Jose Rodriguez (@JoseRodriguez) reportedI’ve started the down the deep dark path of buying One Piece TCG PSA slabs on eBay. This is no bueno. It’s spiraling 🌀.

spotcheck billy (@dutyfreechamp) reported@BerylStapleton @HollywoodYeste1 Yeah, I do ebay, but that has its own issues. It’s usually stacks of moldy and mouse-eaten magazines and newspapers, and the client just wants the house cleaned out. Not worth checking everything for resale value. But then sometimes go whoops :)

MangiMi (@MangiMi2) reportedReceived a card today. Immediately noticed a really nice dent that was never listed in the eBay description. The seller (small consignment) says in their description that all marks, dents, blemishes will be listed and if it’s not, any visual marks are from the camera or the card case itself and not on the card). The card was listed as “near mint” and went to eBay authentication. Authentication is not a grading company and they occasionally let a lot slide , so when you receive it back and you notice clear major issues with the card and contact the seller, should the seller accept a return in this case or should eBay need to intervene? When I contacted @bogey1979 aka cards2consignment and Bogey Breaks, he said the markings weren’t there when shipped. I sent him a photo with his own listing showing the indent but explained that since his description says all marks will be noted and if it isn’t noted the card is as listed, he said I should take it up with eBay. Now clearly this guy knows he’s wrong, but he’s choosing to try to wash his hands of his error or clearly deceptive listings to get max value. Should eBay be responsible when sellers act in bad faith like this? Either way, never buy or deal or break with this guy as you will most likely end up with a similar situation. My suggestion is you add him to the do not do business list and/or block guys like this so the hobby isn’t tainted with people who are profiting off detective tactics. @CardPurchaser

Yolo (@glockenspiel267) reported@cell0phan3 These I got from Goods Republic! I’ve order from them about 89 times now and I’ve never had an issue, and there’s free shipping! You also can find some stuff on EBay and Mercari, but Mercari will probably be the cheapest if you’re on a budget

Problem Being (@BeingProblem) reportedAnyone else having issues with @eBay_UK @eBay app on iPhone today? It’s just not loading and no buttons work.

JSteimCards (@jsteimcards) reportedAnyone every buy a slab off of eBay and receive it with moisture inside the slab? If so, what’s the fix?? @CardPurchaser

The Phantom Peasant (@roaringpeasant) reported@radtdd99 @ValueAddedRS @ryancohen eBay is assessing the viability of potential shareholder lawsuits given they already have legal issues. If they have the judges and media aligned to back them they will attempt to maneuver and create a poison pill. If not, they will eventually step aside. Hope it’s the latter.

Emmie Ay (@BUTTERFLY0187) reportedY'all are FULL OF ****!!!!! ZERO customer service!!!! Just go head and shut down why do you even still exist! @eBay

Marginalized Bigot (@GrowlyGrr) reportedHey @usmint, you shouldn't allow bots to get ahead of real people! My wife was inline almost an hour early and it was doing the count down and then when it opened at 12pm it said an hour wait! All are gone now. They were gone at 12pm because you have **** security to protect against bots. Now if I want that liberty bell I have to buy from some Chinese farm account on ebay for thousands! Seriously, screw you. Your handling of the 250th anniversary coins has been horrible. You should have been protecting real people from bots!
-
MangiMi (@MangiMi2) reported@CorbinKeith It is now with them, but it shouldn’t have to be. He missed it. He admitted in messages he missed it but didn’t want to resolve it. He’s hiding behind the authentication which has happened thousands of times and thousands of buyers have had this exact issue. eBay misses it or lets it slide and the seller hides behind it. Shouldn’t be a lengthy process. You fuxked up just fix it.

Sam (@idontlikething) reportedBeen asking people on ebay to show me specific details of the cameras they're selling to see how down they are to sell it to me
-
Psyk0sys (@Psyk_X) reported@SpaceMutiny I had a 60 GB fat and it lasted about the same time. I was able to resurrect it though a couple times with a heat gun by taking it apart and cooking the cpu. The 2nd time it died I brought it back and sold it on ebay for about $200 with full disclosure of the problem.

TrashCatchem' (@TrashCatchem) reported@TommyTasty @ThatGuyShav @lyemcfly are you slow? buddy works for IRS and buying something from a card show with cash, EBAYing it and paying taxes on the sale on ebay is the exact route.
-
Neon Press (@JohnHancoc36574) reported@egan6rf @andyburnham To the outside, to us, you're a bunch of empty cheap suits sent by the bankruptcy administrators to wind down and wind up the business while the contractors rip out the machinery and copper cables to sell on EBay & it's all plausibly deniable in court. But you think you're smart
-
I'm Trav-ish (@Skandle_) reported@anaway @bizgoos @FlaggNation It probably means that it was listed for higher than market and he negotiated it down to market. You lack serious critical thinking skills and are defending some random ****** eBay seller with a hot head for no reason. Get some sleep.
-
OnlyCharizard (@OnlyCharizard) reported@PlayoffKidwell If you ripped them or kept them Im not even mad at you. The people that immediately list them on eBay for 10x are the problem.

