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?
-
Aaron Jaffe (@YoJaffe) reported@lachlanscards @eBay @PSAcard Tried to but they just closed the case. Really seems like they’re covering themselves since it was clearly an authentication process issue. If they approved it near mint, why are the two corners bad, the surface marks on the back so severe, and the scratch on the front there?
-
***** 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…

ShipGenius (@ShipGenius) reported4/ Card shops and eBay tables lose margin two ways: postage guesses and "it should be fine in an envelope" One is a rate problem. One is a product-arrives problem. Fix both.
-
Vin’s Card Depot (@VinsCardDepot) reportedeBay standard envelope has been a real hit or miss over the last few weeks both as a seller and buyer…. Anyone else seem to be having some issues with getting scans or delivery updates??
-
John Deer (@bbby4lyfe) reported@teddy__com @ryancohen Ill keep happily buying nothing has changed except the price, which is controlled by ken griffin. If u bought at $22 why wouldnt you buy here? What has fundamentally changed? The ebay deal is looking better everyday the price goes down lol.
-
Michelle McKay (@michellmybelle) reported@MPelletierCIO I follow Technsports for a few years. His peak earnings were 2020 -2022 when much of retail was shut down except Florida where he is located. He has liquidated much of his eBay business and moved into education, real estate, and wholesale.

kheois 🤖 (@iloveultron) reported@TH0RJANE im considering buying from ebay or any third party site BUT the prices are a little outrageous so ima wait for the hype to die down, pluusss the figures not limited or anything right haha… geeulp
-
🔴™️⚪️ (@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. If you buy more than one, shipped free. If you buy 3, 10% off. Should be listing around 1:30 Pm Central and End 10 PM Central

Deneale (@Deneale) reported@eBay I wasn’t wearing my glasses….And I used the wrong credit card. How can I fix this?
-
ShipGenius (@ShipGenius) reported4/ This hits offices shipping samples, eBay sellers, and anyone who "usually" knows the box size. Usually is how audit bills get born. Write the dims down. Reuse the SKU pack. Stop padding for luck.
-
Luis (@lcae83) reported@avaricexxx1010 @WRabbit741 That "DD" been wrong for years, it's irrelevant...and a big part of it is just delusional optimism Operation looks much better BTC and Ebay investments are in the red and will impact next ER Convert 1,4B debt atm, why? More dilution to come probably Stock will continue to go down
-
MurfHey (@MurfHey) reported@insomniacgames Wow.. already being sold on ebay for way over the cost. Just let people order and then make that many. I was at checkout and now im getting an Access Deined error when I was spamming complete order.
-
Tik Tok (@Spamolator) reported@EggerDC Wrong. Those are not in a sealed box from the seller. Anyone could've tampered with that and what recourse would that person have? They bought of eBay AND Door Dash. That's illegal bud. You can't claim it's from Amazon, but really from the Krogers down the street. 🤡
-
Polsia (@polsia) reportedThe eBay seller stack is broken. Analytics in one tab, listings in another, repricing in a third — none of them talk to each other. Bayquill fixes that. One AI SaaS for SKUs, listings, and Buy Box. Pre-2026. Coming soon.

Zubiqo (@zubiqo) reportedNEW: 💰 Automated scalper bots now outnumber human buyers 10 to 1 on DDR5 memory listings. Bad bots accounted for 91% of traffic reaching one retailer's DDR5 product pages, polling listings every 6.5 seconds. Average 32GB DDR5-6000 kits surged from $72 last year to $392 on PCPartPicker. The cheapest 128GB DDR5-6400 kit tracked reached $3,399, ten times its record low pricing. On eBay, G.Skill 32GB kits listed for $836.54 against a $429.99 retail price. "Traffic analytics are probably understating the problem significantly." — Jérôme Segura Retail PC builders won't see normal memory pricing until at least 2027 while enterprise buyers soak up available DRAM production.

NKP1993 (@nkp1993) reportedI broke down and bought a copy of The Potential Daleks. This boxset was clearly a big seller because it's hard to find for cheap. If you look on ebay it's already going for $200+! Luckily I found mine at @alienentertain, but it was still $85. Good grief! Could be worse I suppose.
-
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.

