At the end of the link, replace the ?dl=0 with ?raw=1.

Hey there @vauxhallpartsuk - welcome to our forums and thanks for using Dropbox!

From what I see on the link you provided they seem to have used a shared link to embed this video file on eBay.

[With Dropbox, you can create a sharable link to any file or folder in your Dropbox folder. Anyone with the link can view the contents, but can’t edit them.]

Let me know if this helped at all!
