eBay has signed a deal with Russian online store Dostami.ru that will increase the American Internet auction giant’s deliveries from the U.S. to Russia and the former Soviet republics, Lenta.ru reported Tuesday, citing representatives from both companies.
The agreement will allow eBay users in the CIS to buy from sellers who don’t deliver to the region, and also to receive goods purchased from different sellers in one package, Vladimir Dolgov, eBay’s general director for Russia, and Dostami spokesman Maxim Andryukhin were quoted as saying.
