Daniel D. Teoli Jr. Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 (edited) I've been archiving eBay for some years. The eBay Archive contains over 30,000 screenshots and photos in it. My latest project was massive and archived the Adult Only Section before eBay shut it down on June 15, 2021. I spent 3-1/2 months on it gathering archival material then organizing it. I asked Reddit's 'Data Hoarders' if they would do it, but they removed the thread as soon as it was posted. So I was stuck doing it myself. I like to archive eBay in small chunks of a dozen or a hundred screenshots, not tens of thousands. One area I like to collect in is crazy & weird listings. You never know what the eBayer's will come up with. Odd shaped Cheeto's and potato chips are favorites, but just no telling what they will list. Surprise boxes of who knows what are another staple there. Do you think they glued this one together? Or did they cut / form these shapes? I wonder if they ever sell any of these? Here is some of the eBay oddball collection if they interest you further. eBay Crazy & Weird Auctions D. D. Teoli Jr. A. C. : D. D. Teoli Jr. A.
