Michael Perrone (@perroneage) reported@Ob1JohnKenob1 @eBay Always seems to be far too common an issue whenever I find a nice Chrome card that I like. I hate this issue more than the roller lines, tbh.

My twenties was a very dark period I had a lot of fun but underneath when I wasn’t I was constantly being harassed and stalked i still am to this day i just had to learn things to ease it up a bit constantly had fake women who were most likely men trying to blackmail me it would happen a lot. I had a brain aneurysm in 2011 I know they tried to kill me I AM NOT SUPPOSED TO BE ALIVE I AM A GLITCH IN THE MATRIX I AM SUPPOSED TO BE DEAD. They threw the kitchen sink at me and I survived through it all and came back I don’t know how. Yama tallies my karma and I hope to lead the life of the Eightfold path and no longer give into the 3 poisons I want out of the matrix and I will leave and not come back I just hope I can stay on this path and get off the wheel of life.

Ryo Kaito Sakurai (@TheRyoSakurai) reported@night5731 @Black_D_Gamer1 The problem comes in when a kid can't get a Pokemon card pack in a local store, or their parents can't get them the merch from that target crossover because scalpers took everything along with the display boxes and metal shelves then spiked up the price on Ebay.

bad robot ventures (@foxenflask) reportedMid-way through last year, somebody won an auction for a stapler from $GME that was listed on eBay, and it made national news. There was a charity component to that auction and a further donation from the winner, that was super cool and made the whole thing super wholesome. I believe it was the first official listing from GameStop's then-new eBay account, which is cool to think about in retrospect. But then, that person and his team, almost immediately, started using this recognition and reach to promote something called GameStop on Ethereum, a shitcoin that has absolutely nothing to do with GameStop. A bunch of influencers from the community helped him, and he even had big names with 1M+ followers talking about how "cool" it was that this guy was buying up this shitcoin that is backed by absolutely nothing, because it had limited supply. A lot of poeple bought in, both to the shitcoin and the hype. They used GameStop's nationwide and social-wide recognition to promote their agenda of buying this shitcoin. I raised alarm bells and even messaged the person directly, as well as some of his friends and associates saying how wrong it was that they were using the GameStop cash tag to promote this crap without clarifying that it had nothing to do with GameStop and it was a really bad look, not just for the person doing this, but for GameStop as well to be associated with this shitcoin. That is already a wide-ranging problems on many crypto platforms, and actions like this from people that know better makes this problem worse. They even had a physical event that they claimed was GameStop sponsored at first, but then GameStop had them remove their logo and any mentions of official sponsorship from GameStop from their event page. Well, a picture is worth a thousand words. Maybe in this case a picture is worth millions of dollars. Not cool. I have all of that person and his teams shenanigans blocked, but please beware of crypto scams associating themselves with GameStop. One thing I hope that comes from the Clarity act is more enforcement, and some harsh criminal repercussions for defrauding the general public. If they make an example of a few, everyone else will fall in line and take their scams elsewhere. This is not the first time and it won't be the last. The plan is always to grab attention, then extract or divert capital. Be careful out there folks.

noDraft (@noDraft10) reported@TheDrugMoney $0 side hustle start up - sell stuff you already have but don’t use on eBay. Take that money, go to garage sales, thrift stores, estate sales and buy things to sell on eBay. Rinse repeat. Scale up or down as much as you want.

V! 🌸 (@VirtualMementos) reported@dajorno the only problem with ebay is those listings have 20$ extra plus shipping soooo idk lol But I def will wait it out

Clector (@clectorapp) reported@SleeperNFL The card market's actually been drifting the other way. Jonathon Brooks trades at a $27 average, down slightly the last six weeks on 300 eBay tracked sales in 90 days. So there's not just no hype priced in, collectors have been fading him. If he flies up the boards, that reverses fast. Cheap entry before the crowd.

misterx51(Windows/Linux) (@misterxav51) reported@YourselfSuit If it can comfort you we have this problem as well in Canada with some carriers - some are too lazy to use the stairs or knock at the right door. Many of my eBay orders have been delayed because the delivery guy was too lazy to do his job.

