FayMay Germany (@MimiHeartsLove) reported@KatoKLynn @FAYMAYent We also don't use line here. I chatted with the FayMay Entertainment line account and told them about the issues and they want to take care of it. It would be easier if they just sell it on Ebay or Amazon for international Fans. I don't know why Thailand don't use those options

🔥 MAD RUTH 🔥 ™️ (@DARKLORDMADRUTH) reported@NyobiComics @EthanVanSciver But tou said you already had it on Ebay so which is it? You tried to sell it on Ebay or you are going to put it on Ebay? The problem with liars is they always lose track of the lies.

Reaper (@Useless_Cog) reported@GMEThesis2 Let me break it down for you further. Tell me what would be better holding your position through the dilution that's coming or selling and buying eBay stuff assuming this deal goes through?

AJ |#1 CORNELIA STREET FAN| 🐍✒️ (@AJM1997AJM) reported@cassymcollins @Eras_Resale I really hope they can come through for me and help fix this! I even checked eBay as a last resort and they are $150+ 😭 scalpers are insane! It’s been about 35 minutes since they escalated my email, but I don’t want to send another in case it puts me at the bottom of the queue!

AgentOrange96 (@agentorange960) reported@haydendevs My strat was to buy an old HP scope from the 90's on eBay and fix it up. Although maybe get one with a color screen. I love mine but WHICH TRACE IS WHICH?

Paul Branham (@BoilerPaulie) reported@ValueAddedRS Very interesting indeed. I’ve never even considered sending a card straight to PSA from eBay, even though I’ve seen it. That has always seemed like a surefire way to tank your chances of getting a PSA 10 by trusting someone who potentially doesn’t understand the process to send it in for you. Even fingerprints or dust on the card can ruin your grade. As someone who has bought hundreds of trading cards over eBay, I’m not trusting someone else to wipe down my cards before they get graded. I’ll do it myself.

Plan B Expat (@planbexpat) reportedThe “move abroad and keep your salary zero tax” math always works in the post. It rarely works in real life. The tax saving is real. Your income is the problem, and nobody selling the dream says so. If you’re an employee, your employer is the first wall. Most won’t keep you on payroll where they have no entity. Many enforce a hard 183 day rule. So you get pulled back, let go, or rarely, moved to a contractor. That last one is the only version where the zero even starts to work. “I’ll just find remote work.” Good luck. Everyone wants the same arbitrage, so the seats paying North American rates are brutally competed, and they increasingly want you in a North American timezone anyway. This works for people who own portable income. Software first. Services second. Ecommerce a distant third, since processors such as Etsy, even EBay or sometimes Amazon freeze you the moment they see a foreign IP. One filter for who to trust. The dream sellers - on TikTok, Youtube or those convincing you can sell digital products living abroad - earn from the course, not the life. The honest ones can show real income from what they built abroad. If someone only profits from telling you how easy it is, that’s the tell. That’s the only reason the tax line works for some. They obtained legal residency, severed ties with their home country, owned a portable business that worked from anywhere. Residency before you need it. The boring steps are the whole game.

Vernaculist (@vernaculist) reported@ValueAddedRS Had a call w/an @ebay. It was a good call. Not a complaint, but an inquiry: Is the problem just that eBay doesn't have the buyer traffic? This went unanswered. Plainly nothing else makes sense. They've an interest in my promoted items selling 🧵👇(7pts)

Shannon Jean (@ShannonJean) reportedThe Net Profit question often appears in my DMs and comments when I post about buying and selling. Is there easy, passive income profit when buying products from auctions to resale? Nope. But here's how I made $557,127 profit from doing a ton of research about a product line I knew nothing about. Let's start with why I wanted to try this experiment. I’m a tech guy who builds tech companies. As you know from my previous posts, I always try to impress my awesome wife. But when I had 56,347 iPhones and iPads in my warehouse, the women in my life were not impressed. Then, I brought home a box of designer handbags that I came across, and the women in my life lost their minds. There was something here. I could feel it. I had just sold TechRestore and wanted to build a company with zero employees, using social commerce and building it just with my phone. I love starting over at 0. So, I began researching to be sure these handbags could be a good business. First, you swim upstream. I bought handbags from all the major players on social commerce sites like Poshmark and eBay. I wanted to see how their packaging looked, how their sales funnel functioned, and how they handled returns. All of these: not very good. I know how to do these 3 things very well. Just with computer parts, not handbags. How different could it be? Opportunity? Yes. I then needed suppliers. I have a great database of suppliers that find me very credible. Why? Because I am consistent, I pay on time and never complain about small problems. It took me 11 months to strike gold. After 149 calls and 348 emails (I track this stuff), one supplier referred me to another (probably just to shut me up), and I found my source. During these 11 months, I had been “warming up” my accounts on social commerce platforms. Learning how Poshmark worked, meeting the managers of the eBay handbag channel. Anything I could do to build credibility. About a year into it, I knew how to build followers on these marketplaces, how the shipping worked, how customer service functioned, and how to talk to primarily female customers buying handbags. I started selling. Like a rocket ship, the combination of a good supplier, great customer service, and business practices took off, and I started to get attention. So much attention that the CEO of Poshmark invited me to visit their headquarters. Uh oh! I am pretty sure they thought I was a woman. With my name and the fact that I wanted to make my female customers feel comfortable, I only posted pictures of me with my wife – I’m sure they were surprised when a dude with a beard showed up at their office. After a laugh, I got a tour and met with the CEO for a Q&A session. Super amazing. This post is getting long, so let’s fast forward: I sold over 7000 handbags on Poshmark and other social commerce marketplaces—$ 3.7M in revenue and $557,127 in profit. 83% of the handbags I sold, I bought from auctions. I did a bunch of consulting for Poshmark, and they loved me so much that I got access to their IPO. I still don’t know anything about fashion. However, I know how to find the delta between buying and selling and how to implement systems that work. I had so much fun and learned so much that I wrote a book about it. Poshmark Unlocked has sold thousands of copies, and I learned how to start a publishing business. Can anyone do this? Absolutely. It takes time, a willingness to spend hours doing research, experimenting and access to some capital. If you want to learn more about unconventional methods of building businesses and wealth, give me a follow @ShannonJean - I promise that it will be interesting and fun!

