Charlottechicken Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 Spotted this on Ebay the other day (sorry, didn't think to share ), I've got a few pairs of quality shoes to sell so will now do so on the next free listing day, and probably some kitchen ware too! Royal Mail must have really been losing out to change the size/pricing so soon after the big changes in April. Thanks for the detail, very handy!

soapdragon Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 I saw a poster in the PO this morning; must have cost them a fortune. Apparently they have had new leaflets printed too. Good news for E bayers; I feel a clear out coming on! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pearls007 Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 I've only just seen this thread. Because of the price rises I have switched to using a courier - for £4.60 they collect a parcel weighing up to 2kg and it has trackable proof of delivery - fabulous.

Ain't Nobody Here Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 I've just had to return a massive box to Amazon (I chose to use the PO rather than wait in for a courier). First of all they told me it was too big (it's a very small local PO) then worked out they could take it but it cost £22.36 . I can claim it back thankfully!
