Fully agree -especially now I keep getting bounced to the US ebay and find I am looking at things thousands of kms away. Also Ebay itself does not seem to have much idea of distance. Was looking yesterday and it told me it was 5 kms from my postcode. Never heard of the place so looked it up on Sensis - 5 HOURS drive away !! Lost interest after that !! Have often had to contact seller to find out where in Melbourne - seems to be mainly new sellers - could put a box beside pickup only when they list and not go further until it has been filled in.
