    @CardPurchaser First time I was victim to the refund because of a cheap buy. And my first negative review left. Bought on ebay for like 8 years with no problem before this.

    @KaB0uLi @eBay Wow, please stay in touch with me. They never provide tracking either. I always have to contact them to get it. They seem like an honorable company, but you never know in this hobby. I’ve never had any issues with them previously. Hoping this is an @eBay incompetency issue. I obviously want the card. It was expensive. Naturally I’m concerned about. Especially since I purchased it prior to the Knicks winning the Championship, and Brunson winning MVP.

    UPDATE on Case 5374687210: eBay customer service has now stated in writing: “this was not your fault.” They acknowledge their own system caused the tracking data to be lost. Yet they are still denying my appeal citing a 30-day limit. You admitted fault. Now fix it. @AskeBay @eBay #eBaySeller

    @CPorterMusic A more common issue you're going to run into with collecting used discs is that a lot of them are going to be scratched pretty bad and even if they're resurfaced with filler or a buffer the damage will still be there even if it doesn't look like it is. I wonder if all these cases of disc rot people claim to have are just old blockbuster games people got off of eBay.

    Every repricing tool screams every time a competitor blinks. That's not intelligence — it's noise. Built Stance to fix that. It watches your competitors 24/7 across Amazon, eBay, Walmart, and Google Shopping, adjusts your prices automatically, and speaks only when it matters:

    @SwedishGamester @MuseumCommodore I bought most non working off ebay, fixed them but couldn't bear to sell them "oh that one is a rare board revision, can't sell that one. No, that one has a ceramic VIC-II". Mild OCD is a terrible affliction...

    It's crazy that the box of my Pokemon cards my brother sold on eBay for $60 when I went to college could be a down payment on a house today.

    Tech2000 💿 (Blake Powers) (@ucegotthejuce) reported

    @TechnicallyTee The problem is this: You buy a game physically and you don’t like it, you can sell it. You buy a game physically that your friend doesn’t have, you can take it to their house and put it in his console to play. You buy a game digitally you can’t do either of those. You can buy a 3 year old game on ebay or at GameStop for $20 or less, without a disc version this gives the digital storefront the opportunity to keep the price as high as they want it to be for as long as they want it to be because you literally have no choice but to buy it there. When a game inevitably gets delisted from digital storefronts and there’s no discs, how will that game ever be played again once the internet on your PS6 quits working in 20 years? (Example: If Spider-Man Shattered Dimensions never had a disc and only was digital and got delisted on PS3, how would anyone ever play it again?) NOT TO MENTION, the people that DO already have a bunch of PS4 and PS5 discs would have to completely re-purchase their entire library for those two consoles digitally if the PS6 ships without a disc drive.

    @TheForza_ @switchstock Not that simple. Not only would It would be nearly impossible to enforce and cost a lot to monitor everyone, but shops could just sell under a different name on eBay or tcgplayer. They also aren't the distributors. I would say the distributors are a large part of the issue

    @DaveKluge Good job! My USB/Aux port on my 2012 Toyota RAV4 went out, and the local shop quoted me $200 to fix it. I found the part online, bought it on Ebay - new - for $15 with free shipping. It took 2 minutes to replace with a YouTube how-to video.

    @BlixkGod @Gumidess Well downloading some games gives you the whole game locally. In those instances, you digitally bought physical media (seeing the same is physically written in your hard drive instead of having physical permissions to enter a server) the no disk thing is really their "yellow ebay

    @erickstevens82 Eric I just read that Sony is going to stop making physical games. Terrible news! I play my NBA2K25 nonstop... and I paid a fraction for it on eBay ... I presume the owner of it upgraded to 2k26. Games will be far more expensive without physical copies.

    CHINESE DEV PULLED $2,140,000 RUNNING AI ON 200 DEAD LAPTOP BOARDS HE BOUGHT FOR $27 EACH Intel Core i5-10210U. 4 cores, 8 threads, 15W TDP. Whiskey Lake, 2019. Salvaged from broken IdeaPads on Yahoo Auctions. Most makers wait for a used 3090 to appear on eBay. He soldered a rack of laptop guts and let it hum. Pause at 0:12 — Core Temp reading 15 watts across four cores at 100% load, no case, no fans. The moat isn't a datacenter. It's a spool of dead laptops. Full swarm in the video below.

