I have items to relist on eBay that are larger than 61 x 46 x 46 cm which is now the maximum I can chose with the new simple postage thing. Can I not sell large items any more? Plus there is only 2 options RM and Evri, I mostly use them. But now and ...

Simple delivery updated July 25

Well it looks like the uninitiated fools at Ebay have just tried to force Simple Delivery on items that fit in regular standard letter post for items over £10 in price. That is a flagrant abuse of their monopoly position. it costs 85 pence to put pos...
