Yes,Royal Mail started charging 30p per parcel for collections from today 01/05/2025

30p isn’t a massive deal breaker for parcels most of the time 

when they introduced pick ups I thought poor posties as if they haven’t got enough to do 

it is a bit of a deal if you have more than one parcel under SD because it won’t combine postage  and you have to send 3 different packages to same buyer that could go in one 

Should have been a notice somewhere though 

One for eBay help pages staff to update too

I’m going to have problems as I’m ill most days with a stroke migraine and damage to my back from a real job  years ago as can’t manage carrying anything heavy as it affects my breathing.

for the post I’ve 8 to send off which will now cost an extra £3.40 on top of eBay fees and postage. I won’t be able to afford eBay.
