    Upper case always come before lower case when listed alphabetically.

    Correct name for eBid is ''eBid'' and not ''Ebid'' going by the logo.

    Well now I've learned something today. I don't think I ever knew the capital letter went first I would just have put in order by the letter.

    Just to put another cat amongst the pigeons... I don't know why the "eBid" is there on "stores" when it's missed off everything else.

    Most likely it is there as to differentiate 'tween here and members website-store.

    Pardon? Sorry, I don't understand what you're saying. What "members website-store"?

    I wasn't aware that it was as a grammatical convention - more that computers sort using the ASCII value of characters (as letters have no meaning to a computer - they work purely at a binary level).

    As capitals have ASCII values 65 to 90 and lower case letters have ASCII values 97 to 122, any text containing capitals will always come first in a computer sorted list.

    Their own store off-site... aka their own website.
