I have a dictionary that weighs approx 1.56kgs ebay is recommending 2kg postage.Now bearing in mind my husband does an absolutely grand job on packing to prevent any damage this may go slightly over the 2kg with the box and the packing.If this exceeded the weight once packed would it still be eligible for the 2kg postage that ebay is recommending or do they not take into consideration packing.The problem with simple delivery is that you do not know the correct weight is until after you have packed and it is a lot of faffing around to have to ask the buyer to cancel and re purchase and I would not want to put the buyer to all that inconvenience. Also the difference on the cost of the postage is £3.38 to £6.65 as I have put it at the upper postage to avoid any issues with the parcel being delivered and there being excess postage to pay, which I would pick up the tab for and again I do not want to put the buyer at any inconvenience.As you can appreciate this is quite a difference and I think this is putting people off purchasing the item.Any thoughts ?
