Simple Delivery fallout.

Has anyone had a failed RM collection & a 30p refund??
This happened to me last week & I ended up taking it to the PO instead. I know 30p isn't going to break the bank but out of principle I feel RM should be brought up on every failed delivery now they are charging (only for eBay parcels as still free v...
Resolved! Making an offer to a buyer
I thought I'd try making an offer to a buyer to see how it works. The item price is £5.53 plus BPF = £6.00 I want to make an offer to a buyer so that they see £5.60 (just over 6% off). Am I right in thinking that I would send the offer as £5.14 and e...
This is a good example of why any metrics E-Bay provide you should be treated with scepticism...
Today, I received this via E-Bay messages. 1. I've been a member for over 20 years, I'm not, never have been and have no interest in being a business account. 2. I think this is either the second or third time I've received this or very similar offer...
New postage policy seems a bit dodgy...
Anyone else find the ‘new’ postage process for sellers frustrating and a bit suspicious? Specifically: Ebay now require sellers to select the postage service during the listing and only allow them to use that postage service once the item has sold. T...

Just to add & clarify some of the various posts on the lack of an opt out on the Simple Delivery for low value items under £10 & 100g. As of Friday there doesn't seem to be any obvious way to avoid the Simple Delivery.I've tried a range of methods - ...
EBay - Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?
Back in the day Shakespeare would have said this about EBay... What would the Baird compare it to now? ... an inflatable dart board...
False and fraudulant advertising
Have others observed the number of false and fraudulant listings relating to 'rare and valuable coins'. Some being listed at hundreds of £s for coins that are hardly worth their face value. There used to be a prompt that would enable anyone to advise...
its not free to sell - false advertising and needs to be taken down.
"It’s now free to sell. What you earn, you keep. We removed fees for private sellers in all categories," Once you sell and item there is a fee applied. Its called a "Buyers Fee". We removed fees for private sellers means, there will be no fees for pr...

Receiving payment - rule change
I have received an email from Ebay stating that from Aug 6th I will now be paid for any sales 24 hrs after payment is recd from buyer. Am I reading this correctly? Can we spend those funds or transfer to bank account?So after all the fuss and palaver...
eBay changed my selected courier
Ok so I sold an item using "simple delivery" and I selected "Royal Mail" as the only option as its a fragile item. Yet when I come to print the label it's for "Evri". Apparently I was told the buyer can select a different courier from what I specifie...
Private sellers getting little interest from buyers?
What's going on with eBay? I have excess stuff - luckily most of it I've gotten rid of over the past couple of years, I still have a bit more to go, mix of used & new items.I've noticed though that some of my things get 0/low views and then when I ch...
