Ebay Standard Shipping Suddenly Unavailable. Is anyone else having issues?

[antiques10101]

All of a sudden I'm not able to select the "Ebay Standard Shipping" option for coins and collectibles even though I'm in the right category/price range/shipping weight/size, etc.  This has never been an issue before.  Is anyone else experiencing this issue at the moment?  Just wondering if it's a site issue or something else.  Thanks!

Looks like mine is up again as of 9:45 am (Central time), Tuesday, Sept. 6th.  Hopefully it stays that way.

eBay switched to new listing software circa 23 Sep 2022 or a little bit earlier.  Consequently, the new software lost the standard envelope capability.  I made many calls (and chats) to eBay.  They have acknowledge the existence of the problem and state the their technical support staff is working on the problem.  Correcting the problem does not appear to be  in the immediate future.

If using a template you have to go edit your template and add the standard envelope option.

Better to start a new thread than bump an old one @babygirl82 as info in the old thread is usually outdated.

eBay made an unannounced change recently related to setting up listings with certain types of packaging. When package dimensions entered exceed eBay's programmed dimensions, eBay will not show you those shipping options when setting up your listing.

To access these services, enter the following package dimensions:

USPS Flat Rate Envelopes: 12x9x1
USPS Small Flat Rate Box: 8x5x1
USPS Med Flat Rate Box: 14x12x3 or 11x8x6
USPS Large Flat Rate Box: 12x12x6
eBay Standard Envelope: 11x6x1
