Hi all, apologies if this has already been mentioned but have noticed a few posts from people worried if they can still organise a parcel collection via Royal Mail. It looks like its fine once you have a postage label and just have to fill in a tracking number or postage ID.
Collection step 1 - Your items - Royal Mail Click & Drop | Send an item - Click. Save. We Collect
One thing Ive noticed is, if you just select Royal Mail for postage it can still offer a buyer standard 48 or express 24 hour postage. The higher express postage price might be worth taking into consideration when listing with free postage.

I think a few people have tried this but the problem is that not everyone has a printer and rely on Royal Mail "bring your label" and this is not an option if you didn't purchase your postage from Royal Mail. Also as the buyer now selects the postage it will probably be Evri they select as it will be cheaper in some cases. You can exclude Evri but by doing this your postage prices for the buyer will increase which may put them off buying.

Yeah, get that and agree the postage price may put a buyer off. Did start wondering if eBay could switch over to Evri even if it is switch off.
Not sure what the answer is to it all but will just sit back and see how it all pans out for now.
