Brad Miller (@sirbrad4) reported@WhiteHouse So why's small businesses going broke from tariffs then you fat lying orange ****? Why am I still paying tariffs on eBay when they were struck down as ILLEGAL ****** FELON? Why have I not yet received those $5,000 DOGE & Tariff Dividend checks that you now said you never said? 🤡

Michael Epstein (@mepstein311) reportedWhen most of us think GameStop, we think meme stock. Dead brand walking. Did you catch that they just posted the highest quarterly net income in company history? $389.6 million. 🤯 I spent 25 years running PE-backed brand turnarounds. What Ryan Cohen pulled off here is crazy impressive. So I dug into their latest earnings and found many of same plays I've run in nearly every turnaround I've been a part of. Some tips you can apply to your biz: 1. Cut once, cut deep. GameStop slashed SG&A by $800 million since 2021. 47%. Not "tightening our belts." A machete. Companies and culture dies from a thousand cuts because leadership doesn't have the stomach to make the hard call early. Cohen made it. SG&A went from 31% of revenue to 24% in 1 year. 2. Kill your losers. GameStop closed over 1,000 stores in 18 months. Divested Canada entirely. Divesting France. Operators cut the limbs to save the body. Every underperforming store was consuming cash and management attention. Gone. 3. Follow the signal. Collectibles went from 29% of revenue to 42% in one year. Up 65% YoY while hardware and software declined. They found the one category with margin expansion, customer enthusiasm, and growth. Then they poured fuel on it. Too many brands spread resources evenly across every product line. Find what's working. Double down. 4. Build a fortress balance sheet. GameStop is sitting on $9.7 billion in cash and liquid assets. Now, a lot of that came from selling equity during the meme price spike times. You don't have that option. But the principle holds: cash is oxygen. Every turnaround I've ever run started with "how do we get to positive cash flow in 90 days?" You can't make bold moves from a position of weakness. 5. Turn your liabilities into assets. GameStop just submitted a bid to buy eBay. Sounds crazy until you hear the thesis: use 1,600 retail stores as fulfillment, authentication, and live commerce nodes for the world's largest collectibles marketplace. The best turnaround operators don't just cut. They reframe what the company actually is. I'm not saying go buy GameStop stock. I have no idea if it's a good bet or not. My point is whether you're running a $5M brand or a $500M one, thinking like a turnaround operator is helpful not just when things are broken. Always. The best time to fix a company is before it needs fixing.

Gestalt (@___Gestalt) reported@bavedikian @BestBuy @FedEx if you buy on eBay the transaction is not complete until the seller delivers the product to you, the seller is responsible for any issues in shipping
-
Polsia (@polsia) reportedRetail returns are a $644B problem. Liquidation pallets are the opportunity. Built FlipDeck — buy bulk returns at 10-90% off retail, resell across eBay, Amazon, Facebook. The market is there. The margins are there. Now build.

Aaron Lemke (@aaronlemke) reportedMy ADU was broken into recently and several musical instruments were stolen. So I built Vigilanthony An agent who tracks stolen items. It has a list of all my stolen items, and every morning scans online marketplaces like Craigslist and Ebay along with several **** shop sites surrounding the Austin area. It then analyzes the results and looks for matches with my item list. No hits yet but we will stay vigilant. ✊

Hunter (@printstatemnt) reportedWhen I was at BGSU I used to buy bent pin AM4 CPUs for cheap on eBay and straighten them out with a razor blade. Built ~4 PCs for friends on the cheap with broken-ish parts
-
CarolinaMama (@IamCarolinaMama) reported@bavedikian @BestBuy @FedEx I smell some waste, fraud and abuse going on here. By hiring and retaining criminals (who steal and likely resell the goods), FedEx should be liable as an accessory to a crime imho. Best Buy owes you a refund, but FedEx is knowingly supporting a criminal. I’ve had similar issues buying on eBay for electronics to disappear at the USPS. The tracking number in limbo forever, postal service offers no help. Just inexplicably lost in a facility. Seller refunded, but there must be a **** ton of criminals in shipping. I’m really getting fed up with all the fraud.

🎰⁷ (@ilovemyweedpen) reportedme when i sell sports cards to girlies and nb folks: ohhh let me round the price down!! me when i sell sports cards to ebay sports bros: 150%
-
Hans Gruber (@endozduopoly) reported@hamad2196 @eBay Same here. I tried to resolve the issue in good faith, but all I received were generic 'parting ways' emails with no explanation or action I could take. I was shocked at how bad their processes are.

