It does look like ebay are taking into account the christmas holidays with estimated delivery times.

My sales dropped off after I called them and they told me I should increase my handling time to account for it. I didn't change my handling time.

Hello Dylan,

Just got paid at 10:26 pm on 22 Dec for an item. Buyer lives in Perth and I am in Sydney. EBay estimates delivery time as follows.

 

Estimated delivery Wednesday, Dec 24, 2014 - Monday, Jan 5, 2015

 

This is a load of rubbish. If I post tomorrow in a Red box it will not be collected til 6pm. There is no way it will get to Perth overnight at this time of year. Australia Post is closed 25th, 26th, 27th, 28th, 29th (Picnic Day), 1st, 3rd, 4th giving only 23rd, 24th, 2nd and 5th to arrange delivery.

 

I did not  increase my handling time as I will affect my listings EBay Premium Service BUT I have put an extra Item Specific on my listings

 

Delivery over Christmas New Year:Please allow 30 days for delivery.

 

Best wishes

Robert