    AMERICAN MAKER IS BUYING BROKEN XBOXES FOR $187 AND TURNING THEM INTO A 16GB GDDR6 AI FARM ON HIS KITCHEN TABLE One kitchen. One floral tablecloth. Six gutted consoles. Xbox Series X APU. AMD Zen 2 8-core. RDNA 2, 12 TFLOPS. 16GB GDDR6 unified per box. $187 broken on eBay, one blue Ethernet cable each. Most devs drop $479 on a single RTX 4060 Ti 16GB and stop there. He gutted six dead consoles for $1,122 total and got six times the VRAM. Pause at 0:03 — a $500 Microsoft SoC sitting next to a coffee cup on a floral tablecloth. The AI moat is a dead console and a screwdriver. Microsoft built a $499 inference node and thought it was a game machine. Full teardown in the video below.

    AJC claims gacha mechanics will continue to revolutionize the game of collectibles and TCGs. "If you try to like trade these assets in the real world, it sucks" "I go to target to go buy Pokemon sold out, run over to Best Buy sold out. Go to my local card shop and it’s marked up like 30% over retail price. So I go on eBay, next thing I know I actually bought a scam listing. Wasted days and time and money" "Let me just go pull up Collector Crypt, spin the gacha a couple times, see what I get. Lot simpler process, lot easier, makes it far more accessible. I can trust and verify like hey they actually hold these assets, here’s like a tokenized receipt" "Putting these assets on chain is a literal 200x improvement over existing market structure, which is massive right" "The gachas are kind of the Trojan horse for that. These gacha companies are bringing the cards on chain and they’re the ones doing the magic. They solved the cold start problem and they're gonna enable a lot more interesting use cases"

    Following up with some honest feedback about @trylastpack as I deposited some money and spent some time playing myself: Overall, pleasant experience, UI/UX is great on mobile + fast. I have not tried laptop/PC. PACK RIPPING EXPERIENCE Enjoyed the gamified experience, and the casino-like slot machine mechanic where cards roll onto various coloured cards before reveal. Each colour represents a different type of rarity. As for pull rates, I did ok - hit some nice cards; nothing amazing but some that will look nice in the binder. Sold back the + EV cards for more spins. Took me 78 packs to rinse $150, and I used the 1/5/10/25 dollar packs. Free packs for every 10 spins, instantly rewarded to your profile. Nice feature. DEPOSITS Easy to deposit money either fiat or crypto. There’s a wide range of crypto options available, one or the highest I have seen. Deposit was instant, I tried both SOL USDC & ETH USDC ON CHAIN VERIFICATION you can review your pulls, verify randomness etc. I took a look at this, and it’s probably the post transparent I’ve seen and true on chain. I have also seen this level of transparency on Your Grails, not sure about others. SHIP OR AUTO BUY BACK AFTER 5 DAYS Interesting (and smart) shipping mechanic to keep the flywheel going + mitigate stock issues. Encourages people to sell back, or ship within 5 days. This prevents stock and sourcing issues and items being held in wallets and not doing anything. (Screen shot on this post) SHIPPING “5 DAYS GLOBALLY” I don’t believe this is possible, as someone that spent 8 years in the transport & logistics industry. Happy to be proven wrong. Would recommend re wording. I personally am in regional Australia at the southernmost tip in mainland. Gonna claim and test it out. This is not a deal breaker SHIPPING COSTS Seem reasonable for now, for me to ship a couple of raw cards it’s $8 USD which is cheaper than doing the same from eBay. SUMMARY Overall whilst I did partner with them for a post, I wanted to share candid feedback as a user. I have done and will continue to do with multiple platforms (give feedback, support good teams, etc). There’s room in the space for everyone providing all is above board and I’m a huge fan of collaboration > competition. I definitely liked the experience, I’d like to see pull rates a bit more and more variety of cute cards in the pool (I’m an avid collector of cute raw. There’s some noise around the risks of “raw” cards and them not having stock on hand and also using stock images rather than the real thing so we know what we are getting. The site explains all are in the warehouse, so I am going to trust this, but would love some transparency surrounding quality of raw. I’ve not had experience in withdrawing or contacting the support yet, so cannot comment just yet. Will I use it again? Absolutely.

    As I look at my well loved, worn and broken toys I think of the USS Flagg aircraft carrier that was mint in box going for $30,000 on EBay, I wonder did I get $30,000 worth of fun out of it? Considering I have been carrying it for 40 years, I think so.

    @WallStreetApes As a capitalist I recommend dispensing all the contents of the vending machine and selling them on eBay for cheap. Go back and get more when they refil the machine. Infinite money glitch.
