|
| Hello
I finally opened my store after almost 2 years being closed
and I see a couple surprises like Ship Station on PayPal.
I just created a label for a large envelope. Cheaper option
was First Class Mail but I don't see a tracking number for it.
Are there any settings where I can set it up? Or maybe there
is no longer tracking for First Class Mail?

First Class Mail is tracked as long as it's a parcel and not a letter. Perhaps
that cheaper option is for letter mail? What letter does the label you created
have on it? If it's an F then it's First Class (a P would indicate Priority
Mail).

You are right. I chose letter and it was treated as regular letter.
There was also no letter on the shipping label there was number "1".
Later I didn't choose letter and I got tracking.
Thank you!

I don't use Paypal to print labels, however I suspect what you needed to
do was to ship First Class Package, not First Class Mail which are letters and
carry no tracking. Hopefully your buyer isn't. hit with a postage due notice
when the order arrives.
If you are interested in shipping alternatives, try Pirateship.com. No fees but
you have to use a credit card to purchase postage. Lots of tutorials and IM help.
I love it.

More than likely, the seller will get hit with the cost of Priority Mail. USPS
takes the view know what you're doing, or we will charge you for it !
