Lots of small dealers, some with a trendy flavor to their offerings of new and used clothes, accessories and jewelry that you can't find anywhere else. You never know what you can find, but even the hardest to find super sizes can find options here - usually at bargain prices.  Tips for buying on eBay:  1. Check customer feedback for individual sellers - and make sure you leave feedback after a transaction is complete - it's good eBay etiquette. 2. Know your measurements. No two manufacturers size exactly the same way, so just because the size listed says 20W and you often wear a size 20 there is no guarantee it will fit. The downside to eBay is usually no returns. So demand garment measurements, and know your own.
