I sell using ebay envelope for some of my items and have that listed as the shipping charge I also add ground advantage as a choice to the buyer at checkout. I noticed if an item goes past the 20 dollar limit im still just getting the ebay envelope price even though it wont let me ship it that way is there a way to list it so the buyer pays the ground advantage pricei have set.

You need to revise your listings and remove "standard envelope" option.

You can list with eBay envelope for primary method with free shipping and offer ground advantage as secondary method which does NOT have free shipping I know you can set it up like that but I don't know for SURE that it works. I THINK it does. The listing says "buyer pays".

No, it's not possible to do what you want the way you want it to happen @dynamitedw .
Say you start your auction at $5 and I place the first bid of $25 with advertised ESE shipping factored in when I decide my total bid price. Then the auction gets bid up and surpasses $20. You can't changed the advertised ship cost on me because my $25 bid was placed with the advertised ESE shipping upfront and I factored that in when placing my highest bid.
It's your job as the seller to account for this. Some options:
- Your auction start price can be bumped up to account for Ground Adv shipping so you're covered if the auction surpasses $20
- Don't offer ESE on auctions that may surpass $20
- Consider the higher auction price as gravy to cover the bump from ESE to Ground Adv
