I do a lot of selling on EBAY, if your item qualifies for the special “Ebay Envelope” rate it is a great way to save on shipping, and the best part is it includes Tracking.

I sell baseball cards, post cards and other items that qualify, having the tracking included is very valuable.

Is "eBay envelope" a special category one sees when setting up shipping for a listing? I began a listing to take a look at the shipping options and did not see "eBay Envelope". I just put in a weight (3 oz.), dimensions, and had selected USPS First Class Mail Large Envelope, which noted:

2 to 5 business days Max. 13 ounces, 15 by 12 by 1 inches

And it came back with the $2.05.

If I go onto usps.com, max thickness is 1/4", and then you jump to a package rate which starts around $5. :-(

Agreed about the tracking. And of note, I have received items in envelopes from US eBay sellers that sound like what you describe, even exceeding the 1" thickness maximum I ran into.

Can I find somehow, literally, "eBay envelope" ? I simply don't see it in the many options under "Select a shipping service". ???
