Listing my first ebay item and need to know about postage.

https://secure.friday-ad.co.uk/Paa2/AdManagement.aspx?utm_source=email&utm_medium=PAA&utm_campaign=Your%2Bad%2Bis%2Bnow%2Blive

Item above and weighs 332g for the pair.

So is this done on weight because it's quite an awkward shape...

would prefer signed for so there is some kind of record they have arrived. Thank you.

    Make sure you're within the size restrictions.

    Any parcel must also be less than 120cm on any side and a maximum combined length and circumference of 225cm.

    ok thanks, tbh the buyer will be paying for it so when i say economical i just mean reasonable enough not to put people off.

    The important thing is that they are reliable, what couriers do other ebayers use? Roughly how much would it be if i took it to the post office?

    Changed the title to reflect that.

    Also be careful that you use a service that protects you in case of loss or damage as a seller it is up to,you to ensure buyer gets goods in a good condition and you would be liable for loss or damage.
