Rooster Collectibles On eBay

Rooster collectibles are proof that eBay is truly an amazing online bazaar. The average person doesn't give much thought to roosters - but obviously there are dedicated collectors who do.

There are two reasons buyers flock to eBay:

1. They are price shoppers, tracking down bargains
2. They are collectors who scour the world seeking to fulfill their passions

That is part of the charm - and power - of eBay. Where most folks used to be limited to their neighborhoods and an occasional vacation, or paper catalogs, there are now goods available from all over the world that can be found right in our living rooms.

For instance, this rooster weathervane sold for a whopping $5,399.99 on eBay:

According to the seller, this handsome rooster collectible was appraised by Christie's for $8-9,000, and if this is accurate, the buyer received a bargain, indeed. It is 21" tall, while the arrow is 26" and it dates from the 1880's. We can only wonder if the proud new owner puts it outside in the rain, storms and hot sun?

Other healthy prices include:

* A "Continental Silver Rooster Canister": $1600 with 27 bids
* A "Geschutzt Austrian Painted Bronze Rooster Inkwell": $1575, with an astonishing 37 bids
* A "Herend Fishnet Large Rooster - Black": $1350 with 8 bids
* An "Edwin Meaders green rooster": $1111 with 13 bids

There are many other kinds of rooster-related items that sell on eBay, like a round rug with a rooster design; cookie jars and canisters; prints; lamps; settees and hall benches; egg cups; medallions; tiles; and even a beer stein with a rooster design.

Rooster collectibles are one of the many categories on eBay where the items are relatively few, compared to the better known categories, but collectors bid fiercely and fervently for treasured items.
