USPS provides me a very nice sturdy box for mailing shoes. a shingle store box slips into the USPS box, tape it up and off you go...OOPS Ebay/USPS does not provide a flat rate label lookup for this item.  Thousand of shoes are sent via Ebay Why not a shoe box label listing?.  So then what

Because it ships at the regular Priority Mail rates that are based on weight and distance.  There's no special rate for the shoe box, so there's no reason to list it separately (as is done for the flat-rate and Regional  boxes).

The RR A2 Box measures 10 -15/16 x 2-3/8 x 12-13/16;   The RR A-1  is 10 x 7 x 4-3/4

Shoe Box is            7-1/2  x 5-1/8 x 14-3/8

For the Regional "B 1" Box you have on the the list ... After it exceeds $13.60 you might as use a Medium Flat Rate Box because it can weigh up to 70 lbs for that almost same size box and you'd be paying more if it was heavier  not to mention the med box is a bigger. Yes specs will tell you it's not like here in the picture however I have them both  in front of me and the medium box flat rate is bigger!

I deliver both almost daily (m-f) and the RR'B' is larger (except in the 1/2" difference in height) than the MFRB.
