some experience
I had an hour long discussion regarding this with folks at ebay.com and I can tell you it's one of the things that really drives me crazy about ebay. com and Here's what they said:
1) Ebay.com is supposedly the site that all other country links default to. If you visit eBay.com you will see listings by people from the UK, AU and most English speaking countries (including I guess Hong Kong) where the listings placed in those countries show up with the US placed listings in the order they were placed.
2) However, if I have a frame that I am almost sure will be purchased by someone overseas and I list it on eBay.com...it shows up at the bottom of the page in all other countries. This past yr I shipped over 50 frames and probably another 30 parts mostly to countries in Europe.
3) Bottom line is that those of us (mostly in the US) get screwed because our listings don't get as mush exposure for the buck as the UK, AU and Hong Kong listings get on ebay.com
4) I actually found that I got more bang for my buck by signing on to eBay.uk or eBay.de and placing my listings there. The problem is the exchange rate on funds screwed me over big time regarding the dollars I netted on sales because eBay hence PayPal charge way to much when the payment conversion is made. The love screwing their best customers atmo.
I think those of us in the US need to find ourselves a good class action attorney because we are being slighted, screwed and taken advantage of compared to those that list in other English speaking countries around the globe and I have it on tape.

When you click on links to various merchants on this site and make a purchase, this can result in this site earning a commission. Affiliate programs and affiliations include, but are not limited to, the eBay Partner Network.
Going a bit off-topic but blimey - the day someone in the USA gets a worse deal than us in the UK is still a long way off I think.
Have you seen how much we have to pay for houses, petrol (gas), electronics, cars and yes, bike parts? Things have got a bit better with the exchange rate but for years it was a case of take away the $ sign and put a £ in front...

Beleive me the VRC brethren on the west side of the Atlantic are feeling your former pains with wicked bad exchange rates, higher fuel and energy costs which are all leading to higher prices on everything.
