First Class Travel - What's Hot, Undiscovered & Fun in Travel

Browse & Buy Before you Fly

August 20th 2006 23:10

Nothing quite beats the feeling, knowing that you have out smarted the system in some way or another. For a traveller these days, there are more ways to bag a bargain than arriving in a country just in time for the sales. If you get the know-how before you depart, you will find yourself with some extra cash at the end of the day.


Due to the nature of world’s currency’s and the way the economy works, you can buy more for you money in various parts of the world. So log onto eBay.com and get yourself a bargain. The key point here is to log on to a different countries eBay that has a weaker currency than your own. So if you live in the UK and are spending British Sterling, log on to something like eBay Canada, where the currency is a lot weaker and bid your way to the top. Give your hotel as your postal address and on arrival you will have a waiting package.

Check out eBay.com for participating countries.

Not a problem - I brought my Mac laptop while I was earning British Pounds. Bid on Ebay Canada and then had it sent to New York where I was going on holiday. Only cost me 400 pounds - it was selling in London for far more. Plus no need to pay any taxes on it. Just comes under the gray area...
