I go searching for ALDTR 160 ( it is a PVR to record tv)

and midway through the search results I get this:


Item number: 280413436559

2C4VP House in Colorado United States Property For Sale
5854 WOODCLIFFE DR., WINDSOR Enjoy main... USD 350,000





To be clear, I am searching on ebay.co.uk, and ebay decides to show me a house in COLORADO for sale. WTF. Rolling Eyes

More bent than Uri Geller's spoon collection.

Regardless of my search term on ebay.co.uk, I suspect the number of completed USA property sales sold to ebay.co.uk users is erm... let me think... 0

... and don't forget to pay your buyer's PayPal fees (cased by currency exchange)

I suspect the number of completed USA property sales sold to ebay.com users is probably also 0, given the state of the US property market...
