UTC Jayprakash
Sure Daniel thanks for your cooperation in this and I can assure you again that there is a temporary glitch in the site only and there is no issue from your end in this.
05:52:07 UTC Jayprakash
And this will be fixed very soon for sure.
05:52:16 UTC korytina
what do you suspect the problem is? I suspect my account is flagged
05:53:26 UTC Jayprakash
I have cross checked your account and see that your account seems to be working absolutely fine and there is no issues in your account. Please rest assured of that and this issue is from eBay's end because of the temporary glitch.
05:54:01 UTC korytina
the other thing is this is not a temporary glitch, I've had this problem for a year and using bulk shipping was a workaround until today
05:57:07 UTC Jayprakash
Okay, I see.
05:58:15 UTC Jayprakash
I am adding this thing in the ticket as well and I will monitor the progress personally as well.
05:58:32 UTC Jayprakash
And I am really sorry for the inconvenience caused to you Daniel.
05:58:49 UTC korytina
I appreciate that
