Ship By Dates do not match my handling time

I have 1 day handling and lately my ship by dates that show up with each item's information on my sold items page are not accurate. For example, I sold something last night (Wednesday) with 1 day handling that is showing a ship by date of Friday. The things I am selling today show a ship by date of Tuesday, all items that have 1 day handling. Anyone else have this problem?

It is probably due to Vereran's Day holiday.

Several threads on this.

 

eBay first messed up the time change, and now the do not know when the Nov 11 holiday is a far as USPS shipping goes. They will not allow a label to print for Nov 10, but show shipping on Nov 11 when the PO is closed.

 

eBay has been made aware of the problems, but need to hire someone else to program their systens as they do not seem to be able to make this simple fix.

There have been several threads recently reporting this same problem.

 

Ebay is aware of it and is working on it.

I know when I need to ship, but I am hoping for no sales later in the day today.  Early I can handle, as I will be near a PO to drop off before they close today.

 

Tonight if I get a sale eBay won't let me print a label to ship on the 10th. No mail on the 11th.  I'm not sure how scanning would go with a label printed to ship on the 11th being picked up and scanned on the 10thupside_down

If you have same-day or 1 day handling I would STRONGLY recommend changing to 2 day right away and then change it back on Saturday.

Good idea for the OP to try that.

 

Me, I am already on 2 day handling so no problem with shipping late with this snafu.

 

The time changes (twice a year) have been in effect since before eBay was even known as eBay. 

 

It is very difficult to understand why they can not correct the issues with the 12:59 vs 11:59 time change error, and the Holiday being on the 11th, and not the 10th.  

 

It must be a way more complicated process than I can comprehendstuck_out_tongue_winking_eye

I'm glad I saw this thread because I noticed it this weekend.   I have shipped like normally do.  It threw me for a loop.   But I've learned in life to adapt.
