Stores not appearing in catergory listings outside of your home site

I have confirmed this with support and am here to ask that this be implemented.

If you browse through categories, you only see store listings for the country in which you reside. For those of us that sell internationally, I am of the opinion that our stores should show in the categories for ALL sites to which we ship.

Please address this - this will make our reach to our international customers more fluid.

Thank you.

I would certainly like to see my Stores listed Internationally too, just like my items are seen internationally in every Country I ship to.
If overseas potential Buyers search via the current search lists my Stores won't be seen.
Overnight I sold a Brooch to a US Buyer. If she looks in the eBid Store list available to her she won't find me again.
I'm intrigued to know of what value the Store search lists are then? If they have a domicile value then surely they must have an international one too?
Also, if I want to look for a particular type of Store on eBid - eg Charity Stores (which my own are) - then I want to see ALL eBid's Charity Stores not just the ones in my own Country.

.
Edit: My overnight Buyer might not remember my user or Store name but she might remember Charity category.... to expect her to remember the Country and alter the URL to UK is asking a bit too much I think.
And for Newbies who are not yet familiar with the site & wanting (hopefully!) to return to me... then finding me via the ASL could be stretching it way too far!

I don't believe it would be any good for sellers and certainly not for eBid.

It wouldn't be beyond the realms of possibility, particularly with Jewellery, that a lot of sellers from China appear. So the US store list would have a front page entirely of Chinese stores instead of US stores.

At the moment your store appears on page 4 of the US stores jewellery list, if the changes you seek were to be implemented your store would probably sink to page 9 or lower. Which effectively would mean you would have no exposure even on your own country store list.

I think you make some hugely valid points there and perhaps your suggestion of this facility available for Buyers only would be great & serve to do the job:
