Simple Delivery .. How can I change a listing to include Express 24hr delivery

I have an item listed with the 'normal' Simple Delivery option, but a prospective buyer needs the item by Thursday and asks if I can change the postage to a 24hr service.

How is this done please .. I can't seem to find that option

    List it as normal then buyer can choose to upgrade the postage at checkout.

    Ps,
    Don't believe a buyer if they tell you its not working.
    A common scam is to get you to post the item yourself (they may even send you extra money for the postage) and bypass the Simple Delivery.

    As above, if buyer actually reads the invoice and chooses to click on the options they can upgrade the postage.

    OP here

    Thanks for the brilliant answers .. I was all set to remove 'Simple Delivery' and send using RM 24 hr service.

    I've actually just been to my local PO to get an idea of cost, but having seen your replies, I've said the postage can be changed at his end'

    thanks again

    I've heard nothing more from the 'buyer' despite replying to him over 2 hours ago ..so maybe it was a scam
