About to start selling on eBay

NoughtNought Registered User regular
I'm about to start selling off some of my 40k miniatures, and ran into a problem with my eBay account.

It was made on the .com site some years ago, and when I try and start an auction it assumes that I'm in the US. This is a problem for two reasons. One, I want to list the auction in euro since my paypal account is in euro and I don't want to have to pay for conversion twice. Two, since I have to write a shipping charge, I have to be able to say that the point of origin is Denmark.

Anyone know if there is a way to convert my account to a European one? Or do I have to create a new account?

    You should be able to do this but it is a "two step" process in a way.

    1) Go to "My eBay" -> "Account" -> "Addresses", make sure "Registered Address", "Postage Address", and "Payment Address" are all correct for your place in Denmark.

    2) Once the addresses are all correct and saved, you can change your currency through this link (https://arbd.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?SBCChooseCurrency

    If you don't want to follow a random link someone sent you you can just search for "Switch Billing Currency" on the main eBay help pages. That will let you change your account currency, and if your account address is Denmark then Euro should become an option. NOTE: you can only do this once every 12 months though.
