Ebay and tracking numbers?

[pisquee]

10-20 items a day would be worth getting an OBA account with Royal Mail and using Click and Drop, for the amount you're sending it'd be worth getting a quote for Tracked Parcel Services too.
Using C&D with Ebay would automatically upload all the Large Letter tracking numbers, mark orders as despatched on Ebay, and print off your postage labels

Oh the sheer joy of trying to contact RM, filled out the online form, get an email
[FONT=&quot]if you do not have a Business Account and would like to speak to someone about opening an account please contact our Business Customer Services on 08457 950 950.

Dial said number, go through a number of press this that and the other number, hang on for 20mins (because my call is important to them) and then give up.

The stupid thing is they have listed all of the contact numbers I gave them on the online form, why oh why can someone from there not ring me, or are they just so big that they actually don't need anymore. So if anyone has a decent contact number for RM please share.[/FONT]

That seems fine - if you're sending over 1000 items a year, you can have an account, IIRC correctly, you were 4000-5000 units a year, which should get you a good quote for Tracked services too
