Vintage without the price tag? Thrifted without the itchies? (IYKYK)
You just need to know where to look: today's eBay finds.
A little research and some scrolling and you can find some amazing steals on eBay at a fraction of the price from other stores.
Don't get me wrong, I love antique dealers, but I've been finding treasures since I was 16. I love the hunt.
Here are 3 of my best tips:
1. Search by material, then item type. aka lucite candlestick
2. Research, read, RE-search.
To find what you are looking for, learn what it is actually called originally. Then read the descriptions of items that match and use keywords from that listing to do the search again.
Bonus points if you use other websites/resellers to find more keywords.
3. Scroll and sort. Shop make an offer and buy it now for quick and easy finds.
DM me if you'd like to know my search terms I used to find these in a matter of minutes.
