Simple delivery - Double the cost of posting.

I am furious. Ebay have doubled my postage costs to buyers through so called 'Simple Delivery'. Example: Item under £9, weighing under 100grms large letter, they are charging buyers £2.70. I charge £1.55 Royal Mail. Ebay representatives tell me to se...

Tracked delivery

How do you charge a buyer for tracked delivery? There are no options to do this in 'Simple Delivery' and I can no longer select any advanced options.

Resolved! Redelivery cost

I mailed a package to a buyer which was delivered to him by Evri. The buyer claims that he found his package under his bush. It was open and the contents were missing. I know that the Royal Mail only leave packages that are tracked, or have to be sig...

The GSP is now working between the UK and USA , BUT only if the country of manufacture field is completed on the listing, if it is left blank then USA will not appear in the list of countries shipped to.

Simple Delivery ANYTHING BUT SIMPLE!!--make SD optional

Simple Delivery Option Vanished

Up until about a week ago (Last week of Feb 2025). New listings were very simple with regards to postage. Simply chose 'Simple Delivery' Yesterday 28th Feb 2025 when posting a new item, there is no simple delivery option. It wants me to choose the de...

Resolved! Ebay stop ramming Simple Delivery down our throats! If we aren't interested stop forcing it!

So I ended all my listings. Disabled Simple Delivery... and set them all to Custom Delivery. I dont own a smartphone, I dont wish to use a QR code, I dont own a printer. I write my envelopes and take them in person to my local village post office. Au...

Resolved! Simple Delivery rip-off

Simple Delivery is now the default setting but it is possible to opt out of Simple Delivery by selecting "Switch to Advance Options". Why is Ebay pushing this? Simple, Ebay gets a discount on the postage and creams off some of the cost the buyer pays...
