Keep Simple Delivery for those that want to use it
BUT
Allow others an alternative and opportunity to do what is best for them …
Print your own address label or hand write address details.
Use box, Jiffy bag, envelope etc.
Take along to local Post Office Outlet for despatch or use postage stamps and drop into a convenient post box.
Honestly, it’s not that difficult !!

I doubt there is any Private Seller who would disagree with any of the above you have written!
Unfortunately the ' One' who will disagree is eBay 😪
Simple Delivery is here to stay, being mandatory for all Private Sellers, no avoiding it!

The way to avoid it is really quite simple for me.
I just won't sell high value items on E-Bay any longer, but will find an alternate way to sell them.
Shipping high value electronics in the UK by any method other than RMSD is a guaranteed path to financial loss and stress, so I just won't do it if E-Bay won't let me.

but no profit in that for them so will not happen!

After all they all so want to control the international delivery system that is why GSP was invented. The only problem is the cost to the buyer , most custom forms are done online when you buy your postage online . What eBay also forget is the buyer has to pay a delivery fee to get it the GSP place to ship it which means they are paying twice .
