  I use Walmart delivery for everything as I don’t trust Amazon or EBay…I order groceries once a week..I have ordered furniture WHICH WAS DELIVERED for FREE and I rarely have any problems..My deliverers are polite friendly and courteous..I have used Walmart delivery for 3 years and once my bill was over $200.00 and Walmart refunded my money for no reason..Your problem has to be with the store you order from..It might be to your advantage to go in to the store and nicely complain..

  @bigwerms Side notes, do you know ebay in Europe doesnt have the $0.78 PWE option. Thats why no low end cards can be sold online and nobody seems to fix that issue.

  "Brands are losing 3-10% of their top-line revenue to counterfeiters, dupes, and unauthorized resellers." @oliverbrocato, Founder of Bustem, says "Even David Protein has 12 one-to-one clones of their website." "When you start making money online, people bite at your heels to take a piece." "It's worse in ecommerce because there are basically zero barriers to entry. Anyone can screenshot your product image and rip you off." It shows up in a dozen ways: - Counterfeit one-to-one dupes from Temu, Alibaba, etc. - Unauthorized resellers on Amazon, eBay, Walmart. Sometimes selling right on your own ASIN, so the customer thinks they're buying from you. - Full clones of your website. - Keyword ad hijacking. Bad actors run ads on the real brand's name and rank #1-5, siphoning off traffic that should've been yours. - Ripped Meta ads run against you. Since Meta is an auction, that drives your own CPMs up. The Bustem fix is a blend of software, scrapers, AI agents, and automation. Backed by a team of human analysts who hunt down the bad actors and get them removed. All without hiring a lawyer and spending six figures and three years in court. @ecommcowboy is live M-F at 12P CT.

  Alani Nu has the kind of problem every consumer brand wants - $CELH Alani Nu just dropped its Halloween lineup and the response has been absolutely nuts. Witch’s Brew, Ruby Apple and Voodoo Vanilla Elixir are selling out, TikTok and Instagram are full of people loading their carts with multiple cases and hunting for stores that still have inventory, and secondary market markups are already appearing on places like eBay. At Sam’s Club, there have been reports of Witch’s Brew selling out in less than an hour. Scarcity has a funny way of becoming its own marketing campaign. Every empty shelf, bulk buy video and resale listing becomes another advertisement for the product… Meaning more social proof, more FOMO, and more people searching for the next restock. What makes this even more interesting is that Witch’s Brew isn’t new. It’s a returning seasonal flavor that Alani has managed to turn into something closer to an annual product drop. Consumers know it’s coming, wait for it, stock up when it arrives and post when they find it. And this isn’t happening in a vacuum. It’s landing while the underlying Alani brand already has serious momentum, now with PepsiCo’s distribution machine behind it. Following a blowout Q1, with roughly 60% yoy pro forma growth and more than 100% growth in tracked channels, Alani generated about $364m of Q2 net sales, up 21% yoy, while U.S. retail sales in tracked channels grew 55.7%. We’ve seen a version of this playbook before with $ELF Glow Reviver Lip Oil became one of elfs major launches during FY24, right as the broader brand was gaining enormous momentum. That year, elf grew net sales 77% yoy, gained ~300 bps of market share and crossed $1b in annual sales for the first time. The point isn’t one lip oil or a few seasonal energy drinks. It’s what happens when a breakout product lands inside a brand that is already gaining distribution, shelf space, awareness and market share. The HIT product brings new consumers into the franchise, generates millions of dollars of organic attention and gives retailers another reason to allocate shelf space. And once consumers come in for that product, some of that attention inevitably spills across the rest of the portfolio. The best product launches don’t just sell product. They make the entire shelf more valuable

  @4Miathebrave If you are going to purchase physical copies, I suggest the nitro store! You can find the copy you want to purchase, give the link, title and price to a proxy or middleman who will purchase it, store it until you pay for shipping and then send it to you! Or, you could obtain a Japanese address for free with a packaging forwarding service, make a nitro store account yourself, pay yourself, and then have it forward to you with no middleman required! There is also j-list, based in America, that sells the offical english versions of the games! It’s all in eng, is easy to navigate, and is domestic for you, so no proxy required. eBay is full of resellers and scalpers who buy up all the stock, and resell it for higher prices. If you have issues with limited stock always being sold out, please do not support or buy from the scalpers and resellers on eBay, as that will just make the issue worse. Good luck!

