Bidding in GBP on EBay USA

drluchaMember

I am new to this board so this may be a very dumb question.

I buy a lot of items from England and would like to snipe in GBP. If you bid on US EBay for something in GBP you must (example) bid GBP 18.00 or it will not take your bid.

I don't know how to fill in the bid amount using my auction sniper. Does it automatically bid in GBP if that is the currency used for that auction?

Thanks for any help you can give.

Bids are always in the currency of the auction. If the auction is in dollars you can only bid in dollars. If the auction is in pounds, you can only bid in pounds. This is just the way eBay works, so AuctionSniper only sends and needs the numbers, not the currency.
