Why are so many things on Ebay even more expensive then what the item would be brand new from the store?

I was searching for a Motorola MA1 Wireless Android Auto which is $80 brand new in a store, but on Ebay they are anywhere from $100 to $200. Even if it is pre-owned. It seems impossible that anyone is ever going to buy this so what is the purpose of these listings?

Oh man, let me introduce you to my absolute favorite used book seller:

Also, construction leftovers on eBay are a great way to get sink faucets, light fixtures, etc. for a house.

eBay is usually the cheapest IMO

The same vintage "rare" McDonald's T-shirt I wanted was $50+ on Etsy, Mercari, Poshmark, even some eBay sellers. But I got it for $2 from a dude on eBay 🤷‍♀️

Etsy is way worse at what OP is talking about, but I'm using it for vintage stuff not really electronics. For electronic stuff I use Swappa mostly

I really had no idea it was still around, or at least heavily in use.

Swappa is pretty damn handy. I've bought and sold several phones on there. Etsy has some really cool stuff, but some of the sellers on there are absolutely delusional. I've never checked out Poshmark. I'll have to check it out some time.

I'm curious - what is the shirt? I've got a really cool vintage one with the big yellow 'M' and Japanese characters under it that I picked up second-hand almost twenty years ago now. It sadly no longer fits because uhh it totally shrank and I didn't just gain a little weight.
