https://community.ebay.co.uk/t5/Postage/Beware-Royal-Mail-Parcel-Lockers-there-s-a-fatal-design-flaw-and/m-p/7952580#M65708 <P>Yes, surely Royal Mail's designers must have known of the issue and the solutions their rivals have. As pointed out by c_of_e84 ,DHL dealt with the matter in Germany over twenty years ago. That's why I call it a design flaw, a basic conceptual mistake from the outset. I am in Edinburgh but the nearest post office is about three miles from here. I was thus delighted to learn about the Royal Mail Parcel Locker facility a five-minute walk away, delighted until aghast when I found it unavailable.</P> Tue, 04 Nov 2025 14:41:48 GMT pillarboxred 2025-11-04T14:41:48Z
