Quick Ebay question - what's postage like to the UK and Europe at the moment?

[tectonicplates]

I used to make my Ebay listings available to EU countries, but during the lockdown I changed them to UK only as the post was getting so delayed that I didn't want to get into trouble for late delivery or have people waiting ages for an item.

I use Royal Mail, not couriers. What's the situation like at the moment with posting to EU countries - is it arriving on time?

My post is arriving fine but I know it's been different in different areas.

Have a look at global shipping program with Ebay. You send your parcel to a uk distribution point, they send it on to your buyer. You are protected against INR and late delivery (as it arrived safely in the uk centre and Ebay take responsibility from then on)

I haven't used it myself but I know other Ebay sellers use it quite a lot.

I'm totally put off using the GSP as I've heard so many reviews. I usually send everything by "normal" post, tracked when necessary. So I was just enquiring as to the timing of normal air mail to EU countries at the moment.

Bad reviews, that should've said.

I ordered something from eBay UK about a month ago. It arrived in Ireland within a few days so no longer than usual. There are no delays in Ireland but obviously other European countries might be different.
