eBay Opens the '95 Shop, Celebrating 30 Years of Cultural Icons

Press Release

Curated by Sarah Michelle Gellar, the shop marks 30 years of eBay as the destination for cultural must-haves - from Jordan XI and Pokémon to Gucci and a '97 Land Rover Defender.

SAN JOSE, Sept. 3, 2025 - eBay today announced the launch of the '95 Shop - a retail experience and online destination featuring the most iconic fashion, collectibles, and motors from the '90s. Curated by actress and '90s icon Sarah Michelle Gellar, the shop celebrates eBay's 30-year legacy of shaping culture, fueling recommerce, and connecting people with the things they love.

Drawing on eBay data, the collection features "greatest hits" that defined the decade and remain cultural staples today - from Jordan XI sneakers and Pokémon cards to vintage Gucci and a '97 Land Rover Defender.

"It's been so fun to see the best of '90s culture take center stage again, particularly as it was such a defining period for me personally," said Sarah Michelle Gellar. "eBay has always been the place to find iconic pieces - from memorable looks to rare collectibles and more. Curating the '95 Shop gave me the chance to spotlight items that defined the decade, including a few signed Buffy treasures."

Shoppers can immerse themselves in '90s nostalgia at the '95 Shop pop-up in New York City or online at https://www.ebay.com/e/sales-events/ebay-30th-95-shop, where they can browse the collection and bid on coveted items. From Pokémon to Prada, fans will find some of the decade's most sought-after grails, with items starting at just 95 cents.

The "greatest hits" represent 30 of the most memorable items from the era that have captured the hearts of collectors for three decades and still top fans' wishlists to this day, including:

  • 1995 Karl Lagerfeld for Chanel Rue Cambon Paris Belt: Vintage Chanel is in remarkable demand, illustrated by more than 2,600 searches per hour during the first half of 2025.
  • Omega Seamaster Diver 300M: This dive watch reached new heights of fame when it first graced the wrist of James Bond in the '90s. Fast forward to 2025 and "Omega Seamaster" was the top searched model in eBay.com's watches category through the first half of the year.
  • 1994-95 Michael Jordan Autographed Bulls M&N White 45 Jersey: Thirty years after his return to basketball, his Airness dominates the collectibles game as the most-searched athlete in eBay's global collectibles category in 2025.
