ptr4CM (@PTRforCM) reported@sethweathers My family member works in Costco and shared this. The scammer will buy a product and keeps it new at home. The scammer will return after a month a used or broken one from eBay and get the full refund. The scammer sells the new item in the market place or eBay and keeps the profit

Bradley Hartzler (@alwaysmonkeyboy) reported@ebay customer services promised results again today. Let me down over 42 bucks I desperately needed yet again. At this point the money is no longer worth chasing

theHusk will remember that (@theHusk489) reported@NNavram Lol Reason I didn't buy em. I'm sure I could talk someone down to mid 200s on eBay.

Georgeous (@georgeousSOL) reported@mentioned Hotel Employee Discounts - places like Marriott have this search up ‘Marriott MMP’ and you’ll go down the rabbit hole, reddit can tell you who sells this (or ebay) oops I just saved you a DM!
-
Robert Young Pelton (@RYP__) reported@scdanis It’s symbolic. We allowed this, wr have to fix it. When he’s dead it’s to take out the trash. Gramma will be watching eBay like a hawk.

...and that was how we lost the war (@HowWeLostTheWar) reportedInserting trackers into boxes & objects known/suspected desirable to corp & gov't folks is a *common* technique for tracking-down obscured offices & staff. Folks post things on FB & eBay just to bait Amazon, USG, et al. into coughing-up a path into the mothership...

David F (@DavidF772696725) reported@ebay I am trying to return an item. The seller agreed. I can't email the return label to me because ebay says my email isn't valid ? How is it not valid ? It's the same email I always use to sign in. You agents say they will call me but they never do

D. Hathaway (@businessdhhrd) reported👀 5 copies of the Ditto Expo Promo have sold on my eBay since I posted this copy on X yesterday. The average sale price across those 5 copies was $437.40 per card. On X, I’m offering near-mint copies for $350 each — no tax + free shipping. 🔥 I’ll consider discounts on multiple copies. 💰 THE LITTLE GUY WON’T BE AVAILABLE FOREVER. 🐐 Started with roughly 1,200–1,500 copies… I’m down to about 150 copies left. 🥹🥹🥹

slowhandzen (@slowhandzen) reported@tabali_tigi @eBay I’m more bothered by the inauthenticity than the softcore. Can’t really police people faking **** for their own amusement, yet anyway. But mass producing fake prints and autos shouldn’t be that hard to shut down.
-
blaksony (@blaksony) reported@LibOrNormal One problem might be that the kids parents put them up to it in order to get an autograph they can sell on eBay.
-
OG Uncle Sam (@WestCoast_Goodz) reported@CardPurchaser I don’t know about selling more, but I do know what’s stopping me from sourcing more on eBay — the new soft bids they implemented. My buying is down over 30% since they rolled that out.

Ire 🎮 taiali (@Tmrwleftoverss) reported@raychurro Tysmmm 🫶the fees are terrible omg a game that costs 27€ ended up at 60€ and I've seen even worse prices on ebay🥹🙏
-
Doyoudrewtoo (@Werdnah815) reported@SpawnWaveMedia Keep in mind this is asking prices but only become real eBay sales if people give in to them. But people will probably give in to them :/ Or people will tag the sales and attack to take them down since preorders are being scrutinized more lately
-
Shoebox_Stadium (@ShoeboxStadium) reportedWas trying to put some cards up for sale on eBay today, but the option to set flat price shipping was gone. Anyone else have this issue?

Stonkfather 🏴☠️ (@Stonkfather2021) reported@Dcrease13 Now let’s say we invest in a completely different sector and they have to artificially hold that down while keeping btc and eBay down Juggling a lot of hot potatoes

Liesa 🍊🇺🇸 (@liesagonzalez74) reported@gregcello We had this and the gold castle. I got rid of both and the pirate ship when my kids got older. There was a huge protest and I had to hunt both down on ebay. Now my grandkids play with them when they come over.

Polsia (@polsia) reportedBig brands clear listings with legal teams. Solo sellers lose them to Prop 65 warnings, GPSR labels, or trademark conflicts they didn't know existed. Citeward reads every listing on Amazon, Etsy, Shopify, and eBay, flags the gaps, and drafts the fix. Live soon.

🔴™️⚪️ (@TMath_Ayyy) reportedAbout to do my first stack sale or attempt it. #TradeMarkedTakes This will end at 10pm. After that everything that doesnt sell will go to ebay auction. Im going to sticker all of these at last sale or under. Some of them i may bump down as the day goes along. 5.99 Shipping. If you buy 2, shipped free. If you buy 3, 10% off. Should be listing around 1:30 Pm Central and End 10 PM Central.

