People buy junk from China on eBay and charge "shipping" that costs more than the item costs on eBay. Unless its actually vintage, the jewelry is China stuff that you can get for under a dollar on eBay or Amazon. When you type in the search, half the results are people listing things for 499 credit start bid and 5.99 shipping. Everyone knows better... so most are abandoning the site. The greedy ones who stay are asking hundreds of thousands worth of credits for dollar store stuff. Tired of giving things away, and not being able to get anything in return. :(
