I am always surprised at how low ebay prices are for tapestries, needlework and exquisite hand crafted art that takes hours of painstaking detail to create. Why spend 40 - 100 dollars on a cheap pillow though a national chain, when you can get an exquisite hand crafted pillow for less? Some of these needlepoint pillows can take some women several weeks to finish, and it makes you wonder why the prices are so low which would barely compensate them for their effort. Ebay sellers are mostly bargain hunters shopping thrift stores, fee markets and garage sales picking up worthy items at a discounted rate, and in turn selling it on ebay for a return.

As retirement hits 70 million baby boomers clean out their homes, (or their parents home) for a home sale, an increase of donations and antiques are showing up more than ever. Ebay has been the collectors dream where more valuable finds are able to be located worldwide from the comfort of their own home. Many people are gathering up different antiques from around the world as they surface on ebay in Europe and other remote places making it even more interesting. In many respects, purchasing off of ebay is supporting the average person working for themselves.
