Does anyone ever bother to browse some of the other eBays, besides the US eBay (ebay.com) ??? If you watch, you can usually find decent bargains, such as this one I won overnight:

Not a great picture, but the coin looks okay. Got it off the Belgian eBay, for less than US$3, delivered. Dealer takes PayPal, had a 100% feedback, not a rare coin that I have to worry about being faked, and even if the coin isn't in great shape, it still has over a ¼ oz. of silver in it.

I spend most of my time (and money) with the french and german ebay sites. Occasionally Australia and also Austria.

I've only used the UK one so far. Although i've seen many items of interest on the French and German ones.

I use mostly the german one, quite often austrian, french and sometimes british too. I've never bought anything from ebay.com

There are in fact people who buy from such sites and resell them on the main site and yet make profit. How interesting. hmmmmmmmm

I do my main searches on the US site, but I do go through many of the other national sites as well.
