  @Addison95813086 @bashmcalister His signature is worth nothing. An Eevee he signed sold for $3.60 on 28 March on eBay. If the kids really are chasing dollars, what's the issue? Good on them for developing their entrepreneurial flair. I could even understand testing their smarts a little with a 'not quite worth it' trade. But that's not what he did. He mugged them. He saw his chance to trade something of value for something of no value with a little kid and his eyes lit up.

  @eBay i would appreciate being able to speak with an agent or something i have tried to go thru the automated assistant and it just doesn’t work for the issue i have.

  @CatNihon @jboren21170 @TommyKarate70 At the time I was looking to get it repaired - it would have been cheaper to just buy another one on ebay instead of paying a tech to try and fix it. They've definitely gone up in price since then...

  Be careful listing anything on Vinted .. i have used ebay 20 years and I always package things very well. If damaged in transit then they cover me and the buyer... whereas @vinted do not do this. Never listing anything with this app again. Terrible service.

  @Dexerto Scalpers are just going to take those too. The solution, don’t buy the ones on eBay and the price will go down if they don’t sell

  @suyusekicen2 Too bad, but if it's any consolation, Cardmarket doesn't even have it in the US 😝 Of all the sales channels, including eBay, it's undoubtedly the best: I've had few problems, and they were all resolved very quickly.

  @Marioucche @eBay @Halo You wasted alot of time. Even if they’re taken down, it’s allowed within 30 days of release. They’ll just go back up. Should’ve spent that time writing to Xbox and complaining why they didn’t manufacture enough units to meet demand for one of the biggest IP in gaming history

  @stefanmaga2026 @WhiteHouse So why's small businesses going broke from tariffs then you fat lying ****? Why am I still paying tariffs on eBay when they were struck down as ILLEGAL MAGAt? Why have I not yet received those $5,000 DOGE & Tariff Dividend checks that **** Dump now said he never said? 🤡🤡🤡

  This is why I shut down 2 eBay stores as a Top rated seller for over a decade. @eBay will literally side with scammers. Feels like the company is ran by literally nobody and a Wild West free for all when theres an issue. eBay should be demolished.

  Its impressive the @openclaw frenzy. I'm looking for a Mini PC or something to run a simple home server instead of a VPS and Mac Mini was a good choice. On Ebay a 6y/o used Mac Mini 400-500$, and a Macbook Air M1 also 16gb for 200-300$ 👀 Same chip!

  @uncw @eBay Then I made the call not to bet the whole company on eBay. I built a new e-commerce site from scratch. I picked the @Supermicro server, installed the CPUs, chose the data center, installed Linux, configured the database, and wrote every line.

  @bavedikian @BestBuy @FedEx I was selling stuff on ebay and shipping them via FedEx. Couple time when the item was damaged due to FedEx handling they refunded me. So I don't see what is the best buy problem if FedEx admitted its responsibility. BTW by doing sow FedEx kept me as a customer and I improved my packaging.

  @DesertHeatCards Jimmy, I was disappointed to learn that this was not some super rare error card. I thought I was retiring early. I put it on eBay for $8 but I might take it down idk

  @gorilla_rape I'll check around in eBay to see if there's anything similar. My fear of buying a used one is that there could be something wrong with it and I wouldn't know how to fix it really. I don't think I would buy that particular one on your SS because they have zero feedback.

