Eric McCurry (@eric_mcCurry) reported@RussellCartwr18 Thanks man. I'm having trouble finding the robe by itself on eBay, Mercari, and Facebook marketplace. Might try Craigslist too
-
Mojo 🇺🇸 (@QMojo8) reported@OffDaHook35 Sold some slabs at LCS today and narrowed my pc down to a small box. I have a 2000 card lot on eBay to sell the rest. A lot are cards from packs I ripped this year. LCS wouldn’t even look at them
-
Jenny Jen Jennifer VCR Queen (@vcrqueenjen) reported@FoxgirlGoRawr Yep! Overall, I've not had terrible luck with returns given the amount of things I've sold on ebay but it does happen from time to time & for some cursed reason I've had a few returns in the past couple weeks. It's abnormal to have multiple in such a short time and I don't like it lol

ｃｈｅｄｄａｒ (@cheddar420yolo) reported@IndefiniteLT @VibesMBSE it was before my time but part of CARTER lore is they took a rogue wave shifting home ports from northeast to Bangor. a water column came down the hatch and the ship's computer was right there they had to get the replacement computer from ebay that was the story anyway

Mr8000 (@mr8mil) reportedA few weeks back I bought this card from a tip on @enzo_tcg discrod. This card comes from the Blue Trial Deck of FW from 2023, basically one of the first leader cards of all FW. Hard to find in EN, this is the only version I could get my hands on EBay. Even if this card does not meet expectations down the road, I love the “vintagy” look of it. Source and user name: dissociated, thanks for bringing this into attention. Appreciate it!

GiantCrustacean (@BeCrustacean) reported@ConceptualJames Competition for clicks is getting very very comptetitive and the pressure to create consistent media output. Increase in fearmongering and ragebaiting, AI content is driving overall quality down to the lowest common denominator. This happened to Ebay in the 2000's.

Adam Taylor (@adamtaylorl) reportedMe at 20: - £50K/year at Jaguar Land Rover - Acting team leader, dream job by every measure - Watching agency videos in the car park on my lunch break Me at 24: - $100M+ generated on Meta - Scaled a brand in LA from $90K to $2.1M/mo in 7 months - 40+ team members, run from Dubai My first money online was flipping scooter parts on eBay at 13. I opened my own bank account for it. Nobody told me to. I just wanted a bike and needed to make £200 to afford it. Fast forward. Late 2022 I bought an Iman Gadzhi agency course and landed a client in 2 months. They paid £900/month. I was going to say £1,000 and bottled it at the last second. Then 7 months passed and I made £80. In total. I didn't tell my friends what I was doing. I barely even told my family. There was nothing to show anyone, so I just went quiet and kept going. I handed in my notice at JLR in July 2024. Everyone at the factory thought I'd lost it – to them I was walking out of a job people wait 20 years for. So I flew to Bali alone in early 2025. I knew nobody there. I wasn't a huge fan of Bali. Then I moved to Thailand 30 days later. Hit $50K/mo whilst there. Then $100K. Now I'm living in Dubai and the business does more in a month than JLR paid me in four years. The crazy part is I wasn't good at this. I was terrible for a long time. I just kept putting in long hours and watching what happened until some of it started working. And I'm still doing that. The same method, just with bigger numbers. If a 13-year-old selling scooter parts to fund a bike can turn it into this, you're fine. Win each day. That's the whole thing.

Grey (@LeeGrey1105) reported@MaddiesMorgue SAME I NEVER THOUGHT ID HAVE HER, now I just have to try to hunt her boots and skirt down on ebay 😭
-
alex bud (@alex_budimir) reportedAnyone else notice how much better listing has gotten? I hadn’t listed cards on eBay in a while because of the fees and how long it took. Used to be 3–5 minutes per card. Listed a few Laz and Rainiel cards today and the AI had me down to about a minute each. @CardPurchaser
-
slicko (@haribo4me) reported@GoatBeardzDD @MaiDuat31103 When company A acquires company B, doesn’t the stock price of A typically go down while B goes up? So in this case shouldn’t we expect GME to dip if they are successful at acquiring eBay?
-
Just Looking By The Way (@JustLooking_BTW) reported@ChevanceLo1 @TrevorAllenMD @YugiMuto91 Literally just takes a eBay listing & dropping it off at an ups or etc. to sell this thing, like you can’t be this slow to think winning the tournament was what he was referring too
-
0xbonus (@coral_crypt) reported@anglio @eBay eBay’s broken, man. Your tracking should’ve been enough.
-
Victory Gundam V1 (@Gundam_mf) reported@SylusMk2 I found the metal fix on eBay for like 1k Gl, the hummingbird figure is like a mythological creature at this point
-
Andrew (@AndrewMack123) reported@DanzelAlex Just unscrew the panels, and take them down normally! 🤦 Then you can put them up in your next place or sell them on ebay to recoup your losses! 🤦
-
Mr Hankey (@hivanchi) reported@eBay your platform is hurting buyers(im also a seller) The return process is broken. Theres no way to talk to people in the US, either by message or call. Some of your reps read the same script over and over again. Ask you for useless information that leads nowhere.
-
Byron Vallis (@Byronnn6) reported@calvinfroedge Free shipping and eBay fees will knock this down to like $4.5 my friend. Better luck next time
-
Zack Morris (@Palladin0) reported@packaddictsnw Never had an issue w eBay standard shipping once. Most likely buyer being shady

