Why has the .97 cent shipping label options for a letter not available anymore?

When I enter my envelope details I'm not given the option to get the ebay large envelope option I used to be able to choose. I can't sell the item because the shipping fee is out of whack.

Why has the .97 cent shipping label options for a letter not available anymore?

"eBay Standard Envelope for Trading Cards, Stamps, Postcards & Coins" is a great option for some categories, but it is not available in all categories or for all items.

 

Try a Sticker Category for your Stickers, rather than Grateful Dead category

 

More information:

 

Requirements are

- Categories of Trading Cards, Coins and Currency, Postcards, Stamps, Patches, Sticker and Decals, Seeds, and Greeting Cards

- Weight up to 3 oz

- Value up to $20

- Envelope Size - 6x4x1 to 11x6x1 (You can use .25 or 1 for the thickness here)

 

Does your item meet the above criteria?

 

You can use any ordinary envelope as long as your envelope meets the criteria below. If it doesn't meet these criteria, the shipment may be returned to you, or the buyer may receive the item with postage due.

 

The Envelope criteria

- No smaller than 3.5” x 5”

- No larger than 6.125” x 11.5”

- Thickness is uniform, less than 0.25” inches at all points

- Not too rigid

- Weigh 0.0 to 3.0 oz.

- Contains NO clasps/strings/buttons or similar closure devices

- Has the recipient address parallel to the longest side

(no bubble mailers, they are too thick)

 

You can also use the eBay standard envelope template to ensure the envelope you're using to ship your items qualifies.
