eBay gone to pot?

I was not happy about the enforced move to simple delivery but I much prefer it now. Cheaper postage and no need to write out address labels which is a massive plus due to my apalling handwriting.
 
I'd rather buy from Aliexpress these days. Very little hassle with buying new or used items.

I seem to get more trouble then not with Ebay sellers. Best offers being ignored or not accepted when within a few quid. Delays in posting and sub-standard parts.

Been looking at some headphones from Ali. Is there issues with customs/extra charges etc.

Has anyone exceeded the declared parcel weight? According to eBay you'll be charged the difference plus an admin fee.

I do it from time to time with UPS when shipping cases, will select the highest postage then 3 week later get a bill for a 'oversize' charge that usually is £4.99. Granted I haven't shipped a case since they swapped to the new delivery system.
 
Honestly anything I need amazon usually has it cheaper anyway...

I wanted a 19mm socket so I can remove the lock shield caps on my rads and adjust the flow into the radiator.

even with like 2.99 delivery on amazon it was 2-3 pound cheaper...

those are the kinda things that your supposed to buy on ebay for cheap as chips..., you know things that fit through the letterbox
