This really is a problem and its not going to be solved by ebay. There are a lot of people with websites other than ebay who accept paypal. They should really get this solved soon. I too have written to paypal about this over a year ago and they said they were working on it. Until they finally get the programmers to fix this there is another option I haven't seen anyone mention. Simply select Priority mail, then package/thick envelope for size - next it will ask for dimensions, and if you type in a box roughly equal to the small flat rate box or even the USPS media box that is slightly larger and stay under 1 pound they only charge, $5.24. They used to charge the same as the small flat rate box until the new year, they just went up in price. I have been doing this for years with no problem. Another option is to use the USPS.com website which works very well and has all the option. The downside is none of your customer name or address information comes across. Please fix the problem Paypal!!!
