On the listing page, the current price/bid will be posted in the currency of the country for which the auction is being run: this is the currency the bid your bid will be in, whether you bid manually or enter in Gixen.
Thus, if the current price/bid is displayed as AU $10.00, then any bid placed (manually or by Gixen) will be in Australian dollars.

If the seller gives you permission to bid in an email, I would recommend asking them to put you on their
Buyer Requirements Exemption List
. This will ensure that the system doesn't put any roadblocks in front of your bids. See eBay's help page explaining this at

(and send this link to your seller if they don't know what you're talking about).
Yes good assuming that the seller can read and understand English ;-)
... actually most of Europe is good at that, it's the lazy English (like me) that can't understand the rest of Europe :oops:
Otherwise you'll have to point them to the equivalent on their own site, and if you don't speak their language their site can be more troublesome to navigate that you might think... unfortuantely they are not even all laid out in exactly the same way :-(

Yes that would be very helpful, I imagine that in the case you tried it was due to the permissions granted by the seller.
If this does prove to be a problem then its one that Mario can fix... in that case I think he would find it useful not just to see a screenshot of the page but also the HTML that produced it (in Internet Explorer that is available via the View->Source menu option) so if you do see it, it might be useful to email that to Mario at
support@gixen.com
.
Of course Mario may well have found this previously and coded round it already so we really need to try one with Gixen doing the bidding before we actually know if there is any issue to be addressed at all.

Post subject: bidding on foreign auctions etc..
Thanks for all the reactions so far. I just tried again to bid on a foreign aution (which was a German only auction again (eBay.DE)) After I got a mail from the seller in which he gave 'permission' to bid from the Netherlands. I wanted to take a screenshot from the extra 'confirmation' page, but the strange thing was that didn't screen appear now. Maybe it didn't because of the permission of the seller?
I understand you guys living in the US don't often have this 'problem', but with the Netherlands being a small country, there's a larger supply in our neighbouring country Germany (which is roughly ten times the size of the Netherlands)
This week I will be sniping several items, I will let you know if there is a problem again, concerning this issue.
Once again, many thanks for the help!
