Being sent to ebay.com

I'm trying to contact a seller who is UK based, but I have to click through a couple of screens and it then sends me to ebay.com.

I've tried different ways of going through to contact them but it sends me to a seller FAQ page and always ends up on the US site.

Is there any reason for this? Is there any way to contact them through ebay UK?

Thanks.

    I have had a returns opened recently, all have been dealt with etc, but eBay munched up a bit. Anyway, long story short, when I click on the link provided on the item, it takes me to german Ebay with everything written in German

    Looks like another glitch the need to sort then. Least going to US it's still in English lol. Although things work slightly different in different countries so it messing up with cases could possibly cause issues.
  • If it's still doing it try typing in the address bar changing the .com bit to .co.uk leaving the rest of it the same, sometimes works.

    I tried that yesterday and it didn't work. Did it today and it changed, although it was all exactly the same except the price wasn't in dollars.
  • I just got 4 emails about 1 item. 1 in English, 1 in French, 1 in Italian and 1 in Spanish o.O

    What is going on with ebay...???

    Me three! I do often buy from eBays all over Europe, so I thought that was the cause of it, but obviously not!
