well. the main thing it shows is GBP and underneath the tiny label shows the price in US dollars. but if i order it, it either shows the shipping price, and product, and total cost in pounds or it says it doesn't ship it to the US Pd


 

@korod40,

 

If the item was priced in GBP, that means that the item was listed on eBay UK, and is probably located in the UK. If you want to buy it, you have to pay for it in the currency it was listed in, GBP. The price shown in USA $ is only approximate and is for your convenience only. You would have to pay more for the shipping because it is coming from another country, and you will also have to pay a bit more than the estimate because of conversion costs.

 

Also, it would have been made to be used in the UK. The UK electrical system uses 240 volts, while the electrical system in the USA uses 120 volts. Most electrical devices can only be used with one voltage or the other. Even if you use an adapter so you can physically plug a UK device into a USA socket, it won't work because it's only getting half as much voltage as it needs.

 

Sometimes, portable devices like hair dryers have a switch to change the input voltage so you can use an adapter, but I haven't seen this with computer monitors, or most other non-portable devices.

 

You should be looking for computer monitors that are being sold on eBay USA, in USA $, so you can expect to get products that were designed to be used in the USA.

If you're seeing the listing on ebay.co.uk you're on the UK site. If the listing states they don't ship to the US there's no way you can get around that. You need to go to www.ebay.com to access the US site. At the top of the home page there's a search bar. Use that to search for listings of the item you're looking for.

@korod40,

 

If you are using the app, and were directed to the U.K. site possibly by opening a listing from a U.K. seller and then searching through their other items. Each time you open the app after that the address bar will show ( http.... ebay.co.uk)   To get back to the U.S. site which you are on now, to search for what you want. Go to the upper right corner of this page where you see the avatar circle that is to the left of your username above. Click on it and select My ebay from the drop down list.  If you are redirected to the U.K. site, use your device's browser to login to ebay.com manually with your username and password.

 

Once you are on that page, use the Search for anything box, enter Triple Screen computer monitor in the search box.  Then select Computer/tablets & networking from the drop down list as the category.  Then click on the search button.

 

On the page that opens there will be additional search filters in the left hand column you can use to get more relevant results. You may want to select Laptop & desktop accessories, or pick a Mfr. or screen size. Each new page will give you more filters to refine your search.  look at the partial screen shot of the filters below.

There aren't a lot of all-inclusive triple monitors listed on eBay USA, that's true. But you won't be able to use UK monitors in the USA because of the incompatible voltage, so you shouldn't be thinking of buying any electrical device like that from the UK.

 

You can get triple monitor stands on eBay USA, though. You would have to buy the monitors separately, but either way you would have to assemble them once you got them, so that wouldn't be any different from buying an all-inclusive set.

The listing you've linked to states very clearly that it will ship to the US. Shipping to the US will be approx. $125. And you will have to convert your payment to GBP, because that's how the seller has chosen to be paid. So if you buy this you'll pay a total of GPB 257.11, plus your state's sales tax. The amount of USD that converts to will depend on the conversion rate at the time the payment processes and what additional fees your payment processor charges.

 

We can't magically find what you're looking for. We're not an eBay shopping service. If you can't find what you're looking for you need to set up a saved search. Search for the item using the search bar or advanced search. When you get the results click the heart icon at the top to save the search and get emails when new items are listed.

 

I do recommend if you decide to make this purchase from another country you first check with the seller to make sure its compatible with US voltage.
