I think there’s a big need for MUCH more flexibility in setting postage prices tbh. For example, I can set a specific price for Ireland, Germany or France, but not for Italy, Spain or the Netherlands. Why on earth not? They need to add in customisable shipping fields IMHO.

Personally I don’t treat any part of the UK differently for carriage and that includes Highlands, Islands and Northern Ireland, they all pay the same although it may take them longer to get their goods due to the randomness of boat schedules in adverse weather conditions.

However I strongly agree that the Channel Islands should be treated seperately as they’re not even in the EU let alone the UK. They’re treated differently for both tax purposes and although Royal Mail deliver at UK rates couriers consider them an International destination. For eBay to lump them in with standard UK carriage rates is ludicrous, might as well treat the US as part of the UK, bout time it was fixed.
