OK. Simple delivery will override your domestic postage policy. It's here

[objects-of-intrigue]

Just tried to list an item. Can't put free postage option. It's simple delivery or nothing. They're just making this even more complicated now.

I would rather do this every time than having to have simple delivery. I want to use who I want to use and when. I can't do QR codes and don't have a printer!!

They plan to enforce simple delivery, so they are not going to allow a custom option.

I found this worked for me , I'm using a laptop and Chrome, no idea if it works on apps or mobile browser.

If confronted with a current  compulsory Simple Delivery, no other option,  in the Postage section click on Collection, then go back and click on Postage Only,  custom option then appears and you cans elect the service and charge you wish to use.

I'm finding this is happening as well, seems like a bug, would you be able to report this please dave@ebay kat@ebay marco@ebay

As far as I can see it's happening when you do sell similar from a recent listing where you have already opted out of simple delivery. So doing sell similar from an old listing (pre simple delivery) I see this:

Doing sell similar from a listing where I have previously chosen custom postage I see this with no 'switch to advanced options'. I have to click 'collection only' or 'freight only' and then back to postage at which point it shows me the postage service / price set on the original listing and the option to change to simple delivery

Yes, I found this when I was restarting a few ended auctions last night - there were a mix of things unchanged (not eligible for SD), things with the line below the new postage info for "Switch to advanced options", which was a straightforward click-through to relist as previous postage, and things without that line.  I skipped the last ones and went back to them to re-investigate.  As I began with a heavy coat I needed a higher charge for, I clicked on the box for size/weight entry and found if I clicked for larger item it took me to a button for Custom Postage again, so I used the same option for the smaller items, which worked.  I could not figure out how come some things had the easy-click link and others did not, there seemed to be no logic about how it was distributed.  However, I managed to do what I needed in the end - but yet more faff added to the listing process by eBay.  Vinted is a pleasure in comparison.  And I've sold virtually nothing here since BPF came in (one collector's item book).  This platform is killing its own business IMO.

I took everything off then put it back on and have sold a few things took ages to sort refunding postage on things, one person asked could i combine before buying so i had to take it all off then list as one lot. Am not going to list anything new i can't believe that people are still trying
