Treasure trove

Nearly €10 billion could be made from re-selling unwanted items hoarded in attics and cupboards across Britain and Ireland, according to auction website eBay. The site has reported a flurry of activity in trading since the middle of March, which it puts down to the "spring-clean effect". The website says clothes, toys, old videos and CDs are among the unwanted items being flogged.
