All USPS shipping labels generated as HAZMAT today. Why?

[impossible_objects]

I bulk purchased numerous labels at the same time as I always do every day.  My items are clothing.  ALL labels this morning generated as H for HAZMAT and they all say "HAZMAT - Surface Transportation Only"

I have never even touched the "this package contains non-hazardous materials" dropdown or attempted to change that default, and afaik it would need to be changed for each item individually.  

What is happening here?

Problem appears to be corrected now

Ooof, I hope you are right because I'm just about to do today's shipping and I don't want to go to the post office.

@impossible_objects @rjsretrogaming2012 and others:

You shouldn't ship with hazmat labels if your items aren't hazmat.

According to eBay this problem is fixed, but you'll need to void your affected labels and purchase new ones.

To void a shipping label purchased through eBay, go to this page, find the order and select Cancel from the Actions drop-down. The cancel option is available for 28 days.

It takes between 2-4 weeks to receive a refund on an unused, voided label as the carrier wants to make sure the label isn't used. You'll see the refund on your original source of payment (eBay funds, bank, credit card, etc) and the funds will appear in your account without an email notification.

I just had a customer in Poland say my international shipping isn't working either. They couldn't purchase an Item. I guessing this glitch is also effecting the International Shipping program.

Completely unrelated @svsteve13 - more likely eBay International Shipping is restricting that item to buyers in Poland.

Same thing here I called ebay they said it was ok just ship it. Talked to usps worker he said its ok he did stick hazard warning labels on all the packages.I sent the buyers a message about what happen one was a kids item now it has a hazardous warning on the package.

[impossible_objects]

sending buyers a message is a good idea
