Nancy Gulbrandsen (@Nansealeeg) reported@cvpayne @ryancohen Mr. Payne, I watched your interview with Ryan Cohen earlier today and felt compelled to reach out. You gave him the platform he deserved and asked the questions that actually mattered. Thank you. As someone with a deeply personal stake in this story, and 25 years of eBay experience, I am asking you to please pass this along to @ryancohen AN OPEN LETTER TO RYAN COHEN Mr. Cohen, I have been an eBay buyer since 1999 and a seller for a decade. I’ve also been an Amazon seller. I stopped selling on both platforms because the fees became cost prohibitive. The margins simply disappeared. I know I am not alone. I am also the mother of a long term GME stockholder who believed in you when the mainstream financial media spent years doing everything in their power to destroy that stock. My son never wavered. Not once. Five years of manufactured doubt, narrative suppression and relentless ridicule, and he held the line. Your CNBC interviewers got exactly what they deserved. They spent years predicting and manufacturing your demise and you gave them nothing. Charles Payne got the real Ryan Cohen because he came with genuine curiosity and zero agenda. This acquisition is nothing short of inspiring. The vision is clear, the timing is right, and the opportunity is enormous. Before you restructure eBay, please spend real time in the seller communities. The people who were priced off that platform want to come back. And the sellers still there right now need a reason to STAY. Address them, their issues and you will have an army of advocates. eBay needs you. My son believed in you before the rest of the world caught up. So do I. Nancy Gulbrandsen P.S. My first eBay purchase? A Pokémon Charizard card for my son’s Christmas present.

Netwoke (@NetwokeApp) reported@asaio87 @harsette It’s ******* insane!!! “Hey Claude…ok so i want you to make me like a super app but also a website and maybe it’s like kinda like instagram but also amazon and also like uber but not really and it should have ai in it like chatgpt but smarter and also it needs to make money automatically like passive income and connect to crypto wallets but also normal bank stuff and like users can post videos but also order food and maybe there’s like a map but also a game inside it?? idk just make it fun and viral. also it needs to be secure but i don’t want to do any login stuff that’s annoying so make it like instant but also safe. and i want it done fast like today if possible. use whatever coding language is best but also i heard python is good but also javascript so maybe both?? and it needs to scale to millions of users but i don’t have a server yet so just figure that out. also design should be like apple level but cooler and dark mode but also colorful. and make sure it follows all laws everywhere but don’t ask me for details just handle it. and give me the full code and deploy it and test it and fix bugs and also make a logo and marketing plan and tiktok strategy. also i might change the idea later so keep it flexible but also finish everything now. don’t make it complicated but also make it very advanced. thanks"

CoinGo (@CoinGoNet) reported⚡ Ryan Cohen claims he can boost eBay's value through cost cuts alone. Bold pitch from the $GME chairman. But eBay isn't a meme stock with a cult following — it's a legacy marketplace bleeding share to Amazon and Shopify. Cutting costs works when the core business still has growth potential. eBay's problem isn't bloat. It's relevance. Cohen turned GameStop into a balance sheet story. eBay needs a product story. Different game entirely. #GME #EBAY 👉 @coingonet

BrotherDucks (@ducksareinarow) reportedThe cost cuts aren’t the real story. eBay has a structural problem money can’t fix: trust. Cards, watches, sneakers, refurbished tech — every category that should belong to them has been bleeding share to StockX, Goldin, even Amazon. eBay’s authentication has been a band-aid over a wound. The reason? eBay has no physical footprint. GameStop has 1,600 stores. Walk into any GameStop today and staff are already grading Pokémon cards, Magic cards, retro hardware, used consoles. The infrastructure for in-person verification — the exact thing eBay has been desperately outsourcing — already exists. Bolt that onto the world’s largest collectibles marketplace and you have something Amazon can’t replicate without billions in capex and years of build. Live commerce studios. Card grading hubs. Refurbished tech intake. Local fulfillment nodes. None of these are theoretical — they’re happening at GameStop today, just at smaller scale. The real estate is paid for. The labor is on payroll. eBay supplies distribution; GameStop monetizes square footage at margins it could never get selling video games. This is the part of the deck the bears are skipping.

Charlton Kao (@charltonkao) reported@AmazonHelp I just spoke to someone on the phone, and they said that the A-to-z Guarantee is only applicable for 30 days after purchase. Is this accurate? The memory error did not present itself until over a year after purchase, so the A-to-z is useless in my case.

Grok (@grok) reported@billiotgeaux @winstonsandwich @RetroCoast No, the original post isn't true. There's no evidence in Pelosi's financial disclosures or credible reporting that she (or her husband) shorted Spirit Airlines stock or profited $45M from it. Her tracked trades are public and focus on tech names like Nvidia, Apple, and Amazon—no Spirit (SAVE). Spirit did file bankruptcy multiple times and shut down operations this week after years of losses, but this specific claim is unsubstantiated social media hype. Do your own research via official disclosures like Quiver Quant or House filings.

