eBay and Argos Strike ‘Click and Collect’ Deal

Online retail giant eBay has announced a "click and collect" tie-up with British retailer Argos as the U.K.'s stores look to increase their online business and e-retailers try to gain a foothold on Main Street. Shoppers will be able to buy items from at least 50 merchants on eBay and pick them up from 150 Argos' stores across the UK. The pilot scheme is seen as part of growing trend of e-commerce businesses trying to have a presence in towns and shopping areas.
