Re: Spain and ecommerce - a positive trend
I sold a couple of things on ebay this week and the final price was very low because of the postage I have to charge.
And guess where one is going-Portugal.I forgot to not include Portugal on the listing and whats your bet it dosent get there.
But ebay has been a godsend for xmas shopping but still had about 5 items not turn up which is OK for the buyer-ebay will refund you but the poor seller will be out of pocket. In fact I had one item not turn up and the seller has posted another which still hasnt turned up.
Thats the postal system for you.
I really miss ebay and not just for the money-it was so much fun and I managed to accumulate about 8000 feedback.

Re: Spain and ecommerce - a positive trend
It's not all bad news regarding the Spanish economy, although you'd probably think so if you only read English media. Spanish link to ElPais article:

The IMF is claiming that from 2013 Spain will have an economic growth greater than that of Germany, France or Italy. All economic guesswork I suppose, but you don't get to hear about this in the UK press (or they hide it well).