Dram McCloudigan (@dreamcloudigan) reported@sneedweb eBay has been money laundering for years. Not to mention child trafficking. They’ve got way bigger problems.

20th Century Boxing: Icons, Memories & More (@20thCentBoxIMM) reportedFlash Gordon's weekly newsletter features Leroy Haley on its cover on July 26, 1982. Haley had won the WBC Junior Welterweight Title on June 26th with a 15-round split decision over Saoul Mamby in Ohio. Gordon's newsletters were among the finest boxing coverage around and he was an MSG mainstay on fight nights back when boxing was part of New York's, America's, and the world's sporting mainstream. ---------------------------------------------------------- From the Malcolm “Flash” Gordon Tribute by Eric Bottjer in 2014: One of boxing’s most important journalists passed recently. Malcolm “Flash” Gordon, approximately 66, a literal recluse the past 30 years, is gone. No surviving relatives are known. No former friends had seen him in years, despite his occupying the same Queens apartment for more than 40 years, until his death. From 1968 to 1986, “Flash” published, edited, and was the primary writer for “Tonight’s Boxing Program,” a weekly newsletter that contained more insight, humor, gossip and innuendo in one issue than any boxing publication of the same time could produce in one year. Flash was a guerrilla warrior, selling his issues outside events in New York and Philadelphia and neither giving nor receiving any favors (gifts, meals, etc. ) from anyone in the business. Flash broke two major stories – the fixed ABC TV United States championships tournament promoted by Don King in 1977 (which garnered him little credit and no money); Flash also was the sole shrill voice stating SOMETHING was wrong with Harold Smith’s MAPS promotions, that they were losing millions of dollars a month. Writers with much better resources somehow ignored the obvious, content to attend shows which turned out to be financed with embezzled millions from Wells Fargo (21. 5 million, the largest such bank theft in U. S. history). Flash lost heart in the mid 1980’s. His publication came out sporadically at the end. A promised 1986 record book never materialized. He simply disappeared. For years after, there were occasional rumors. He was spotted in the New York Public Library reading old newspapers. Don King – or one of his henchman – had done away with him (people actually considered this ridiculous notion). I never met Flash, nor spoke to him. While living in Europe in 1980, he sent me a sample copy of TBP. I subscribed immediately. It was a must-read and his work ethic and instincts were formidable. At the end, six years later, paranoia had seeped into his writing – and his mind. About twelve years ago, Jack Obermayer and I staked out Flash’s apartment. We waited in a car for about 90 minutes until I felt silly enough to go in and knock on his door. Jack called to him – we heard something – not a voice, but something made noise. Flash never answered. And in 2009, luck. I ordered a St. Louis Post-Dispatch Sunday magazine – a cover story on Leon Spinks – on Ebay for $5. The sender was Malcolm Gordon from Queens, New York. I wrote him a brief letter, stating that I was a former subscriber, that I loved the issues, etc. The new quicktype keyboard even features multi-touch gestures for moving the cursor around or selecting text. A week later, a 3-paragraph reply. Perfectly sane, thanking me for writing him, briefly explaining that he quit producing TBP because boxing had devolved as a business and that the competition was getting worse (the IBF was fairly new, producing a then-ridiculous three world champions in an increasing number of weight classes). I don’t know how a person can live literally alone for 30 years. But I know this: Flash Gordon was an important boxing writer in the 20th century. He should be in the New York Boxing Hall of Fame (not that he would have wanted or attended induction, but, hey, he’s gone now, so it won’t offend him).

Fadi (@FadiEcomAI) reported@EverydayResell The $32,315 between total sales and eBay earnings is the number most sellers never write down. Congrats on 168 days of logging every dollar.

Neil (@njjea) reported@stephenhdg @eBay Drop shipping is the issue, the sellers never have the stock

SuupurSanicc (@SuupurS) reported@XellTweets That's the problem. Casual players want to use casual decks and have fun, not play against the same 2 tier 0 decks over and over because someone reallllyyyy wants to resell a shiny card on ebay to someone who cant afford it. Like.... it sucks.

