A quick check check of the British auctions on WWII eBay reveals that a clock of all things was the top selling from the last fortnight. Judging by the # of bids that this wall clock received there are a lot of people who want to hang it up in their house.

USSR. WW2. Awarded to Gontar Konstantin Mikhailovich in November 1944 for action in Karelia and Norway.

Its not often that an auction jumps over $1,00o+ in less than 10 seconds. However, when you have two monster snipes come in on top of each other that is what happens. The #1 selling item had that bidding pattern and was one of the best items that sold recently in the category. The pair of 509th patches sold for almost the exact price but were won by different bidders. The pilot's wings saw 10 bids in the last few hours of the auction including three that too it over $1k.

Would you believe all of these great knives sold in the last week on eBay? The two top selling items were strong enough to go for over $2500. The bottom half of this Top-5 list was not as strong but even the low man on the totem pole sold for over $600.
