It’s impossible to get special delivery even for my antique dolls I have
searched all over but every avenue is closed . They do not get it my dolls
are of high value evri is pits and only delivers cheap no chance . For gods
sake give us are courier services back because at the end of the day they
are mine everything thing I sell are mine and I should be allowed to send
them with all I like even horse and cart is better than SD

And if they are not still valid for postage then you can opt out of SD providing, when they are

£10 item price and under,
letter or large letter sized,
100g and under,

They are valid. They are brand new books of stamps.

 

I do occasional monitoring work for a postal company - I get paid in stamps and vouchers. Regardless of the category I choose, Simple Delivery seems to override any shipping option I set.

Changing the category to business office and industrial - packing and shipping - other shipping overrides simple delivery. Whether they'll get any views is another matter entirely!

Thank you. They are a bulk quantity of books of stamps. I've a buyer who watches my listings, he's bought from me via ebay a few times before. Hopefully he'll pick up my listing.

I don't buy off anyone whose only option is Evri.

Pets at Home slipped through the net last weekend because they don't name the courier in checkout. Delivery arrived over the course of three days, three smashed up boxed and the fourth one was so badly damaged they elected not to bother delivering it at all.

I mean, one of the boxes was delivered a day late because it required a "specialist courier owing to the size" - a 2kg parcel 50x40x30cm containing a plastic cat litter tray 🤣 You really couldn't make this stuff up - probably wouldn't fit in the boot of his Corsa.

You can list in any category using this method:

https://community.ebay.co.uk/t5/Seller-Central/Simple-Delivery/m-p/7890488#M745537

There is a risk you won't get the refund - so I would have too many refunds outstanding at once.

 

Or you could use the Oversized parcel method often mentioned on this forum. Clearly a packet of stamps is unlikely to be oversized. I've no idea if ebay would ever want to "discuss" you using it.

I meant "so I would not have too many refunds outstanding at once."

I list everything under " other courier 3-5 days " for everything. You can then use whatever service you need. The work around has been posted on here...

Simple delivery covers up to £750, assuming adequately packed.

"You'll be protected if the item is lost or damaged from the point the item is scanned into the carrier's delivery network and until it's marked as delivered"

If you continue to receive many Evri labels after deselecting them in your preferences I suggest you talk to customer services as to why that is. If they can't solve it, perhaps post a new thread on here with title - "I've deselected Evri from SD preferences but 4 of my last sales have give Evri labels" and hope that an ebay rep takes a look for you.

Sending new and unused postage stamps is akin to sending money or jewellery.

I have a nasty suspicious mind so I'm guessing that somewhere buried deep in the "terms and conditions"...........

? I've already told you they are prohibited from SD.

It's not buried https://www.ebay.co.uk/help/selling/posting-items/setting-postage-options/simple-delivery?id=5575#se...

If you don’t want to risk your items being damaged with evri  do the workaround that’s been posted over the forum many a time 

list at 800£ 

Chose large parcel 

then reduce the price 

https://community.ebay.co.uk/t5/Seller-Central/how-do-you-list-anything-bigger-than-61cm/m-p/7882449

I saw that and acknowledged it, thank you. But allowed or not, SD is the only option offered if you list them in the stamps category.

We had a email from eBay as of the 4th August money being paid for sales
after 24 hrs and buyer protection going down from 0.75 to 0.10 to allow
people to list items of small value .
This is because we are all shouting and some one is listening .
Next give us are couriers back .before all my friends in sellers and buyers
leave
Now with this new rules hopefully some will return I hope so

https://community.ebay.co.uk/t5/Seller-Central/how-do-you-list-anything-bigger-than-61cm/m-p/7882449

Because eBay are not  functioning properly in this area at the moment (teething problems it’s called) ie although they say small items under a tenner and under 100g  that fit in an envelope can go with your own postage they are very patchy and glitchy about what the system allows people to do

 

so use the above workaround exactly and leave your parcel choice at large 

 

You can charge anything for the postage and tick any postage service (even if it’s not technically right) then buy your postage outside eBay or use stamps 

unsure how you mark despatched though maybe someone else will fill in or amend what I got wrong 

 

You never know though ebay  might have it all fixed tomorrow 

 

 

 

 

Well tried to list this evening and everything I had has been taken away
.my 3to 5 day dispatch has gone down to 3 being rural and no courier shops
no nothing pain
Tried to get out of SD but all doors are locked
. Tried a members listing put up to £800 gave me my courier brill I thought
went in to lower price and that all changed back to SD
So all loop holes are closed could not get a 92cm long box longest 61cm no
matter where I clicked
I. Could get 20 kilo’s but only 61 long so where do my long boxes fit in ?
Evri nope RM nope .this is darn well ridiculous
It must be sizes excepted from Evri and RMail on eBay no other choices
.this is stupid lost for words now without eBay giving me my buyers details
I can only cancel the sale and get a few negs on the way

After putting in 800£ you have to chose large or extra large parcel 

ebay can’t change that I’m 99% sure 

even if you change category or price because if your parcel is large you can’t flipping cut it down 

 

@3942rick2005 

can you confirm please that once large is chosen that’s custom delivery set 

 

kat@ebay 

when is eBay going to sort this ridiculousness out 

ebay is not allowing large parcels to be listed and it’s being going on for at least a month 

Yes, it should be set.

amazonharvey has been told several times to follow the workaround exactly but it is obvious from the above that he is missing bits out!

 

"Tried a members listing put up to £800 gave me my courier brill I thought
went in to lower price and that all changed back to SD"

That says to me that he is not understanding that he must follow all the steps.
