    @eBayForBusiness @eBay I am experiencing a severe technical issue with my appeal process. I originally appealed an "Item Not Received" claim because I didn't have the package, but agents filed duplicate appeals without my knowledge, resetting the timeline. I now have the item but remain trapped in a cycle of denied appeals. I need to file an appeal regarding the buyer damaging the product, not "Item Not Received." Please correct these erroneous filings and escalate this for seller protection. Going on two weeks now.

    @sheznic @eBay And then once it's shipped the buyer can say virtually anything and get to keep it for free, or ship it back broken at the seller's expense, shipping both ways.

    @jsquit @Official_LMM_ The problem is selling customs, not making them or giving them away, right? Let's say I sell a $50 pencil on eBay but give away a free custom 1/64 for each pencil sold. Would that be illegal?

    Retail-after-sale dropshipping is fragile: thin margins, slow delivery, and policy risk. Quaymber gives lean eBay sellers verified wholesale sourcing, landed-cost and stock comparisons, plus policy-aware listing, inventory, and order workflows. Live soon.

    @Eternal_Saints_ Whenever I can't find something on eBay/Amazon, my go to is Eborn, Benchmark, or Confetti books. Some of the best stuff I've bought through Eborn: - Robert F. Smith's Unpublished Manuscript "Urim" - Mr. Boren and the White Salamander, Mormonism Magic and Masonry, and other harder to find Jerald/Sandra Tanner pamphlets - Various Ogden ***** pamphlets - 1883 Salt Lake School of the Prophets Minute Book - Levi and Mosiah Hancock Journal - Poetical Writings of Orson F. Whitney My most recent order was supposed to be Gospel Problems and Supplement to Gospel Problems by Heber Bennion, but the former turned out to be out of stock and refunded

    Never thought I’d type this sentence out, but $GME looks like a buy here? Seems like Ryan Cohen turned the business around by leaning into collectibles. SG&A down massively, margins seeing huge improvements, trading at <6x EV/core earnings. Online providers show $4 bn EV but that doesn’t account for price gains on the EBAY shares, current EV is likely sub $3 bn now. Outcome will be dependent on their acquisition target but Cohen has proved he can operate the business well. He also changed the incentive structure so he doesn’t get paid out for just making an acquisition, which previously made me quite skeptical. Given that it’s a meme stock that’s chopped sideways for years now I wouldn’t be surprised to see retail that was sold try to chase price if it rallies.

    @resellingnews It’s either incompetence from distributors or theft at the packaging and/or production level, the same thing happened in the sneaker scene IIRC. Also, that’s the ONLY one that @eBay took down so far. There’s a Gengar ex SIR, Salamence ex SIR, and other cards that are still up.

    @SakurasCardShop Definitely agreed and its a shame. I had a little chuckle when I saw that thing going around that TPCI had eBay take down the 30th anniversary listings on the website. People say 'See, they do care!!' all while Whatnot streamers have been ripping the 30th on the platform for months and with videos like this going around and nothing happens or will happen.

    It’s such bullshit how every big company (Amazon? eBay, etc) can snatch money out of your account instantly, yet it takes 5-15 business days to get it back. It can be a complete error, and it’s on you to dispute it and wait.i should be able to take my **** right back.

    @Decentguyusedto Gauntlet was the GOAT. Loved that game. I regret not buying an old Gauntlet machine that was for sale on ebay many years ago. It may have caused trouble in our marriage having this take up room in our house, but...GAUNTLET!

    @1Nicdar Not long after we married, my wife wanted a KitchenAid stand mixer. I couldn’t afford a new one, even at black Friday discount. I ended up buying a used one off ebay for $50 plus shipping. The lady warned me that it wasn’t in great, but that it worked. We used it for about 4-5 years until I bought my wife a newer, larger one. She handed it down to my stepdaughter who got about 3 years before it started leaking oil terribly.

    @IowaTesla Wow! Now I’m wondering how long mine will last. In Phoenix summers, my garage goes over 105 regularly, (drops to like 90 at night). My only potential saving grace is I charge super low at like 5-8a typically. Hope you get your issue resolved, and if not keep that beautiful red glass to use on your next charger. I recently found a blue one on eBay for an absurdly high price. I wish the still sold them in the shop. Good Luck Jim!

    You have to instigate a return with ebay. Simply click on your Order Number at the top of this page and utilize the 'drop down' menu for Returns on the Order Page.

    Ebay app search sorted by “Best Match” is currently broken, only returning 0 listings. @eBay your backend is bad and you should feel bad.

