    Trophy Watch (@trophy_watch) reported

    @Guitarbizon @JulyMike1959 Just packed up for return. China / eBay. Very pretty but somehow the styrofoam / plastic bag embedded blurry shapes in the clear poly finish that won’t polish out. Maybe with a buffer but not going there. Janky hardware - expected. Nut was just a thin strip of plastic that didn’t fill slot. Body beautiful, chunky neck with really nicely done frets. Good setup. Didn’t bother plugging in, was going to rewire as an Andy Summers mod. If it didn’t have the finish problems I may have taken it on. $220 shipped from China in 3 weeks. Wish Cathy made this…

    Retailers lose sales every time a competitor undercuts them and they do not notice. PriceEdge monitors competitor prices across Amazon, eBay, Shopify—and automatically adjusts yours to stay competitive. Stop losing deals to slow manual pricing. Live soon.

    @dirtevader @ValueAddedRS Ebay has had issues w/buyer & seller scams for years. With little information on how to properly resolve in favor of the party being scammed. Ruling against honest sellers, loses sellers money and future listings. Ruling against honest buyers loses future purchases. GME can solve

    @foxenflask RC added a synergy in GME & Ebay in collectables market where GME can certify & ship from local store. What he didn't mention is how cert and ship solves many scam issues, creates sales where buyers afraid walk away. Introduce a market for traders and another for collectors

    @SHINTAB_44 And he pre-ordered it... Even though the writing was on the wall for a third broken release in a row. *I* noped out and decided to wait at least a full year for DICE to fix the game before I considered getting it second-hand on eBay (and apparently the game is still broken?).

    @Ob1JohnKenob1 @USPS @eBay I've had 1 in almost 300 sales this year alone. Probably 250 of those have been PWE cards. I switched over to shell mailers and card savers and my issues basically went away this year.

    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.

    2. Also won't this cause a whole heap of problems for places like games stop or selling on Ebay ect. You turn your physical disc into a digital copy then go trade in the disc the give you store credit for a disc that won't work or you sell the disc on ebay and it won't work unless you uninstall or whatever you have to do so the disk then works again.

  • mhp_guy
    Chris Koerner (@mhp_guy) reported

    I just interviewed a guy who did $192,500 in one month working 2 to 3 hours a week. 90% net profit margins. This one is getting me all fired up just writing about it! This guy had an HR job he hated. Tried every side hustle in the book. (sound familiar?) eBay Dropshipping Affiliate marketing Facebook ads all of them He finally landed on running an SEO agency for local businesses and started actually making real money. Then a client called him in the middle of the night to complain about his results. The results were stellar by the way... Luke woke up the next morning, fired every single client he had, and walked away from $108,000 in revenue. Then he flipped the whole business inside out. Instead of doing SEO for other people, he built the websites for himself. Ranked them. Owned them. And rented the leads back out to local businesses for a flat monthly fee. His first 6 sites got him right back to $108K a year. Small niches, small cities. Towing in Woodside, Queens. Carpet cleaning in Irving, Texas. Tree service HVAC Pest control Limo He now owns 132 of these sites. I'm so pumped up after this one. In this episode Luke: - Walks through his live playbook for finding a winning niche - Shows the Irving, Texas carpet cleaning site that has paid him $500 a month for basically 7 years straight - Breaks down exactly why he only targets cities of a specific population size - Explains the rev share pitch he gave his biggest clients This one was so good!

    The Sports Card Shop (@_sportscardshop) reported

    Check out this a Ohtani card Gold Storm inserts are supposed to be /25 Ours is not There are 2 others like it listed on eBay and 1 recorded sale on Cardladder PSA won’t grade it, nor will they recognize it as an error card Their response to our research request is below: “The manufacturer clearly missed this card during the QA process, and due to the missing serial number, would not have wanted it to be released to the public with that missing information.  PSA respects the manufacturer's design and QA standards, and are not able to accept this for encapsulation. “ I don’t see how Topps could remake it. They would have to acquire all the unstamped versions and either remake or stamp them all Do they even know how many are out there? In the end, I believe we’re holding a card that’s actually more rare than the actual /25 version It’s for sale. Open to offers.

    So, after removing the cpu and cleaning the base, I have installed the rt3612 we talked about. It took me 3 attempts to get it installed correctly, as it is a DFN package. QFN stands for Quad Flat No Leads it looks like the one attached in the image below. First time i SOLDERED, it did the exact same thing, shorted the 5v rail. But after removing and repasting and soldering again, it got fixed the 2nd time. Mostly, if extra solder blob gets stuck between middle square ground pad, and any pin, it's dead short to ground. We need to avoid that, and i prevented that on the third attempt by using lots of flux. Ok so that's done, moving on, we power up the board. And VOILA great news, the bucks are all working. Rt3612 jumps the cpu vcc to 1.2 and shuts down. 5v buck ramps voltage to around 4.8 and then shuts down. 3.3v also nearly does the same. they are doing this as per the decision from the rt3612. Basically, it is the wife of power section of laptop. It governs and controls the power flow. :P Above voltage confirms that, the PD power controller ic is working, it is negotiating the voltage and taking, the BQ charging controller is switching the main power rail between battery mode qnd charger mode, and the EC is talking with the battery to output voltage and all. Only thing remaining now is to get same CPU die from ebay, and solder it and test. If that works, then i swear I'll jump Also, coming back to the precautionary things: 1. Be very careful when messing with digital chipsets, sensitive ICs, multilayer motherboards. Basically never thermally stress the unwanted parts. 2. Use a kapton tape (orange transparent) which will shield the sensitive components from heat spread during a hot air desoldering session. Read the datasheet of the IC which you are messing with. They would mention soldering parameters. Never exceed the rated conditions by the manufacturer. AT ANY COST. try to minimise your heating session time. The more the heating, more the chances of damage.

    @pablo_ck1 @eBay My MIL sold a camera. It looks like the buyer removed a piece from her camera and replaced it with a broken piece from his camera. He filed a claim that it was broken. We showed pictures of the camera she sent and showed ebay that it was different. They took buyer's side.

    @PixelPrison1987 @noctis_research @eBay And yet you continue to post about it. Who is in the cult? People that actually take the time to dump on the stock. People that spend the time to dump on a stock they don’t own have either serious mental issues, are paid to do it, which likely are, or you’re a bot.
