Okay, there's a nice pair of shells I'd like to get Mrs FC for valentines day and they are on ebay Germany. I've been through this before as you can use the 'buy it now' price with no probs, however if you want to make an offer you have to login to ebay germany! I did that once, got confused with the 1.000 Euros malarky and ended up buying a pair of campus for 3000 Euros! Don't ask... 
(thankfully I managed to sort it out)
Anyone out there had this issue before? Possible workaround? If this has been discussed before, please let me know, I did a search, found nothing.

Have tried sending the seller a message? If he's good with English he might be able to sort you out. Otherwise PM one of our German members and they might be able to help.
I bought my bordeaux vins from ebay.de and the seller was really good.

That was my next step, but just thought I'd check on here first.

Even when I save it in the English version it comes up in German, or maybe I'm missing something. Anywho I've emithered the seller, fingers crossed.
Valentines?
