Two things to keep in mind: First, the flat-rate EMVELOPE and the SMALL FLAT RATE BOX are not the same price anymore, and due to USPS having detected that people were printing labels with too little value applied, they're starting to check for this more often; you risk not only getting the package back, but having USPS scrutinize a lot more than just that one item. Second, being able to print labels direct from the eBay interface does you not one bit of good if your primary need for shipping is due to sales on your own website, as mine are. In other words, PayPal has dropped the ball badly on this, and was supposed to have the needed changes in place BEFORE the january 4th postage rate changes...but they didn't, and now we don't really have any idea when - or even if, really - those changes may be made. I'm just using Endicia for my postage until they get this straightened out. I get a better rate there on certain things anyway, and it will handle ANY kind of mail, including international, properly.
