  @11_arm_11 @askebay From what I understand eBay will automatically send you the funds after 90 days. They have to hold them in case someone files a claim or issues a charge back during that time.

  TCG Outpost breaks down meeting a buyer who allocated $3,000,000 cash budget strictly for Dodgers Luffy Dons. We go to the hotel. Homie is posted up at the bar with a coffee, a security guard, and a guy with a duffle bag full of cash next to him. He had been there all day. People were coming and going, coming and going, selling him all their cards. When we asked how much he was buying, he said his goal was $3 million dollars allocated just to Dodgers Luffy Dons. By himself. I am looking at this guy like, who are you, bro? He was paying $900 dollars cash a pop, so he is not even trying to lowball. He wants them that badly. They were selling on eBay for 1.1 to 1.2 at that time, and he is offering $900 dollars cash. To me, the price was right for that. We sold half of them basically. We doubled up, recuperated $10.8K, and now the rest we are just sending off to grading and we are just going to let it ride.

  @ValueAddedRS Also, have you actually been paying attention to the interviews? RC likes that Ebay is asset light. He has often talked about sellers being the one's who provide the inventory. Previously on @tbpn , Ryan said that while power packs are lucrative, getting inventory for them has been the issue. $GME doesn't actually need to be the ones buying inventory for PSA graded cards in the future as they have been. They already partner with PSA, so they would just need to link digital powerpacks with the Ebay sellers who want to list their PSA cards as part of power packs if/when that happens. From there, GME weens off the inventory burden. Also, Ryan has touted the creation of a digital collectible marketplace. This would also be asset light for the combined company and I imagine fully absolves gamestop from any type of acquired digital inventory and the focus is on the sellers and being a market maker for those transactions. All this time covering this GME / Ebay saga and you are skeptical on Ryan Cohen being able to pull this off? The guy who puts his shareholders and hard work first over pay packages? @grok please verify and confirm my points in both my posts against the OPs claims.

  Caller: “ I’m 61 with no retirement savings and living in low income housing” Caller: I’m 61, recently divorced, living in subsidized housing, and I have no retirement savings. I’m working 25 hours a week as a cashier and I just don’t know how to get ahead. Dave: This is primarily an income problem. 25 hours a week as a cashier isn’t enough, you need more hours or a different income stream entirely. What’s holding you back? Caller: I have bad knees and a bad back, so anything physical like cleaning or caregiving is off the table. Dave: Then we shift to what you can do. Can you cook? Do you have items around the house you’re not using? Caller: I do have a lot of stuff, yes. Dave: Start selling it on Facebook Marketplace and eBay. I know someone who made $800,000 in a year just reselling items, it’s a real, scalable business if you work it seriously. Caller: I wouldn’t even know where to start. Dave: You start with what’s already in your home, learn the platforms, and build from there. Use your mind, not your back. It’s not too late, Jenny but fear cannot be the thing that stops you. Caller: I needed to hear that. Dave: I’m going to send you Ken Coleman’s book, The Proximity Principle, to help you think through your next career move. Read it and take action. Caller: Thank you, Dave.

