eBay to Open "Hard to Find" Holiday Gift Shops

With the perfect holiday gifts more out of reach than ever, eBay is hooking up shoppers with the season’s most sought after items through its Hard to Find Gift Shops. The new storefronts will pop up in select locations across the country – Detroit, Miami and Houston – beginning on November 19.

The Hard to Find Gift Shops will be just that – hard to find. Open to the most resourceful customers, a helpful location hint will be shared on eBay’s social channels the day before the shop launches, with the final location being revealed 24 hours later.

“This holiday season will put even the most serious shoppers to the test, but eBay was made for moments like this,” said Jordan Sweetnam, SVP and General Manager, eBay North America. “We created the Hard to Find Shops to bring our unmatched selection to life – from the rare and coveted to the sold-out-everywhere-else. The experience mirrors the impossibility shoppers are facing this year – and reminds them that eBay has something for everyone on their list.”
