  @historyinmemes The public support was so much with Mike, that Microsoft actually had to issue a formal apology statement, admitting they were way too aggressive with a teenager. Interestingly, once things settled, Mike tried to auction the original 25-page cease-and-desist letter on eBay. Bids quickly skyrocketed over $200,000 before eBay restricted the listing due to fraudulent accounts, restarting the auction with pre-approved bidders only. The letter ultimately sold for $1,037.

  So since you don’t seem to understand the beef here @LsTdiecast I’ll lay it out. You killed Kstate, and by being a hypocrite which makes it considerably worse. You can deny it but the screenshots don’t lie. The timing doesn’t lie. You narc’d on them for “scalping” when they were selling for UNDER recently sold eBay prices, and in fact we’re refunding people who WERENT scalping. So they were doing more to combat scalping than your whining like a ***** on here does. But even if they WERENT, it’s ok for you and your “buddy” to justify prices by “recently sold” on eBay. While you criticize and encourage people to harass anybody else selling at a price YOU don’t agree with even if it’s in line with recently sold. That’s hypocrisy. Literally hypocrisy to a T. It’s ok for you and your buddies to sell off recently sold prices but nobody else? And on that same note, you telling people on here to harass eBay sellers is out of line and chickenshit. You try to bully people into selling THEIR stuff for the price YOU wanna pay. That’s not how it works. You don’t get to dictate what somebody sells THEIR item for by trying to force them. Even worse when you do it in the faggoty way of trying to have others do it because you’re a *****. You sure as hell are whining and crying like a **** now with me coming at you..you don’t like it huh? What about all those eBay users you’ve campaigned to harass? No fun when it comes back huh, *******? Thirdly, you always come on here telling everybody to preorder so stuff hits MOQ….then why didn’t YOU preorder? More hypocrisy. Telling people to do **** YOU won’t even do. You’re just mad people are t giving you **** for free. Don’t forget about when you tried to get me to give you **** for free. You’re just not willing to pay. If somebody else is willing to pay more, they get it. That’s how free markets work. Just because you’re a spoiled little ***** doesn’t mean the world owes you anything. You want it, ante up or shut ******** up. The guy who’s willing to pay more obviously wants it more than you then. Your problem Is you THINK you’re some BSD that can bully people into giving you **** for what you want it for but the way you’ve been crying from the light pushback I’ve given you, you’re clearly a giant *****. Cry more about “being uncomfortable”, ******, when you’ve harassed multiple others.

  Dangerous plug adapters. Consumer safety group Electrical Safety First (ESF) tested 14 products from AliExpress, Amazon Marketplace, eBay and TikTok Shop - and found they all failed to meet UK safety requirements. I previously investigated the long standing issue for ITV’s Tonight programme & part of the problem is a lack of High street electrical shops which you can trust to sell you genuine products

  At 22, I dropped out of university because I was struggling with depression. I felt disconnected from myself and had no idea what I was supposed to do with my life. 3 of my friends were feeling lost too. One night, we asked each other a simple question: What do you want to do before you die? We wrote down 100 dreams. Then we borrowed an old RV, bought a camera on eBay, called ourselves The Buried Life and set out to cross off as many as we could. For every dream we accomplished, we promised to help a stranger accomplish one of theirs. Our goal: film a documentary to show our friends. We had Motorola Razrs in our pockets and social media wasn’t a thing. There was no business plan. No audience. No guarantee it would become anything. We were four friends with a list, a camera and a desire to feel alive again. We started with whatever we could do ourselves: We kicked a field goal at a stadium. We started a dance in a public place. We helped a guy get his first truck so he could start a business. Then the project took on a life of its own. People heard about our list and they’d email us offering help. They'd ask for help with their dreams too. So, we kept going, fueled by the response. Years later, the impossible things on our list began becoming real. “Make a TV show” became a series on MTV. “Sit down with Oprah” became a conversation with Oprah. “Write a bestselling book” became a #1 NYT bestseller. But the greatest thing that came from that list wasn’t crossing things off. It was that, at the lowest point in my life, a list of things I cared about gave me a reason to move forward. One dream led to one small action. That action created momentum. And that momentum changed the entire direction of my life. It taught me that the life you want is in your hands; you just have to be brave enough to go get it.

  @Dexerto @ebay is a garbage platform that supports scammers. Several years ago I ordered a cheap, older desktop PC from a seller in California. 👉The Seller waited a full week after the order, google mapped an address that one was street over from mine but still used the same number but different street name; he also misspelled my name on purpose to obscure it 👉He sent an empty envelope with tracking to one of my neighbors. I had to call the post office to track it down. I watched my neighbor pull it from his mailbox 👉I called their support to report the scam; took pictures & sent them in; they did nothing & gave me excuses. I could barely understand them because they were all H1B employees 👉So I called it a loss & left negative feedback detailing the scam & reported him online, spoke to their chat & called for a 2nd time to report the scammer. Nothing happened. 🙃I logged in 2 weeks later & saw that my negative feedback was quietly removed & the scammer was still doing his thing to others. I'll never use them again.

  Asked Carson Hocevar over the weekend about his First Win diecast making it to prototype. It's exciting, but he might have a hard time getting one for himself. "I don't know if you've noticed, it's really difficult to get my diecasts right now. I don't even - It's difficult for me to get them. ... My Mom will get one before me. She hunts them down on eBay and people charge the hell out of her because she'll just buy it." Carson mentioned seeing the Race Win diecast is almost like seeing the car get rolled back out again, particularly given that his real life Talladega winning car has been re-assembled and re-ran.

