Can you ship with the ebay standard envelope? He complained about how shipping cost killed any profit. Report this Post to the Staff
Zurie Pillar of the Community United States 5665 Posts	Posted 04/27/2022 10:47 am To qualify for the ebay standard envelope, it needs to fit in a regular envelope, be less than 1/4 inch thick and no more than 3 oz. So a proof set in a rigid plastic holder wouldn't work. Report this Post to the Staff
colonelgreen New Member United States 22 Posts	Posted 04/27/2022 6:33 pm Are you sure that the proof sets are more than 1/4 inch and that they will be rejected by the usps in the standard? Another point I have not seen made on this topic is that you need to enter the weight, 1,2 or 3 oz and the charge will go up based on the weight. Report this Post to the Staff