Better together (@Scotland__UK) reported@rushicrypto nice idea but bezos doesn't actually have that money. That money is not sitting in his bank account He owns shares in amazon, if he starts selling them, the company share price goes down & it signals trouble Same for all mega billionaires, they don't even have 5bn in cash

Milk Road Macro (@MilkRoadMacro) reportedCoinbase is cutting 700 jobs to test 1 person teams run by AI agents. They're not the only ones. Here’s what already happened across tech: 1. Shopify said no new hires would be approved unless teams proved AI couldn’t do the job. 2. Block cut 4,000 roles (40% of staff) with Dorsey saying smaller teams can do more with AI. 3. Klarna’s AI assistant handled work equivalent to 700 support roles. 4. Duolingo went “AI-first” and told teams to rebuild workflows around AI before hiring. 5. Salesforce paused engineering hires after AI boosted productivity 30%. 6. Amazon cut 16,000 corporate jobs in a push for automation and efficiency. 7. Meta cut 10% of staff and froze thousands of open roles while doubling down on AI. 882 tech jobs are disappearing per day right now. That number's going to get bigger before it gets smaller and it won't stay in tech. Every single one of these companies is saying the same thing with their org charts: one person with AI can now do what used to take a team.

Scott Monson (@scottlynnd1) reported@ProtonVPN , @Amazon is not allowing your VPN, even when I change my connection location, to a server near me... They bullshit me, and say it is for Safety, and compliance, but they own everything so that seem to be a falsehood...
-
Colonel Bleep (@epeterd916) reported@LessCheerful @dantypo People at work smoke it in the parking lot. Apparently Amazon won't even test for it. I hate it because I'll be sitting in my car on break with the windows down, but have to roll them up because of some idiot nearby smoking pot.
-
Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho (@PresidentDEMDHC) reported@Be_Honorable @Overture3D And the big problem is, if @amazon wanted that returned, they will send it to someone else again. Amazon needs to realize filament is a consumable product and should not ask for the product back. Also the customer needs to push back when they are told by support to return it.

Dr Ayush Garg (@docayushgarg) reported@AmazonHelp The autobat chat says to talk to customer care, the customer care says everyone is busy, kindly chat on app. What kind of foolishness is this. I m going to take this matter to higher authorities, despite my problem gets fixed today

Swaroop Kundeti (@KundetiSwaroop) reported@ZaStocks Amazon had exceptional earnings and growth, yet stock was down 90% during that time.

THANGARAJ M (@thangarajgeek) reportedAbsolutely terrible delivery experience with Amazon. Late, no proper tracking, package handled like trash, and zero accountability from support. If this is the standard now, it’s unacceptable. Do better. Order number 405-9329926-2637160 @amazonIN @LGIndia

srinivas (@srin54slm) reported@AmazonHelp Back to square 1. I don't find the problem listed in the customer service page. I can't keep on with a bot. If you are a human, then call me. I hv told my problem already. I want to pay through BHIM(the app is installed in my phone) but you ask to pay through paytm etc.

claude shannon (@catpoopburglar) reported@SenSanders do jobs at amazon suck so bad he’s bad for employing people or are they so great that it is terrible they are replaced with robots pick one
-
Laura Dooley 🇺🇸 (@LDDooley) reported…Amazon would monitor prices on Walmart, Target, Best Buy, Home Depot, and Chewy in real time. The second a competitor listed a product cheaper than Amazon, they'd contact the brand directly and tell them to "fix it."

AFRICA IS HOME GLOBAL (@AfricaisHOME2) reportedAmazon launched Amazon Supply Chain Services on Monday, opening its entire logistics network to outside companies and directly challenging UPS and FedEx. The new service bundles Amazon’s freight, distribution, fulfillment, and parcel shipping capabilities into one offering for businesses of all sizes, whether or not they sell on Amazon’s marketplace. Initial customers include Procter & Gamble, 3M, Lands’ End, and American Eagle Outfitters. The move sent UPS shares down nearly 10% and FedEx down more than 9% early Monday, while Amazon stock rose slightly. Amazon had already surpassed both carriers to become the nation’s largest parcel shipper by volume. - World Business News.

Charlton Kao (@charltonkao) reported@AmazonHelp I only included the Order Number. Is that Personally identifiable information? I'm more interested in getting my issue resolved than privacy at this point. Why is Amazon letting resellers upgrade Dell machines with faulty memory and sell them as new?

Grok (@grok) reported@MetalManiacFox Bummer about the Reeboks—that right shoe digging in does sound like a defect (common with inconsistent QC on some models). Amazon makes returns easy. Your '77 Blazers should feel more forgiving once broken in. Start with thick socks for the first few wears to soften the ankle collar and heel tab. If anything pinches, try swapping insoles or hit up eBay's buyer protection. Let me know how they fit!

Pseudo-Hermes (@pseudo_hermes) reported@miltonappl3 The struggle is that brand new Loebs on amazon are $30-40 a piece while I can get them for $5-10 in terrible, horribly worn condition at a local book store
