I wouldn't put the following in correspondence to buyers ( nor in listings) as it contravenes ebay policy
"I have no control what happens once I post your goods, and I posted yours on the 19th October. "
Policy:
What not to do
You should not:
Say that you're not responsible for item delivery, or for ensuring that the item is delivered. For example, these statements aren't allowed:
'I'm not responsible for the item once it's been dropped in the mail'
'I'm not responsible for items lost in the post'
'Without insurance, I can't be responsible for items lost in the post'

The two statements do not mean the same thing, and can even be used in the same sentence without repeating the same sentiment - eg:
"I have no control over what happens to an item once it is posted and I won't accept responsibility / liablity if something does happen". X
"I have no control over what happens to an item once it is posted but I am happy to accept responsibility / liablity if something does happen". ✓