Nixon's Head 🇺🇸 (@Nixons_Head_) reported@Greyfox2401 @SabreWuff The problem with selling things on ebay for $5 is that you'll need another $12 just to cover the expense of shipping the item.

🏴☠️ Alex 🇺🇸 (@arichie_rich) reported@RoaringSensei @CustomerEbay @eBay Before and after the issue. Suspected the issue may arise, called, they told me it was normal. Now have deal with a refund process, that i tried to avoid. Long story short I, the seller, paid for the transaction. Lolllllllll

Greedy Puppet (@Greedy_Show) reported@foxenflask @ValueAddedRS yeah when I been on Etsy site im like how can they sell all this **** that obviously has no trademark. Its on Ebay but less. After Game Stop takes Ebay they will prob get sued for copy right infringement when the fraternity party gets broken up.

darius (@dariusXDPrime) reported@KreekCraft If this change happens, a lot of people will basically sell their stuff on ebay, and quit games that have trading system aka half of roblox. This is not beneficial to anyone, it hurts both the users and Roblox as a company. I hope they dont implement this and it was just an error

Pika-Wan-kenobi (@RhiannonVinado) reportedIf this happens it destroys a giant set of jobs that became created! You think pokemon can’t fix the problem? Of course they can. But how many streamers are making a living off resells? How much is eBay and whatnot making? The ppl who own Pokemon prob have stock in some of these secondary markets. So they win twice!
-
ClevelandCollector (@Chuckmanintexas) reported@_bismack_ I switched to card savers a year ago and won't turn back. No a single postage due issue with hundreds of cards. Only issue is the random missing card, and that is just whatever at this point. Make the change. People won't care. State your shipping policy in the eBay listing.

Charles Gasparino (@CGasparino) reported@PhantomBlack699 that guy said you were in prison. true? wow some voice you have dummy. meanwhile amc is down today and theres no ebay deal for gme dummy. sad ha!

valuemarketwatch (@valuemarktwatch) reported$GME just blew past Q1 earnings by 172% and Ryan Cohen is waging a takeover bid for eBay. The community is buzzing that the short squeeze is imminent. Sales jumped 14% to $835.3 million, with collectibles soaring 65%. Ryan Cohen's bold $56 billion offer to buy eBay, while rejected, puts GME on the map for strategic moves. A new $2 billion buyback is also on the table. There's a 32% chance the stock climbs from here, driven by 14.1% short interest and the narrative momentum from Cohen's actions. If buyers step in to bet against the shorts and the collectibles trend continues, prices could get a lift. However, the stock sits below its longer-term average price, a sign that the overall trend is still pointing down. With eBay already saying no to Cohen's offer, and fundamental doubts still present for a retailer, there's a 34% chance the stock could fall further if enthusiasm fades. Keep an eye on any further moves by Ryan Cohen or the collectibles segment's performance in the next report.

✨rachie✨ (@RachiesArt) reported@stonershelb eBay tbh!! As long as the seller has good reviews I’ve never had issues and it’s usually fast shipping

Dice (@honeydice_) reported@WestCoast_Goodz Man, “summer slow down,” “q1 slow down,” “dying platform.” I’ve had to deal with people telling me their eBay sales are dying every season, every month, every year, since I started but my sales have kept going up. It’s definitely the platform, not their fault.

RYNOS SPORTS CARDS (@rynoscards) reportedI love catching @Ebay customer service in a lie and having all the proof I need because their tracking system is having issues that they won't admit it. Oh, and Ebay stop saying they are reps when I can simply type in 3 phrases used by you "rep" in an A.I. generator and it spits out the same response.

DannyBTalks (Daniel Baldwin) (@DannyBTalks) reported@DaleJr Am I wrong...or do I recall there being articles about you and eBay being an issue wayyyy back before you ever even joined Twitter? Feels like a memory I have now.
