Hi all
With last night's announcement, I'm thinking I should put my ebay shop on holiday? I sell prints, but I generally post from the PO as I always worry they will get crushed in the postbox.
I don't want to be out on what might be a non-essential journey (although it is an income).
What do you think?

I saw a list this morning of 'stores that can stay open' and the Post Office was definitely on that list!

Oh cool!
Maybe I'll just push out my delivery times a little and make less journeys.

Yeah that could be one solution

are you seeing less traffic to your ebay site? Less people buying things?

No. In fact March was my best month yet!

Can't go into my post office as they are don't see my post as essential, so bought a load of large letter stamps and sending from post box (Our PO won't take post anyway apart from parcels, they give you required stamps and make you post it yourself). Seems to be working so far.

I think a lot of sellers are doing well at the moment with people indoors all day with nothing to do. I know I have been pondering buying all sorts of things, but so far tried to resist the temptation!
