Simple delivery is awful

[jezzagold]

I list a few things on ebay occasionally, but this new simple delivery is just rubbish for sellers. It assumes that ebay actually know the size and weight of items And that everyone can easily get to Evri or other courier services easily. Why did they have to stop the seller from deciding how to post items? Put me right off bothering to use Ebay.

Simple Delivery may be as slow as second class but it is tracked which second class is not, and covers loss for more than £20.

Could you not set special delivery as the carrier in you settings when
listing? I am 99% sure you can if that's what you insist on using, in the
last 3 years I have used the tracked 48 service, there is also the 24 hour
service, in that time I have not had a single parcel delayed, lost or
damaged, I can get the exact figure but at any one time I have sent out
upwards of 400 parcels and around 40 in a single day more than once, the
value of individual parcels was upto £500

No - Special Delivery is not allowed under SD- only tracked 48 or 24

If I want to use Special Delivery it is unreasonable for EBAY to not
offer it. As it is when required I purchase Special Delivery from Royal
Mail direct and submit a claim for a refund of SD, which is mostly paid,
but not always

I have no time for simple delivery. Utterly inappropriate for the items I sell. How ebay think they can calculate the postage costs of a mixed order for old timetables and catalogues beats me. I have just started getting a pension. Maybe it is time to stop and park my feedback of 9000+ ?
