Investigate auctions on eBay and, for any category of
product in which you have knowledge or interest,
compare selling prices to prices of new goods from ecommerce sites. Attempt to find one or more products
which the item sold on eBay costs more than if it had
been purchased from a vendor. State the price
differentials. If you find no such products, list the
products' Ebay prices and vendor prices for the
products you investigated.
