Do you mean Euros in cash? If so they can be exchanged for sterling at the post office, but the exchange rate is often not brilliant. If after exchanging the sterling you are left with is less than the auction price, ask buyer for the difference.

Cash? If so, work out whether she has sent you enough... then find the best rate at a travel agent or Post Office to get them exchanged.My TV is broken!
Edit: refunded £515 for TV 1.5 years out of warranty - thank you Sale of Goods Act! :j0 -
you should be able to change it in most banks and some post offices but you may be charged a fee so might end up with less than you should have received0
