That is one of the issues, the wading is not that big a hassle, because if you
want to find what you're after, you have to wade a lot ;-). But yes that is
one of the issues.
The problem has been that auction postings will appear in the auction group,
then upon enquiry to the seller, some of us folk down here have been told
"Sorry I wont ship to Australia".
Which leads to another issue, sending things anywhere overseas from here means
$$$ on shipping. I guess what we're looking to do is to be able to offer items
for auctions to people within Australia to reduce the costs for everyone. I'm
assuming that if something doesn't get sold here first, then it would get
offered to the rest of the world, though it will be a higher cost to the buyer
due to the shipping.
Someone else may have more reasons to add to this..
