I can still charge international postage but this has stopped me listing things for a no-fee 99p and then it doesn't matter if they don't sell since basic postage in the UK is now part of the price. Now it'll cost me for everything I list even if it goes nowhere.
It also means that eBay are getting a bigger slice of final seller fees as postage is included in them now.
― Disco Stfu (Raw Patrick), Wednesday, 21 October 2009 01:56 (fourteen years ago) link
It's the same deal for CD's and DVD's now too. There's no point in offering postage discounts for multiple items any more because, well, you can't charge postage anyway! Which means less sales, and less advantage for the buyer too as you have to be paying full postage on everything as sellers have to include the p+p in their listing fees. Hopefully ebay will invest the extra profit into their customer service HAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Does anyone know how much the Italian Post service charges for approx 1 LP? There is a seller in Italy wanting 20 Euros to Canada (which is like $35 CDN). Isn't that ridiculously high? Somehow he has 100% feedback.
In my experience, LPs coming from France/Germany/Belgium, the postage paid is about 7-8 Euro for 1 LP.
― Michael Servetus, Sunday, 6 December 2009 04:14 (fourteen years ago) link
isn't the italian post notorious for losing packages? i feel like i've seen a lot of sellers who refuse to ship there.
― mizzell, Sunday, 6 December 2009 06:42 (fourteen years ago) link
Yeah, there is that, too. I've sent to Italy with no problems, but many packages seem to "disappear" or take months to arrive.
Damn...do I really want to pay $20 Euro in shipping? :/

weirdness: last summer i sent a record to england and it was the one and only time i ever made the mistake of sending something out before i got paid for it. either i forgot or it was one of those deals where it said *payment pending* from paypal instead of *payment sent*. i don't remember. but i felt like an idiot. and i e-mailed this person more than once saying HELLO i sent your record even though you didn't pay me. can you PAY me??? after a while, i gave up. last week my box and record got returned to me. undeliverable. from last summer! guy must have died or something. glad i didn't harrass his ghost too much. would have been like a bad version of a raymond carver story.
