https://community.ebay.co.uk/t5/Postage/Simple-Delivery-Not-simple/m-p/7912330#M63782 <P>I'm in the same leaky boat. I'm 76 and have been on here on and off since 1999. I've also had 2 orders go wrong recently after a long period of eBay inactivity for health reasons. eBay prices start so low eg £3.38. I might be sending a mug or a large heavy flat collectable wall calender. On my listing I always give an accurate post cost RM 48hr tracked with the proviso that any savings I can make at the time of packing and posting I will refund to them. I always do even if it's 30p though I'm usually spot on. The beauty of doing it myself is I'm able to confirm to the buyer it's been picked up ( I totally rely on home collection due to disabilities) and the day it should reach them. If I get an anticipated 2 hr slot I also advise them. It's always appreciated. My worry is I won't be able to give buyers this level of service because I won't know what's going on. Everything I sell is my own stuff and proceeds go to my local community foodbank, the homeless and a wildlife charity. The alarm bells rang when I sent a message re delivery to the buyer and eBay intervened with a mssg that they now liaise direct with my buyer re delivery queries. It's a mess and a muddle not of my making and sadly I'm ready to bail out. I hope the powers that be read our comments.
