    RC now has 9.35% economic exposure to eBay So where do we go from here? -Keep building toward 15% until Delaware 203 becomes an issue -Wait to see how eBay’s Proposal 4 does on June 17. If it passes and gets implemented, the special meeting threshold drops from 20% to 10% , putting GameStop right there with HSR already satisfied -Launch a direct tender offer and go straight to eBay shareholders. -Take home that sweet profit We update the eBay trade and a lot more on this weeks episode of @EchoChamber741 with @diamondape69 and @ib35y45 LFG $GME

    $HIMS IMRAN KHAN: "EXECUTION IS THE BEAR CASE THAT WORRIES ME MOST" --- BUT HAVING 2.5 MILLION CUSTOMERS DE-RISKS THE THESIS @dottkhan: "Execution. Ultimately execution is everything. Ideas are a dime a dozen. Building a business requires an insane amount of execution." "At the end of the day, investors are spectators. We are watching a game. Right now the World Cup is going on, Messi does everything. The audience cheers things and boos, but ultimately Messi is the one who's scoring." "So EXECUTION is probably the most underrated thing in the investment world." "Hims is running over a 2.5 million customer base. The big question is, can they grow from there? Did they hit the ceiling? I obviously don't think they hit the ceiling, because they're adding a lot more products and services." "As you add more SKUs, you'll be able to acquire more customers. And you should be able to cross-sell more." "Once you acquire a customer, I might be interested in hair loss, but then I find, okay, I'll use them for my blood test. Or somebody comes for a blood test, then they use them for hair loss. That circular thing I have seen with so many internet companies." "When eBay started, Meg [Whitman] told me she was shocked by what percentage of their customers were only buying Beanie Babies on eBay. The number was between 10 to 20% of GMV. Because that was the product market fit." "You have to add more products and services so that more customers come back, and that creates a viral loop. Your LTV is going up, your CAC is going down, and then everything else is kind of manageable from there."

    @benzibenzion I feel like this outlook is based on a few bad experiences which anyone who frequents card shows will have. But there’s good vendors who buy and sell fair. Also compare that to eBay buyers who refund over something dumb or Facebook market meetups they all have their issues lol

    @benzibenzion Coins are the same..I buy at my local shop thinking I got a nice coin, get home and check Ebay and the same coin is ten dollars cheaper. I do find the occasional error coin cheaper in a shop..but never silver or proofs at a better price than Ebay..

    @AskPayPal Bought on eBay via PayPal (Citi card) on June 2 and cancelled right away. PayPal shows refund issued, but after 14 days it's still not on my Citi card. Direct Citi payment refunds appear instantly. Why is PayPal so slow??? Never using it again. 😤

    @uestradr $1k + $15k debt means you cant start paid affiliate (too small bankroll, gambling at this size) and organic affiliate is too slow to outrun the debt before interest eats you alive. First, call your creditors. Most credit card debt can be negotiated down 30-50% with a lump sum settlement. Could save you $5-7k off the $15k in one phone call. Highest ROI of an hour youll ever spend and most ppl forget this even exists. Just call, say youre struggling, offer 50% as lump settlement. Second, stop the bleeding. Cancel every subscription, no rideshare, no eating out, cheap rent or move home if possible. Saves $400-700/mo for most ppl. Compounds fast Third, get a high-velocity income source. If you dont have a job, the highest paying entry-level grind is door to door sales (solar, internet, roofing, security systems). $3-8k/mo realistic for grinders, top performers hit $15k+. Trades apprenticeship pays $20-30/hr fast. If you already have a job, get a 2nd one nights/weekends, or run rideshare for $2-3k/mo while you sleep less. Fourth, sell **** you own. Most ppl have $1-2k of clothes, electronics, sports gear, furniture just sitting around. Marketplace, ebay, depop. Fifth, build affiliate ORGANIC on the side. TikTok with affiliate links. 60-90 days of pure content before you see anything. Maybe $500-1500/mo by month 6 if you actually grind 1-2 hrs/day on it. Slow but free

    Anyone having trouble with eBay standard envelope lately? I purchased like 4-5 cards just a bit over 2 weeks ago and only 1 has arrived so far. Usually they’re here within 7-10 days @CardPurchaser

    @frank_lubatti Yes, this would fix most problems. They also should have a set where a seller can click ""no fault refund" where if it's not scanned delivered after 30 days, it auto refunds without need for escalation and gives you the info to file a claim for ese insurance in your inbox. @eBay people would kill for this.

