Simple Delivery Update (ie eBay are going to make it even WORSE!)
Today I had a message from eBay informing me that there was going to be some “Changes to some of your listings”. They went on to tell me that “Starting 26 Dec, we’ll begin updating eligible live listings to Simple Delivery.” As I understand it curren...
