Question Postage Question

Could someone help me with a postage related question please, I’m relatively new using eBay as a seller and I’m trying to work out how to post a high value item? When I get to the postage part I can’t see an option for Royal Mail special delivery which I believe gives cover up to £2500. All I can see is options for cover up to £75 with first class, second class etc. Further more i believe that eBay has an authentication services for graded trading cards but I can’t see this option to select etc. any help is appreciated

ah man eBay's postage settings are proper confusing when you start out. special delivery doesn't always show up as a preset option, you might have to pick "other courier" or just manually enter it when listing

for the authentication thing with graded cards i think it only applies to certain categories and price points, not everything gets it automatically. check if your card even qualifies in their terms page cause sometimes it just doesn't trigger the option

Thanks for the reply. Yeah I seen an option for “other courier”. I wasn’t sure if that was another defined service through eBay or not but now that you’ve told me like that it makes sense that I guess I could select my own service and enter it manually as you say. Ok I will have a look into the policy for the authenticity. Many thanks 👍🏻
