Hello, am setting up my booth and prefer to ship via USPS & allow the Buyer to select their preferred ship method & rate. I am only seeing Priority and Express options – is that all there currently is to offer? Where is the option for First Class Parcel; I noticed someone referred to using it when searching thru Help;)
Thanks in advance for the help ~

HI and welcome!!
There is this warning when you attempt to as you state “allow buyer to select their preferred method and rate”…. here’s the warning
Why choose a service?
If you don’t select a shipping service, we’ll default to show buyers the lowest price option available. This means that you could end up paying more for shipping than you want to
If you don’t mind my input, I mostly use the flat rate option, under the Free and Flat rate tab. You have the option here for many shipping options AND you can add more options if you want..ie…First Class (if within the weight limit)…Priorty….etc. You also have the option to chose UPS options as well. Once set up, when customer checks out, they will have these options.
I hope this helps in some small way.

The option is there, it is just called First class mail, they left out “parcel”. If you add a weight over 13oz then it is no longer an option

I have been begging Bonz for YEARS now to re-instate the Parcel Post CALCULATED option (they used to have it way back when) rather than just having the more expensive CALCULATED options and that has fallen on deaf ears. I know USPS calls parcel post something else now (like Parcel Select or Parcel Ground ow whatever) but it is a cheaper option than Priority and sometimes just a small amount less in Calculated ship costs can make or break a sale. Would also be nice for Bonz to offer the Regional Rate Boxes Priority option but don’t get me started on that either.
