I accidently shipped 3 USPS Priority Mail boxes as first class package

[keem.usa]

What should I do to get 3 of them redirected back to my address? I do not want the buyers to have to pay the postage fee and leave me bad feedback. On USPS's website, it says the package has not been scanned yet and is ineligible for package interception. Please help

Thanks

Hello,

You will be charged for the postage fee; not the buyer. Do not worry.

So it will still arrive to the buyers? But I would be charged a 2lb priority mail rate?

@keem.usa   As @stuff_from_dylan mentioned that package will be delivered ... you will see a charge on your monthly invoice and will also receive a message from eBay that you were charged the fees.  The system in place is called APV and what it does it checks package size and weight against the postage paid.  So if you under pay on a label then the APV system catches it when they weigh and scan your packages at a bulk mail center, its all automated.

eBay and USPS instituted this program so packages would NOT get held up and that neither the Buyer or Seller would have to pay upon delivery or delay prior to shipping ... but the amount you pay will NOT be the discounted rate with eBay, it will be the rate paid at the counter.

I didnt make the label on ebay. The boxes I used only permits you to ship with priority mail, but I shipped it with first class package on accident. The packages only weigh 9 ounces.

That's an interesting wrinkle. I bet you'll be invoiced for 1# packages in full to the destination... if you get caught by the random checks. If you didn't buy the labels on eBay, they won't be able to deduct your initial cost from the charges.

If you don't get caught, you don't get caught. I wouldn't intercept the packages. Good luck!

If you purchased your label online, then the Postage Due will be charged to whatever account you used to purchase your label.
