Morning all,
just read on AuctionBytes that "eBay UK is holding a 10p Buy-It-Now listing day promotion on January 25, 2007"
Didn't I read on this board that some of the US sellers launch auction thru the Ebay UK site. I have never tried that ever. How different or difficult is it?
How many of the US sellers that frequent this board will take advantage of this UK listing day?

My one experiment worked out beautifully and I for one will do it again, at least with one item that is not heavy to ship and should get much more interest on the UK site. I use turbolister, very simple to pick any eBay site with that; not sure if vendio supports non-US though?

Morning mama!

Listing on ebay.co.uk is no more difficult than on ebay.com. However I usually get better prices and a higher sell through rate for my UK listings!

A few things to remember especially as it's Fixed Price listing day is to price your items in £ (GBP) and the same goes for your S&H charges to the UK. Convert them to £ (for your customer's convenience) using Yahoo's currency converter. To check recent UK prices of your items (it may vary significantly from their US price) search closed auctions to find their prices and success rates. Check on the USPS site for International postal charges then add in handling for filling in the customs forms, etc.
