I'll be in Europe for about a week, mainly France and Italy. Looking for ideas on what might be worth getting while there, for sale on eBay. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

I lived in Italy (Florence) and one of the turisty items that you can't find so easily here in the states are those stationary sets.
They come in a folder and have matching paper, envelopes and many times a pen.
Florentine paper, raphael angels a dozen different styles.
If you get a lightblue florentine paper one i'll buy it off ya lol Or an angel one or both.
There wasnt anything in Paris or in the South of France worth buying to bring home and sell on Ebay.
Have fun in Europe a week is definately not enough........but see all you can in that short of time.

I lived in Europe for 34 years and still go back to shop for ebay items and do great now because the exchange rate is wonderful for Americans right now!
Go to flea markets - a flea market there is more like an antique market here, much better quality stuff and great prices. I bring back suitcases full every time. Italy can be expensive - it's one of the countries I lived in so I really know - but they have wonderful linens and women still do a lot of embroidery.
