Tree, look in some of the non compulsory 'free P&P' categories - you will find some people listing inclusive P&P by choice!

"Tree, look in some of the non compulsory 'free P&P' categories - you will find some people listing inclusive P&P by choice! " Yes I know that some do it by choice (god knows why) but that is their choice, and it might suit their product. On books and LPs it is a non-starter for reasons already discussed in depth. Until this rule is reversed, selling of either books or vinyl is not an option...

Long term buyer on ebay, pretty new seller. The "spirit" of ebay seems to be changing. Where previously the organisation allowed the bidder to decide what consituted a fair price they would now seek to muddy the waters with the "free P&P" scam. There is no such thing as free P&P, it's at best a sly piece of marketing, at worst it's a lie. As a buyer (mostly of vinyl) I always appreciated the ...

#25,asking for postage in the listing is breaking the rules as its not allowed.surely you can understand that breaking the rules and cheating to get around the free postage rules is dishonest.

"...Where is the supposed dishonesty in that?..." You would not think that if you were in competition with these cheats. vinylshrine for shiny vinyl

#26 #27 Like clockwork. Besides which, the term 'free postage & packaging' is a misnomer in this instance and worthy of as much contempt from ebay sellers as can be mustered. it is only a shame we have the usual 4 or 5 sellers on here doing ebay's work for them.

The free postage "rule" is also a misnomer. From the news item, Ebay's own info. "Sellers should also remember free postage & packaging applies only to the first domestic P&P option. Further chargeable postage services can be offered as alternatives. Tips for media sellers: Free P&P only applies to the first domestic option – you can still offer further chargeable service options" I see that as positive...

Free postage on media items is not for the benefit of the buyer on E-bay, but a revenue spinner for E-Bay itself, as this puts up the cost to the seller. Like all big business they are looking after themselves and not the private buyer. I for one will not be selling or buying media items in the near future. What a pity E-bay seems to be more for business now than the little person just wanting to sell a few unwanted items. It takes ages now to...
