The E-Bay Christmas Treasure Hunt
Another challenge for mental puzzlists, with the chance to win some decent prizes:

The E-Bay Christmas Treasure Hunt

You have to solve the clue and search for the prize, which is hidden under a different name.

This solutions list gives you an idea how obscure the clues are, but people seem to be finding them so let's have a team-YD effort

At the moment the clue is "TWINKLE" and the hint is "MINCE PIE".

Happy hunting!

Yeah, that's what I thought - but looking at the previous clues "eye" is just the start of the chain; they're all really abstract - for example:

Tree > Top > Treetops > Elizabeth II at Treetops when heard she was Queen > Crown/Jewels > Prize Listing: Jewellery Box
or...
Panto > Such Ladies! > Pantomime Dames > Paul O’Grady/Lily Savage > In Panto at Victoria Palace Theatre > Prize Listing: Victorian Dish Art Nouveau?

So it'll be something like Twinkle > Mince Pies > Twinkle in their Father's Eye > Father's Eyes > Eric Clapton > Cream > "A delightful 18th Century milking stool" then...
