I'm interested in selling in the European market. Being that there is such a diverse number of languages in this region is it possible to have a ebay listing in another language other than English to cater to foriegn markets?

I've bought off a few sellers that appear on the .au site and they are in a foreign language. Most of the time it gets automatically translated. I've also seen sellers have their page appear in one language, then have different flags to click on to get it to translate to that language.

I have seen listings like this one 361064432900 where they combine 2 languages in the title. That could be another option to gain attention from a required country too.
I had a German buyer a few months ago that couldn't speak a word of English, yet he still bought several of my items. I think a lot of people use Google Translate these days for foreign listings.
