Argos and eBay to trial UK collection service

Argos, the UK's leading general merchandise retailer, and eBay, have today announced they are trialling a collection service, enabling shoppers to pick up products from about 50 selected eBay merchants at around 150 Argos stores throughout the UK. 

The trial is likely to last for around 6 months and is not expected to materially impact the financial performance of Home Retail Group in the current financial year.
