As someone of you knows, it´s imposiible to buy smurfs in Spain. I have bought smurfs in Internet stores for years, but no at e-bay...

A question: if I want to buy them...

- search with "smurf" in ebay.com?

- search with "schlumpf" in ebay.de?

- earch in ebay.be or in ebay.nl?

- the best way to search?


Thank you all the experienced buyers in ebay...

Bye from Spain....27 ºC

I search my local aussie ebay but I put in smur* as this shows up anything from smurf to smurfs to smurves (it happens sometimes!).

Sometimes I do a schlumpf search also from Aussie ebay. I have now refined that search to only include paypal auctions as its too hard for me to get Euros in cash and paypal is by far the easiest way to buy stuff!

I think there is a sticky somewhere (probably in the ebay section) which has some good tips for searching ebay.

Hiya Joaquín :hiya:

There is a sticky thread with a few tips here:

There are so many different Ebay sites these days it is a very time consuming job to get through them all. My personal tips would be to try and find the different smurf sections for now as it is easier than remembering all the different translations. Here are a few:

USA (These also pick up other countries)

http://toys.listings.ebay.com/TV-Movie- ... ngItemList

Germany
http://sammeln.listings.ebay.de/Figuren ... ngItemList

Belgium
http://speelgoed-modelbouw.listings.ben ... ngItemList

France
http://jouets-figurine.listings.ebay.fr ... ngItemList

Italy
http://collezionismo.listings.ebay.it/P ... ngItemList

The Netherlands
http://verzamelen.listings.ebay.nl/Popp ... ngItemList

UK
http://toys.listings.ebay.co.uk/Action- ... ngItemList

Australia
http://toys.listings.ebay.com.au/Charac ... ngItemList

I am sure there are probably more catergories than this and other countries that I have missed but this should help a little. :D
