Luis (@lcae83) reported@avaricexxx1010 @WRabbit741 That "DD" been wrong for years, it's irrelevant...and a big part of it is just delusional optimism Operation looks much better BTC and Ebay investments are in the red and will impact next ER Convert 1,4B debt atm, why? More dilution to come probably Stock will continue to go down

Matthew Shawn Lindholm (@MatthewLin78256) reported@SECGov The operations take place all over los angeles. If a chair costs $45 USD to manufacture and it get posted and sold on eBay for $15,000 USD, it's likely part of a money laundering operation. The Beverly Hills Cop Crews Should Have Already Started Tracking These Guys Down.

Vin’s Card Depot (@VinsCardDepot) reportedeBay standard envelope has been a real hit or miss over the last few weeks both as a seller and buyer…. Anyone else seem to be having some issues with getting scans or delivery updates??

Ryan Dunner (@ryandunner) reported@GoatBeardzDD @jackAskingQs I rarely go long GME options, if I do its random lottos. How I like to accumulate is simply buying every week or month and then when we go through the volatile cycles, swaps or big news then I look to sell calls against my shares. Last time I did this was the ebay merger news and price ripped up. Sold some calls and waited.. stock falls back down and I use the premium to buy more shares. In my experience when I have every emotion in my body telling me to full send my account on $GME calls (like what I feel right now) - is exactly when I need to clear my head and step back. We are playing a game of emotions against the market makers and players on the other end of this trade. Currently I am looking into building some long calls here which for me would be Jan 2027 and beyond but still for me this would be with money that I look at as risk capital. I have a meaningful position in shares so if the calls go to 0 I dont care. Just me though not advice obviously. My sell button is broke for the stock. Warrants are interesting. Personally I sold all of mine because I am not sure whats going to happen. Another strategy I will put on is selling a put where I am happy owning the stock and then using premium for shares or to pay for a call (if I see fit).

Dr. Brouk (@DrBrouk) reported@eBay @depop Frustrating, @eBay. I see a charge I need help with, but apparently speaking to an actual human being is nearly impossible. Instead, I’m sent in circles through useless AI agents and endless links that don’t resolve the issue. Need a HUMAN BEING. #eBay #CustomerService

My Card Inventory (@mycardinv3ntory) reportedI’ve made it a rule to: 1) Post a card to eBay every day 2) Post a reel / photo to Instagram every day 3) Post a Tweet every day 4) Make at least 3 product improvements to My Card Inventory every day It’s not easy, but since I’ve made it a rule I’ve not broken it

Nikki Darling (@AnarchoDarling) reportedFor years I’ve been selling and buying on FB Marketplace. I’ll sell my kids lightly used clothes and use the money to buy the next size up. It was meager, but a good hustle while it lasted. I’ve saved our family so much money by doing this. Now the Meta algo is so bad that I’ll post 20 ads of dirt cheap bundles with pro photos and not a single view for weeks. I’ll have one day a month where my phone blows up with “Is this available?” messages and one sale. I shipped my first Marketplace order yesterday and now I’m waiting to find out if I’ll be scammed with a chargeback or refund request. So I decided to log into my 24 year old eBay account where I’ve sold about 200 random things over the years. Nope! They gave me a sales limit of $10 a month. I asked for a customer service human to call me back a few hours ago. Still no call. 10 years ago I did really well selling my handmade jewelry on Etsy until Chinese scammers starting replicating my designs. Now Etsy is overflowing with scammers and Temu junk. I rarely post my original designs online anymore for fear of them being reproduced. I’m convinced there’s an agenda to shut down little side hustles. I’m tired of spending so much time researching ways to trick the algorithm while AI slop gets millions of clicks.

rick 🎢🎡🎟️ (@RickCooper02) reported@GilliverJamie Yes that’s the one, if you click bids you can see eBay keep removing fake bids so the price is constantly up and down it’s a mess

Papa Pummels (@PapaPummels) reported@ObjIFDividends @canadapostcorp That stinks. I'm considering selling some low cost items on eBay, but worried about these issues since I would also use low cost shipping
-
Ed Mox (@Muddybon) reported@Cody_Is_Boring @musicbykwiz @JoshInEncinitas The bits get expensive..I've used some cheap Ebay ones just to test them. They weren't terrible, but cost very little. I keep a few for backup.

John Deer (@bbby4lyfe) reported@teddy__com @ryancohen Ill keep happily buying nothing has changed except the price, which is controlled by ken griffin. If u bought at $22 why wouldnt you buy here? What has fundamentally changed? The ebay deal is looking better everyday the price goes down lol.

