eBay never thought they would get bigger than the bay area. The "e" in eBay stands for "East" which is the east side of the bay area.. where they started out.. but little did they know.. they were going to become a monster.

I believe the reason they achieved such a fast growth was due to the fact that people could actually make good money selling stuff on it instead of getting small amount of money for the stuff that they didn't want as on other auction sites.

This was a new concept and got a lot of attention. Due to the fact that so many people were starting to sell so much stuff for cheap, the word got around that they could buy stuff for much cheaper on ebay than from the store.. and it took off from there..

Another push came from PayPal, because it made it much.. MUCH easier for people to buy stuff from eBay
