Okay, so today I learned that despite selecting all 3 couriers in the back end using Simple Delivery, the buyer is not given the option to choose on the product page end during checkout? What's the point of choosing if eBay makes the selection for yo...

The search algorithm on eBay is a total nightmare if you are in the UK. Random results unrelated to your initial search show up in their hundreds, as well low value items from Chinese sellers. It is positively discouraging to buy from eBay, especiall...
