Online sales to grow in Australia |
|
Thursday, 08 July 2010 10:45 |
Online retail in Australia is forecast to reach $33.8 billion by 2012, up from $24 billion last year, according to research commissioned by eBay, which owns PayPal.

However, PayPal Australia MD Frerk-Malte Feller said while the industry was growing, it still lagged behind the rest of the world.
