The best thing about shopping online is not having to try anything on, the worst part is not having to try anything on. So, the new eBay pop-up store is both the best and worst thing ever.
Opening on November 20th, this real life version will be located in New York City, and will feature some of the most desirable, cutting edge fashions. The eBay pop-up store will be giving away a ‘daily deal’ item to the first 100 customers, and will match every dollar spent in the store up to $200,000, donating it to various worthwhile causes.
