EXPRESS DELIVERY ADDED BY AMAZON
Have Amazon got a team of people thinking up continuous ways to put off independent sellers? First it was Account verification process renewal, then VTR then very recently UK based trading verification and 2 days after sorting that mess out now I`ve just gone to list some items and there is an automatic 24 delivery postage option which I cant remove!! When did they tell us about this and how can we possibly comply if we are selling on a part time basis from home? Any ideas on how I can remove this postage option? (In my Shipping options settings Express is still showing as `No`)

quite a few threads to this effect now. Assume it is a glitch but Amazon haven’t announced anything (which shouldn’t come as a shock frankly) no doubt the issue will be fixed and disappear as abruptly as it appeared.

Hello Sellers,
I found and reviewed the threads regarding this topic, as well as the screenshots provided by other sellers.
Here I am tagging the Sellers that wrote on the Forums regarding default express delivery option:
@Seller_nT7psArrIHc2I , @Seller_6awJL0SOReDyy, @Seller_FwDi7ESyrH7sh , @Seller_oZjFTHXLT4XwO
If there are other Sellers who experience the same, please comment on this thread with the below information.
I would need some more details to investigate it.
- Did you open a case with the Seller Support?
-If yes, please share the case ID in this thread.
-If not, please open the case, as it will be needed for the further check.
- Please check your Default Shipping option to see if Express Delivery is set to: No
- Any screenshots of your listing shipping settings or default shipping settings would be useful (remember to remove any personal data).
I am looking forward to your reply.
Regards,

This is still happening, tried listing a couple of CDs and it keeps defaulting to express shipping I can not edit it as the box is greyed out there is no way to edit it, so can not list anything new, this has been going on for at least 2 weeks now, why no fix or update. Edited to point out I’m a individual seller if that makes any difference.

Hi Book_Sales_are_Russ,
I may be trying to teach grandmothers how to suck eggs, but... and I'm sure this has been though of - but just in case...
When you Add Product Via Upload there is an Express Delivery UK box...
If this was accidentally (or even automatically) ticked it might have the effects you describe
In any case checking with an upload (which doesn't have to be completed) would allow you to ensure this box is not ticked, or if it IS ticked might allow you to untick it (and complete an unnecessary upload)
If this has already been thought of, or checked for, please accept my apologies, in advance
All Best

Yes. I had the £8.98 suddenly marked as main shipping price for no reason so I edited the listings & ticked the shipping options that I wanted and minutes later it's back to how it should be.

I can confirm that as of May 2024 this issue is still not resolved. Any items I add to my inventory automatically get Express Delivery UK added. The option is ticked _and_ greyed out so I cannot change it on an individual item-by-item basis.
My default shipping template has Express delivery set to 'No'
This is very annoying. This started happening a few months ago.
However, products in my inventory which I added prior to this issue appearing do not have the problem, i.e. they have Express delivery unchecked.
Any update from Amazon?
ps-- I am adding products using Catalogue -> Add Products --> type in the item name --> find it in Amazon's catalogue --> and then fill in the product price, shipping options etc manually)
