@CardPurchaser #thehobby I need some @eBay help tips with a seller as I keep going down an AI rabbit hole trying to navigate help to get them to step in It was shipped on 10/31 but wasn’t scanned in at the USPS until 11/15 Now he is wanting $50 not to return it once delivered

@MangTheChee I see. It is a very crisp UI and i can tell you put a lot of thought and work into it as a marketing guy, I'm always suspicious of the "product for everyone" target avatar. Paypal got traction through serving ebay power-sellers. Facebook with college students. There's real magic in niching down which I think comes from being able to capitalize on in-niche network effects to dominate with a product that is substantially better than any alternative

@WaxMetrix I'm betting they thought they could get away with pretending they weren't e commerce and they paid for like 100k monthly from the hosting side. They likely had so many calls in the host shut it down, gotta pay rent on the Internet weather it's eBay or someone else. No free rides.

@CardPurchaser @Chop_Life_4theA That’s our biggest problem. We need to as individuals be able to list our cards without eBay fees and even consignment fees on top of that. Simplified website development service like Etsy but for cards.

@MeatballsRedux It's definitely a bad look for whoever built out the site. I have no problems with Rick, so not like I want him to fail, but this move (including the name(s)) seemed like a big risk from the jump. With Fanatics, eBay, Goldin pumping out so much weekly, this wasn't needed.

deep dive into embedded lending consumer embedded lending wins - BillMeLater started 2000, ebay bought for ~$1B in 2008, now paypal credit - only 2 embedded lending companies went public: affirm + afterpay, both consumer - zero embedded SMB lenders have gone public despite bigger market - embedded payments crushed it in SMB, embedded lending didn’t - why? consumer conversion funnel - 10,000 purchasers → 100 loan applications → 50 approvals → 25 conversions - conversion rate only 0.25% but massive ecommerce volume makes it work - purchase completed in same session, huge advantage - affirm $20.2B originations 2023, klarna $98B GMV, afterpay $27.3B - combined ~$150B in 2023, worth $25B+ market cap even post-crash - this is just one product line (closed-end unsecured consumer credit) - add credit cards + auto loans = hundreds of billions more key difference from direct lending - direct lenders (lending club) burn cash on CAC through marketing - embedded lenders partner with merchants, $0 variable CAC - oldest form: getting auto loan at dealership, dealer shows you options SMB embedded lending hasn’t succeeded in a big way - captive lenders bigger than third party (shopify capital, stripe capital, square capital) - few new players: parafin ($94M raised), kanmon ($9.2M), slope ($78M) - pipe hit $2B valuation in 2021, now fraction of peak - no standalone $1B+ embedded SMB lending companies exist SMB product types - merchant cash advance: pay % of future sales until paid - invoice factoring: sell unpaid invoices at discount - loans (secured/unsecured): monthly installments - lines of credit: revolving, working capital - non-bank lenders focus on MCA + factoring - banks focus on loans + LOC issues with SMB origination - toast capital: $1B annualized originations 2024 - square capital: $4.78B loans 2023 - shopify: $719M outstanding receivables end of 2023 - stripe processes $1T payments/year but lending still not massive - total top 3 SMB: ~$6B vs consumer top 3: $150B - 25x difference despite SMB lending market arguably bigger why SMB doesn’t scale - consumers = one market, universal underwriting (credit score + income) - SMBs = many smaller markets, construction ≠ restaurants ≠ ecommerce ≠ accounting - different operational structures, income sources, margins, seasonality - specific tools exist for each vertical (toast for restaurants, stripe for ecommerce) - underwriting for construction doesn’t work for ecommerce - infrastructure doesn’t transfer cross-vertical, natural limiting factor the vertical trap - companies start focused on one vertical to get wedge (necessary) - then expand wedge, move upmarket, add robust functionality - but expanding to other verticals = building new software almost from scratch - lending stays sub-scale if launch vertical isn’t big market - competitive forces prevent building great second product - SMB can only grow as fast as software adoption in that vertical - picking big market more critical for SMB than consumer consumer credit spectrum advantage - each FICO score point = billion dollar market in consumer - sofi not big in subprime, capital one not big in super prime - tricky to move across spectrums but each spectrum huge - SMB doesn’t have this - stuck in verticals the eventual outcome - biggest software companies in any vertical become captive lenders - shopify, stripe, square, toast all followed this path - but still tiny compared to consumer volumes AI as potential unlock - AI can manage complexity of underwriting different business types - business lending has less oversight than consumer - don’t need to explain models to regulators like consumer lending - extensive operational automation needed in business lending - AI could bypass vertical-specific infrastructure problem - build models handling heterogeneous businesses in one platform

@mountaintopcoll @CardPurchaser The prices are inflated. If you see something for sale on eBay, you login to comc and the price is usually much cheaper to buy it direct into your account.

@NoHoldsCards I had the same issue, I shipped it, said wasn’t delivered but last tracked like a week ago in California (used white envelope shipping) guy opened a ticket and eBay refunded him, but didn’t take the funds from me as I shipped properly. So might not need to refund eBay will.

@gurucollects I’ve noticed final values on all my eBay auctions are down 6-11% based on category (raw vs graded) but I don’t see a massive crash coming. I can tell people are stretched though. I’m holding off on my next grading submission until after the holidays because stuff is just moving slower.

@Number10press great to see resale ticket clamp down.Pity this didn't cover the likes of @Waterstones who knowingly sell a select /chosen few 'real fans' rare signed books by authors like @jk_rowling which find their way onto ebay for way inflated prices . Book world equivalent.

I tuned into an eBay live auction, and I see an issue compared to WN. In the chat feature, you cannot tag anyone, and you can’t DM someone. A user was asking about a Pokemon card, and the seller showed it front to back for a decent amount of time /2

Friendly reminder: @eBay allows fake shippers like Aqualine and will not take down/restrict offending sellers. Not sure how they treat sellers but @Amazon does not allow scam carriers. 🤨

@darrenrovell I think it’s no glitch and the fact that there is little traffic. I have co-signed about 3k cards last year with Probstein. 200 current auctions and maybe 8-10 had bids, all minimum. On eBay, they all would have had bids.
