Combined postage:

This seller offers a combined postage discount of - $5. $10, etc... for 3-4 or more items

Obtain combined invoice for postage discount from seller option or could be worded better than that

I know exactly what you mean about the page jumping up and down. It happens because it is loading so many images. You just have to be patient until they have all downloaded before clicking on anything.

best thing ebay can do to help sellers is stop with all the changes.

why they seem to always mess with things that are not broke.

Not all users are aware that Friday is maintenance day in AU, so regular announcements of maintenance times - prominently displayed at log in, so users are aware that the platform may be glitchy at that time.

Since the subject of combined postage has come up in several posts, make the RECALCULATE button on the invoice when combining postage cost actually recalculate, rather than default to the original.

Gosh that would be nice, a function that has been misleading and stuffed for several years actually being rejigged to do as it promises .. bliss

Great, but I'd love to see those bidders that retract that often get slammed for their actions..........

a feature that should be available to sellers when listing is the ability to exclude buyers from certain Australian postcode ranges. This is because some items can not legally be sent to those regions for quarantine reasons e.g. plant materials to WA or TAS
