Yes that's been doing the rounds, but a number of people have reported issues with some POs not having 'read the memo'. Ebay were asking people who had parcels refused to phone them with the details of the PO.

Note this only applies to SD labels which clearly show 'marketplace' on them.

Is it possible to see at a glance if the parcels have changed to SD?  I am looking at mine and all show what it showed 2 weeks ago ie postage at £3.75 which is what I charged for small parcel.  Do I have to click on each one to see if it has changed to SD?   What exactly am I looking for to see if it has changed to SD?

The price of postage will be different. In my case for a £3.75 parcel i think it had changed to £2.72. Having said that when I went back into my new listings this morning I was able to change them from simple delivery back to custom postage

I listed one item today (small parcel) and I did not have the option of SD!  It looked like my normal options and I could charge £3.75 for small parcel.   Maybe they haven't reached me yet??

I thought I’d been switched across, but like you I’ve just listed something, parcel size, and didn’t even get the option of SD!

Hi,  I wonder if anyone can help?

I am trying to list a £5 item under 100g so chose advanced postage option (don't want to use SD).  There was a box to enter the postage amount.  Before I can enter £1.55 (buyer pays), the box disappears!   I have chosen the right postal service ie 2nd class large letter.  This has happened many times I tried to list the same item.  What am I overlooking?   I just want to list it for £5 plus £1.55 postage which I will pay for myself either using my own stamps or buy postage online from RM.

I wonder if it has to be only letter sized, not large letter?  But the list did include DVDs which wouldn't (or shouldn't) go as just a letter!

I can still list LLs with custom postage, in fact I’m not even offered SD, but this roll out is so sporadic it’s difficult to know what eBay mean by any of it.

So you can enter postage of say £1.55 for a large letter?

I have items which should go as a large letter for £1.55 but eBay Simple Delivery want to charge me £2.24 for them.