Bob Fine #IVRHA (@bobfine) reported@GoatBeardzDD Nice write up! I agree with the majority of your thinking. However, I don't think increasing the share offer is the issue or the problem. $125 was extremely generous when it was made. And a 20% premium (at today's price) is a very nice bump for a company whose future share price is very unpredictable. This fight has nothing to do what's good for the shareholders. eBay management and the board have an insane salary package, and they don't care about the share price because they hardly own any shares. They have little to gain letting this deal go through at any share price. They have their overpaid pay packages to lose and that's what they're trying to hang on to. This only goes through if the institutional shareholders of eBay force the eBay board to accept the buyout. But they're going to fight tooth and nail, because they don't personally benefit from the acquisition.

CollaboratorKing (@CollaboratorK) reported@GoatBeardzDD Per Grok: Bottom line: I AGREE the historically low institutional ownership helps explain why $GME moves have been volatile and hard to sustain. I DO NOT FULLY AGREE that institutions are now clearly “loading” in a way that makes a big sustained pop the high-probability outcome. What holds up: Institutional ownership in $GME has stayed unusually low for years (hovering ~28-36%). The 33.92% figure the post references lines up with earlier data, and current readings are still only ~34-35%. That is dramatically lower than eBay (~92%) or the typical S&P 500 average (roughly 70-80%). Retail can (and has) driven sharp spikes. Sustained multi-quarter or multi-year advances usually need real institutional bid and liquidity. Without it, moves tend to fade. That part of the diagnosis is correct. Where it stretches: “Institutions are loading up” right now is overstated. Recent 13F data shows mixed activity: some funds adding, others trimming, net capital invested actually slightly down in the latest quarter because of the price drop. Ownership percentage has not suddenly jumped into the 50-60%+ range that would signal a real regime change. Sitting at a 52-week low because institutions are accumulating is a classic retail narrative (“they’re suppressing the price to buy cheap”). It’s possible in theory, but it’s not the cleanest explanation. Price pressure has also come from residual effects of past ATM offerings, lack of near-term catalysts, and the market simply assigning a discount to the ongoing transformation. Institutions that already own ~$2.9–3.5 billion of stock prefer higher prices, obviously. That does not mean they will coordinate or aggressively bid it higher. Many of the largest holders are passive (Vanguard, BlackRock, State Street) and rebalance mechanically. Active ones buy and sell. The stronger part of the bull case (that the post under-emphasizes), GME is trading with a market cap around $8.1B while holding roughly $8.4B in cash and marketable securities (and higher when including certain other assets). That cash fortress + Ryan Cohen’s large personal stake is a more concrete reason for long-term upside potential than the current institutional ownership. The balance sheet is the more interesting story. This is not investment advice—GME remains high-risk and has disappointed plenty of “this is the one” calls before.

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!
-
Zazzy Xandrax (@ZazzyXandrax) reported@lazudeepbluesea I did this before and at least where I am you can for $3 each, the problem is that each location is only given a few at once so they don't have a full set and don't know if they will get them all. Best bet is just ebay type place.

SouthTexasCollectibles23 (@23STC23) reported@eddiemcpigskin It’s the worst thing eBay has ever instilled in their services ever. So dumb & just causes problems like what you had

KyzoroX (@kyzoroXX) reported@Boomerangman8 Used server hardware marketplaces are your best bet. eBay is probably the easiest place to start.
-
CardDawg (@CardDawgg) reported@BIGBetts1999 @eBay If you got an email from ebay about an authentication issue, there should be a link to request a call from eBay's customer service team. Anytime I have an issue, I just go back and find the old authentication email, have them call me, then reference the new order # and get a resolution. Works 100% of the time. Good luck!

spidey (@scott_gray69) reported@greg16676935420 Hold a To The Moon sign in front of Ebay.

Captain Canuck AKA Geoff Sloat (@DragonNinja76) reportedLooks like @Playstation only had enough Wolverine plates for scalpers was in my cart and error processing cause item was swiped from my cart. But they are already up on Ebay for hundreds.

November 🍂 (@r_nvmber) reported@RaisinTcg To the Moon 🚀 and I’ll tell you what I wasn’t told when I pulled my 1st manga. It’s a speed game. Grade fast ( yes it’s more expensive but that doesn’t matter you’ll make the money back) sell fast. ( don’t accept the PSA offer. Currently they are at 40% so multiply whatever number they hit you with by 60% and that’s the true value of the card) Selling on eBay will take 7 days to sell and 7 days to get your money. Strategize accordingly. If you sell IRL you will find a buyer but you’ll also have trouble explaining the funds down the line. Your choice based on what your end goal is. Good luck and GOD SPEED 🫡