  Bill Gates daughter runs a shopping app that secretly took credit for sales it never made. Here's what happened: When you buy something online after clicking a link from a website or app, that website or app gets a small cut of the sale from the store, as a thank you for sending you there. It only gets that money if it actually sent you there. Phia is a shopping app made by Phoebe Gates, daughter of Bill Gates, and her co-founder Sophia Kianni. It tells you where to find the cheapest price and best discount codes. It has 1.2 million downloads in the last year and raised $43.5 million from investors, including Kleiner Perkins, Khosla Ventures, and celebrities like Sydney Sweeney, Khloe Kardashian, and Hailey Bieber. Bloomberg tested the app along with a researcher named Ben Edelman and a rival app called Capital One Shopping. They checked more than 50 shopping websites, including Walmart, Nike, and Zara. Here is what they found. When someone was about to finish buying something, Phia's app secretly opened a hidden browser tab in the background, without the person clicking anything or asking for it. That hidden tab quietly told the store "this sale came from Phia," then closed itself within seconds. Most people never saw it happen. This means Phia could take the money back reward even if a person found the item completely on their own, or even if they clicked a link from a totally different website first. In one test, someone clicked a deal link from a Wirecutter article to buy something on Nordstrom. Phia's hidden tab quietly swapped in its own code and took the reward meant for Wirecutter instead. This trick is called cookie stuffing. It is against the rules of every major store and shopping network involved, including Walmart, eBay, and a platform called Impact(.)com. Impact(.)com has already suspended Phia's account and is now checking Phia's past sales to see how many were affected. Phia says this was a mistake in their code from December, and they fixed it within a day of being told about it. This is not Phia's first problem. Back in November, researchers found an older version of the app was secretly copying entire webpages a person visited, including bank statements and private emails, and sending that data to Phia's servers. The company said it was only trying to figure out which websites were shopping sites, and it has since changed the app to stop doing that. A similar accusation happened to PayPal's Honey app in 2024, and PayPal is still dealing with a lawsuit over it today. Phia is now facing the exact same kind of accusation, in just its first year.

  @tm1515152005 @USPS @eBay not spending all that time for .99 - 2.99 cards. I dont do this to make money, just to offset my spending. But im probably shutting down my ebay store soon. Better off selling on my marketplace. Cheaper prices and fewer scammers taking advantage of the process.

  @TiffanyFong GameStop is buying eBay which no one expected. GameStop could probably make better movies too… Going down to Blockbuster, perusing the shelves, picking a movie, renting it, and buying snacks was still quicker than finding a film on Netflix. Does anyone else miss those days?

  I’m glad I will never own a home. If you break your toilet in a home you own you have to fix it yourself. As a renter when I break the toilet I can text mommy landlord and she will send a big strong man to fix it while I look for cool shirts on eBay

  The mistake: Google Shopping is not research until sellers are filtered and 3 are direct. Amazon, eBay and quote pages fake demand. You need 3 independent stores with live add-to-cart for the same product type. The fix: the 3-direct filter. Count stores, not noise.

  @sudoingX I think it's more helpful to buy, gut out what you don't want, and continue building it. Before the whole AI hardware drama; around 2021, I bought a Supermicro 4U server from surplus on eBay. I got 128 GB DD4 that way for about 1000 USD, but it also included a Dual Xeon board, nice redundant PSUs, and a useful RAID card. Not a perfect machine for AI, but the sum of the parts ended up being a smart purchase.

  After seeing the book Chains of Sea explode in value on sites like eBay because of @LueElizondo, it is now starting to go back down in price and there are a good amount of copies available. If you were holding off on buying one when they were all around $80 it looks like there are now copies available for $30 or less.

  Retailers are drowning in competitor pricing data but never have time to make sense of it. Built IntelliBrief to fix that. It monitors competitors across Amazon, eBay, and Google Shopping, alerts you to price changes, and delivers weekly briefs that tell you what actually

  @JylesCards And this is why eBay’s 13% isn’t completely terrible. Yeah 0% sounds way better through X, Reddit, Facebook Marketplace etc. until you get ripped off, then the 13% doesn’t sound so bad.

  Pokemon create shell companies like MJ HOLDINGS and sell things near MSRP on TCG player + eBay to keep prices down. When something goes too high, drop 1000 ETBs, Market dips. Since, you know anyone can manipulate TCGplayer. Manipulate it for good baby.

  My full collection of 1st Edition Base Set Pokemon Cards is going on sale on @eBay in under 24 hours. The auction will last 10 days. I wanted to pass these cards down to a family member, but due to personal reasons, I have decided to sell them. Each of the 102 cards I bought for $5-$2000+ has done a 5-7x since since when I bought them in 2020-2021. Considering that Bitcoin is now back at its 2021 price, I make out pretty well by selling these cards now and buying more bitcoin. In terms of passing something down, the fruits of these extra sats will yield a lot more than these cards can, so I feel that at this point, it's justified.
