Hi. Im wanting to buy items in the UK and have them sent to my family address in UK so that they can be sent all together to me where I am based in Australia.
I have an Australian ebay account but I would like to pay for the UK items out of my UK GBP account to make things simpler.
Can and how do I do this please.

I am not sure but you might have to go to ebay.co.uk and purchase items through there, I think your account is eBay wide because i registered in Australia but can login to ebay.com
Somebody else may have the answer tho
EDIT: you also need to set your delivery address to your families one.

Are you saying that you have separate PayPal accounts, with one showing GBP funds? If so, when you purchase, use that PayPal account. Make sure you change your address to the UK one in PayPal BEFORE you pay. You have the option of changing it after logging in. If the seller doesn't post internationally, then you'll need to change the address in your eBay account too, before buying.

If you have two accounts then you should be fine to use the UK one. Why not? If you have just one, you can create an alternative address (Your family's address) and choose that one for that purppose and then after change it back to the Australia one for purchases here.

It might be easier to have someone based in the UK make those purchases for you and you can send them the money through PP.
Just give them the item numbers of what you want.
