Hi All,
When setting up a billing address it wont let you proceed without enter a state when filling in your cards details. As I'm in the UK i dont have a state - Can we get an option for added near the top for those outside the USA?

Just looking into the bulk uploader and will have quite a bit of stuff coming up

cheers,

Gareth

Instead of State you can fill in Province which could be changed to region at some point.

Sadly it looks like being a US seller is not going to work very well, it seems the conversion rate is fluctuating
so wildly I cant keep up with it, over the last week I have had to change it repeatedly its been as low as 17.00
and today its over 25.00 when converting from US to Euro

Bummer. I was wondering how it was going to work out for ya. Isn't there a way to make it run smoother? I guess just keep listing on GG and shipping internationally, not using the "pound" system.

Yes I will just run them from the US site for now and maybe when the economy settles down
I will try again. The Euro has really taken a beating over the last week, its going to take a
bite out of ebay I am sure as it was once a bargain for European buyes to buy from the US
not so much anymore

Oh on a similar note I was just reading somewhere from an independent survey that ebay searches are down 20% across the board this year from the same time in 2007, they are truly taking a hit :) I will see if I can find where I read it at

Here is a interesting link to an ebay forum about how the new search has decimated there sales :)
