https://community.ebay.co.uk/t5/Seller-Central/Why-cant-we-change-the-size-of-items-on-Simply-Delivery/m-p/7853556#M734467 <P>This is one of the things many people, including many sensible posters, don't get.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>In OP's case, there won't BE a shortfall. eBay's deal with RM/PO is not based on the size/weight of any one item. It is based on the AVERAGE size/weight of all the items posted.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>So if a few, even say 10%, weigh more than they really should do, according to the label, it really doesn't matter. All the others will bring that average back down to something within the terms of their agreement. Many suspect that is why they are so reluctant to exclude large letters from SD - they need the light packages to keep their average down.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>As long as your package doesn't exceed the maximum weight and dimensions for the courier (RM or Evri), in which case the package will be excluded from SD anyway, there will be no problem.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Please, stop inventing convoluted scenarios. eBay may muck this up, but they don't seem to have done so yet. The few complaints about this sort of situation have arisen from either the PO failing to follow instructions from their bosses, or individuals simply not understanding SD, the latter of which is OK, as that's what the boards are for.</P> Sat, 17 May 2025 18:46:18 GMT vinylscot 2025-05-17T18:46:18Z
