Simple Delivery - Simply A Rip Off

[mangopear44]

The last two orders I sent out cost more on the compulsory eBay postage label than if I had used Evri's website myself. Makes a mockery of  'free to sell on eBay' and the claim that their postage rates are discounted. 

In the past, depending on the size/shape/weight of my parcel and which drop off I would be passing on a particular day, I would choose the best option between Royal Mail and Evri, and now it seems, perversely, that eBay are selecting the one which will cost me more and then overcharging.

I understand sellers that wanted a fair price for up to 2kg but for those parcels which are under 1kg, I am now paying eg £3.71 rather than £2.94. That's a tidy profit for eBay/Evri and a significant penalty for me.

It is absolutely outrageous. Impossible for small private sellers to sell lower value items now. Totally eating up already small margins.

Fully agree i have always as a seller paid for postage but lately the pre paid labels are costing nearly double to what i paid choosing my own delivery service. 

The last couple of sales i have lost money.
