Who has bought a Broadway related thing from ebay, and what is it?

Sorry if there's a thread on this, but I thought it might be fun to see who got a show- related item from ebay. I recently did my first item. It is the rare 1989 T. V. movie version of the play THE WOMAN IN BLACK. I ordered mine, but it's supposed to arrive next week. I'll post when I get it. So, who has something like that from ebay or another place (and the flee market thing every September counts.) Who and what?

I like buying the 14x22 show posters from ebay. You have to sift through a lot of ApplauseOnline listings (which are usually over-priced and often described incorrectly), but you can usually find people who have picked them up free at industry events who are selling them cheap. I managed to get a framed Candide showcard for next to nothing recently! (v. good)

I bought a Vaudeville program from the early 1900's, a group of playbills from the 1940's (Oklahoma; Kiss Me, Kate; Carousel; etc), and autographed playbill from Al Jolson's last broadway show, Hold On To Your Hats ; an entire cast autographed playbill from Parade, playbills from The Pirates of Penzance and The Secret Garden, and the recordings of Vanessa Williams in Spiderwoman and the OBCR of Chess.
