-
Sam Parr (@thesamparr) reportedPalmer Luckey sold Oculus to Facebook for over $2B. We had him on MFM awhile back. His story: - At 14, scrubbed boats at a boat yard for minimum wage. On the side, bought broken iPhones on eBay, fixed them, and resold them. Made tens of thousands as a teenager doing it - Spent every dollar on prototyping VR headsets in his parents' garage at 18. - At 19, Facebook offered him $1B for Oculus. He said no. They came back months later with a $2B deal. - Got fired from Facebook in 2016 - Spent a year looking at 3 ideas: private prison reform, solving obesity with synthetic food, and national security. Picked national security and started Anduril in 2017. He said when he sold Oculus, nobody at the company made over $100k a year, including himself. They called it the "100K Club".

Uno (@reverseuno91) reported@mnchies Problem with investing in cards is liquidity I had a basketball/baseball collection and it took me forever to offload + with the eBay fees and post office trips it simply wasn’t worth the time & effort… It became a tedious pain in the *** even as my collection did 2-3 x…
-
Grok (@grok) reportedThat's a quad-socket server board (4 Xeon CPUs visible) stuffed with ~1TB RAM across dozens of DIMMs. Classic meme pic — most likely a Dell PowerEdge R920/R930 or similar Supermicro-based enterprise chassis. Used ones pop up on eBay cheap, but they're power-hungry beasts. Great for VMs/databases if you have the electric bill for it.
-
AVERAGEJOE33 (@AVERAGEJOE33) reportedSpot on he does need help. Put him in touch with @eubankslastpen for some training. He will sort that sleeping problem right out. He'll never again nod off while on the piss. His Ebay account might take a beating though.
-
inhuman (@inhuman) reported@RyanEver @0xLocust PSA site has been broken too recently. They've had a hold on my ebay authentications for some large purchases, assuming because they can't check the certifications
-
AKAhamradio (@AKAhamradio) reported@PM0wnu @M0KPH @eBay_UK There have been reports eBay UK has been taking down listings for legal CB radios
-
Cake (@CakeFTHomies) reported@RiceRiddler If you want 80%+ why not just sell on eBay? The reality is that vendors offer a service (some better than others). Card shows have rotted people's brains. When pokemon calms down all this nonsense will quickly dissipate.

Tyler (@Tyler_PA_) reported@eBay The website it down AI dummy

LD Waford (@LdWaford) reportedCalifornia’s 911 system is collapsing — 62,000 minutes of outages per month, engineers scavenging parts on eBay, and a $500M “upgrade” that made it worse. This is legacy infrastructure failing the public when lives are on the line.The Homo Novus Tech Stack solves it now: AI/AGI for intelligent, predictive call triage, instant dispatch, and coordinated response Starlink for resilient, always-on satellite communications that never go down (already proven in California disasters)Unlimited intelligence + unbreakable connectivity = public safety that actually works. The future isn’t patching broken 1970s systems. It’s evolving beyond them. #HomoNovus #TechStack

Chris Nelson (@zenck_null) reported@CoderciseYT @loomdoop Half-Priced Books... The main problem is there is a customer that will come into all the stores and scan the shelves with a ring based scanner and phone app that checks the ISBN vs what the prices are on Amazon and Ebay, thus scooping up the treasures. 🤨
-
𝘭𝘢𝘬𝘴𝘩𝘢𝘯 | ꕤ (@osnapitzlaka) reportedthe only option for international fans are eBay atp. i hope those prices will go down eventually
-
🔌 PlugPulls🔌 (@PlugPulls) reported@BiggzyRips It’s not down for me but the API is down and I’m not able to list to eBay from Card Dealer Pro right now
-
🌙 丂ㄖ山🝗㇄ㄩ (@iSowelu) reported@johnennis @amazon If the item page doesn’t show ‘ships and sold from Amazon’, you’re basically looking at an eBay like listing from a reseller, or Facebook Marketplace. Had this been an actual Amazon or partner stocked item, you’d have no trouble returning it. Always filter for ‘Prime Only’ items.
-
Roman Pioneer (@renoipgp) reportedCredit where it’s due: @eBay acted quickly and banned seller a1_excell after exposure, a high-volume scammer who moved over $25,000 in fake memorabilia, including items with PSA certificates that appeared home-printed. While the response is a positive sign, it underscores a deeper issue: a single account was still able to generate five figures in fraudulent sales before any action was taken. It proves that while platforms can react to public pressure, the current pre-sale screening for "authenticated" high-value items remains dangerously thin.

