When I first started following eBay pipe auctions and sales in 2006 the average number of listings on any given day hovered around 5,000. Following the financial meltdown of 2007/2008 the number of listings rose to about 9,000 and eventually grew to about 20,000 as the Great Recession continued. Late last year the daily total had stood at about 44,000. The other day I decided to take a look and was a bit shocked to find the daily total at just under 90,000 listings available.
Anyone care to speculate as to why so many pipes are up for sale?
