Postage is a minefield

People need to double check what their postage says when revising and double check it after it’s listed so you don’t get nasty surprises or people may be being interested but thinking sod that I ain’t paying for that postage 

 

i relisted an item I had on with small parcel postage 

EBay  changed it to medium parcel …I’m relisting so nothing should  be changed unless I decide to change it 

 

 

they recommended small parcel but had actually ticked the medium parcel option for me

NO

i was selling 4 napkin rings there’s no way on this earth I would ever have originally chosen medium parcel for that!! 

 

So be careful 

normally when relisting or sell similar I don’t check the postage, I assume it’s just replicated as before 

 

Oh by the way ebay your new layout with silly little up and down arrows that don’t make it clear what you’re actually clicking for is not an improvement

Yes, this is what it used to be like in the good old days, when you could trust your postage to be exactly the same as when you originally selected it. Your price, your size/weight, your carrier, your service, end of.

Yes

and I went into other unsold items and clicked on view original listing to check the postage (just to make sure I wasn’t going mad and I had actually thought 4 napkins rings were listed as a massive parcel 🙄 🤣) as it shows under the price when live ,  but it’s not there anymore


you know what it’s like when you think it’s YOU that has got it wrong but know that it wasn’t but someone’s making you think it was you lol

 

so the question is why eBay are changing small parcel listings to medium parcel ones at least on relisting 

 

addendum

error in my first post

i didn’t try to revise a listing I meant relist

I think you'd have to raise that with eBay's gaslighting department...
