Disappearance of the "Pickup point" option in listings: has something changed?
Summary: A participant noticed the disappearance of the "Pickup point" option in sale listings and asked whether there have been any updates or whether it is a technical issue. marioelegio pointed out that limits have been imposed on certain item categories, while ac.accessoriauto suggested using the "punto poste" network as an alternative. bladeoner5 expressed disappointment at the removal of this option in categories they’re interested in, asking for the previous features to be brought back on eBay.
Hello everyone! For some time now I’ve noticed that in listings for items for sale, the pickup point option no longer appears (for example: Fermopoint, locker, or local hub), neither among the shipping options you can set nor on the listing page itself.
Do you know if there have been any recent updates to the shipping rules, or if this is a temporary technical issue with the platform? Is anyone else experiencing the same thing or figured out how to reactivate the feature on their listings?
Thanks in advance to anyone who can give me some info!!

·3 weeks agoUnfortunately, I have the same problem. I’ve been buying in the "Vintage Toys" section for three years now, and I’ve almost always had the items sent to pickup points, simply by checking the option in the listing. At this point, I’ll give up on buying and turn to other platforms.

·3 weeks agoPractically all the categories I was interested in and for which I made many purchases have been removed from this option... The computer category, car and motorcycle parts category, etc...
But why? I no longer have a way to buy like this....
eBay please restore it to how it was before

·1 month agoHi, as you were told earlier, it hasn't exactly disappeared, but some categories have been excluded. So if you have items for sale and want to offer buyers the pickup option, you have a second option: use the Poste network. You need to go to the sales rules manager, add the entry "poste delivery standard - pickup points", and this way anyone who buys will have the option again. Of course, shipping can only be received at an affiliated Poste location in the area. If you don't set it up this way, customers will only see home delivery because quite a few categories are excluded ... For buyers, it's only possible if the seller has set this option ....
