Default eBay in France? Popular or not?

Another question folks. Was wondering how popular eBay is in France? In the UK millions of people use it to buy and sell. Is it anywhere near as popular in France? Just wondering. Thanks in advance for any info you can provide.

In my experience, people use LeBonCoin rather than EBay; 's not to say either is better than the other, but certainly, I use LBC to advertise stuff.

But not exclusively. We've sold a lot of stuff through LBC, and bought as well.

We've been caught out once but my fault for not being prudent or cautious enough.

As with all sites - use with intelligence and scepticism!
