24 Years of Ebay

Recommended Posts

So, exactly 24 years ago I joined Ebay and that led me to start collecting more and more retro games and systems.  I was surprised at how easy it was to find old games!  Ebay sent me an email with this image to "celebrate"...2913 positive feedback in that time.  🙂

I remember someone who I worked with bragging about selling postcards of high priced items.  Basically, hoping suckers would pull the trigger despite warnings in the description.  He'd just make a new account when things got too dicey.

Not very confident things have changed.

Ha! I joined eBay while having a conversation about Atari systems with my brother. He said, “remember Atari, I wonder if anyone’s selling them.” I immediately checked eBay and couldn’t believe how many games/consoles were available.
I just made my 21st year. They didn’t send me an email. Maybe I need to leave/receive more feedback.
