I think the basket still works on some items (It didn't when I tried to buy a couple of things from the same seller last week, but did when I tried it shortly before that). However private sellers can't send invoices and you can't change the SD prices at all. 

I recently put a bundle of widgets up on separate listings , a repeat buyer of this particular vintage item asked me about combining for SD as they could see no way of doing it, in the end I had to change the listing they asked on (thereby avoiding ending a listing with a question about postage on it) to a bulk one, adding in all the items they wanted. I then ended the other listings, and they bought in one go with one SD cost and one transaction. It took a bit of effort, and as I mentioned, I was careful not to end the listing with the question on it, but to convert it to the bulk sale. It was done about 10 days ago, and I have escaped any warning about dealing outside of ebay, so hopefully it is a work round.

Is it still possible to use the basket to consolidate postage on more than 1 item?

 

Or can we only sell 1 item at a time??

 

I have set my postage with additional items £0 but adding 2 items to the basket still adds double postage??

I have merged your 2 threads to avoid duplication.

I'll take that as a no then 👍. Seems like selling more than one item is now out of grasp of private sellers.

As I said i have managed to use a basket system with SD and on another the main SD in the past week someone reported that they received a combined order and one payment for SD items.

There is nothing at all to stop private sellers selling multiples, it might just not be possible to combine them unless you make up a separate listing like I did.
