was actually born in France. The new venture follows
country-specific sites in the United Kingdom, Germany,
Canada, Japan and Australia.

will take a week or two to build up a substantial quantity
of French-sourced collectibles, for which users can bid in
francs.
Meg Whitman, president and chief executive, eBay, said
the launch of eBay France brings the company's successful
online trading model to another of the world's top Internet

Amazon launched its own French outlet Amazon.fr. Some
observers this week have questioned whether the
complementary aspects of eBay and Amazon will lead
to a merger of the two e-commerce giants.
