Wanted to see the difference in cost to ship economy versus priority before I listed something. Retail Ground is on the USPS website but I don't see USPS Parcel Select Ground so I searched on their site, and it looks like it is for commercial pricing. Does anyone have any idea how it compares cost-wise for the buyer and for the seller versus Retail Ground?

Which price do we get if we ship via eBay?

Retail Ground is the over the counter rate at the PO. Parcel Select is the online rate, and is cheaper. Both were previously called Parcel Post.

I listed it with one, checked prices and then changed to the other. For a 2 lb package, there is a 9 cent difference to a buyer in LA (from Ohio). Do you know if the price to the seller is lower for one versus the other? |

You would only pay the retail rate if you buy postage on USPS.com or at the post office. |

Totally atrocious price for parcel select. 6 pound 16x16x8 box weighing 6 pounds going coast o coast was over $20. Ridiculous.
