Why I couldn't save my listing in the new form

I tried to enter my package weight and dimension in the first class setting, which was over the 15 oz limit,  thinking that first class was a substitute for USPS ground advantage.  Nope, it wasn't.  Wouldn't save....  changed it to priority, then could save, but my customer will now have to pay for priority instead of less expensive USPS ground.  I know i can refund postage, but that is a hassle. 

Seems like USPS ground advantage should be an option.  Am I missing something here?

First Class packages have not been available since last July. Etsy finally updated so we can now select Ground Advantage - you can mail up to 70 lbs that way.

I see ground advantage is available when I use the separate shipping calculator, but how do I make that one of my shipping profiles?

Re: Why I couldn't save my listing in the new form

@TheCreamHorse  - USPS merged first class package & parcel select mail classes in July last year.

You're in the USA, but didn't mention if you use calculated shipping or set manual shipping costs.

If you use manual, you enter the shipping cost, the Shipping Profile attached to the listing must have Ground Advantage included.

If you use Calculated Shipping you will need to go into Advance Setting and include Parcel Select as a shipping option.

Then Priority will be shown as a upgrade the buyer has the option to choose.

Thanks for the help.  This certainly seems more complicated than it used to be.