Mike (@ultramikes) reported@realmaduk @eBay It's happening with tesla app too. Spoke to apple support and they said it's not an apple issue.
-
Batenswytch (@Batenswytch) reported@1horsetown_IA Yeah, this is very true. You can get 1900s, 1910s sets of silver plate on ebay pretty reasonable still - I assume they aren't worth trying to melt down for so little actual silver.
-
MoltenGear (@Molten_gears) reportedwon a ebay bidding and got a crazy good deal and then my bank blocked my card 12 times over and then told me to walk a mile to their store to fix it. love it
-
👑Magnifishit🧻 (@TheMagnifishit) reported@ShaunFitzzzy @Moyagi5 @EchoChamber741 Delaware Section 203 makes anything over 15% not worth it. That makes any GME takeover related votes pass through the board first for 3 years. This is also why Prop 4 to reduce the eBay special meeting requirement down from 20% to 10% so critical

Alexander Swenson (@_Swence_) reportedThis is super misleading. Ai doom and gloom is getting out of control. Just try calling: • Verizon • AT&T • Comcast • Microsoft • Amazon • Google • Apple • Chase • Bank of America • Capital One • Wells Fargo • Walmart • Target • eBay • Geico • Progressive • State Farm None of these huge American companies use American call centers. Those “American jobs” fearmongers cry about weren’t staying here anyway - they’re not even here now. They were all shipped overseas (India, Philippines, etc.) AI handling the routine stuff (password resets, billing) can actually bring better service back stateside while keeping humans for complex issues. The real threat to US customer service jobs was offshoring. AI might finally help reverse it. Stop the panic.

🐝🇬🇷 (@bee_fumo) reported@gnukeith I wonder if these will be enterprise devices and down the line you'll get them for a fraction of the price on ebay, much like thinkpads.

Simon Says (@Options_Experts) reportedI will be pre-ordering 10 physical copies of GTA6. Here's why. With Christmas right around the corner, the game could easily sell out. Demand will be insane. Anybody who wants to gift a physical copy will be screwed. Prices on EBay will skyrocket. Even if I'm wrong, I just sell out and break even. And many ppl, like me, way prefer the physical copy rather than digital. Digital cannot travel. And digital is at the mercy of slow internet speeds or bogged down WiFi. I suspect I wont be the only one ordering 10 copies... $TTWO #Gta6

Its a mad world (@realmaduk) reported@ultramikes @eBay Guess we’ll have to wait for another update hopefully fixes the issue. I’ve even tried deleting and reinstalling same thing
-
Lior Pozin (@lior_pozin) reportedSo I decided to open a new eBay account, but the moment I did, I started thinking about what would happen if eBay suspended me again Instead of waiting to find out, I decided to start 100 eBay accounts straight away I created them all manually and started managing them, but I ran into a lot of issues. And that's how I decided I needed the software

Beepz⁷⁷ (@MexicantrevorZ) reported@Brookenbells I dunno cause I shouldve checked if it couldve been refunded or not they might just say its an ebay problem
-
JoeyA (@JosephAnastas17) reported@MKG_Sports I stopped doing business with eBay 5 years ago cuz of a dispute I had with a buyer where they claimed i sent the wrong item and had pics and video of what I sent. Since then I packed up and sell on Mercari now. Zero issues 5 years strong
-
Mat Helm (@mathelm64) reported@bavedikian This happen to me by Fedex over a decade ago... Even had video of the Fedex truck slowing down as it passed my house about the time they showed it delivered. They didn't even want to see the video, but the seller (Ebay, not Best Buy) made it good. Don't know if Fedex paid up.

KKATC CARDS (@KKATCCards) reportedDespite eBay’s decision to permaban my account. V1.8 continues to be developed for eBay users. A one-time login between KKATC Cards and your main account: All of your purchases will be imported to inventory with your cost basis properly recorded based on the transaction. All your eBay sales with a click of a button will be imported with proceeds properly broken out based on the transaction. The goal is to only reduce manual importing to your off-marketplace inventory/sales and other expenses for your resale operation. Once you import your offline transactions, you will have a professional-grade Schedule C and soon to come Schedule E workpapers built by a tax professional with IRC and IRM guidance built in. Ready to hand to your CPA or import into your own software. That is only the reseller use case. Breakers, Stack Sellers and Lots operations use cases are live. That is what KKATC Cards is. Designed to reduce your increasing tax burden.

Frank (@FrankRants) reportedYall can't be mad at Ryan Cohen. He has been honest with you from the start. GME was a dogshit company when he took over. He finally has it turned around however, this was always a long term investment. RC has said so. If you are bothered by the price being dogshit now, I suggest selling. It could easily be another 5 years before you see a significant return. He really stepped in to save a bunch of retail investors from a terrible investment and he's doing that but it wont be fast. Let's see if he gets ebay. That would be transformational but it requires all the big players to approve of it....because they are the ones who will vote on it. Stop checking the price every day and go outside. Love your family. Check back in every few months. As long as Ryan is in I am in. Oh yeah....and shorts never closed. 🚀🚀 #gme #rocket

Orbit RolaCoasta (@RolaCoasta) reported@CharioBro @XBOX @Halo I understand that real people actual got them, and that's great! But from my experience in the gaming space for this many years, and especially after experiencing when the current generation of Xbox's released back in 2020, a lot of them did indeed get scalped and sold for way more on various platforms, just browse ebay and Facebook marketplace, you'll see a ton of them over MSRP. I understand where you're coming from but this is definitely a real issue that a lot of others besides myself complain about. Companies need to implement more of a secure and fair way of purchasing these limited edition products, because if not this will continue.
