So my son printed a label yesterday using Fedex Ground Economy and I noticed the label came out with both a Fedex Ground Tracking, and a USPS tracking number. It had a "S" in the square which I thought stood for Fedex Smart Post, however when I went back, that option was not available (Weighs 33 lbs) I looked in shipping manager and it does say FedEx Ground Economy. My customer lives in Alabama . Has this ever happened before to anyone? With Fedex smart Post, the post office usually takes it, however now I have no idea where I would drop it off to. FedEx, or USPS.

FedEx renamed "Smart Post" to "Ground Economy" a few years ago. Sometimes they will deliver the package directly, and sometimes they hand it off to USPS.
The max weight for this service is 70 pounds.
Gird yourself for a shipping cost adjustment in about 3 weeks ... the quote you get from eBay does not include all of the charges that you will incur from FedEx. If you haven't shipped, I would recommend cancelling this label and using USPS Ground, which (in the end) will be the cheaper option.
(P.S. I hate this service with a passion, mostly due to horrible timeliness of delivery).
