where is the regular USPS priority mail option?

so It looks like ebay changed the shipping. Apparently the buyer selected usps priorty mail package. Well, I'm selling clothes and I never send them in packages. I don't use flat rate. I use the polymailers. Why do I not have the option for the standard USPS priority mail? All of it is either first class, priority mail package or flat rates. If I select package it's a whopping 10 bucks. The listing had the option:

USPS priority mail

there was no "package" listed?? sold an item a few days ago and shipped it  normally with polymailer and not the package option so I don't get this. 

 

EDIT:

 

Okay I looked at the listing and apparently I selected package (or thick envelope). So I thought by thick envelope it would let me select regular priority mail as well... guess I have to select large envelope instead. changing pronto ugh

You're looking for that option when you go to print the label?

There is a thread with a screenshot that shows you how to get to that option.

The distinctions between package, thick envelope, large envelope, etc. apply only to First Class mail.  

 

For Priority Mail, the rate is based on weight and distance, and dimensions only matter if the package is large enough to incur the dreaded "dimensional weight."  It doesn't matter whether you call it a package or a large envelope, that doesn't affect the postage cost for Priority Mail.  If your package (or polymailer, or whatever other packaging you used) is over 1 pound, then the postage cost is indeed over $10, if you're mailing to Zones 7 or 8.
