Ebay trials click&collect service in UK

Online marketplace eBay is trialling a click & collect service

in the UK in conjunction with its retail partners. Last month, the e-tailer began a trial of a delivery service in the US as it seeks to widen its reach across traditional retail stores.

It is hoped that this latest venture will cement the company’s reputation as a far-reaching retail brand. Commenting on the trial service, an eBay spokesman said: “At the beginning of August we began trialling ‘eBay Now’, a same day delivery service in San Francisco.

“With eBay’s commitment to enabling commerce we have been trialling a Click and Collect service in the UK with-a-view to offering the service fully with one or more of our retail partners sometime in the New Year.”
