An increasing number of sellers say they will combine postage, but after you buy, ebay will not let them combine postage.
It used to be so simple, Request an invoice & the postage would be adjusted by the seller manually - everyone is happy.
Now I cannot make multiple purchases from a single seller as ebay won't let them combine postage, even though they want too.
So the seller doesn't make money, I cannot buy, and ultimately ebay looses money in fees - what a shockingly bad business model.
If I was a shareholder in ebay I would vote out the CEO responsible for loosing so much money & creating so much bad will towards ebay.

I am one that has been forced into immediate payment. Which really sucks for my buyers wanting multiple items. Yes, eBay does make extra money because most sellers aren't going to go to the hassle of ringing eBay to get $1 worth of fees credited.
EBay are wanting all sellers to have "free" postage, which would completely eliminate that problem.
