I try to use shops whenever possible but if I buy online I am now going to use eBay. Just as good but don't avoid paying fair tax.

You think eBay pays fair tax?

'EBay, a company that recorded UK revenues of $1.3bn (£980m) last year, according to the company’s US annual report, paid just £1.6m to the UK exchequer according to UK accounts filed at Companies House'

There's a lot of stolen and counterfeit good on eBay. I don't think that they are much better.

Yes you're right about eBay and taxes. Just looked it up. Only Amazon being hammered in the press . I see Germany are trying to take them both to task
Hope they do the same here.