EverydayReseller (@EverydayResell) reportedDay 208 Total sales: $737.96 eBay earnings: $504.99 Buy cost (COG): $82.27 Net profit: $422.72 ROI: 514% Items sold: Electrical equipment, printer ink, printer parts, automotive transmission parts, marine electronics, & a toilet repair component. Another strong day. $737 in sales & over $422 in net profit from just 7 completed sales. What stands out to me is the variety. Electrical, automotive, marine, printing, plumbing, you don't necessarily need to specialize in one category to build a profitable eBay business. You need to get good at finding the right products at the right price. That's still the biggest lesson I've learned through this journey. A $100 sale isn't nearly as exciting if you paid $90 for it. But when you can consistently find inventory for a fraction of its potential selling price, the numbers start working in your favor. Today's $82.27 in COG turned into $422.72 in profit. That's the game. Buy right. List consistently. Be patient. Keep improving. 208 days down. On to Day 209. 📦💪

Carolina24 (@c_collector24) reported@pasch_8759_eBay @CardPurchaser @tm1515152005 Had the same issue yesterday (TWICE) with the same Kirby Puckett card that I even talked to an eBay representative about and he suggested I just relist it? No idea what they’re doing with their new AI filters

Brian (@briansdsea) reported@BosCardHunter Just had an order showed delivered recently and it wasn’t a ES order. My mail that was delivered that day and another eBay package all showed delivered at 1:37 pm at box. This one showed 10:37 am. $4.99 Samad Taylor auto…..so I didn’t make a fuss or go down to post office.

Saul (@SaulSellsStuff) reportedNot sure who needs to hear this but you can spend $100,000+ a month just using Amazon as your source of inventory. You can do this at 40%+ ROI. You can beat section 3s and account health problems. You can sell your inventory on Amazon, Walmart, eBay, Whatnot, TikTok, or locally. If you’re an Amazon seller you can also get a complete P&L, cash flow analytics, ungating support, reimbursements, product monitoring, replen dashboards, FBM tracking, order tracking, and more. For free, then $3 a day. You can be as weird as me and do it all from your phone if you’d like. We are building the most complete software package publicly available. Taking no profits out. Doubling down on team and partnerships.

HowlingHemorrhoids (@DeadlessHick) reportedA funny thing about ebay for me is when I get a wild hair up my *** on buying stuff, like a new HDD to replace a dead one in my server, I'll peruse the auctions with current bids ~50% below market value, and then place a max bid of ~80% market value. Often times I do this, I see that someone else has already placed a higher max bid than I'm willing to do. So I feel like a gremlin running around ebay casually helping sellers and causing the other bidders to lose a chance at a true deal. I got a $420 camera lens for $200 doing this method though.

♋️nahgem💫 (@danisnotesquire) reported@MarButHockey i bought boxes. and cards off ebay. some of the ebay cards are like im buying cards For my sid and geno cards. this is a Real Problem.
-
Number 5 (@NumberFiveAlive) reported@clarkknowscards @phatjer300 @OnlyCharizard If you select “buyer requested cancellation” it will not ding your eBay account. All the other options from the drop down menu do. I lost top rated seller once for cancelling just 2 orders within a couple months.
-
Arekkusu 🐍 COMMS OPEN (@DEMONArekkusu) reportedThey seem to think they are THE Majima yume or want to come across as such, had an issue with me and my merch collecting, thinking I spend a fortune... if they only look at ebay prices, I can see how they maybe think that. lol But in the end...