Tresa🌷 (@IAmGiGiIs) reportedI have a dumbed down seller on ebay trying to convince me that all corn is gmo and that I can no longer buy candy without gmo bioengineered corn syrup in it. PEOPLE REALLY HAVE BOUGHT THE FARM HAVENT THEY?🤡
-
N.E.Will (@TheRealNickW86) reported@dapples78 @CardPurchaser Ok That makes sense. I was wondering if it was glitching because of how eBay went down a few days ago
-
Lucifer (@venuswhxre) reported@impxrfectforyou this!!! if no one is buying them it forces these scalpers to either take down the listings OR discount them a lot a lot, Ebay should only be a LAST DITCH EFFORT after yknow she is not gonna restock more
-
Clowntonio Brown (@tapesandcds420) reported@Alexm3111 @iK9cards @gamestop He’s too lazy to take a photo and put it on eBay, his problem. Should be pissed AT the guy. Same with goodwill, ppl complain, but keep buying. Game stop “rips ppl off” but people keep going.
-
ScratStitch (@ScratStitch) reported@p1eak1ey Ugh. I'll have to buy the older DVD set on Ebay someday then. WB did something similar with an episode of Aqua Teen Hunger Force for equally silly reasons (actually, probably even more silly, since it wasn't even over an alleged legal issue).
-
Vet 420 (@WeedVet) reportedThen into the shell mailer…. So I have Dave all ready to mail out…. Who wants him… if I stick a regular stamp on this, makes it no problem… It’s those eBay shipping labels I sent some using the eBay envelope and so far so good on those Who wants Dave… ??
-
Fat Tony (@Tony_Baloney69) reported@X9_redux @CultLaser Yep im done with etsy and once my motorcycle parts inventory run dry im done with ebay. Both are terrible to deal with.
-
Betsy Soto (@BLySoto) reported@FrontTowardJerk @MadisonCalvert @eBay I can take a L on an auction, due to competition, start price, etc. I’m not taking an L due to the auction site being down for a bunch of users and an auction ending before it was scheduled to.
-
fats (@Sir_fatty) reported@eBay Hi, I'm a high-volume TCGplayer seller dealing with a marketplace tax issue on resale inventory. Support wasn't able to escalate-can you help route this to the correct team?
-
Christopher Russell (@Christo84297959) reported@eBay I already honored and shipped the card that sold for 3 dollars…I knew there had to be a glitch because the day before the same card on a different auction did 28. I honored the sale but that’s bullshit.
-
Pat(ricia) (@materialculture) reportedJust tried 7 times to make an offer on an ebay listing and the system keeps returning error messages. Thinking this is a continuation of the last two days of eBay’s site failures sellers are complaining about. How is this acceptable?? @ValueAddedRS
-
Mücahit Şeker (@mucahitseker) reported@eBay I already tried your support link but only get automated replies. My account (MC999) needs manual review. Legit business (SAB ECOM LLC), no issues. Please escalate my case to a human agent.
-
THFC_Theo 🏴🇳🇱 (@Rising_Goats) reported@eBay @eBay I don't want to speak to some brain dead AI or person just how long till you fix you're app
-
DJR Cards (@GoBigRed313) reported@KelVarnsenCards This is what the cost of shipping is without any discounts. If the seller buys the label from eBay or Pirateship, the discount takes it down to $5-5.50. Seller probably doesn’t realize, but this factor is losing them sales.
-
UNK ♻️ (@UnkleTio) reported@bziddy @CardPurchaser @eBay I'm actually having same issues I have less than 100 watched can't add more

CeltScot67 🏴☘️ (@dkt65) reported@eBay_UK just watchd BBC’s Watchdog prog abt ppl bein scamd when buyin vans for sale under a company who weren’t selling a van. Despite those scamd & the company contacting eBay they wouldn’t take the posting down, they said eBay’s policies weren’t bein violated. Don’t use eBay!
