    Is there any way I can pay in Euro when shopping on eBay UK? It's annoying for small purchases to get hit with ERTF charges for example. On Amazon you can place your order in Euro and it's much easier to see how much you'll pay in total.

    Amazon charge extra for converting to euro, it still works out cheaper to pay in Sterling. If the amount is large (over £100, the difference could be a couple of euro).

    You can set your currency in eBay and Paypal. Choose euro. It will convert everything before you pay.

    Can you tell me where in eBay you can set the currency to Euro? I've had a look and can't find it to be honest. I've been paying in sterling for years so would love to finally get it sorted mate :)
