  @EfrainRodr28781 It’s worth - less. Literally. Whenever he signs an actual real card it goes down in value. You can see them being sold in eBay for less than what that raw card is worth

  @eBay_UK the way your system calculates carriage is costing orders and so costing me and Ebay money. DPD Next Day is next working day. It should say for an order placed now, delivery by Tuesday 16th as it will ship Monday and is a next day service to that postcode used for this illustration. Other courier 3-5 days ordered now will not ship until Monday either so should not offer a delivery option before Thursday 18th. You can see Tuesday 16th is offered. This problem has been raised by me and many other sellers AND buyers based on the support forums. I raised this yet again around 3 weeks ago after a customer advised they had been misled by the delivery forecast generated by Ebay. It should be quite simple to calculate based on time of order, earliest contracted shipping date, + 3-5 days, or 1 day, subject to the service. Please do something about it or I will have to review all my listings and delivery options on Ebay.

  @NICKBLanco_ You buy one off eBay for $150 but you’re better off just buying one for $80 and download the jailbreak from the computer and transfer it on usb stick and it’s jail broken in seconds

  I just spent 1 hour on the phone with eBay. Random restrictions are being placed on my account every 4 to 5 sneaker (sales) transactions. eBay believes it’s a technical issue. I call BS. I am believe I’m flipping too much product too fast & they’re suspecting me of fraud.

  @grannypunchers @autobot117 @eBay The fact that I did the very same thing you did first yet it was a problem when I did it is absolutely hilarious, I didn’t say a cuss word or anything, you brought up Florida in trying to offend or something, I simply did the same, and that’s when it became a problem 💀

  @JulesDProperty That's brilliant, what a patriot! It would be great to see a charity set up, where people could donate/buy old broken things/property and then do them up put them on ebay/auction and donate the profit to Restore? Or other community building Restore ideas? Restore Britain!

  What's the current Return on Equity (ROE) for $GME? ROE measures how efficiently a company generates profit from shareholders' invested capital. It is calculated as ROE = (Net Income / Average Stockholders' Equity) x 100, using the average of beginning and ending stockholders' equity to smooth out mid-period capital changes like share issuances or retained earnings accumulation. For fiscal year 2025, the 52 weeks ended January 31, 2026, GameStop earned a full-year GAAP net income of $418.4M against an average equity base of ~$5,187M, producing a full-year ROE of 8.07%. Breaking it down by quarter: Q1 was dragged to 0.90% by ~$35M in divestiture-related impairment charges, Q2 rebounded sharply to 3.32% on strong SG&A cuts and collectibles mix, Q3 moderated to 1.47% on softer seasonal volume, and Q4 recovered to 2.38% on holiday demand. Throughout the year, the equity base continued to rise, starting FY2025 at $4,929.8M and ending at $5,444.4M, a base that had been massively enlarged by ATM equity raises and convertible notes in prior periods, which actually mechanically suppressed ROE relative to the underlying earnings improvement we saw throughout the past 18-24 months. The most recently reported quarter (Q1 2026), the thirteen weeks ended May 2, 2026, produced record breaking net income of $389.6M and a quarterly ROE of 6.90% on average equity of $5,643.2M. However, $268.4M of that net income was an unrealized gain on eBay derivative options, a non-recurring mark-to-market item. Stripping that out, adjusted net income of ~$179.3M implies a normalized ROE closer to ~3.2%, which is still the strongest adjusted quarter in recent history but a far more grounded read on underlying capital efficiency. Q1 is typically the weakest quarter for GameStop, so the ROE for all of FY2026 will likely be the best we’ve ever had.

  @AshtonEck8 @Lifetime318Avg but then take another $5 off for fees and now you’re down 30% of ask. eBay and in person are definitely their own animal. I’ve definitely let cards go for lower comps just to move them. And tbh, if I ultimately was looking for like $43 sale price, I’m not arguing over $3.

  @BasedAndRight_ @christiandoana You're just full of assumptions aren't you.. No wonder you never made it anywhere in life other than a keyboard warrior.. I sold 5 million on eBay inside of 3 years.. Also you failed to read the "alone" part which meant that was just eBay. I had a retail shop and sold pallets of good over PayPal to others across the country. What you need to do is sit ******** down and stop thinking you know everything dumbass. Also just bc I've been self employed doesn't mean i started selling on eBay in 2005 jackass. Again your assumption are way wrong bud.

  put onto CD, cassette, reel to reel, usb stick etc. Before you weren’t allowed to and you ad would be taken down. Now they employ a shady system of EBay international shipping where if the item is not as described the seller keeps the sale, so no penalty for selling crap,

  @eBay_UK Once again they have allowed fraud. Perhaps eBay should do AML checks and request identification before an account can be opened. I have written to you on here as your customer service just says we ran in to a problem please try again later….. really helpful

  @ricey63 Good for you, but I’m talking about private accounts, not eBay business accounts that are half the problem. And FYI eBay is dead for most people. Feel free to do a search on the subject.

  Resellers manually reformat listings for every platform. That's the problem ListLift solves. AI-generated copy, optimized per platform, character limits enforced. eBay, Poshmark, Mercari, Depop, Facebook Marketplace.

  @AANCollect It's exceptionally confusing when a buyer is awaiting a package and Ebay automatically posts a message saying it was delivered with no issues, particularly as we've all dealt with the "delivered in mailbox" aspect of ESE for a card that was not yet "delivered in mailbox".

• 
  steelcitydw (@steelcitydw) reported 55 minutes ago

  @BigDieselSports @eBay So my takeaway here: Buyer honestly never got the card, but should probably continue to wait because ESE is always slow and often inconsistent. However, accusing them of scamming you because Ebay's system left positive automated feedback, is probably a bridge too far.
