  I'm burnt out. Being pushed to "grow". Promoting a GoFundMe that's going nowhere. Selling on eBay. GAD out of control. A mobile home lot that's looking pretty weedy & I have to clean it myself. I still don't have a working furnace & the drains are still slow. My balance is still "off" & probably always will be. Now let's add a worsening back pain. I'm disabled FFS! There's not one moment where I can sit back & relax. Sleep is the only place I can get relief. Accidents do happen. 💊

  @RWToronto @mallen20243 @McFaul If someone had a trillion dollars just sitting in a bank account, yes that would be an eye bleeding ridiculous amount of money that they would never be able to use. It would be unconscionable in some sense. Elon does not have a trillion dollars though. In 2002 when Paypal was sold to ebay, he made $180 million after paying about 35% in taxes on the income. Those getting the payout now could try to do what Elon did. He invested $100 million to start SpaceX and $70 million into Tesla. Now 24 years later after insurmountable odds those companies are theoretically worth trillions and his share of those companies are worth over a trillion. But if he tried to sell all his shares, the value of them would collapse along with everyone's pension and retirement fund as the market can not absorb it and he would have to pay a tremendous amount of taxes and then he would no longer have any control over Tesla or SpaceX. His percent control hasn't changed much over the years, it's just theoretically worth more on paper. He probably has millions in his bank account, not billions. And he uses the capital he has to build new companies or innovations like Neuralink or xAI. All of these benefit us. All of his companies are benefitting us. We will be able to have cheap robotaxis providing transport everywhere, making commutes easier, cheaper and safer while reducing carbon emissions. Lives will be saved from reduced accidents and pollution. Starlink is already on many planes transforming our flying experience and productivity while connecting people in remote areas that traditionally had little access, equalizing opportunities across the world. His Neuralink is helping dozens of paralyzed people to be able to interact with and control a computer or prosthetic. His Optimus robots will transform factories, homes and businesses. XAI will make work faster and easier, solve problems, develop applications. His investments have all provided tremendous benefit to us and the future benefit is a magnitude greater.

  @chrisw96722402 Proper tailoring is the easiest fix. So many are worn way too boxy. The coat should be tailored to your waist. I’d also recommend getting some better buttons. WWII buttons are super cheap, go on eBay and it’s going to be like $35 for a set. The new ones look and are cheap.

  Free Shipping: The Silent Sales Booster I started wondering about buyer paid shipping vs free shipping especially when the total cost to the buyer ends up exactly the same. One listing with a higher price and free shipping another with a lower price plus a separate shipping fee. It pulled me down a rabbit hole of reports and studies and I wanted to share what I found because it's pretty eye opening for anyone flipping on eBay. Free shipping often wins on conversions and sales speed even when the buyer pays the same amount overall. Amazon Prime set the bar high. Recent data puts US Prime members around 180 to 200 million so roughly 60 to 70 percent of adults have free fast shipping as their normal. Shoppers expect it, 66% want free on every order, 80% expect it above a threshold and up to 84% have bought specifically because shipping was waived. Free just feels like a win emotionally and people jump. Charging shipping as a separate line creates extra FRICTION. Buyers lock onto the lower item price and treat the shipping fee like an annoying add on. They downplay it or get irritated even when the math is identical. That extra step at checkout can make them hesitate or bounce. Tran's 2020 and 2024 analyses of eBay Germany data confirm buyers shrug off small separate shipping fees but demand jumps sharply when it's free. Marketplace insights seal it. Free shipping listings get 15 to 25 percent more views and 10 to 18 percent better conversion rates even at matching totals. eBay favors them in search visibility too which helps everything compound. Free cuts the hassle. No surprise fees at checkout. Feels cleaner and more valuable. For my flips I've gone 100% to free shipping after some experimenting over the last 4 months. Data points to faster sales less push back though category and margins decide the final call. Anyone else gone down this rabbit hole? You charging separate or going free?

  @Joffan7 For Zip2, he was using a Palo Alto dataset that was literally built by, maintained by, and given from the government. For PayPal, there was literally lobbying and legal work to get the online payment services to be allowed. The entire point is that the government gating allowed Elon and didn't allow, for instance, you. Without that government gating, PayPal doesn't become the ONLY option for a decade, so eBay buying it doesn't suddenly make $180M for Elon, which means the businesses he starts AFTERWARD don't exist in the same way. For both Tesla and SpaceX, government regulations have kept people from competing in those spaces. Elon's money allowed him through the gate so that he could play in the first place. The entire POINT is that the taxation and regulation by government has led to Musk's trillion. Without the government choosing winners and losers, Musk never becomes a trillionaire. Hell, the value of the dollar doesn't ALLOW a trillion dollars. Inflation has been 33.85x since 1913 (beginning of the Fed). The GDP of *Earth* was $111T in 2024. The entire POINT is that the "billionaire issue" comes from the government destroying our money system and choosing who's allowed to even PLAY in the market. They chose Musk. Now Musk has a shitload of <heavily devalued> money.

  @agent_resident7 I bought it on eBay as it's from the theater promotional material, the big issue is that I bought it on opening weekend so it was £33, now I'm not seeing any on there below £100 which is insane

  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

  @brockkraft @CardPurchaser So I just looked at recently sold on eBay and the last three sales on the chrome psa 10 are horrible so idk what to price it at. Probably just gonna keep it if the prices have crashed this bad. The flagship also.. looks like that one has come down a lot. Only the new applicant auto and the one out of /199 seem to have maintained over the past few months so id prob want to move those. New applicant auto - $700 Inspirational /199 - $100 But open to offers of course

  @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..

  Selling something on @eBay is awesome until you realize the buyer has 0 feedback. Then the Indians on eBay sides with them even though I have over 400 transactions without a single issue.

  @ParkedCards Why would you refund it? Ebay gives you a certain amount of Time to ship something. You did what was agreed on. And after that Point it is not your Problem anymore when it arrives. The buyer should know these risks.

  @AshtonEck8 Yeah I think he had a terrible take tbh, both online and shows have their pros/cons, but I absolutely think you can find better deals at shows. Unless your sniping new listings on eBay for a deal, almost everything is at “comps” or a little above

  @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
