23-Year eBay Seller Leaving Over Simple Delivery Policy

[pzjuls]

I've been using eBay as a private seller for over 23 years. This new Simple Delivery policy is the final straw. It strips away the flexibility and control we've always had, forces us to use services that often don't work for our area, and ties up payments until delivery is confirmed — even when we’ve done everything right.

I currently have over 50 active listings, and I will now be moving them to Vinted. I never thought I’d leave eBay after all these years, but this policy is anti-seller, especially for long-term, reliable users like me.

eBay: Please reconsider this change. At the very least, give private sellers the choice to use their own postage methods.

That's the first time I've ever heard anyone describe reading Terms & Conditions as "good fun"! 😁

Interesting! I didn't realise that the discount voucher doesn't impact the sale proceeds.

Private sellers the choice> Take it or leave eBay, I do believe 1000's have ditched ebay
