i,ve just googled are packlink doing e bay,s simple delivery and guess what it came up with...

Yes, eBay Simple Delivery is powered by Packlink, offering sellers a managed shipping service with prepaid labels, tracking, and potential for home pick-up ( i.ll reserve judgement on that ) and delivery.

Here's a more detailed breakdown:

eBay Simple Delivery:
This is a managed shipping program where eBay handles the shipping process, including providing prepaid labels, tracking, and potentially home pick-up and delivery.
Packlink's Role:
Packlink is the company that provides the shipping platform and services for eBay's Simple Delivery program.

so there you have it the cat is out of the bag.
e bay have an arrangement with packlink who are worse than evri and which e bay have decided to keep hidden in the background giving sellers the illusion its e bay who,s handling the postage but really e bay arent telling you everything... packlink labels and evri delivery thats a shocking thought .
SO now you know...any conspirocey theories whats lined up for us in Q4

This is why you don't trust AI..

The information you're seeing at the top of your google search for this is fully AI generated, and google's AI search is famously wrong more often than not!

Don't trust google anymore, at least not the AI generated result.

Packlink were only involved with the original pilot version of Simple Delivery, they are not involved going forward.

If Packlink were involved they would need to be listed in the Annex of the Simple Delivery Terms & Conditions as a third party as their Terms & Conditions would also apply. Only Royal Mail and Evri are listed.

Plus, all references to Packlink have been removed from the Simple Delivery help pages and the following section pretty much confirms that the postage rates have been negotiated with Royal Mail and Evri, not with Packlink:

How are delivery costs determined?

We’ve negotiated postage rates with Royal Mail and Evri to provide you and your buyers with competitive rates that include tracking for your item, as well as full item protection.
