Not seen this one before. Usually I print direct from Ebay, but I have 2 accounts and for whatever reason that doesn't work on my older (less busy) account.
I know the new Ebay direct system takes the item weight from a drop down menu deep down in the listings template, but the item I'm trying to post is very small and I've certainly never entered it as anything other than a LARGE LETTER.
Not sure how I'm supposed to complete my post run in time with this error, other than printing direct from Royal Mail, which is a massive pain as each address has to be pasted over.

I'm also getting the same error when trying to send client orders that WooCommerce (through WordPress) has automatically generated.

I'm just going to try again tomorrow. There's a time when you have to get everything else in the post!
But on the Ebay dispatch tab, I just get "payment error" - the card is fine because they've been taking my monthly fees from it no problem 😞
