Resolved! Simple Delivery

Is Simple Delivery mandatory now ? used to be able to select custom postage option but it’s not available now. Just tried listing and Simple Delivery is the only option for postage

Ebay are like headless chickens now

After the introduction of Buyer Prevention fees, I guess lots of sellers altered their prices to compensate, they've done it again and cocked up the system for everyone. We don't have the time or inclination to alter them again. I looked at listing a...

E bay changes My take

Disillusioned With Selling And Buying

THIS THREAD IS NOT JUST TO POST COMMENTS THAT ARE NOT FACT. I hope that there are now plenty of fed up private sellers and buyers who despise these new changes. Ebay used to be a fun place to buy and sell but recently thanks to the greed of the share...

Second Chance Offer

I had a buyer who paid, cancel the next day just before I posted. I want to approach the other bidder, but cannot find a way to email them. I have googled how to make a second chance offer. I followed the instructions and under actions, is not coming...

New postage policy seems a bit dodgy...

Please ebay, make August 6th our Independence Day

Dear ebay In Eve Williams’ update today, she said "I want to take a moment to highlight a few key updates shaped by your feedback”. If that is indeed the case, then will feedback also shape the policy on Simple Delivery? After all, SD has led to more...