  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

  @SaxonEternal @MHackman Google — Sergey Brin immigrated from the USSR; Google employs thousands of Americans. Tesla — Elon Musk immigrated from South Africa; Tesla employs Americans in engineering, manufacturing, sales, and more. Nvidia — Jensen Huang immigrated from Taiwan; Nvidia employs tens of thousands of Americans. Stripe — Founded by Irish immigrants; employs Americans in engineering, sales, finance, and operations. DoorDash — Tony Xu immigrated from China; employs Americans and supports U.S. restaurants and workers. Chobani — Hamdi Ulukaya immigrated from Turkey; employs Americans in manufacturing, logistics, sales, and corporate roles. Zoom — Eric Yuan immigrated from China; employs Americans in technology, sales, support, and other roles. eBay — Pierre Omidyar was born to Iranian parents and immigrated to the U.S.; eBay created U.S. jobs and supports American businesses. * Citing Grok (founded by former OPT student) for helping me with this list. Not only are big companies like these founded and/or run by immigrants (all of whom were once international students), but the very products and innovation within them have been the result of international talent — all of which leading to the employment of white Americans. Nobody is saying that the OPT program is perfect, but I fully believe the benefits far outweigh the negatives. Again, I don’t know what industries you’ve been looking at, but big tech exemplifies why the OPT is beneficial to everyone in the US. I can’t speak to other, smaller industries like consulting, so it’s possible there might be questionable stuff going on there — but our argument relates to the $100K fee on OPT workers. I think the root cause of international talent reliance in the workforce is the fact we let go of our standards. The problem starts in households and upbringing. If American households and lower education held our students (myself included) to the same academic standards and rigor as much of Asia, there’d be much less outsourcing. My point is that slapping a $100K fee on OPT employees isn’t at all the proper way of going about fixing the aforementioned root cause, nor is upending the program. The issues start at home and in schools.

  @snorman1776 I don't know. Base commanders and commandants? Who was SecDef in April of 2020? Who was head of the Army? This is 30-60 days after Governors started shutting things down. This is what I call the "fog of war" phase where there was SO much #fearporn and misinformation that our gut reaction was to roll up in a ball. Which we did with great aplomb. ps. if you want to sell your Fauci pillow on ebay, they're going for ~ $28 at the moment.

  You might as well not go to the dentist and fill your own cavities then. Then fire your CPA and let ChatGPT do your taxes. And when your check engine light comes on and you hook it up to a scanner, see what it says and order the parts on eBay and fix it yourself. What a stupid post.

  EBay, former executives to pay $56 million to couple sent cockroaches in harassment campaign EBay and three former top executives have agreed to pay $55.7 million to resolve a lawsuit by a Massachusetts couple who fell victim to a bizarre stalking and harassment campaign carried out by several of its employees in retaliation for their coverage of the e-commerce company in a newsletter they publish. David and Ina Steiner announced the settlement late on Monday, bringing an end to a case they filed in 2021 in Boston federal court after several former eBay employees were prosecuted for targeting them in a cyber-stalking campaign that involved sending the couple cockroaches, fly larvae and a bloody Halloween pig mask. As part of the settlement, eBay agreed to pay $46.15 million to the couple; fund $6 million in charitable contributions to nonprofit organizations; and issue a “strongly-worded” statement about the conduct of three of its top former executives. “We believe this resolution sends a clear message that corporations and their executives cannot engage in this type of misconduct without facing significant consequences,” Christopher Murphy, the Steiners’ attorney, said in a statement. EBay said in a statement that what happened to the Steiners was “wrong, reprehensible and should never have happened.”

  Yes this is true although I think the main problem is the major retailers allowing third party sales on their websites. If Target and Walmart didn’t allow third party sales of Pokemon on their websites there would be a massive shift in the market. The scalpers would have to sell on Amazon, FB marketplace, and eBay and it would really narrow their market. The retailers don’t care tho they make money when they sell it instores and online, then they make money again when the scalpers resell on their websites. Pokemon should renegotiate their contract to not allow those sales on retail websites. The retailers could also do something about the bots. It seems basically it is the retailers that are screwing everything up for us. Trying to say sealed collectors are the reason the market is trash just seems foolish at this point.

  @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.

  The $500 Million and The Broken SEC System This is where your point about the SEC's broken "EDGAR Next" system ties it all together beautifully. 1. The Cost to Exercise: If Ryan Cohen holds roughly 15.6 million warrants, and the exercise price is $32.00 per share, the total cost to exercise all of them is roughly $500 million (15.6M x $32 = $499.2M). 2. The Interview Connection: When Cohen said in recent interviews, "I'm putting $500 million of my own money into this transaction," and then separately mentioned the paperwork hasn't been filed yet, it perfectly aligns with the exact mathematical cost of exercising his 15+ million warrants to fund the eBay transaction. 3. The EDGAR Delays: Because the SEC's EDGAR Next rollout has been plagued with massive technical failures, missing user groups, and delayed processing since its hard launch, it is entirely plausible that his legal team submitted the Form 4 to exercise these warrants and it is currently stuck in the SEC's system, just as you said.
