Could'nt agree more. I have been getting mentions in my eBay feedback about just how quick items have arrived over strike period !

Good news though.

I started sending my ebay items that said 2nd class post as 1st class post. Not only did they arrive in reasonable time, but I got amazing feedback - worth every extra penny IMO.