RIDER SKETCH (@RiderSketches) reportedthe cb750 is running now, but there's one thing i can't find. the rear master cylinder bracket for a 1982 cb750f. the one that holds the rear brake master cylinder to the frame. discontinued from honda. not on vintagecb750. nowhere on ebay. spent two hours scrolling forums. found a guy in canada with the same problem, his rear wheel parts were "currently unavailable" too . another guy spent a year looking for rear-sets for his 79 cb750f dohc, and bought parts that didn't fit . bikes and code. same lesson, sometimes the hardest part isn't fixing it. it's finding the part. anyone have a lead on this bracket or know a custom fab shop?👇
-
Gamers Vault Gaming (@vault_gamers) reported@TechnicallyTee If you're a physical buyer why would you buy from Gamestop? They have a problem with quality, pricing, and Volume. I'd much rather hit up a mom and pop, 2nd and Charles, Walmart, Ebay, or Amazon for games. Gamestop became more of a toystore.

Nat Turner (@natsturner) reported@sport_trendz @PSAcard @eBay no it is not. ill fix

▪️🏴☠️tchuck 🇾🇪 (@thetchuck) reported@tonedawggie @Ryan__Rigg GME will acquire eBay and verticalize its pipeline even further. It’ll cut down costs extremely on eBay, making it far, far more profitable and useful than it is. It’ll be the first of many acquisitions.
-
King Contrarian (@King_Contrarian) reported@eBay I just want you to know that selling cards on eBay is ridiculous because the eBay standard envelopes people just take advantage of the fact that when the post service has it, they don’t scan it as delivered. So what am I supposed to do when my customers that I sell cards to say they never received the card and it was already confirmed to be with the Postal Service? We’re having a bunch of people just saying that and they do NOT have the cards that’s the thing so then I have to refund them and then I have to get a refund from eBay for the $20 protection of the card getting “lost in the mail” This is systematically broken.

EverydayReseller (@EverydayResell) reportedDay 161 Total sales: $606.70 Buy cost (COG): $81.84 eBay earnings: $323.05 Net profit: $241.21 ROI: 294% 6 item day. One lesson that's become clearer over the last 161 days is that protecting your downside is just as important as maximizing your upside. Every purchase is a decision about risk. If I can buy quality inventory at a fraction of its market value, I give myself room for shipping costs, fees, offers, & the occasional broken item without putting the business at risk. Today's sales included automotive parts, plumbing tools, UTV accessories, industrial pumps, & HDMI cables. Different categories. Different buyers. Same philosophy. The better you buy, the more resilient your business becomes. Profit starts long before an item sells. It starts the moment you decide what you're willing to pay. Buy right. List consistently. Stay patient. The singles keep adding up. #Reselling #BuildInPublic

Joel Clermont (@jclermont) reportedThis may not mean a lot to all you software nerds, but trust me it’s a huge deal. Last night, I replaced a 3DS XL upper screen in under 30 minutes. I’ve been buying up broken units on eBay to practice and it has paid off!
-
Ross Brown (@Hey_ross) reported@dirtevader You don’t believe they’re impaired? Dead Goodwill on the balance sheet is a false asset that is often discounted heavily in acquisitions. I believe eBay has been committing accounting fraud by continuing to hold the Goodwill at a high level Impairing it and marking accurately, would create a more valid balance sheet and valuation for the company. The impact of the write down would reduce earnings substantially and reduced taxable income will not affect cash flow at all. The effect over a two year period is to increase cash flow while not increasing tax and creating a more accurately valued balance sheet. I would consider an imperative in an acquisition to do that.

Mervin Cruddy (@rotoace) reported@capitaloneshop Why do you not have "eBay" or "Chewy" anymore for redemption!? Please fix asap

exakic (@exakic) reportedI hate when game packaging/art has both English & French I get why but I still dont care I think its ugly as **** & just makes it look like theres an whole essay on the case & the worst part is that ebay just LOVES to shove the Canadian versions of games down my ******* throat
-
MA☈K 🐮 (@MarkOfThaaBeast) reportedWell duh, most stores closed down and they sell nerd merch now more than games. Why you think they want to buy ebay?

Stay Predictable (@staypredictable) reported@lucky_425056 Can’t hold for that long below conversion price of $28-$29. EPS will be too big and p/e too low. If no eBay deal then cash pile would be $13-$14B by 2028. If eBay deal, then EPS goes up even more for the combined entity compared to now. $1.34 TTM EPS currently is 16x. Insane low with such cash buffer to accompany it. $1.70+ by year end is probable. That brings it down to 13x or less at this price. And a cash pile over $10B to accompany it by then. If shares are bought back then that EPS grows even more. And 13x becomes even less than 10x. It’s just not sustainable.

Discombobulator (@el_p0m0d0r0) reported@RegiStonk 20 year ebay account. If he acquires, I am taking it down. They will have no choice but to raise fees to cover all the crushing non investment quality debt

Fen Dozer (@DozerFen) reported@freetheboyyy To replace a broken or missing bone china piece, look for the manufacturer’s backstamp on the underside and use specialized registries like Replacements, Ltd.. For vintage patterns, you can also browse marketplaces like Etsy or eBay.
