    @HSkeptical @tommy2lightning @karenvaites You think kids these days care about their grades?! This is the problem! Teachers still think that the grade is the inspiration. Teachers don’t inspire anymore. They’re the low rung on the ladder. Why would kids listen when their buddy is reselling kicks on eBay making $1m/year.

    @eBay The seller even told me: “We apologize for the title which we were not the author of and did not write. We will not be able to issue this return.” But eBay policy says sellers remain responsible for listing content created using eBay tools. @eBay, please explain this

    yo eBay just started nuking a ton of those inhand listings for the leaked Pokémon TCG 30th Anniversary cards and merch 🚫 TPCi hit them up about the unauthorized drop and now they’re wiping the listings under the Stolen Property Policy. Sellers are getting messages saying the 30th Anniversary stuff ain’t even been officially distributed or dropped through legit channels yet 👀 eBay’s also saying these products probably came from outside the normal manufacturing pipeline. They’re telling sellers not to relist unless they can prove they got it from an authorized source 📄 this comes after weeks of 30th Anniversary product floating around online way before the official release, with people cracking packs and posting openings all over socials. PokeBeach said the earliest openings were popping off in Australia first, then other countries started showing up later 🌍 just the latest move from TPCi trying to shut down all the early sales through shady channels before the real drop 🚫

    @Decentguyusedto Gauntlet was the GOAT. Loved that game. I regret not buying an old Gauntlet machine that was for sale on ebay many years ago. It may have caused trouble in our marriage having this take up room in our house, but...GAUNTLET!

    Here's something of interest to anyone with Guitar and Amp Buying Syndrome (an undiagnosed but real problem with some of us!). I was looking at some kingsley pedals on Reverb many of the *used* pedals were listed at $200+ above their price brand new on he Kingsley website. This just goes to show: Always do your homework. A lot of gear on Reverb/Ebay has its price hiked to make a quick buck.

    @hdreport Yes, it's worth it. I found a Sony UBP-X700 at a thrift store the same as you, with no power cord or remote. For $6. Thankfully I had a working player and remote at home that I bought at retail that I could immediately test the thift find with. After running it though a series of tests, I found no issues, and ended up with a backup player. 👍 Because I like to have a complete backup solution, I ended up buying a new old stock OEM Sony power cord and original remote for the backup thifted player on eBay.

    Is @eBay card scanning totally broken? Anytime I scan a card it now does something completely way off or my last typed search

    @aeugh989 @DCOfficial @Disney That’s crazy to think about Unfortunately, eBay told me there wasn’’t any wrongdoing (prolly cause he took it down), so i can’t get justice for the other art hes got on there, but it at least motivated me to get print accounts going so i can avoid this

    @afterhoursdrea damn. All bad. You've got a few months to track it down, then if you don't want to make it to that one, or potentially eBay it.

    Ann Makosinski was 15 when a friend in the Philippines told her she had failed a year of school. Her family could not afford electricity, so there was no light to study by after dark, and the daylight hours were not enough. Makosinski, in Victoria, British Columbia, had been playing with Peltier tiles since a grade seven science project. A Peltier tile makes electricity when one face is hot and the other is cold. She ran the numbers on the heat coming off a human palm and found there was more than enough. Then the problem. The tiles gave plenty of power and almost no voltage, nowhere near what an LED needs. She bought more on eBay, redesigned the circuit, and put transformers in to lift the voltage into range. The body of the flashlight is a hollow aluminium tube. Your hand warms the outside of the tiles. Air moving through the middle keeps the inside cool. The gap between those two temperatures is the entire power supply, and it holds a steady beam for about twenty minutes. No batteries. No charging. No sunlight required, so it works at night in a house with no grid connection, which was the whole point. She won her category at the Google Science Fair in 2013 and went on to build a mug that harvests the waste heat of a cooling drink to charge a phone. A flashlight is a solved problem, unless the thing you cannot get hold of is a battery. Her friend needed light after sunset and had a working pair of hands the whole time.

    @eBaySupport You're enabling a scammer to steal money! You ignored my photo evidence, closed my case, and told me to contact an abusive seller who shut down my return and tried an upsell scam. Fix this fraud or I'm filing with the FTC, AG, BBB & local news today! @eBay

    @premiercards_2 I'm dealing with an issue right now in regards to authenticity... see my most recent post. Basically eBay authenticated a card and I had it sent directly to PSA for grading and it's now coming back N9 meaning they wont grade it. Such a mess

    @CardPurchaser Idiots that don't use the Ebay Envelope system that puts tracking to the customer. This complicates issues and doesn't put the customer in the loop. This is the one way I will never buy from anyone again.

    The market has already voted: GME is down ~28% since the bid was floated in May, while eBay is up over that stretch. Investors clearly aren’t loving the “buy a company 5-6x your size” plan.

    @CGC_SI @tohardtoocall Some lucky guy beat me to a newstand issue for $10 about a month ago on eBay. From the photos it looked like a solid 8, maybe better.

    I spent the entire day at home yesterday. Like didn’t leave once. I legit don’t know the last time that’s happened. 10-20-30 years. I cooked, cleaned, bought coins on eBay, and took 3-4 naps. Might go down as the greatest day I’ve had.

    @Xbox_SUPERFAN Eh it was def bots / the limited supply, many eBay sellers know they can’t list a pre sale as it will get taken down. Xbox made a huge mistake marketing this so much to only release 25k units as well imo

    @Lammyisback The worst ten years 35-45 included losing both my parents and both my in-laws, two babies in 19mths, both via c-sections, lockdown whilst both babies were toddlers alongside perimenopause. Tried working, broke down. Now selling things on ebay for a living. 👍🏼

Agent Scott Windish then opened my car glove box and took 3k cash and took my phone on the way to Wells Fargo and we waited at the Wells Fargo waiting for the teller in line for 10 min and he made me say the teller write a 39.000 dollars cashiers check under SECRET SERVICE and after they took me to STARBUCKS and made me sign paperworks… Need our money back 39k was seized as check , 3 k cash and 15 attorney fees .

    @thestreamingdev @alxfazio 256GB RAM M3 Ultras are still selling on Ebay NIB for ~8-9k even this morning. Unless we magically get more RAM production in the next 12-18 months prices won't be coming down. Maybe after that.

    i found the first few issues of the OG run of CF at a fleamarket after EVS was trying to start **** with my friends, I put them up on ebay just to get rid of them not only did I lose money, ebay eventually had to force the winning bidder to actually pay

    @HagaEme @cryaboutitboy The point is to not purchase anything that will put money in Sony playstation's pocket. People are purchasing second hand games from ebay and such. And showing no PSN activity by disconnecting from the internet to show the scope of players participating in the outage. More or less.

    @CarrMillite @RoyalMail Royal Mail are shocking. I sold something on eBay. Packed it, sent it and Royal Mail lost it. Refused to reimburse me and said it was eBay’s problem. EBay say it’s Royal Mails issue. I had to refund the parcel even though it was not my fault. I’m down £70 now
