    I don't think you can set it as a permanent feature, but of course you can filter that, I do it on almost all my searches (unless I'm ready to wait 3 weeks for an item..).

    No not as a permanent, but on the left side if you go down its there. I tick each time I am searching for something.
  • I am not sure the "from UK" thing is reliable. When I click and see the contact details of self-proclaimed UK seller, I always get an address of some bloke in China. Some middle-man must have opened an Ebay account in UK and linked to a bank account in UK, but that won't prevent goods being shipped from overseas and potentially be liable to VAT and/or customs.
  • Yes, and you also miss out on all those dodgey battery chargers and small electrical appliances that give that air of mystery every time you approach your house... will it be there or simply burnt down??? Live life on the edge... shop China ....

    Absolutely although on a side note I have noticed some sellers getting wise to this and a few items I have ordered (all nail things) are chinese sellers using a manchester address. I do however order from china a lot and have no problems but sometimes I want something quicker.
