Is there a way to make sure you've switched all your First Class packages to Ground Advantage

[gurlcat]

....that DOESN'T involve opening each listing one-by-one and scrolling down to the shipping and clicking See Details?  

[gurlcat]

How did you check them all, just one-by-one, opening each listing and clicking See Details in the shipping section?  And every single one was switched?

I was not aware that eBay would print a postage label for a machinable flat. I had previously shipped many items in a letter envelope with a stamp and had thought that eBay did not provide postage for a first class letter or flat, and that eBay labels only supported package rates.

Your understanding is correct @shipscript . eBay does not offer untracked labels (FC letters/flats) through eBay labels. They allow sellers to offer that shipping option in their listings, but don't support it through eBay labels.

On another discussion a representative from the shipping team said eBay is giving sellers until the end of the year to make FCP/GA updates. They have not said definitively what will happen after that. One possibility is anything still listed with FC may see rates based on FCM. If there's a conflict such as FC + package type "package" the listings might not renew.

We are still waiting to hear how the system will work in January. But until them, eBay is standing by their initial direction that sellers have to update their own listings from FCP to GA.

I appreciate the tool, but I don't think I even understand how to use that.😕

Want help @fern*wood ? Send me a PM.

I believe I ran your listings through the tool about a month ago and called out anything outstanding, but if you want me to run another scan, or give you some pointers on running the scan yourself let me know.

@wastingtime101  @shipscript  Have yall heard of this ^^^ ebay automating the FC > GA switch for whole stores?

No. And @ampgroup2021 still has 4 listings with First Class, but they are all Flats so they would go FCM not FCP.

Except for this one which has to be a package:

Their GA listings show the revision history. Item 374221674870 was revised Aug 17 at 3:51 PM PDT

All of my listings that were first class mail, are all showing as Ground Advantage, I stated this in my first post, showing, and printing as Ground Advantage, and I did not change a single listing.

@ampgroup2021  You keep avoiding my question.  I've asked you 3 times now, where SPECIFICALLY are you seeing the Ground Advantage.  As in, on what screen?  A screen shot would be ideal.  

You are purporting something that eBay has categorically said will not happen & that NOBODY ELSE has seen.  Including myself who has 1000 something listings all still showing FC, just like Ebay said they would. 

Yes, they show & print GA IN THE SHIPPING SECTION, but ONLY there.   That's why we need to know where you're referring to.

1. Enter your username in the top slot
2. Click the button "Get Items" from eBay.
   The scan will start after the eBay items have loaded.
3. You will see the grid populate with listing details as each item is retrieved (middle screenshot).
4. When the scan completes, a report will display a selectable list of shipping services found in your listings.  Select a report, like "First Class Mail".
5. Click the "Build Report" button.
6. View the page of items that include First Class Mail.

I'm not avoiding anything, I am simply telling you what has occured, whether you want to believe it or not,

wastingtime101 has kindly pointed out that  4 listings have not converted, I really appreciate this advice, so out of 674 listings of a potential 3321, 4 have not converted, that means that 670 did convert, with zero input from me.

Regarding item #374221674870, this was not revised by me, my entire store was converted by ebay, except listings (potentially) which I am now going to check now.

[ampgroup2021]

None of the 4 listings that you have quoted belong to me, what are you talking about?

374723457123

374710415772

374760132156

Except for this one which has to be a package:

374514373142

None of these are mine, I have 674 listings, all of the first class mail options have been converted, not by me, perhaps eBay tooth fairy?, who knows, not sure where you're getting your bogus info but the 4 listings you quote bring up a completely different user.

Um....

It now transpires that wastingtime101 (such a wonderfully apt name) is completely wrong.

None of these listings are mine, so, out of 674 listings, each and every applicable listing has been converted by ebay, not by me, wastingtime101 is doing simply that, wasting time.
