Shipping help needed

I need some help on doing shipping of some Matchbox box's. I want to ship them first class, bUT the way they have the shipping part of eBay is slightly confussing. The first class that I see listed is for a package, I am going to send them out in photo envoleps. I dont want to pay the $5.35 and up for priority shipping on these. I see economy shipping and standard shipping. Can tracking be put on one of these? Thanks for any help,

Tony

Hi Tony, this is different to the shipping I use on ebay uk. I simply select the category (tracked, first class, second class, etc) and enter the postal cost myself. Are you using the global shipping programme or another shipping facility on ebay?

Hi John and thanks for your reply. I went a head and did "standard shipping" which i hope turns out to be the same as first class. I dont see why they have to make things so complicated.

Standard shipping sounds ok, the listings I do come up as standard or economy where economy is second class or equivalent. Here, unless it's part of the gsp you have to select tracked or signed-for as an option.
