  It’s so easy to open your phone, hop on eBay and buy a PS2 game Any time I want to add an NES game to the collection I have to sit down and figure out what inserts came with it and which variant I want to buy and THEN dig through listings to see if there’s even a CIB listed

  @Jtsbae69 I started using eBay in college & stick with that since I’ve built reviews. Starting fresh, I’d go down a Reddit rabbit hole, there are so many damn options now. See what sounds best. Make sure whatever you go with has seller protections!

  @pasch_8759_eBay @CardPurchaser @tm1515152005 Had the same issue yesterday (TWICE) with the same Kirby Puckett card that I even talked to an eBay representative about and he suggested I just relist it? No idea what they’re doing with their new AI filters

  Made my first mistake on eBay tn. Listed a card (over $20) with my PWE shipping cost (I set a flat rate of 1.25 for PWE). Shipping is $6, anyway to change/fix this or am I just out the $5. No big deal if so, this is what happens when I list cards extremely tired. @CardPurchaser

  $GME popping on prelims. Sales down vs last year, profit up on the eBay mark, and they used cash to cap dilution. That's the meme print.

  HowlingHemorrhoids (@DeadlessHick) reported 24 minutes ago

  A funny thing about ebay for me is when I get a wild hair up my *** on buying stuff, like a new HDD to replace a dead one in my server, I'll peruse the auctions with current bids ~50% below market value, and then place a max bid of ~80% market value. Often times I do this, I see that someone else has already placed a higher max bid than I'm willing to do. So I feel like a gremlin running around ebay casually helping sellers and causing the other bidders to lose a chance at a true deal. I got a $420 camera lens for $200 doing this method though.

  Why is the Camera in EastEnders wobbling up and down? Do they know you can buy a tripod from eBay. How much did that multimillion pound set refurbishment cost?

  @paypal - leaving another message to be lost in wilderness of the internet. Had to do a chargeback for what seems to be a clear item not received issue. Never open these type of cases, but both @eBay and @paypal denied a simple case. Both their customer services are subpar.

  The Really Bad Golfer (@therlybadglfer) reported 31 minutes ago

  @eBay why do you allow terrible people like this on your platform? He replies to feedback with threats and stalking (when I ran a background check), brings in users family's (you have a 10 year old), deflects any blame or responsibility, and it just horrible. You should kick him off the platform.

  @thewebbie @amazon The fluctuating delivery times I can live with; I just expect that as a result of the many variables inherent in online shopping. The packaging quality, however, is a big problem. Amazon built its sales volume on cut-rate shipping deals with USPS and UPS that other retailers couldn't match. That could hold out unless -guess what- we suffer an inflationary period driving up energy and labor costs. Now they can't afford to pay for proper boxes, packing, and skilled workers to sort & pack properly. (For anyone with an eBay side hustle you know that's actually quite a skill). So I concur that the amount of large items shipped in cheap envelopes is increasing, meaning we get more broken and missing stuff. Amazon will keep doing this until the cost of refunds and returns overwhelm the packaging savings...and I fear the end of the "free shipping" era is near.

  @FoxgirlGoRawr Yep! Overall, I've not had terrible luck with returns given the amount of things I've sold on ebay but it does happen from time to time & for some cursed reason I've had a few returns in the past couple weeks. It's abnormal to have multiple in such a short time and I don't like it lol

  A few weeks back I bought this card from a tip on @enzo_tcg discrod. This card comes from the Blue Trial Deck of FW from 2023, basically one of the first leader cards of all FW. Hard to find in EN, this is the only version I could get my hands on EBay. Even if this card does not meet expectations down the road, I love the “vintagy” look of it. Source and user name: dissociated, thanks for bringing this into attention. Appreciate it!

  @The_Top_Loader Your only problem with Snes controllers is the plastic decaying or the seals in the D-pad & buttons vapourising. Even those, eBay will accommodate you.

  Anyone else notice how much better listing has gotten? I hadn’t listed cards on eBay in a while because of the fees and how long it took. Used to be 3–5 minutes per card. Listed a few Laz and Rainiel cards today and the AI had me down to about a minute each. @CardPurchaser

  @tahiniok Yes it's called the AuraTone phone antenna. I you can pick one up on eBay from the manufacturer bypassing me and saving yourself some money. I don't want you to pay extra with me if money is an issue that is why it's open source. I have a post on who I go through somewhere.
