Heya, thought i would post this. It was on my EBay page

Royal Mail has announced that postal workers intend to go on strike within the following districts from Fri 24th July to Sat 25th July.

On Friday, industrial action is limited to the north London area.
On Saturday, industrial action will impact the following areas;
London (N, NW, SW, SE, E and selected W postcodes)
Stockport
Irvine

Buyers and sellers using Royal Mail services within these districts should be aware of potential delays in delivery of mail (only mail originating from or being delivered to these districts will be affected, all other UK mail would not be affected)

Best advice for eBay sellers is to notify customers that there will likely be delays to their purchases arriving. Expect a minimum of two to three days delay for mail in these districts although it may well take until the following week for services to resume to normal

In future we will announce only national strikes to members and we ask sellers to notify their buyers of local or regional strikes. This will avoid the confusion of multiple announcements to members
