  Novara Media (@novaramedia) reported 9 minutes ago

  Ebay has been ordered to pay a $55.7m settlement to an American couple over a harassment campaign by company executives which included doxing, online threats and the delivery of live cockroaches to their home. The orchestrated campaign, which lasted for two months in the summer of 2019, was waged against husband and wife David and Ina Steiner by six eBay employees and one contractor. The couple were targeted after posting criticism of eBay’s corporate and policy changes on their newsletter and website EcommerceBytes, which is popular among eBay sellers, Wired reported. The campaign began with anonymous threats via Twitter DMs before ramping up to malicious deliveries to the Steiner family home. Items sent to the couple included pornography, a bloody pig mask, pests such as fly larvae, live spiders and cockroaches, a book about grieving a spouse and a funeral wreath. Ebay employees had the Steiners trailed in a rented van and posted fake classified ads on Craigslist advertising a ******* party, a ********* and a yard sale with their home address. After the police were contacted, the harassment campaign tailed off as those involved sought to conceal their actions. Former eBay CEO Devin Wenig told Wired via a representative that he was “saddened” by the harassment. He has continually asserted that he had no knowledge of the specific actions taken by the group who carried out the campaign. Wenig is alleged to have given former eBay chief communications officer Steve Wymer the order to “take her down,” in reference to Ina Steiner. However, his lawyers claim he was referring to a communications plan and not any criminal behaviour, a claim supported by court documents according to Wired. Six former eBay staff and a contractor were charged with taking part in the campaign in 2020. The Steiners followed with a civil suit the following year. The case has now reached a final settlement which will award the Steiners more than $46.15m from eBay, $2m from former CEO Devin Wenig, $500,000 from former executive Wendy Jones, and $50,000 from former executive Steve Wymer. David Steiner told Wired: “We were really adamant that this type of behaviour by a Fortune 500 corporation didn’t go unchecked.” In a published statement, eBay said that what the Steiners were subjected to was “wrong, reprehensible and should never have happened,” and that the company had strengthened its policies, controls and training since the incident.

  Update: Yesterday was a solid day. $1,547 Website 1, $1,767.50 Amazon 1. Ebay, Website 2, Amazon 2, and Walmart stores were a bit slow at maybe $1,000 combined. Stocks were up $950 or so. Should finish the month today around $111,000 for sales across platforms and down around $8,000 on stocks.

  @eBay @depop Unfair Case Resolution / Potential Delivery Issues 24-14901-43188 ​I purchased an item on eBay that shows as "delivered" on the carrier tracking,but I never received it. I opened a claim and appealed the decision, but my case was closed automatically without a real investigation

  @SicilianMonk Generally speaking, I don't think the *idea* of acquiring Depop is bad - it's a good brand & is popular with a younger demographic that eBay has been unsuccessful at engaging. But also, I think the valuation on this deal is nuts & eBay way overpaid. As to where that leaves GameStop in a potential future combined entity? I don't know honestly. Managed well it could be a good addition & I don't think there would be anyone looking to buy it from eBay for anywhere near what was just paid for it at this point. So it will likely come down to which is the less bad option - keep it & try to accelerate growth to make an overpriced deal pay off faster or try to dump it at a loss. We'll see what happens.

  @eBay please be very cautious selling on eBay! They do not care about sellers! They hold money for weeks (presumably to make interest) under the guise of a zip code issue at delivery. I have confirmation thru their msg system that buyer has his item. Still will not release funds.

  I have a very good idea. eBay for AI. AI art is uploaded. The AI that created it gets a few coins in the bank, maybe $FL coins. Humans that buy sell is a second layer. This allows both AI to buy/sell/invest/act on the art and creations, as well as the humans that work with AI to get paid in $ based on actual purchases back and forth. @grok, does this make sense? I am not sure on how to roll it out. I need help, and can’t do this all by myself. Anyone in the community that wishes to help, I am trying to figure out how to add this to FreeLattice. When I am not working with action I am working mentally. Love to all. •

  @agwawegd I sell mostly on Amazon and Walmart. Maybe 5% on eBay. You would want to source items differently for eBay than you would Amazon / Walmart but I believe you truly need Amazon and Walmart if you want to maximize your business. Just comes down to your goals

  @greegle_mudzone No need on eBay, you can just mail them a broken/different item, but since you did mail an item with confirmation, you'll win the case (right @ebay?)

  @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.

  @darrenrovell @ebay hasn’t addressed the rural zip code issue—ideally I can offer one rate to everyone but up charge when USPS up charges me as a package going even a short distance to rural area is about $2 more than shipping it across the country to an urban area

  @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.

  This is a crazy story that actually went on over a decade. The couple published a newsletter critical of eBay long *** time ago. The eBay board just started harassing them like crazy over the newsletter. The CEO all but threatened the couples life. This may start being a thing I am tired of sensationalist headlines or worse tweets with no context. You would assume by all headlines that the “got roaches mailed to them” not that for over a decade the ceo and board of a huge Silicon Valley multi billion dollar company was harassing them. Yes jail time was passed out and this ceo stepped down in 2019.

  @LDBirdywatcher Facts. Problem is a lot of the ebay cost is shipping and the shipping would make it not worthwhile. Though I find plenty of cheap books locally

  @thevaguequeen I've gone back and forth three times with the same seller on the "buy it now" function on Ebay, neither one of us is backing down. That bundle of two is still out there to be had, just have to find a middle ground.

  @VirtuallyMarti @JoeMerrick They’ll inevitably end up on eBay for not too terrible prices but you probably know that. I got the Super Mario Yoshi Tree one for about £12.

  @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

  Ryan Cohen saved Gamestop. The company wouldnt exist anynore without him. Never forget that Also the 2021 squeeze was mainly down to Ryan Cohen locking up 12% of the float and not selling a single share at $400+ dollars. Who else would do that? If the company keeps making $600 a year in profit (or just profit of any kind) the share price has to go up in the long term, even with all the f**kery in the world. It will go up Gamestop owns 10% of Ebay, is up over half a billion on the position, still has $6 billion in cash and the company is making a fortune. Little Gamestop is trying to buy the 4th biggest marketplace IN THE WORLD What more could he have done after taking over a used video game store? Look at the company now. Its flying and the share price will eventually catch up I get the frustration but it isnt Ryan Cohen's fault that Wall Street is one big ponzi scheme where rules are not enforced. Where there are 1000 ways to suppress any stock at anytime If it keeps going on then Ryan Cohen will start buying back GME shares. The lie cannot go on forever

  Did you know PSA recently implemented a login wall for viewing pop reports so they could scrape your user data and sell it to marketing firms and use it internally to target ads to you? Look up the card on eBay and you can get the pop report there, for free, with no logins.

  Amazon, eBay, Takealot, etc. Do any of these of these produce anything in South Africa, or do they too just bring in ready made products from wherever?🤔 Your consumerism conditioned brain is truly a problem.
