eBay took over some real estate in the heart of Manhattan on 57th for a pop-up store. When I first heard about it, it sounded kind of weird (eBay in a store?) I haven't had an opportunity to visit the store yet, but I've talked to some that have and they said it's actually pretty cool.
Fox business has two videos that highlight the store. Unfortunately they don't seem to have an embed function so I've linked to them.
In this first video, there's an eBay apparel seller, Linda's Stuff (Linda Lightman) talks about the store and her eBay business. You can see the apparel part of the store pretty well in this one.
In this video, Lorrie Norrington does an interview on Holiday top sellers from the pop-up shop.
Enjoy the videos and if you happen to go to NY or have been, let us know what you think about the shop in comments.
SeekingAlpha disclosure – I am long Google and Amazon. eBay is an investor in ChannelAdvisor where I am CEO.
