Default is it worth paying extra to have items shown on ebay UK?

i know that it is only like $0.10 extra, but does it actually get more sales, or do people in the UK find it anyway on eBay.com?

Sorry if it sounds like i am being cheap

Yes your eligible to sell on our marketplace and vice-versa it will certainly boost your sale if the product is in demand.

I was always wondering about this as well. I seem to get sales from the UK though so are they seeing it the same or how does it actually show up for you UK folks with and without the extra option?

I sell in a niche if that matters.

I always choose international visability and sell on .de and .com as well as UK. Works for me

A larger market always gives a greater probability of more sales.

Go for it

I guess what I was getting at is that I already have the market since people are buying from me. I just want to know exactly how different is it for the UK folks when searching?

does it come up on a list at the bottom as international sales? or would my items be mixed into the regular UK listings (If I chose the extra fee for it)

What ways are different in the UK folks eyes. That would be what i need to know. Thanks

Yes.

we have the standard listing at the top from u.k sellers and the at the bottom international sellers, some seem to appear mixed in though for some category's, like the listings from the Chinese.

when i look for things to but, i do look at the other markets too, not just o.k

the thing that i have seemed to notice is that the international markets don't help themselves selling in the u.k because when i total up the price plus shipping it works out the same or very near, so i usually purchase from the u.k that coupled with the fact i will drive to there house if they try and rip me off makes it a better option.

the price must justify the extra waiting period

On eBay Canada, I can no longer find this option. Did they remove it, or does your listing automatically show up on eBay UK?

I noticed that it only shows up as an option in certain categories so maybe that is what is wrong with yours?? .
