You can't and you don't need to. With ebay's Simple Delivery items are covered by ebay for up to £750. If item is lost or damaged in transit ebay refund the buyer and you keep the payment.

If the item is over £750, it won't be eligible for Simple Delivery.
Items under £750 are covered by Ebay against non-delivery or damage in transit, if you use Simple Delivery.
Otherwise, there is a 'work around' that you can find in the selling discussion forum to list with custom postage.

Thank you guys for quick response! I will try new way, as I always posted with Special Delivery all my items worth more than £200.
It would be nice to have an option, as sometimes buyers ask to post ASAP before they go to hols etc

So what happens when a seller wants to use Special Delivery to ensure that an item arrives the next day?

I think the quickest option available with Simple Delivery is RM Tracked 24 - if the seller has Royal Mail
enabled, and not just Evri.
If you wanted to use Special Delivery, you would have to 'ignore' the SD label, buy your own postage, then apply for a refund. Some sellers may prefer to do this, rather than risk some sort of unforeseen problem with SD.
