eBay is the oldest internet business founded in 1995. The founder and chairman of eBay Pierre Omidyar started the website from his living room on September 3, 1995, by the name ‘AuctionWeb’. eBay started its business by allowing individuals or businesses to sell new and used products online through the auction for a low fee. This unique business plan is the major reason for its success. The first product posted and auctioned on eBay was a broken laser pointer at $15. Carving a niche in the toy collector market, eBay creates a revolution for rare toy collections. In 1996 the first president of eBay was appointed, later the year company entered into a third-party licensing deal to sell plane tickets and other travel products. Meg Whitman was appointed in 1998 as eBay President and CEO, by that time company has 30 employees, half a million users and $4.7 million in revenue in the U.S.

The product categories were then expanded beyond collectibles into everything saleable. In October 2002, the company bought PayPal.
