How Will Existing Listings with 1st Class Shipping Listed Be Handled After July 9th?

[paytonrules2003]

The question I have is what happens to all of our existing listings that have 1st class shipping? Ebay is automatically changing over parcel select shipping to USPS ground advantage but refuses to do so for 1st class packages. I just spent 30 minutes on the phone with a clueless member of "the management team" who basically told me it is my problem. I had to point out the email that was sent and the link it sent us to and show that they were basically dumping the problem in our laps. Of my 13000+ listings over 11000 ship via 1st class. Do they really think I'm going to start manually changing them all on my own? All I want them to do is to automatically switch them over to what they call "Standard shipping" in the drop down menu, which would then enable me to choose the appropriate shipping method on my end when I do my bulk labels through eBay each morning. All I want is to know that the eBay customer will still be able to purchase my item for the price shown with the shipping price quoted in my listing. I'm willing to do the rest. I am not willing to go in and manually change the shipping method for over 11000 listings myself.

IS EBAY GOING TO KEEP OUR EXISTING LISTINGS WITH 1ST CLASS SHIPPING OPTIONS AVAILABLE TO OUR CUSTOMERS?

Can't you just use a find and replace in the edit description?

Shipping details are not in the Description, some seller may place shipping info in the description area AS WELL as it's proper location. Those that do that just have twice as much work to do.

The generic standard shipping option is offered when you are listing. It is under the standard shipping section just like first class package is.  You need to enter a flat rate when you do use it.
