I peruse Ebay on a regular basis and it always kills me to see items described as "rare" when in fact many of these items can be found without searching very hard. Do a search of Ebay and many times you will find the same item listed by multiple sellers! If you want an item described as rare by the seller,do yourself a favor and search Ebay [and other internet sites] for a few days and see if it is truly a "rare" item.Sellers often use words like rare,scarce,antique,vintage or collectible to interest buyers.Of course,there are rare items to be had on Ebay-I have found a few "jewels" myself! The point is,do a little research and find out how rare something is before paying top dollar for it!