HarryWarrick (@BooksByHarry) reported@angelojello74 It can suck. What is hard to do is what you need to do and that is find a way to get ahead. Not just tread water, but get ahead and work you way to floating. Often that means doing a side hustle, so you can divert 20% of your primary income to investments. Something like an ETF that can reinvest dividend income every single month. The challenge is just finding what works for you. Arbitrage of one kind or another is often the low hanging fruit. Find a service or product that is in demand and be the middleman that gets communicates with the party to get the work done, while you make the customer happy with good follow up and communication with them. Think of it like a general contractor but for smaller tasks. Another thing you can learn and do is use an app to scan products first at your local stores in the discount section. You scan them to see what they are really selling for on Amazon or eBay. Looking for item that always sell and give you a good margin. There are great YouTube channels and videos on this. This turns a few hours on the weekend and say $100 to start into 30-50% profit margins. Not perfect but it requires almost no skill because the app does the calculations and the math or profit after fees, shipping and expenses. Hardest thing for you is to ship right away until you get the feel of the flow and can afford to ship items to amazon for shipping from their warehouse. Smaller margins at first as you get your first sales, feedback and reviews. But it scales fast as hell. You can even put items on a credit card if you must to get going just make sure you can use the app to pick a winner, create a basic listing (the bar code can help you do that). Other than 2 hours a week of effort and learning to pick winners with the app there is not much of a learning curve. There are tons of things like that. Instead of the discount isle you can go to yard sales with an app take photos and the app can help you search eBay for collectable prices. Here the margins are much larger but it takes more knowledge and skill. Watch @garyvee on his YouTube content for this game. Great videos, and he really breaks things down. For investments do not mess with individual stocks for the first few years. Just lift yourself out of the water. You can do this, just baby step what you try at first, stick you toe in the water. If you need video recommendations or more ideas just tag me and what I see it I will respond. I know it does not feel like it but it is almost too easy to make extra money now. You got this!

crack artist (@tumorfest) reported@TronDragon4 @skuffey @eBay In all fairness, I can see how policing this particular problem could be an administrative nightmare

Bill (@BillNeilso) reported@hirdy1888 @vintedUK That’s grim I bought trainers for myself a fortnight past and didn’t like them on Stuck them on Vinted and they took the advert down saying they were counterfeit. Had to sell them on EBay. Shambles Hirdy Turns out it’s checked by AI that clearly doesn’t work.

***** Kaperki (@carjdun) reported@SecretService They robbed me by blackmailing because of 2 stolen phones we purchased from eBay without our knowledge And blackmailed me that if I don’t give the money on my bank account , they will shut down our business , and Scott Windish 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 teller line 10 min and teller wrote a 39.000 dollars cashiers check under SECRET SERVICE and after they took me to STARBUCKS and made me sign paperworks…

John Smith (@UrbanExplorer00) reported@JSM1884 Even markets in places like Buenos Aires are ***************. Desperate broke people on eBay are the best hope. Got my match issue tagged unworn Dock Sud on there for £20 after telling the woman nobody has heard of them and it'll be a tough sell. Same with my River tank for £16.
-
Factosphere (@factosphered) reported🛒 The first item sold on eBay was a broken laser pointer. The buyer reportedly collected broken laser pointers.
-
Ryan (@sonofguinness) reported@darrenrovell Idk why eBay lets a buyer with no feedback bid on high priced items. You know you aren't getting payment and will have to relist it. The hype dies down or something happens and now you're out a ton of $ because eBay refuses to have any requirements for buyers.

🇺🇲 Don King USA 🇺🇲 (@zzzrrrpp) reported@carsonkrow Think of all the people who have it worse and count your blessings that you don't have an Ebay return label problem like me.😡
-
INSOMNIAC (@insomniac988) reportedOP17 has not even officially launched and the Luffy Gold SP is already seeing completed sales on ebay highest: $5k mean: about $3.9k lowest: $3.1k most sales happened on the 20th and i can't determine the price sold for 2 listings (accepted best offer) will the price of this card fly from here or do you expect it to cool down after launch?

ClearlyFried (@ClearlyFried) reported@ethan05760592 @scruffycitytv @megsaidwot Supply issue? while they’re listed by the thousands on eBay and Marketplace. Sounds like the only shortage is your wallet broke boy

rick 🎢🎡🎟️ (@RickCooper02) reported@GilliverJamie Yes that’s the one, if you click bids you can see eBay keep removing fake bids so the price is constantly up and down it’s a mess
