Yes, eBay is now 10 years old! And to celebrate that fact, here are some interesting facts about the world's largest site to buy and sell: The most expensive item on eBay sold came to a total of £5m. A £5 note was sold on eBay for £6.99. The most eBayers in the world live in the US, followed closely by the UK. When it started it was simply a computer geek's hobby, but it has now grown into a £25bn business, now that's improvement! One of Elvis' teeth was put up for auction, but never sold. A lunch that was half-eaten by Justin Timberlake sold with the fork and syrup included. Someone put up the Millenium Dome for sale at £10m including shipping, it was taken down.
some guy sold a freshly polished tea kettle with picture of it included him in the reflection naked. also saved me over $120 on a calculator.
The best one I heard of was one young English woman who sold her virginity! I don't remember how much she raised but it was a four- or five-figure sum! It's called Reflectoporn, it had a brief vogue a few years back.
A CD sells every 11 seconds on eBay and a mobile phone sells every minute. Approximate figures but shows the amount of demand.
yeah she sold it for £8,000 i think, it was to pay her way through college and the reason she had never lost it was because she was a lesbian...(they told us this in school strangely enough)