  Over the Board's Head: How @ryancohen Is Now Pitching the Owners $EBAY 's board already said no. "Neither credible nor attractive." A board answers to the institutions that own the company. And in the Barron's interview, Cohen stopped arguing with the board and started making the case to them: the shareholders, the desks, the funds that actually cast the votes. And everything he's built over the last four months only matters if he can get those people to flip. TWO INSTRUMENTS, ONE NUMBER I've covered the comp and the TD condition before, but here's the short version: - 171.5 million options, struck at $20.66, vesting on a ladder from a $20 billion market cap to $100 billion. - The TD Securities letter ties the $20 billion in debt to an investment-grade profile the combined entity doesn't have yet. One rewards a higher market cap. The other requires it. When the pay package and the financing condition are both calibrated to the same number, that number IS the strategy. He doesn't get paid for owning eBay. He gets paid for the re-rating. And the debt only unlocks after the re-rating happens. THE DEF 14A TELL Cohen just clarified in the proxy that the 2.5 billion share authorization will most likely pass as it has the lowest possible bar to clear and that his performance award is not contingent on it. What does that do? It splits the two things eBay's board lumped together in the rejection. The complaint about dilution and the worries regarding his comp package were just separated. The authorization isn't a personal payday mechanism anymore, it's standalone acquisition currency for a parent entity. And the comp is no longer a dilution grab but a target on a market cap that vests no matter what the share count does. This is housekeeping before a pitch. You don't clean up the optics on your own filings for retail. Retail isn't reading the DEF 14A line-by-line. You do it for the institutions you're about to ask for a vote. THE FLIP This is the part the setup was built for. Proposal 4 at eBay's June 17 AGM lowers the threshold to call a special meeting to 10%. If institutions flip to yes, the gate drops. $GME sits ~1% from that line in derivative exposure and is actively converting. But a special meeting doesn't put an acquisition to vote. A 10% holder can't call a meeting and have shareholders "accept the deal." What a special meeting does vote on is control. So the real chain isn't one step. It's this: Flip Prop 4 → clear the 10% gate → call the special meeting → replace or pressure the board → a friendly board signs the merger → then it goes to a merger vote. So the board is the lock, not the bid. The special meeting is just how you change who holds the key. And that's exactly what Cohen needs: A friendly board that will sit across from a diversified parent: one that raises capital at the top, carries the leverage across subsidiaries, and gives the sovereign wealth fund a vehicle that actually exists. That's the fast path. If the flip doesn't come, he falls back on the slow path - the 2027 declassified-board slate. Which is why the flip matters more than the bid price, the leverage math, or the rejection. Every instrument he's laid down: the conditional financing, the HSR-gated derivatives, the comp ladder, the dead space he cleared around June 17 relies on this. Prop 4 is the key. The Barron's pitch is him reaching for it. THE KEYSTONE Now the honest part. This is still one bet wearing every costume. The flip, the IG profile, the SWF commitment, the comp vesting, the warrants going ITM are all downstream of a single event. And now there's a hard deadline on it we have never had before: October 30, 2026. If the institutions don't flip on June 17, the fast path closes and the clock keeps running toward a warrant expiry the slow path may not beat. If they do flip, he gets the room he's been building toward and the right to make the pitch the entire structure was designed to set up. The pieces are on the table. June 17 is when we find out if the owners hand him the key. Or if he has to break the door down. TL;DR: The board said no. The board was never the vote. Prop 4 lets a 10% holder force a special meeting and a special meeting changes the board, it doesn't approve the deal. So the play is to seat directors who'll sign the merger. The board is the lock. Prop 4 is the key. June 17 is the turn. And the clock is real now: Oct 30, 2026. The re-rating has to beat it. He laid every piece before he asked.

  So I decided to open a new eBay account, but the moment I did, I started thinking about what would happen if eBay suspended me again Instead of waiting to find out, I decided to start 100 eBay accounts straight away I created them all manually and started managing them, but I ran into a lot of issues. And that's how I decided I needed the software

  @UWillBeOffended @CardPurchaser @eBay Great feedback! Thank you. Paid by credit card. I didn’t even think to take that route. Trying to give this seller every chance to make this right. $60 card for my pc. I never sell, only pc. Purchased 100’s of cards and this is my first real issue.

  @papaavalon @RockWallBibles Agree. Dozens of Bibles and the only one I have with the Apocrypha is a glue bound from Baylor 20 years ago and a used paste down I found on eBay. I hope this is normalized in the premium binding space.

  @bavedikian @BestBuy @FedEx I smell some waste, fraud and abuse going on here. By hiring and retaining criminals (who steal and likely resell the goods), FedEx should be liable as an accessory to a crime imho. Best Buy owes you a refund, but FedEx is knowingly supporting a criminal. I’ve had similar issues buying on eBay for electronics to disappear at the USPS. The tracking number in limbo forever, postal service offers no help. Just inexplicably lost in a facility. Seller refunded, but there must be a **** ton of criminals in shipping. I’m really getting fed up with all the fraud.
