For many having a home full of second hand titbits might be a dream, with access to wheels in our fair city can sometimes be a hindrance, and lets face it, suburban jaunts with antique wardrobes aren't quite practical (I have experienced this first hand, and no, it isn't practical).
eBay however is a fab database of gems, with some sellers even kindly offering delivery, freight and special delivery agreements. Here are a selection of things that are available now and would jazz up anyones home in an instant.
If you fancy buying any of these bits, just give the picture a click and the listing will open in a new window. By Rosie
I know for some that this lamp may be testing the boundaries of taste, but I love it's casino like glamour. Currently £6.32 from the US of A.
A lovely little Ercol candlestick chair, which I have been subliminally lusting after since the release of the new John Lewis A/W 2010 ad campaign was released. Starting bid is a hefty £49.99.
I really like the Little House on the Prarie feel to the drawings on this 1950's jewellery box. Apparently it sing too, but with second hand comes mystique! Currently at £4.95.
Cakes are always important, and deserve to be elevated correctly, above all the other foods, so canapes know their place in the tastiness pecking order. This is a lovely little cake stand that I'm actually considering bidding on, as I am having this thing next year with a ceremonial cake.. bids start at £3.
This cumbersome beauty would fit in well in a kitchen, or lounge, or even bedroom (if you have lots of stuff?), and is an absolute steal at starting bids of £3.20. It is definitely worth a hell of a lot more.
G-Plan are like the celebrity of eBay coffee tables at the minute, so this vaguely titled listing doesn't really give away the official make, but it's a good imposter if not. Starting bid £10.
For the die hard tea and cake fan, this lovely specimen needs to be loved. After a bit of a clean and some doily action, this tea trolley will aid many a dinner party and will most definitely be a talking point. Starting bids at £4.99.
This is definitely more of a display pice. The box just screams glamour and would rather fetching on the dressing table below. Starting bids at £8.
A ship in a bottle. That's vintage and has a beautiful turquoise-green sea. I don't think I have to say anymore. Starting bids at £4.99.
And finally, for those of you that love your leisurely getting ready time this is a perfect teak dressing table that looks to be in a very good condition, and even has space underneath for shoes. Current bid at £3.30.
