Selling: Listing does not agree with my Delivery sections!

I select Postage or Collection, Simple Delivery, then the appropriate weight.  Lower down it states "Who Pays?   The buyer pays..."
List the item and it says Collection only.
Why?
All suggestions welcome.

All of your items show a delivery charge.

Have you listed the item you were having an issue with?

Thank you jckl1957. I appreciate your assistance.
Yes, all are now showing a Delivery charge.
Earlier though (despite selecting 'Collect or Post') a couple of items were listed as Collection only.

Another apparent anomaly is that some Active items listings state Buy it now + postage while others state Buy it now + postage (you pay), yet in the actual public listing both indicate a postage charge presumably to be paid by the purchaser. Both are auctions with Buy it Now options.

When first describing an item and clicking the List option, I generally get a red banner stating that there is an error in the Delivery information. I repeat the Collect+Post / Simple Delivery / and weight selection (not always the recommended one as the item is known to be heavier than the algorithm predicts) but on re-Listing the error message persists. Saving for later and immediately re-Listing the listing is generally successful though it appears as if the Delivery selections have been changed - in one case the weight had been reduced to a lower band (the one the algorithm suggested). Surely this risks later postage surcharges.

I lack confidence that the selections I have made and displayed to me before Listing will be the same on the actual Listing.

Clicking on How Simple Delivery works and getting this does not improve my confidence.