  As of today, I have nothing saved for later. Nothing saved on Instagram. No watchlist on Netflix, HBO, whatever. No Amazon or eBay wish list. No articles saved in Chrome. No bookmarks on X, nothing saved on Reddit. No screenshots of things to read or photos for my moodboard. I keep one simple excel where I jot down books and films, with full awareness that I've already read the books I was supposed to read and seen the films I was supposed to see. I'm full of knowledge, full of inspiration. I refuse to absorb anything new, anything new only slows me down from the thing I actually have to do: create. All I care about now is getting what's inside me out into the world, as writing, as photography, in whatever form it takes.

  @CardsMax Should have to pay immediately IMO. If there is an issue with paying within 24 hours the buyer should reach out and let the seller know. When I used to sell on eBay, and most items were pretty low end after about 24 hours my success rate of being paid was like 10%.

  @ShaqMaadWolf If they do a larger print, the “value” of the art goes way down in their eyes meaning that the idea of exclusivity doesn’t matter. That’s the way I see it, and I still think it’s a dogshit view when ppl on ebay are throwing up 12 copies for 800 dollars lmfao

  You’re definitely going to see these on EBay soon, which absolutely blows. This way of buying tickets may get shut down sooner rather then later

  @YtDevilYtDevil @CardGameNomad That's a manufacturer defect usually. If you've been around you'd see this 1000x over. Prismatic 3pack blisters where notorious for this. Just go look on eBay at all the 3pack blisters more often than not they have three issue of coming apart at the bottom.

  Cash Flow Files (@CashFlowFiles) reported 37 minutes ago

  A 21-year-old student needed money for college. So he created one of the dumbest-sounding businesses imaginable: He sold pixels on a website for $1 each. 5 months later, he had made $1,037,100. Here’s how: In 2005, Alex Tew was worried about taking on student debt. He had no big audience. No investors. No revolutionary technology. He just had an idea: Create a webpage with 1,000,000 pixels. Sell every pixel for $1. Businesses could buy blocks of pixels, put their logo on them, and link back to their website. Simple math: 1,000,000 pixels × $1 = $1,000,000 The problem? Nobody knew the site existed. So Alex convinced friends and family to buy the first few blocks. After the site made its first $1,000, he pushed the story to the press. That changed everything. The weirdness of the idea became the marketing. People weren’t just buying ad space anymore. They were buying a piece of an internet experiment everyone was talking about. More press created more traffic. More traffic made the ad space more valuable. More advertisers created an even crazier-looking homepage. Which created even more press. It became a loop. By the end, 999,000 pixels were sold. Instead of selling the final 1,000 for $1 each, Alex auctioned them on eBay. Winning bid: $38,100. Total gross revenue: $1,037,100. (Wikipedia) The lesson isn’t “go sell pixels.” That opportunity worked because it was novel. The lesson is better: Sometimes the product isn’t what makes the money. The story around the product creates the distribution. And distribution can turn something almost worthless… into something people fight to buy.

  @EepyEwpert it depends! If you were getting tracking before and now you're not, that is an issue. If you haven't had a tracking number this whole time, they probably sent the package without a number. I would still probably file something with ebay or reach out to the seller because 1/2

  My garage is a nerds *********... Anyone interested? Shoot me the right number and I'd let it all go. The only problem is I dunno what that number is till I hear it lol. I'll drive the whole lot out of state if need be. The next couple weeks I'll be going through it and pricing everything. I'm sure there's some unicorns in there. Once I have all that done we will be setting up an Ebay page in my father in laws name to sell it all unless someone scoops it up before all that. I can't even fathom how much he spent on all this... @Wizards_DnD @Wizards

  @aphysicist The bigger issue is banks and governments buying their IT spares secondhand on eBay. Once that stock is gone there will be severe implications for billions of people. I've got a list of about 6 banks no one should go near. They're a serial cable away from catastrophe.

  People really upset when I followed through with exactly what I said I would after people were maligned about telling the truth. You bunch of weak minded people. You wanted a pity party and when you got the truth you want to blame me for doing exactly what I said I would do- Get the death certificate and show you since you want believe the bullshit. I’ve never backed down from a debate or a confrontation. Never. Ask Carissa, the jealous stalker, who went through my eBay account to find my fascinating affinity for American pottery. Weak people sit and whine. String people get the proof and prove you’re weak.