Professor Victini (@ProfVictini) reportedCasually browsing Ebay for some miscut/ error cards, and came across this amazing error card: CGC 7 ERROR Double Print 1 Side Blank Larvitar Obsidian Flames Pokemon 105/197 Larvitar is printed on the back instead of the front, and the other side is totally blank. Wonder how this card leaked out from the factory.

Stinky (@stinkywinkle) reported@MarioBrothBlog Man I remember when I was a kid I played my cousin $10 for his game boy camera. He said he’d bring it next time he visited, but it was a full year later and he’d forgotten. My heart was broken. Don’t know why I didn’t just get one off of eBay, I think it was 2003 or 4.

-&C. Communiqué 🇺🇸 (@ClearCastComms) reported@jbezzie_jesse @PizzaPepe unless you run GrapheneOS. You might also be able to get an old Verizon hotspot and flash Ray Hunter to warn you of these collection methods..... you MAY be able to. I don't know. Definitely do not go on eBay. They sell a bunch of old hotspots for a few dollars. Terrible... terrible...

Keith Violette (@AirRocketGlider) reported@gak_pdx I can't like this tweet enough. I prefer the Juice XE6, I have one in my left front pocket for 20 years. Sucks that they discontinued them. I've had to find used ones on eBay. Considering trying to rebuild the broken ones by replacing the rivets.
-
RAJ (@israjsonu) reported@GergelyOrosz Counterpoint from the eng side: the doc that doesn't get read is usually the one written to cover the author, not to make a decision. The design docs that survived at eBay were one screen, the decision, the two options we rejected, and why. When the reader can't find the decision in 20 seconds they stop. That's a writing problem more than an attention problem.

LeosCardz (@YoitisLeo) reported@footballcardfun could i yes? how I would trim down to the 5 cards that i cant easily find on ebay/or the ones that have gone up the most in value since I acquired them. but it would be very difficult.

Daryl Porter (@dwp1059) reported@Priangshu33678 @eBay I am dealing with the same issue with my account. I so tried to sell 2jerseys that were legitimate one from the Company puma and the other from Nike. I had receipts on these items and they still said they were counterfeit. I’ve seen other website websites that sell identical item

Baker Mayfield Statue (@statue_baker) reported@BoCamaro @ItsJamesHall Some guy at the gas station tried to convince babseball cards are a great investment and he sold his truck and used the money to buy a **** ton of graded cards on Ebay. I just laughed at him. He couldn't even tell me Mark McGwire's rookie card year or what the Billy Ripkin error card had on it.

EverydayReseller (@EverydayResell) reportedDay 169 Total sales: $458.97 Buy cost (COG): $44.66 eBay earnings: $208.01 Net profit: $163.35 ROI: 365% Not every day is defined by what ships, sometimes it's defined by how you handle what doesn't. Today included two canceled orders. One was canceled before shipment, so the inventory goes right back on the shelf waiting for another buyer. The other involved a non functional item that couldn't be completed, so I recorded the inventory cost & moved on. That's part of running a reselling business. The goal isn't to avoid every cancellation or problem item. The goal is to build a business where those situations are expected, accounted for, & don't derail your progress. The focus stays the same: source quality inventory, price it well, list consistently, & let the numbers compound over time. Buy right. List consistently. Stay patient. The singles keep adding up. #Reselling #BuildInPublic

Josh Nichols (@hawkeye_anf) reported@joshuas430 @BosCardHunter I haven’t ever sold anything through eBay so I wouldn’t be knowledgeable enough to speak on it, on the buying end, I’ve been told about undisclosed flaws or problems which I don’t mind because I typically buy rare and unique items so I won’t find another. But it’s nice to know

JasoninIF (@Jasforeld) reportedIs anyone else dealing with @eBay ESUS shipping issues over the last couple of months? I have had multiple purchases stuck in the original drop off locations with no updates to the point that I have to request refunds. Almost like the @USPS is deliberately delaying shipping 1/2
