There's a lucrative eBay market for ‘well-worn’ cabin crew tights and shoes

eBay sellers in and around Bristol are raking in big offers for used cabin crew uniforms including tights, shoes and even name-badges.

A Bristol Live investigation has found various air hostess outfits available on the Meet the Bristol lawyer who quit job and now earns a fortune on eBay, many of them attracting dozens of bidders.

Several items, most of which are advertised as used and “well-worn”, are being sold from Bristol, on top of many others from nearby areas.

Unusually for second-hand products, they come with a hefty price tag.

One example is a pair of “very worn and tired cabin crew shoes" drawing 12 offers, the latest of which is £33 – and there are still three days of bidding.
