Still Anti-Simple Delivery

Not sold anything since the changes in April, when I sold anything I sent by RM in a normal stamped addressed envelope with the correct postage.Always did it this way so have still got a draw full of postage stamps I purchased for it.Suppose one of t...

E bay changes My take

It is patently obvious that E bay were forced into making changes this week rather than having 'listened'.To change the fees at the lower end of the scale does seem to prove that the unwanted private sellers are in fact one of the larger dynamics for...

Buyer bypassing shipping rules by using third-party

I'm feeling quite uneasy about a watch I just sold for £240. The delivery details indicate the buyer is using GGBG, a third-party shipping company in Dartford, to forward the watch to Bulgaria. My listing was strictly for UK delivery, so even though ...

With the new changes coming in on promoted listings where you "pay if your promoted listing is clicked" and sells within 30 days, causing some debate, was interested to see if other sellers use promoted listings, what percentage do you set, what type...

Simple delivery - over estimated postage

All my slides are under the £10.00 limit and fit into a standard 1st. class letter, yet Ebay have changed the format to simple delivery 'Large Letter' showing £2.72 postage instead of £1.70. Any way of amending this error.

Simple delivery is awful

I list a few things on ebay occasionally, but this new simple delivery is just rubbish for sellers. It assumes that ebay actually know the size and weight of items And that everyone can easily get to Evri or other courier services easily. Why did the...
