Link: Yahoo, EBay to Team Up in Japan

"Yahoo Japan Corp. and eBay Inc. said Tuesday they have agreed to team up in online auctions, planning services for next year that will make it easier for consumers to buy things via the Internet from the U.S. and Japan.

The deal will facilitate ‘cross-border trading’ and invigorate the online auction market, Yahoo said in a statement."

It is exciting that people in Japan will finally be able to trade outside of their borders, because they seemed to have such problems with that in the past.
