UK Economy Postage Rate not available

[moggysjm]

 I am frustrated. In order to keep costs down to my buyers I list my auctions with postage showing as 'Economy Postage' in Ebay. When the buyer has paid for the item and I go to print off the postage label there is no option available for me to select the Economy Postage rate - the rates shown in the drop down list are all in the first class rates.

Is there something that I can do about this at all - any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Steve

I have had this problem twice this year.  The economy postage is available when you post your item and not when you go to print off their lable for postage meaning you have to send by Royal Mail etc, which costs much more.  I am therefore left out of pocket and very frustrated.  I think that it may be linked to the buyers address ie whether they have the economy service where they live.

This has been a long standing issue for some time.

It woud be helpful if Paypal could link to Ebay and when sellers choose UK 2nd class Economy for their items that a warning comes up.

As a seller, I want to make my transactions as smooth and easy as possible for the buyer and get their items in the post.

By using Royal Mail postage, it takes twice as long but at least it works!

It may be too obvious or perhaps not too suitable for those posting large amounts of packages, but the economy rate is available over the PO counter. Why not support your local PO instead of pumping more money into Paypal's pockets?
