Simple Delivery

Is Simple Delivery mandatory now ? used to be able to select custom postage option but it’s not available now. Just tried listing and Simple Delivery is the only option for postage

Re: Simple Delivery

My understanding of Simple Delivery is that eBay cover you with a no quibbles policy if a parcel goes “astray”.

I am home seller clearing out my stuff randomly (my nieces will certainly not want a lot of my stuff when I am gone) and like I said I had strong initial reservations and I did post a negative review early on but now I am used to the change and so far so good. Admittedly it does take a bit of getting your head around having to deal with the weird looking way Simple Delivery is presented because I think people like me and you were just very happy with the old way and I do
wish it had not changed but so far for me using only the Royal Mail option seems to work well insofar as I have had no problems yet. I wouldn’t use Evri either even though our local Evri delivery person is fab but I think she is one of a kind for that company. Persevere - I tried Vinted but went back to eBay as easier on a laptop Just saying…. And the Royal Mail will still collect.

Re: Simple Delivery

I live a stressful life, I have to make my life simpler not over complicated I have matters I am required to focus, so sell a second hand items to clear space, must be simple and mindless, I get anxia when I send something and the outcome is uncertain, like when someone else mind about my stuff, if you want something done good, you have to make it youtself, cause nobody would care less, that's the truth, so sending by Simple Delivery does not help me, and equals to have to wait or send something by Evri, same bad experience I am happy to avoid again, so I just let my stuff sit there I sell it elsewhere, there is not only Ebay, and if I can't I just donate it, I don't leave any mess around if I am gone. Plus it might help someone the same.

It is just like Vinted now, same rubbish, which I hate and I refused to put all my items on there, I gave priority to sales here rather then them, now it is the same, I just avoid it.

I also have a huge problem as buyer, since I will never ask something to be delivered again to me by Evri, so I have to pay on Ebay more then when I buy elsewhere at the correct Royal Mail price, and Simple Delivery maybe is the reasons why I can't find anymore so many private sellers here in my search. I use the filter, and less and less stuff not from a shop appears, I wondered why, I guess this is the reason. I guess Ebay had its gold days, I was so happy when they passed the fee to the buyer, and i was happy to pay it when I was buying. But with Simple Delivery they sunked the second hand market. I am here since 2009 and I never was bothered too much from their changes, now I don't see anymore why my friends should come here first. I also doubt I could be a business someday, so I just find another platform, after this mess, the first one offering me freedom to post it has my stuff on it.  They just could leave the choice to the sellers.
