By dollar volume or by item? I buy lots of little things, golf, and electronics on ebay so my non-coin item total buying is high. selling, I probably sell 10,000 coins for evey non-coin but hope to start selling some other stuff soon. By dollar value, coins do much better. --Jerry
I'd estimate 55-65% of my eBay activity in the past has been unrelated to US coins. More than half, probably. I'm a longtime "Darksider", as many of you know, and eBay is still the way to go as a seller if you're selling non-US coins. No other venue matches its global spread.
I buy all sorts of stuff off eBay - books, chotzkes, McDonalds Happy Meal toys, slot cars and even the occasional coin With eBay being what it is, I tend to buy coins at shows and auctions but still will buy coins from sellers with whom I have developed a solid relationship.

100% or more
Edited to add, I (for the most part) stopped buying coinage on ebay a couple years ago.
However, probably 60% US, 40% Canadian by value.
That's because most high value Canadian coins are purchased locally, at shows.

2% or less for me, but still coin related.

Dollar volume would be 90% coins though!
I've made 1,500+ purchases and I would say about 70% are non-U.S. coins, and the percentage is increasing every day.

If I had it my way, stupidity would be painful!
