Has Custom Postage Now Gone ?

Please can someone offer some advice.

I've read that we can opt out of the Simple Delivery and still use Custom postage but I cant see the Custom Postage option anymore when adding a listing ?

I've tried this on new listings, revising a listing, listing a similar item, and on listings under £10.

Is there still a way of using Custom Postage or has it completely gone ?

Any advice appreciated.

Thanks.

Looks like eBay are forcing us to use Simple Delivery and forcing us into buying postage from eBay.  I am a stamp dealer and use Royal Mail stamps that I already have for postage so Custom Postage is what I want.

 

I wll investigate other ways of trading in the very near future,  goodbye eBay.

I did find custom postage had disappeared and I stopped selling low price
items (including stamps) but now it has re-appeared and I can select custom
postage at £1 again, and like you it enables me to use up old picture
stamps. So do try again in a few weeks and see if your custom postage box
appears again. It could be a glitch that is being resolved. Ebay send me
loads of useless messages about "promoting my items" etc etc but never send
out messages about problems their customers are experiencing or when they
are resolved. So you will just have to keep trying and see when your
problem gets solved, which I expect it will. Good luck

Many thanks for replying and hopefully it is temporary glitch one other respondent is so hacked off with it he is considering another way of selling his stamps.

Have you looked at the revised options for 'opting out' of simple delivery?
