Thread: Finding items in your own country?

  1. #1

    Default Finding items in your own country?

    How do you find items that are listed from your own country?

    I am a new user from "the dark side" and this might have an obvious answer... but I haven't found it yet. Just browsing around i've found that a lot of the auctions I am interested in are listed from overseas and the postage to Australia is more than I'm willing to pay. I am also interested in bidding on seeds/plants etc. and there are customs issues with this sort of thing, so it would be much easier if I could find stuff that is already in Australia. How do I find these items without clicking on every listing to see the details?

    Thanks in advance.

    Thank you thehoneyant, but I'm already using that. http://au.ebid.net/ still lists every auction that's AVAILABLE to Australia... and at the moment I'm having a hard time finding the Aus. listings amongst the many UK and US listings.

    Maybe it's just that there aren't enough Australian sellers yet... but I would love to have a filter or search option to find them easier.

    The US site is us.ebid.net
    The Canadian is ca.ebid.net
    Aussie = au.ebid.net
    and Ireland = ie.ebid.net

    To find these and go directly to each site you can just type in ebid.tv and that shows you all of them.

    Hope that helps.

    Regards,
    Sean (Gottalot).

    LOL... ... I see what you mean now. I had a look myself and noticed that some sellers are listing in AU$ but they are actually from e.g. the UK
    Needs something simple like a country flag against the sellers name showing their originating country.
    Why not post this in the Website Suggestions & Glitches forum
    It's worth a try.

    I've posted it over if that's okay
