Does anyone else have alerts set up on eBay for particular names, items related to particular places, etc?
I do.
So far, it’s brought me the following with connections to my One Name Study:
– my own book (!)
– books on poodles, archiving, and ‘Diana Dors: Only a Whisper Away’
– my cousin’s treatise on the ovarian cyst (removal of, 1840s)
– another cousin’s retirement as Queen Victoria’s Consul in Cairo and associated presentation (recorded in the Gentleman’s Magazine)
– a Lott and Walne sawbench!
It’s also a great place to find everything from train tickets to postcards of particular places of interest.
Give it a go!
