How to sign up for foreign ebay ?

I want to sign up for ebay.nl but can't get past the registration sign up.
It wont accept a UK postcode, it just says its invalid.

I am sure people open ebay accounts for other ebays so how do they do it please ? There are goodies on the Dutch ebay I can't get on ebay.uk.

Anyone has experience of this or any ideas please ?

    You should be able to log in using your UK details without creating a whole new Dutch profile.

    Doesn't mean they'll post here of course ;)
    This is my opinion. There are many others like it but this is mine

    I am a professional ebay seller. I work hard at my job, I love my job, if you think it's silly that's your problem not mine. :p

    If you search for what you want on ebay.co.uk, after the list of items from the UK, there should be a list of items from International sellers. So if the Dutch selllers ship to the UK, then the items should be in there.

    Sometimes though its worth going on the country specific site and ask those that don't normally ship here A lot of people will I do that frequently with France and Australia