Cardboard Connection (@sportscards) reportedSo my company is made over 100 million in sales In the past decade for eBay Using the eBay Partnership Network their affiliate marketing program. I would think that nine figures would buy at least a little feedback maybe a phone call notes an explanation maybe even some perks considering the magnitude... Instead my commissions were cut by over 2/3, everything is limited I was never entered into any programs and literally am losing my company without an explanation and Trying to save my business, the most recent compliance request came in about the entirety of my Facebook and X accounts. Keep in mind both of these accounts have roughly 70,000 followers between the two and I've never had an issue in a decade with these accounts except for the occasional request for an appliance update and I was trying links for one of their new programs. There's no way to call anyone there there's no way to get an explanation and now I've had to let go all of my employees just to keep the company alive until yesterday... Went from 4M organic users visiting my site, to this. Coincidently, 2 days after I asked for an explanation why my commission were basically eradicated. Play something along these two social media platforms that I haven't touched in a month since the last compliance Only reason enough to shut me down after 16 years with ebay. IS ANYONE ELSE EXPERIENCING THIS??? They told me i was being used as a test pilot which is why my rates were below the GLOBAL STANDARD RATE CARD. And to wrap it up stay informed me of my suspension after over a decade of business by writing an email to me with the wrong name. I don't know who Ryan is... HELP

Captain Canuck AKA Geoff Sloat (@DragonNinja76) reportedLooks like @Playstation only had enough Wolverine plates for scalpers was in my cart and error processing cause item was swiped from my cart. But they are already up on Ebay for hundreds.

Imsosmart (@ImSoSmart1985) reported@Useless_Cog @ryancohen GME was not up 26% when RC announced eBay acquisition. It had already trended down to around $22.50 and had started moving back to mid 23.50 - 23.90 and then RC announced $1.4 Billion convertible notes. But up until then, GME was already -45% on the 5-year

Kezhior (@Kezhior) reportedMost people think building a six-figure online income requires venture capital, huge upfront inventory risks, or quitting your day job on a whim. Ryan Hogue proved the exact opposite. In his twenties, Ryan was grinding around the clock. He worked a demanding 9-to-5 as a senior web developer, taught coding classes at night, and took on freelance clients on weekends. The money was decent, but he had zero time freedom taking a single weekend off gave him serious anxiety. That is when he stopped trading hours for dollars and tapped into Print-on-Demand (POD) and scalable e commerce. Printful Instead of wiring thousands overseas for bulk physical inventory, he built digital assets that only fulfill when a customer buys. By steadily expanding across platforms like Amazon, Etsy, and eBay, he scaled his side hustles to over $49,000 a month in consistent, passive cash flow. Here are the biggest rules Ryan shares with anyone wanting to start today: • Never quit your 9-to-5 prematurely: Keep your primary paycheck to cover living expenses while using your spare hours to build sweat equity without financial stress. • Occupy digital real estate: Physical real estate costs a fortune, but listing quality designs across multiple online marketplaces costs almost nothing. • Focus on zero-inventory models: Start with print-on-demand or digital products where you only pay supplier costs after a customer pays you. • Embrace the slow compound: Sustainable income is not built overnight; it comes from dozens of small listings steadily compounding over months and years. True financial freedom isn't just about making money it is about reclaiming your time. What side hustle or passive income stream are you currently building or curious to test this year? Drop your ideas in the comments below, and share this post with someone looking to break out of the 9 to 5 grind!

FREEDOM ISNT CHEAP (@granviledufleur) reported@PWestoff The issue of fly tipping has been directly caused by EU environmental landfill taxation that the UK has decided to continue to keep. This has meant council tips that just used to accept they were a rubbish tip, offering an essential service to keep their area clean, started to become draconian in their acceptance and sorting of rubbish. Now you have to prove you are a council tax payer, and have strict weight limits you can dump per year, and in worst councils tips you are being charged £5 per item, regardless if it’s the first thing you have ever dumped. Let’s not forget due to us now having to sort the rubbish, the council sells certain rubbish by the ton, for a new source of income that they used to just bury in the ground. My tip now has signs everywhere saying any item that touches the floor instantly belongs to the council and other tippers are not allowed to take it home, as it is theft🤷. There are surveillance cameras everywhere enforcing this. The reason being good items are sorted through and sold on eBay by the tips staff. What did they expect would happen to people’s rubbish, if councils have to pay huge taxes to dispose of rubbish in landfill and citizens can’t dispose of it at their council tips? Let’s also not forget the ridiculous landfill tax has resulted in lots of rubbish including toxic plastics being incinerated by citizens but also large private owned incinerators (mostly American owned) on extortionate contracts that means if rubbish runs out we still have to pay the incinerators to do nothing!!

Imsosmart (@ImSoSmart1985) reported@WilliamT268238 @TeddyRJ741 What news? If it came that it bought eBay, price world go down. If it came that the deal is 100% off, the price would go down. The only thing that would raise the price is if GameStop fired Ryan Cohen, and made a statement saying they would never dilute the shareholders again.

Oli Mortimer (@olimortimer) reported@eBay_UK In the meantime customers are asking why I haven't refunded them yet. "Sorry, it's not you, or me, it's the utter crap that is eBay". You would think for the amount of money we pay in fees, we would be able to use the site without constant errors.
