Selling on ebay.com

Encantador

I want to sell the same multiple item on ebay.co.uk, .com, and .com.au

I will work out the prices (Buy It Now) based on the exchange rate and relevant postage.

Are then any good reasons for or against selling on all three sites at the same time.

I expect most of the .com, .com.au sales to be via paypal. I assume that they pay in local currency and it is converted automatically into pounds by the time it reaches my account. Is this correct?

Each item will sell for approx £29.99 plus postage.

Any thoughts/suggestions welcome.

One tip when listing on other ebay sites, watch the charges. Ebay.com for instance charge for some things, like 10 day auctions, that are not chargeble as extras in the UK.

Also, paypal payments will be made in local currency and will stay that way. When you log into your paypal account you will have boxes showing your total balance in sterling, US$ and any other currencies. You can withdraw any of those currencies and they will be converted to sterling before they hit your bank account. However, you cannot total the three boxes, you have to withdraw each to your bank account seperately.

One other thing I found when selling on ebay.com was that buyers assumed I was in the State seven though I show as registered in the UK which meant they expected their items to turn up in a day or two. I also never found much difference listing on ebay.com rather than just listing on ebay.co.uk and making my items available worldwide.
