The software engineer who was the first to create an online auction site, starting in 1995, probably was not aware that his idea would also help to spread the culture of repair. Today eBay has over 310,000 listings under the Repair heading. The site also has a specific “Parts & Accessories” section where it is possible to buy and sell almost anything for making repairs, from manuals to literature, spare parts to many different objects in the areas of electronics, automotive, motorcycles, apparel and many more.
