Just noticed this. I always provide at least two USPS shipping options when creating my listing. For example Parcel Select and a Priority mail.
BUT
Only my first listed shipping option appears in the final listing when I click the Shipping and Payments tab.
I have been wondering why buyers never select my second listed alternate. No one ever chooses Priority.
Whats up?
How do I fix this?
Help appreciated

Ebay doesn't always show all the shipping options to the buyers.
You might have a few different options, but they might show 1 or 2.

eBay will always show the first option you've listed. Then they will determine whether to show other(s); only options that are cheaper and/or faster will be shown. Priority costs more, so it would only be shown if Parcel Select is slower.
At current USPS rates, the prices for Parcel Select Ground and online Priority Mail are almost the same. However, the shipping calculator in eBay listings defaults to show the retail rate for Priority Mail, so it always looks significantly higher than Parcel Select. That's why buyers will probably not choose it even if it is shown.
