20 Most Expensive eBay Items Sold in 2019


eBay has become Antiques Roadshow for people with a pulse. The popular online marketplace was used to sell some wildly outlandish things in 2019. The top 20 list is dominated mainly by high-end sports cars, although it’s the top billings that will surely raise a few brows.

The most expensive eBay purchase of 2019 was a lunch date with business magnate Warren Buffet. The Forbes rich-lister and overall fourth richest person in the world gave up his time for charity, with the $4.5 million raised supporting the organisation GLIDE.

A Signed Tom Brady Playoff Contenders trading card from 2000 came in second place, while a 1997 Michael Jordan Metal Gems card came in at third. Both trading cards went for more money than a 2015 Lamborghini Aventador Roadster, which came in at fourth. A 2014 Newmar King Aire Motorhome rounded out the top five.

The autographed Tom Brady card went for the highest sum ever paid for a football card, beating the one-of-ten Michael Jordan cards from a few months earlier.
