Well, don't look on eBay, look on Amazon. There are plenty of offers with new-old-stock Dreamcast keyboards and mice. I bought both for a very low price off Amazon a few months ago. I just checked Amazon Germany and there are still offers. What's more of a concern is getting the necessary broadband adapter for the Dreamcast. Those are very hard to get outside Japan but in Japan it's less of a problem which is generally true for any SuperH hardware. The cheapest and easiest obtainable hardware are the LANDISK devices sold by IODATA in Japan. Those sell for around 20-50 Euros on Yahoo Auction Japan and have been reported to work fine with Debian.
