No other postage option other than eBay delivery powered by DPD its expensive and putting buyers off

I have been into my settings and looked at all postage options. All internation and business is swtiched off.

I cannot change the postage from; eBay delivery powered by DPD

 

eBay delivery powered by DPD. NO other option, I am not posting overseas. Its very expensive, I only ever use Royal Mail tracked unless its a large item. I don't want to use eBay delivery powered by DPD. Too expensive and puttiny buyers off.

Is it for a certain item you are trying to sell? Just that is what comes up for me when selling an item on authentication guarantee scheme, none of your current listings have DPD as far as I can see?

But I would post this with tracking via Royal Mail insured for up to £150 for a lot less money than DPD fixed postage, its way to expensive and putting people off..... I will sell them on Vinted.

I'm guessing you mean it is for an authenticated item? vinted doesnt authenticate so in theory you shouldnt get as much for them, the £8.95 that the buyer pays covers postage to the authentication and the actual authentication and then the postage from the centre to the buyer. With this you are also covered for any incorrect returns or charge backs. 

 

In short you will be lucky to get £100 for the same item on vinted than you can get on eBay and you will have less cover, both for yourself and the buyer. I say this not only as a seller but also a buyer of items.

Having the same awful issue, trying to force the authentication process which I have no interest in not so I have any interest in using DPD. No option to turn it off.

If an item meets the authentication threshold you have to use the service and you have to use DPD.
