Hard to spot/find the aussie sellers on here now

Lol, i was just doing a search in   Stamps > Postal History......


 


53,135 listings in that one category...


 


when I clicked AUSTRALIA ONLY ....109 listings


 


hmmm I wonder what chance the Australian seller has of being found among all that if a lot of Australian buyers don't know they can isolate the rest of the world to see what is on offer locally by clicking Australia Only .  ???


 


I hate to think what it is like in say a clothing section or handbags etc.

I forget after ELEVEN months.

 

But, as crikey said it has to do with the constitution, and eBay Australia have registered as a business in Australia (regardless of where Head Office is), and that part of their business is subject to Australian law.

 

Why do you think they try to 'incentivize' sellers here to offer 'free' postage, when in the US and UK (I believe) they just charge FVF on postage anyway? Maybe because they don't provide a postage service and Australian law prevents them from charging a commission on a service they don't provide.

 

For example.

 

i have no issues with them confirming to the ATO what I already have told the ATO. And that is a requirement the ATO (an Australian Government department) has imposed on them.
