eBay PhilippinesGood news to all Filipinos who are Philippine residents. EBay Philippines is now available to us. I registered today at eBay Philippines after reading the article written by Erwin Lemuel Oliva of INQ7.net, entitled eBay mum about plans in the Philippines:

"Over 125 million registered users are now trading about 34 million items through the website. In the third quarter of 2004, the website recorded an estimated 8.3 billion dollars' worth of transactions."

"eBay has presence in nine Southeast Asian countries, namely South Korea, Singapore, Hong Kong, Australia, New Zealand, Taiwan, China, India and Philippines."

"Frederic de Bure, managing director of eBay Hong Kong, Singapore and the Philippines, said eBay.ph is currently a "free" service that allows Filipinos to trade any products online. It currently has not identified any payment scheme that can be used by Filipinos who want to trade through the website."

As I browsed through eBay.ph pages, I found out that many Filipinos are already registered with them but they had difficulty claiming their stuffs because of payment issue using PayPal. PayPal, an eBay company, is a global leader in online payments. It is currently available to 45 countries only and unfortunately, the Philippines is not a member yet.

Anyway, Erwin Lemuel Oliva mentioned a planned meeting of an eBay official with Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, I shall wait then what this eBay can do to my BlogShares auctions.

butterfly Let me know you were here, your thoughts are welcome!

Hi there.
is nice to see the philippines joined the e-bay. I'm enjoying ebay, for about 5 years now here in australia. At this moment my webpage is created, and I'm just about to become ,,affiliate,, for e-bay. The reason why I'm so interested in e-bay phil. is becouse I married a a girl from dumaguete, and there are so many underpriviledged relatives there. My aim is to make it possible for the filipine people to earn some money on the internet, by promoting some products worldwide. At this stage I belive that it is possible even from a internet cafe. If anyone has experience already , please lets talk about it. Best regards, and best wishes from australia. God Bless