    Catalog NES Game 42- Rampage Rampage was released as an arcade game in 1986 before being ported over to the NES as well as many other systems. The franchise and its rights are owned by Warner Bros after they purchased Midway Games. The idea is simple. You are transformed into 3 monsters that look like King Kong, Godzilla, and Werewolf. You get to run around smashing buildings, collecting power up food items and such. While the actual sales figures are not known it did go down as one of the most popular rentals at the time. The arcade version of the game was a massive hit. Today if you are looking to collect you can find the game on Ebay and such for roughly $15 to $20 and a nice boxed version for around $100 #NES #Rampage

    @HannahDCox All this comes down to the current ownership of StubHub not wanting to investing in making things right. When it was Ebay owned you were much more likely to get replacement tickets even if it cost StubHub 2X as much to pay a new seller's listing. They also had a real person 1/

    Robert Boehme (@RBoehme86) reported

    @levelsio It's the same for eBay, i sell lots of stuff here and to be fair sometimes there are issues (i seel old computer parts) but somehow it's super hard/impossible for people to give me negative review and at the same time i as the seller can only ever give positive reviews (there is no other option), i can only tell "all went well" and post it publicly. It's super weird, they completely removed the negative element here which is very bad in my view. I wonder what drove this, some social justive stuff or people gaming the system. I somehow for eBay assume the later. Tkae YouTube for example, since forever and a day you can just cheaply buy likes and and subscribtions. So downvoting a competitors content/offering would be crazy easy.

    @kawaii_omo A few years ago, I was selling a lot of books from LoveMerci on ebay (RIP) and patreon (also RIP) but my listings kept getting shut down. There is a BIG demand but the international shops are an absolute pain to deal with. I am open to start shipping again but idk where to start

    Both times, I did nothing wrong. Built real products. Served real customers. Generated real revenue. eBay didn't care. Shopify didn't care. When you threaten the platform's business model, you become the problem. It doesn't matter how much value you created for them.

    Ebay is using AI to review reports and it determined there was no issue with a brand new account listing an Evolving Skies booster box case for 4500. Hopefully no one is dumb enough to buy it cause you’ll be fighting to get your money back.

    This is the stuff that drives me crazy selling on eBay.. USPS lost a package I sent out. It happens. Buyer tells me he never got it after 3 weeks. I check and tracking stopped 2 weeks earlier. I apologize and issue a refund. I get negative feedback for not psychically knowing he wanted a refund.

  • Amphium
    Connor (@Amphium) reported

    Is eBay cracking down on modded consoles and stuff? I listed an xbox for parts and one i said "Loaded into a modded dashboard" and apparently that was enough to get a warning and the listing removed. I even noticed that searching for Modded Xboxes or "RGH" came up with basically nothing.

    If you haven’t jumped on the BC-250 band wagon yet, stop scrolling. If you are handy, these boards can do everything from run an AI to PS5 level gaming to being an overkill home server. I’m currently building one to replace a Raspberry Pi 5 for Home Assistant after seeing a Pi for $300 at Micro Center. (!!!). There is a huge community around these boards getting larger daily. They have 16GB of GDDR6, DP out, Ethernet, M.2 NVME, and I bought 7 of them for $150 each. Half the price of an equivalent Pi. I’m printing a case for each of mine to house the required power supply and power switch and plan to give some of them away as either fully local AI’s running Gemma 4, or Steam Machines playing every game on Steam at great quality. I really expect prices to go up as they get more popular so check them out on eBay.

    Misopogon (@BarbaOptimatium) reported

    @FrankBr05713205 It’s funny because I used to curse OBD2 vehicles for their gatekeeping, but at least that got solved later with the introduction of non-OEM devices that can read native manufacturer-specific computer protocols. Since I drive mostly GM, I eventually got a tech2 scanner since they became affordable on eBay. But the biggest problem now is most manufacturer interfaces require a PRICY subscription to use the newest tools YOU OWN, so we won’t see things like tech2 anymore (ie, standalone, no subscription required interfaces) on the used market. So we have to hope that third parties are able to reverse-engineer proprietary data buses without getting sued into oblivion. Dodge/Ram pissed me off the most by introducing encryption on their data buses making reverse-engineering impossible. Now it seems ford and GM are doing the same. When “they” said “you’ll own nothing”, what they meant was what I call the Caterpillar view of ownership… CAT’s mantra: “you bought it, we own it”. Even Deere is now in on that game. What I tell everyone now is don’t buy new. Buy an older truck (or car)… Even if it needs a whole new powertrain and other things rebuilt, it’s still far cheaper than a new truck, and you can have anyone work on it (including yourself). If you don’t like where the automakers are going, don’t give them money, and hopefully things will change eventually.
