Time for the weekly eBay watch, and some very good news for eBay fans. If you like this lot, you'll love the latest blog from Shiny Media.

Lilac leather passport holder
Cream leather look large Roxy bag
Gucci rimless rhinestone sunglasses

Now here's the £3 belt with a Buy It Now price of £12.99. I smell a money-making scheme...
