Regarding the buyer knowing it's a courier and not AP, I'm not sure that would be a big deal. Just print it normally, fairly high up in the listing. Aslong as the item arrives, that's the main thing, as a buyer.



Actually, sending by courier can be a very major problem for some buyers.

I always avoid sellers who use a courier service unless it is completely unavoidable.

I have mobility problems and often cannot get to the door before a courier leaves.  It can be a problem to pick up from the courier depot as they are not open weekends and are a lot further away than my local PO.

 

A few months ago I missed a courier and was advised that they would leave my parcel at a newsagent FIVE suburbs away.  After much arguing I was able to get them to safe drop at my home the next day.

 

I regularly get medications sent from Queensland via courier but the sender has the option for me to give them an Authority to Leave which is fine by me, but I have never had an ebay seller who was prepared to do that.
