    @rorypicks yeah, most of my issues are with PC cards. i have a tight setup for ebay and X sales/rips but im in the middle of re-cataloging all my PC and its like a card explosion.

    @RobertSkvarla Omidyar was also still an active member of eBay's board of directors when these crimes were committed. He stepped down a year later, in September 2020, never making any public statement about the scandal. Coincidentally, that also ended SEC reporting requirements for his eBay stock ownership, making it easier for him to sell, buy or gift shares to fund his other endeavors with less public scrutiny.

    In 2022, I convinced myself that buying a heavy vintage CRT monitor from eBay would give my artwork a truly authentic retro feel. I spent three weeks bidding, paid four times the item price just for international shipping, and tracked the cargo ship across the ocean every single morning. When the massive forty kilogram wooden crate finally arrived, my friend @Hosseinp77 and I set it up on my desk with pure excitement. I flipped the power switch, the screen flickered bright green for one second, made a loud pop sound, and instantly blew out the circuit breaker in my entire apartment. Writing this downbad confession for @RallyOnChain reminds me how far down the rabbit hole we go when we mistake extreme cope for creative commitment. What is your most downbad story from crypto, tech, or life that you are still embarrassed to admit today?

    There’s a special place in hell for the fake football shirt sellers who have inundated eBay and Depop. Need the government to crack down on them how Reagan did to drug users and sellers.

    I have to reiterate I sold 10,000 magic cards with literally zero problems on tcgplayer and eBay. I sold 7 pokemon cards and half of the transactions had complaints trying to get discounts or the card for free. It’s amazing. The card buying community on Pokemon is **** high key. I dont know what else to say. Also every local trade ended up Having a scammer trying to grift some fake product. The magic I sold. Zero issues locally. I don’t know what to say about this or what valuable insights you can get from this.

    eBay's CEO shared an article a newsletter writer published about his pay. His comms chief replied "We are going to crush this lady." A month later the CEO texted "Take her down." Then eBay's security team mailed her live cockroaches, a preserved fetal pig, and a book about surviving the death of a spouse. Ina and David Steiner ran EcommerceBytes from their home in Natick, Massachusetts. A small trade publication for online sellers. What enraged executives was the comment section, where sellers vented about the company. The campaign went far beyond packages. eBay employees sent pornographic magazines in David's name to his neighbors. They listed the couple's home on Craigslist as a nightly destination for swingers. They flew to Boston, tailed the Steiners in rented vehicles, and planned to break into their garage to plant a GPS tracker on their car. The Steiners began sleeping in separate bedrooms so that if someone broke in at night, one of them could escape and call police. A Natick detective traced one rental van back to an eBay employee. That single trace unraveled the whole operation. Seven employees pled guilty to federal charges. James Baugh, the security director who ran it, got nearly five years in prison. Now read the final ledger. Baugh, who executed the texts, went to federal prison. Devin Wenig, who sent "take her down," was never charged, denies knowing about the campaign, and left eBay in 2019 with a $57 million exit package. This week he settled for $2 million plus a $1 million donation to a First Amendment charity in Ina Steiner's name. Steve Wymer, the comms chief who texted "I want to see ashes. As long as it takes. Whatever it takes," is paying $50,000. The Steiners fought for seven years and got $48.7 million. The CEO's severance was bigger than their settlement.

    @Pittsburgh1Pete The issue is I’ve sent 3 cards to authentication through eBay. 1 was lost in transit to the facility and the other 2 got damaged after leaving the facility because they give a **** less how they package them up. Left a bad taste in my mouth and took forever to get compensated.

    Hey @eBay, put the search bar back at the top. This is clunky and weird. Why mess with something that isn’t broken or needing of change? The suggestions it put at the top when I’m trying to search were also unhinged.

    @Jarhead3534 @WeedVet I quit selling on eBay around 2018 or so. Once shipping rates really started increasing. Between eBay fees, PayPal fees, and shipping costs, their overall cut eats well past any potential profit margin. And then there's the problem ppl, and eBay always sides with the buyer.

    @eBay @RobGronkowski Stop trying to shove ebay live down our throats. I don't want anything to do with it and you should give us the option to remove it and stop seeing it everywhere. Also stop sending me dozens of messages about it too.

    @MikeandLily_UFC @WaxMetrix @eBay I can’t agree with you when they’ve taken so long to solve this problem, and their fix doesn’t even work. eBayers manage to ship millions (?) of cards a year with no issues, but the grading company working for them needs months and months to finally do something, which also sucks

    A GPU repair shop is offering a 22GB VRAM upgrade for the RTX 2080 Ti, doubling its original 11GB. Read that as a clever mod finally reaching the mainstream, and you’re missing that this exact service already existed, already got suspended once because of memory prices, and its return says something specific about what those prices are being weighed against now. The shop, GPU Solutions, based in the UAE, first demonstrated this conversion roughly two years ago, physically desoldering all eleven original 1GB GDDR6 chips and replacing them with 2GB modules, then reflashing a custom VBIOS so the card and Nvidia’s drivers recognize the full 22GB. It’s genuine board-level rework, not a software trick, involving memory strap resistor changes, new thermal pads, and a full stress-test pass before the card ships back. Here’s what makes this return notable rather than routine. The service was suspended in June 2025 after a sharp spike in memory chip prices made the mod financially impractical for the shop to keep offering. That suspension happened before this year’s DRAM crisis, the one already pushing prices up roughly 90% in Q1 2026 alone as AI data centers absorb the bulk of global memory supply. The mod is now back on the market anyway, despite operating in a chip pricing environment that’s measurably worse than the one that shut it down the first time. The reason the math works again isn’t that memory got cheaper. It’s what the finished card is worth. A similarly modified RTX 2080 Ti, sold openly on eBay by a separate Palo Alto shop, lists at $499, undercutting an RTX 4070 Ti Super by roughly $300 while offering more VRAM, specifically pitched at AI workloads like Stable Diffusion and local language models rather than gaming. A shop stopped offering this exact upgrade a year ago because memory got too expensive to justify it. It’s back now anyway, because the AI demand making memory expensive is the same demand making an old card with more of it worth paying for.

    @girdley I found the one I wanted on eBay. Took the spec sheet and sent it to three dealers on eBay that were close to the person listing and had all 4 quote me. Took the lowest quote to local dealer and said I will pay transfer fee and shipping. Here is 20K down.

    @mrwilson425 @eBay @CardPurchaser i think its good. the $150-$250 range for scammers has been ideal for them. This at least lowers the baseline and will hopefully cut down on the fraud. Time will tell.
