Been trying to search for RC parts on ebay and I tend to go to options and choose "Available to all locations" and click search.

However, when the results come up I don't get any of the overseas sellers - Stella for instance doesn't come up. I've tried using a different browser and tried deleting the cache but its the same. Going to try a computer in work later in case its mine playing silly beggers.

Anyone else had this issue?

Mine's showing results listed "On eBay UK" so I guess that's what you need to look at changing;

I don't buy much from overseas on eBay any more, so no idea if this is a recent change

I always make in the location option that I have "worldwide" selected, otherwise I only get listing that specifically have options for Australia. I've not seen any changes in this to date.

I know its slightly off topic,but,
I normally use Ebay from other counties,ie Ebay.com for America,Ebay.co.uk for the UK etc
If you only use the worldwide option,you only get items that the seller sets a worldwide delivery price for (i believe!)
Most of the time (when using the American Ebay.com at least!) people just use the default setting and a polite email asking if they would consider shipping to ..(in my case the UK)...generally gets a favourable responce.
