Ebay is updating User Agreement. Lots of changes, expensive ones.

USPS is changing too. After June 28 I think it said.

Ebay keeps shipping overage unless you use free shipping. USPS eliminating 4 and 8 ounce levels. ALL PACKAGES under 1 pound ship at a flat rate 15.9999 ounce rate, no matter the distance. Same rate NATIONWIDE.

USPS will be left with heavy long distance packages they cannot deliver on time. Local or regional buying will be cost prohibitive. This will favor people located in the middle of the country, I think.

The only option for sellers is to offer free shipping and add about $8 to the price of every item. No exceptions.

Also eBay can force you to ship at higher rate Priority or Express Mail unless you manually select Ground Advantage.

eBay will struggle with these "improvements". Improvements for whom?

2. Ebay has always been like this. Their "improvements" are a disaster. I threw in the towel long ago.
