Royal Mail 2nd-Class Letter – what’s changing and what isn’t
Royal Mail now has Ofcom’s approval to deliver 2nd Class Letters on alternate weekdays and will remove Saturday deliveries. However, Royal Mail has not set a go-live date, meaning as it stands currently your delivery estimates and seller metrics will...
What The Hell Is The International Fee For Private Sellers?
I admit I must have been living under a rock or something, but I was under the impression that when eBay 1) Removed fees for private sellers and 2) Brought in the "Buyer Protection Fee" to try and claw some of this back. But the justification was alw...
Ebay simple delivery opt out
So ebay have decided to force private sellers to use simple delivery for all listings.Previously you could select advanced options in postage and select your preferred postage method as before.Did ebay announce this to private sellers - did they .......
Ebays estimated delivery dates very misleading to buyers
I've seen countless posts on this already and I've already complained a few times but I want to make another post so they know the issue has not gone away! Its almost time for the Bank Holiday weekend and my orders being dispatched with Royal Mail 48...
Simple delivery glitch
Went to print off a label for a small parcel. It is not a small parcel label but standard delivery which is not the same. It cost large letter tracked amount and not small parcel tracked. I have been on the phone for thirty minutes trying to convince...
indecisive buyer cancelling and repurchasing
Did any of you come across a buyer who got interested in your items, sent you offers then cancelled the purchases on the next day and decided to repurchase the same items? I checked his feedback and another seller faced the same situation with him - ...
After 26 years it's GOODBYE eBay - Simple Delivery SUCKS!
Well after 26 years of loving eBay, telling all my friends & customers about it & buying & selling all sorts over the years (currently mine & my late Father's auto & music collections), it looks like today is goodbye eBay! - I have just spent 3hrs ph...
Simple Delivery Nightmare
This is more of an experience piece rather than a question or something I need support with- I have a handful of listings on the site and one sold yesterday that I hadn't revised so on the listing it still displayed the standard price for a small RM ...
Resolved! Simple Delivery more expensive for letters & large letters
With custom postage being rolled out and eventually the only option, I am a little confused and trying to clarify something please. If I am posting something of large letter size, less than 100 grams and low value - a DVD in it's case for example, I ...

Simple Delivery
Another complaint & complete farce with Simply Delivery. Been a member for nearly 20yrs, I’ve never been the most active of sellers or prominent but I’ve had enough. I have now ended any/all active Iistings & will never sell again on eBay whilst this...
Account restrictions - valid ID ridiculousness
Just been told, after a number of requests for valid ID, that my account has been restricted. I uploaded my (out of date) passport and heard NOTHING from ebay, and now this? I don't have an in date passport, nor drive, or have a national ID card. Spo...
Simple Delivery - Click & Collect only available with Evri?
With Simple Delivery is it still possible to do the old style Click & Collect from branches of Argos, etc with an eCP number?Or is it only supposed to work if you have Evri enabled and to collect from Evri shops?
China
Another forwarder scam. Had this a few years ago, item sold and then I looked up the address. Discovered it was near where I grew up and discovered they were using a forwarding company. But this forwarding company no longer existed at the address. Th...
Does anyone know how to set the label size under Simple Delivery?
Does anyone know how to set the label size under Simple Delivery? I have made my first (possibly last) sale using Simple Delivery. All seemed to go well except for printing a label, it comes as one of four on an A4 sheet and prints a quarter of the e...
Bye bye Ebay
Today I am removing all my listings from Ebay - my last two sales have been disastrous - the sellers have been refunded for items that they have received. In one case I was in contact with the buyer who told me that there was no way he could tell Eba...
