To be fair, signed for 2nd class doesn't have tracking, it has proof of delivery.
They'd likely not go signed for 2nd though as (like your other seller claimed) they'd be too long for Royal Mail who have a 60cm max length. They'd need to go parcelforce 48 which is around £14 minimum.
Maybe try looking for a new set from a seller doing large quantities and offering free postage. They'll send them with Hermes or some shit courier but there's not much can go wrong with a Wingbar.

Picked up a set of old school DMR wingbars - the braced ones - for a couple of quid after the seller mistakenly listed them under roof racks. Advert claims they’d be posted second class signed for, but when I finally get a posted notification it says ‘no tracking’. Surprise surprise, a week and a bit passes and no package arrives. Contact seller and ask for tracking info, get a response ‘sent without tracking, open a claim and I’ll refund’. Cunt never sent them.
Wouldn’t mind but this is the second time I’ve had this with these bars. Previous seller gave me some BS line about them being too long to go in the post and when he finally did “find a courier” lo and behold they went missing in the post. Will be fun to see what happens next time I stumble across a set for sale. End of the world, probably.