    @minaunlovable Is it general gift card or company specific cuz eBay and Amazon sell good condition refurbished for decent prices. Also used CPUs good too but bit riskier, I never had problems w used CPUs tho.

    I spent the entire day at home yesterday. Like didn’t leave once. I legit don’t know the last time that’s happened. 10-20-30 years. I cooked, cleaned, bought coins on eBay, and took 3-4 naps. Might go down as the greatest day I’ve had.

    @eBay The seller even told me: “We apologize for the title which we were not the author of and did not write. We will not be able to issue this return.” But eBay policy says sellers remain responsible for listing content created using eBay tools. @eBay, please explain this

  • ALTPEPEEEEEEE
    MEGACARDINVESTOR (@ALTPEPEEEEEEE) reported

    @isBlessedaWish The only thing is, even if I got a sale on eBay, there’s an issue with international shipping as I reckon there will be much international interest. It lays heavily on the seller to ship it, insure and because of the amount, there would be no authentication guaranteed. It’s way too risky unless the buyer came in person to pick it up and the deal was made with a wire. Even for a domestic sale, I’d be extremely wary of shipping on my own this card to a buyer or eBay. The burden should lie with the auction house. Fanatics will send you an insured label for next day shipping to their location. Be better to just hop on a plane and drop it off.

    @Radios4Freedom @Nissan Yes. They told Ebay I was fraudulently selling an item (a used part from a 20 year old Infiniti), which not only removed the listing, but penalized my account. I'm not the only one. Nissan burned many bridges, and they'll never recover the enthusiasts who left, who were the only ones defending Nissan against criticism. I just went through a long Grok thing about it, because I had it examine my post for fun, but Nissan is in more trouble than it looks like they are. They're climbing the hill, but there's no bridge at the top to the next one, and nobody's going to step up to catch them when they tip over the next side.

    @radioofam @CardPurchaser Here is my explanation: don’t use it. I’ve used eBay all of my life and other than selling a cheap card and using that cheap service, I’ve never had issues before. I feel like it’s a 40% chance customer never received it with a 50% chance of a negative feedback

  • SimpleJack

    10/ The Skeptic Deserves a Chair at the Table There is a completely ordinary explanation for nearly every piece of this story. Power Packs may simply be a successful commercial partnership. The eBay stake may remain a large financial investment. The converts may be sensible financing, the warrants may expire with limited economic effect, and tokenized GME products may remain too small to influence the underlying market in any measurable way. That competing explanation does not break the framework because the framework does not require common intent. It requires interaction only when the economic flows become large enough to interact. If the tokenized reserve stays tiny, its GME specific importance should be marked down. If accessible borrow expands during supposed constraint periods, the scarcity model should weaken. If collectibles fail to produce attractive attributable economics, the operating side loses its claim on the valuation story. The same discipline applies to capital allocation. If the note exchange creates dilution without sufficient balance sheet benefit, if the eBay stake earns an unattractive return, if warrants add shares without compensating treasury value, or if management repeatedly uses equity when repurchases would create superior per share value, the activist conclusion changes. Optionality earns no exemption from arithmetic. The Filings That Can Prove Me Wrong The coming filings offer unusually clean tests. The completed note exchange should reveal the actual share issuance and remove much of the uncertainty around the confidential floor mechanics. Future quarterly reports can show whether collectibles growth produces durable revenue and margin, how liquidity changed after the eBay settlement, and whether warrant exercise becomes economically meaningful as expiration approaches. Sources: GameStop Form 8 K and Exhibit 99.1, August 3, 2026, SEC accession 000132638026000042; GameStop Form 10 Q, quarter ended May 2, 2026, SEC accession 000132638026000025; GameStop warrant prospectus and related filings, October 2025, SEC accession 000132638025000091 Ownership filings can also clarify how large noteholders reposition after the exchange. Market structure data can test whether GME1 open interest, borrow conditions, settlement behavior, and tokenized reserve inventory actually move with periods of equity constraint. If those variables remain statistically dull, the market structure branch should stay interesting as architecture and small as explanation. The tokenization branch has perhaps the cleanest falsifier of all. If third party tokenized GME products remain tiny, reserve balances remain stable, and lending data show no meaningful interaction with the underlying stock, the branch becomes economically immaterial to GME. If the products scale and reserve, lending, creation, redemption, and collateral data become observable, they may provide a rare window into share reuse that traditional public datasets usually hide.

    @WindowsCentral No. After many years of frustration with Windows since 7 but especially 11, I decided to try a Mac and bought an M3 Air. It just works, no issues, rapid and smooth, I can work 3 days on one charge. My two Windows laptops Dell and Lenovo will soon be on sale on ebay…
