Multiple tracking numbers on single eBay order?
I haven't done personal sales for a while on eBay. I've sold multiple items to the same customer from a single eBay listing. It needs to be sent in 2 boxes and is going by RM Tracked 48 so I have 2 tracking numbers. Is it possible to add both tracking numbers to the order? Or do I just add one and then send the buyer the…

Bought item collection only - no response from seller to request for address
Eight days ago I won an auction for a collection only item. I paid immediately and ebay sent me the collection code to give to seller on collection. I sent a courtesy message to the seller a couple of hours later re arranging collection and giving a rough idea of the huge chunks of time (whole days) in the past week when I…

Has anyone ever sent a parcel with Royal Mail which has been rejected and returned for being overweight (when it's not overweight). Posted a RM 48 parcel on Monday, weighs just over 6kg but purchased the up to 10kg medium parcel on RM website, just went on to tracking today to check it's progress and it says: "Rejected…

Cheaper to send a package than a large letter via Royal Mail? [Tracked, Europe]
According to the latest Royal Mail prices, it is cheaper to tracked item to Europe as a package than it is to send it as a large letter. Seems a bit counter-intuitive to me but the facts speak for themselves: Online price guide (valid from 2 April 2024) (royalmail.com) The figures seem to match those of the Click and Drop…

Selling decades-long model railway magazine collection
Hi, my Dad was a lifelong steam railway enthusiast and after he passed away last year we’d love to sell his collections of model railway magazines, full sets, decades-long. No idea what value they might be but think best to sell than just give away. I’m looking for ideas on where we’d find potential buyers, whether eBay or…

Royal Mail Shipping via ebay. Benefits and how to pay? + tracking question.
hi. using tracked 48 as an example. it's the same cost (£3.29+16p to take to post office) if purchased via ebay or directly from RM. is there an actual benefit of buying through ebay? i assume the tracking auto populates rather than having to manually input the details? my main reason for this point is that it appears the…

Buyer requests shipping to an excluded location
I auctioned a camera on eBay. The winner of the auction wants me to quote for shipping overseas to an excluded country. I also put in the description "Shipping to UK only. Do not bid if you want this shipped elsewhere" The buyer also have zero feedback. They've also not yet paid. This sounds like the start of a scam to me.…

In January I had a collection only item that was collected in person and paid in cash. As it was cash we didn't bother with the collection code. It's still sitting in the sold items saying Buyer Paid- Send Now. How can I get rid of this or is doomed to be there for ever?

What is a proper way to sell a bicycle on eBay now?
I bought and sold 4 bikes on eBay in the past, the last time was in early 2020, just before Covid lockdowns started. I am assuming that nobody sane is likely to buy a bicycle without trying, so it has to be collection in person only. In old days the buyer would come up to the door, tried the bike on the street for a bit,…

Ebay fail to provide sign-in verification
Phoned ebad, Mexico & several US centres. Every time they agreed to change my landline verification details , which do not work thanks to ebay glitch, to my mobile details, but the wasters, who I was spending a few hundred quid a month with, fail to do anything. I`m left with the laborious effort of signing in as a guest.…

Using RM Tracked at the Post Office
I always try to use stamps on my parcels for various reasons, so I was a bit disappointed to see that the £50 insurance for RM Signed has been reduced to £20 in the latest price changes. Looking at the new RM price guide I see that they are now including RM Tracked 24 & 48 prices, which are a little more than the online…
