https://community.ebay.co.uk/t5/Member-To-Member-Support/Postage-shipping-costs/m-p/8037755#M356121 <P>Good morning,</P><P>Has anyone else had the problem that I presently&nbsp; face with eBay.</P><P>I went to list a couple of vintage newspapers with a starting bid of .99p. They can achieve a final price of up to £5 it all depends.</P><P>When I went to the enter postal charges section to enter the postal charge, which should be about £3 - £3.50 I was unable to enter this manually and was faced with a message informing me that ordinary Post was not available for this category and that I had to send it by Evri at a minimum cost of £18. No way to override this to enter the price manually.</P><P>This item or similar items will never attract purchasers at those prices and where is the benefit for either the Seller or the Purchaser ? My family has been using eBay for many years and the ordinary Postal system generally works if the packaging is done properly.</P><P>I can see nowhere on the listing form the option to revert to ordinary post. Surely Evri should be an option for Buyers and/or Sellers and not dictated by eBay.</P><P>Has anyone else encountered this problem?</P><P>Thanks in advance.</P><P>Regards.</P> Mon, 25 May 2026 05:26:20 GMT oreve49 2026-05-25T05:26:20Z https://community.ebay.co.uk/t5/Member-To-Member-Support/Postage-shipping-costs/m-p/8037755#M356121 <P>Good morning,</P><P>Has anyone else had the problem that I presently&nbsp; face with eBay.</P><P>I went to list a couple of vintage newspapers with a starting bid of .99p.
