In the Terms and Conditions page that eBay had inadvertently published last month, eBay referenced its service providers’ terms of service – naming USPS and Easyship. A spokesperson checked and said she had no additional information. We followed up by asking if the USPS was offering eBay the ability to sell trackable First Class Mail at $1 or less (perhaps through a Negotiated Service Agreement), or if the USPS allowed companies like eBay to resell postage below cost. The Postal Service and eBay are two separate organizations.”
It is not a USPS branded product it is simply an eBay product. The company pointed to these paperboard envelopes as one of the acceptable options. It can’t be smaller than 3 by 5 inches nor larger than 6.125 inches by 11 inches. The envelope can’t be thicker than 1/4 inch. It is handed off to the USPS for shipping, just like any other envelope would be. Standard Envelope will be good for shipping up to 3 ounces. A spokesperson replied, “It is an eBay envelope, not a USPS envelope. We asked the US Postal service for help in understanding how eBay was able to offer sellers such an attractive postal rate.

In its announcement, it said eBay standard envelope offered savings up to 70% over USPS First Class Package Service shipping costs, plus includes shipping protection. However, it’s unclear how eBay is able to offer such a low rate.

As Sports Collectors Daily wrote, “It’s welcome news for those who offer lower cost cards but who have been faced with a dilemma: charge $3 or more for shipping in a padded envelope so their first class shipment is trackable or offer free or low cost shipping in a plain, white envelope and run the risk that a buyer won’t claim the card wasn’t received.”
The new shipping option fills a big gap for sellers of certain goods. Doesnt seem like much, but once a day for a year is like 700 in money just thrown down the drain. I am getting hit with this about once a day. to print labels and ship trading cards priced $20 and under and up to 3 oz., in an envelope with tracking included, for less than $1.” Someone buys a 19 card and a 2 card and I am stuck with first class package because the system wont let me split the order back apart and use 2 standard envelopes. In this week’s announcement, eBay stated, “Beginning January 2021, the new shipping service, eBay standard envelope, allows sellers in the U.S. The company made the announcement official this week through a press release, though it has not re-published the landing page describing the new service. We had reported on the new “eBay standard envelope” option last month when eBay inadvertently published a page describing the service earlier than it had intended and quickly removed the page. The service will become available next month for trading cards priced at $20 or less and weighing up to 3 oz. The reason I ask is there are several people reporting not being able to use standard envelope in the trading cards lots category as well, so I'm wondering if eBay has either messed up the programing or suddenly decided lots don't qualify.EBay is offering a way for its sellers to send lightweight items to buyers WITH TRACKING for under a dollar. Have you been able to use eBay Standard Envelope for items listed in that category before? I see those were listed in the US stamp collections & lots category. Very confusing at this it the sky lab and pioneer stamps? Have the categories really dropped those items, and if so, I would think that Ebay would have sent out a general notice. No mention of it being used for stamps, postcards, etc. I just talked with Ebay, and she sent me a list of what standard envelopes can be used for. I was just going to print a standard envelope for the sale of 8 stamps and it would only allow me to print a first-class label for 3.86, which is more that the sale. But I always get in my feedback fast shipment arrived early (sometimes earlier then the first class that is shipped in the game general area) I am pretty confident in this shipping method. having used this shipping method quite a bit I can see an Improvement. Anyone else experienced problems with the Ebay standard envelope? I understood it was going to be ok to mail about 12 stamps, 3 postcards, etc. When this shipping first came out it was not that good.
