The antiques are fabulous. I could go to antique shows for months and not find the selection of items I can see on EBAY in a day. I go to some great flea markets- Alameda has a good one- but the prices and selection are better on EBAY. The quality is fantastic- and the number of sellers with 500+ sales is growing fast- I know I am paying a hefty commission on my sales and I am not one of the power sellers. So while I do not think they are worth anywhere near what they are selling for, I do think the company is great- and unlike Amazon it isn't easily duplicated- after all a base really is important for an auction company- without a base no one bids on your stuff, and there is no other auction company I have found that is any good.
