  @Dexerto Time to play hardball with these greedy CEOs whole company and franchisees are going down also. I don’t even know how they’ve stayed in business this long, use eBay or official consignment services not some business by that goober Aaron Mcneff with his gay *** mustache

  @Whatnot Never ever purchase anything from @Whatnot . Awful customer service, unhelpful and don’t care at all about their users. I cannot stress this enough, if you are in Canada, completely AVOID this site. Absolutely terrible, I will continue using eBay only.

  A $181K Pokémon auction flipped into a $236K “instant sale” right after the winning bidder allegedly didn’t pay. That alone is raising eyebrows in the high end hobby space. The MBA Black Diamond Black Label Bubble Mew reportedly ended at around $181,000. Shortly after, it was claimed the winning bidder failed to complete payment. The card was then relisted and quickly sold again for approximately $236,000. This all involves Ryan Card House and their handling of the auction process. According to an employee clarification, the original winner may have even bid up to $350K before backing out, which makes the final pricing narrative even harder to reconcile. The issue here is not just the individual transaction, but what it suggests about how high end auctions are being handled. If there were any prior agreements, guarantees, or undisclosed fallback pricing expectations, that would interfere with true price discovery instead of being explained after the fact. That is where concern comes in. Without the infrastructure and safeguards of established marketplaces like Goldin, ALT, or eBay, high end sales can start to distort rather than reflect real demand. Whether everything here is above board or not, the lack of transparency is exactly what erodes trust in the space. People need clean auctions. Not outcomes that require explanation after the fact. #Pokemon #PokemonTCG #BubbleMew

  People ask me all the time why I keep saying $OFFCHAIN belongs in the millions. I don't value projects based on today's candle. I value them based on what they're building, how fast they're executing, and the size of the market they're attacking. Let's start with the obvious. $OFFCHAIN isn't a one feature project. It's building an entire ecosystem around offline payments, privacy, trading, AI automation and crypto accessibility. The team already shipped: -offline transfers -offline stablecoin rails -AI agent -NFC payments -Amazon/eBay shopping with USDC -Chrome extension -privacy tools -perps and now distribution through the Solana dApp Store. Most projects would build a whole narrative around one of these features. These guys built all of them. Now look at the market opportunity. There are billions of people globally with poor internet connectivity. Governments shut down internet access. Mobile data fails. Infrastructure isn't equal everywhere. $OFFCHAIN is attacking a real world problem, not an imaginary crypto problem. Then look at the team. Every week there's another update, another product , another release , another integration. Then ask yourself, How many projects sitting at 5M, 10M, 20M+ valuations have less products than this? A lot. That's why I keep saying I think millions are coded. Not because of hype, not because I want a pump.Because when I compare valuation vs execution, the gap is still massive. The market eventually rewards teams that solve real problems. And I think many people are going to realize that far too late. CA: BPiECaSntw8LVGYimofpNcU5eKrjrSvKz5VY7mr9pump

  I'm seeing lots of issues recently with sending cards via eBay Standard Envelope. Seems a lot of post offices are cracking down on rigidity with toploaders, especially if the postage is less than $1.32 or 3 oz. I'm thinking of switching to card savers but customers seems to really like top loaders for pwe. Anyone ship out ESE with card savers and have any customer complaints?

  @AltonHibbert @JCSCollects But at least sealed products are vetted. These random ebay ppl are not. They might even own the card they claim to be running a raffle for. Thats the issue.

  This is a $475 Mark-10 clamp for force testing machines. One of the threaded brass bushings needed to open and close it is stripped. And one of the snap rings needs to be repositioned. The cost to fix it will be a minimum of $105. And that's just for the evaluation fee - even though it just needs a new bushing, and possibly a new threaded rod. All of the repair fees are based on evaluations and repairs for multi-thousand dollar Force testing machines, not for their fixtures. A machinist could recreate the brass bushing. But that would be custom work that could get expensive quickly, and cost more than the high fees at Mark-10. Sigh... You'd think a simple 5" clamp couldn't cost that much money, and that maybe you could get a cheaper one on ebay. And you can. But cheaper force testing clamps are also significantly cheaper quality, while still being very expensive for what they are. I guess they're just such a niche product that companies can charge that much.

  @OlderMedic39 @AustinTobitt @TheRoaringKitty You bought shares at $30 and calls. Again, it went to $80. Since then, turned into a holding company - posted the most profitable quarter ever by a landslide and is trying to buy eBay. The SP is manipulated down but he's doing everything he can to stop that from happening.

  🚨 NEW: US-Iranian Tech CEO Arrested For Supplying Iran's Nuclear Program Jamshid Ghomi, the CEO of a Tehran-based technology firm, was arrested Wednesday for allegedly funneling sensitive American networking and security equipment directly to Iran’s military and nuclear facilities. Prosecutors claim he operated a massive money laundering network to bypass strict US sanctions and finance a lavish California lifestyle. His company, Faraz Pardaz Rayaneh, allegedly supplied critical equipment to Iran’s Atomic Energy Organization and the Ministry of Defense over an eight-year period. Ghomi laundered more than $15 million into American bank accounts and construction escrows, falsely reporting the illicit funds as a foreign inheritance. The 63-year-old executive utilized personal eBay and PayPal accounts to make over 400 purchases of computer networking equipment, routing the shipments through intermediaries in the United Arab Emirates. Federal prosecutors are now actively attempting to seize Ghomi’s massive $35 million mansion in Newport Beach, California, which was largely funded by foreign wire transfers. This high-profile arrest exposes severe vulnerabilities in global supply chains, revealing how hostile foreign programs can acquire restricted technology through basic e-commerce workarounds. It also marks a significant escalation in the ongoing enforcement of sweeping sanctions against Iran's manufacturing and defense sectors. Are current international export controls completely broken, or will massive asset seizures like this finally deter intermediary smuggling networks? Source: Justice Department

  @slabfactory_ty @Voodoo_TCG People who don’t realize eBay doesn’t show the best offer accepted is the issue, not using eBay as comps. If people aren’t looking up sales on 130 Point or Card Ladder to get the accurate sale, they are they problem.

  @eBay_UK your site only allows age verification if you have a credit card, no other method offered. I dont have a credit card - its a crazy rip off - but have had eBay account for 22 years. Fix this please it makes no sense. Also - your AskeBay account is suspended, fix that too!

  @_bismack_ I switched to card savers a year ago and won't turn back. No a single postage due issue with hundreds of cards. Only issue is the random missing card, and that is just whatever at this point. Make the change. People won't care. State your shipping policy in the eBay listing.

  @Addicted2Jeter @minj00nglvr I usually buy from a Korean store on eBay that is very secure since I’ve never had a problem with them, and they sell the digipacks by members as well as the unit ones I don’t live in the US so I don’t have any other option

  Why your AI eBay listings come out generic and the fix The mistake is structural. A fresh chat every time starts cold no memory of your inventory or standards. Generic in, generic out. The fix: a Claude Project. It stores instructions permanently, so you operate a trained specialist, not a blank chat. The key principle: authentication before pricing. The model confirms the item's era from the photos before it writes a word and never guesses. Why it matters: that step is the gap between a $25 listing and an $80 one. The edge was never the code. It's the instruction that runs first.

  @pcgamer not a monopoly but ignores the real issue New digital video game sales are oligopoly controlled by companies who make games. The only real competition is in the console disc market, particularly the used disc market (Ebay, Gamestop, etc). Which is why they're phasing out discs
