    I was shooting quick little videos on the phone for pieces I'm putting up on eBay today and before taking down the test track sections, I popped this $20 steam loco chassis on the track. I bought this with a bunch of random pieces a couple months back but hadn't run any of it yet. This chassis in N scale, tiny and light as a feather so I wasn't expecting much from it to be honest. I was kind of shocked that without any additional weight on it, it ran this well. As a nice bonus... it sounds great! Sound to me is a big deal with model trains. Too many are a bit screechy / grinding, etc. For me that really hurts the enjoyment. I'm sort of obsessed with the whole "model railroading is too expensive" thing I hear so often. Of course it can be, but a chassis like this, at $20, opens up so many possibilities. We'll be shooting videos on these low prices chassis and what they can mean for the hobby! I really was knocked out by this train.

    @Etsy It did get permanently banned and there was absolutely no support path for this issue. fortunately sales on ebay have been great.

    @MarioBrothBlog Man I remember when I was a kid I played my cousin $10 for his game boy camera. He said he’d bring it next time he visited, but it was a full year later and he’d forgotten. My heart was broken. Don’t know why I didn’t just get one off of eBay, I think it was 2003 or 4.

    @BerryNiceCards @rhoge any updates on when this might get fixed? Can’t believe this is still an issue. eBay/PSA authentication just refuse to use top loaders and end this nonsense. Truly confounding stuff. @ryancohen will your version of eBay fix this easily solvable problem??

  • RLRottman
    Rick (@RLRottman) reported

    I have a weird problem with eBay. I bought this Magic: The Gathering starter deck set on 15 July. The seller still has not shipped it. I requested that they cancel it. They declined. If you thought that would prompt them to ship it, you would be wrong. I then asked eBay on 25 July to cancel it. They will not do anything about it unless I still have not received it by 31 July. The seller has a one-day handling time. #eBay #MtG

    @kylecordes @heynavtoor This is true as of 2025 for all new Chamberlain openers. 100% encrypted wireless. Anything labeled “Security 3.0” is totally locked down. I got the last Security 2.0 units my installer had in the warehouse earlier this year. You can still find a few on EBay.

    Renunciate (@renunciateIII) reported

    I just closed my eBay account. I rarely used it but listed a couple of books for sale this morning. eBay decided one of my books was offensive and shut it down. So, I shut down the account. Go to hell with your censorship eBay. It wasn’t an offensive book, btw. If you’ve ever read it, it’s just a novel: “the Turner Diaries”.

    The anxiety of this specific vinyl coming damaged because I originally thought I was coming from a state near by then for it to be shipping from basically the other side of the country is nerve-racking (this is why my eBay addiction died down)

    katalaga || Ecom Manager (@katalagaah) reported

    A good ecom manager can: • Fix your product feed (better targeting, less wasted spend) • Clean search terms + flag junk traffic • Improve collection structure + internal linking • Spot conversion leaks (speed, UX, stock issues) • Manage listings across Shopify, Amazon, eBay

    @jdflynn If the decision between the two comes down to money, just get a used blackstone and look for a deal on used batting tunnel equipment and do both. I hate buying new when I know I can go on Facebook marketplace or eBay and lowball somebody and get next to new for pennies on the dollar.

    GME BITCOIN (@gme_bitcoin) reported

    @evan12286 @ryancohen Weak. Naked shorting have been real problems before, but claiming every GME offering is a secret prime broker bailout with zero hard evidence is cope. Company raised cash,built a fortress, now hunting eBay. Thats the execution.If you want real change, demand better enforcement.

    @TommysHobbyChnl So someone explain stacks to me. I haven't sold anything other than on ebay, but am down to. For the same reasons I've passed on thousands of $$ with grading, I don't want to deal with the BS of involving other variables.

    Is anyone else dealing with @eBay ESUS shipping issues over the last couple of months? I have had multiple purchases stuck in the original drop off locations with no updates to the point that I have to request refunds. Almost like the @USPS is deliberately delaying shipping 1/2

  • MilkRoadAI
    Milk Road AI (@MilkRoadAI) reported

    Nobody made money owning the internet, everybody made money building on top of it (Save this). That's @friedberg argument because Netscape built the first browser and server software, charged for both, went public, then got wiped out once open source alternatives showed up. Mozilla built Firefox for free, Google built Chrome for free, Apache gave away server software so anyone could get online without paying a toll. The value didn't vanish, it just moved off the gatekeepers and onto everyone building on top, Google, eBay, Etsy, Amazon, and millions of small businesses that never could have existed otherwise. Friedberg's claim is that AI is following the same script. If open models keep closing the gap with proprietary ones, value stops concentrating in two or three labs and spreads across every company building on top of it and the data backs this up. Stanford's 2026 AI Index found the gap between the best closed model and the best open model has shrunk to about 3.3%, down from double digits two years ago. Chinese open models now account for 41% of downloads on Hugging Face over the past year and more than 30% of Fortune 500 companies have verified accounts pulling models straight from that ecosystem. Enterprise sentiment backs it too, 41% of organizations say they'd drop proprietary models entirely once open ones hit parity, and another 41% are expanding open source usage regardless. The market already got a preview of this snapping into place. DeepSeek's open weight model release in January 2025 wiped close to $600 billion off Nvidia's market cap in a single day. That's what Chamath means by value capture evaporating in months, not decades. A sector with what looked like permanent pricing power turned out to have a shelf life measured in product cycles. Where this gets uncomfortable is capex and if enterprises can get most of what they need from a free open model on their own hardware, the case for endlessly compounding training spend weakens. Analysts have flagged this as a risk that isn't priced into current capex forecasts, precisely because open models keep closing the gap faster than commercial labs are widening it.

    @JenX_Based @eBay They seem to be getting better about keep this stuff inside Seller hub and making sure stuff linked elsewhere is posted there... Maybe, just maybe, they are getting that 1 and 2 person operations don't have time to chase down new information all the time.

    wabiko (@wozuwabi) reported

    @knoyhead Bought hundreds of cards off ebay, only had an issue once where it was damaged and the seller refunded it to be dmg market value. Ebay does favour the buyer over the seller massively so you won’t have an issue, all orders have a money back guarantee from Ebay even if the seller says “no returns” Easy tells of fakes: they say in the description after long text, the card is dramatically under market value, seller has few items/sales, seller has same oic as other listing. Gl!
