Find Unclaimed Items Sold on Ebay.com

Ebay has become the latest place for unclaimed assets to be found and purchased. Unclaimed items from across the globe can be found at Ebay at amazingly cheap prices. Items ranging from abandoned safety deposit boxes and police confiscated items are being auctioned to the highest bidder on Ebay.
Some of the most common unclaimed property on Ebay are from Safety deposit boxes. By law, any safety deposit box which has not been claimed for 3 years (in most of the states), is turned over to the state’s unclaimed property division. At this point of time state may decide to auction the items of the deposit box.

And, what better place to auction than Ebay?

The state auctions the unclaimed property retrieved from the safety deposit boxes, since the owner of the box cannot be located. The funds received from the auction are available to the owner, if the owner ever tries to recover the property.

Prior to the popularity of Ebay, states held physical auctions to sell the deposit box contents, but now the states are getting more revenue at lesser effort by utilizing the Ebay platform. Some of the top draw items that are sold on the Ebay are diamond necklaces, wedding and engagement rings, ruby necklaces, rare coins and stamps and much more.
