    @JamesBarnesMD @CardDawgg @aceofcards89 Is $25 the cheapest pricing out there? I'm kinda curious now looking on ebay how there are listings for some graded cards cheaper than that. is it just people trying to dump cards they don't want or are there volume discounts and such that can get the grading cost down lower?

    @Blackfingers63 I put up a pair of cadillac catera door handles and the drivers side one sold literally in 10 hours for my full asking price, but I've had a full set of lincoln mk7 taillights up without literally a single view because ebay is just broken like that

    @ManFirestorm I did similar a few years ago. I went from 15 long boxes down to about 4. Sold to my LCS at, I’m sure, a significant financial loss to me, if I had the time and energy to properly sell all those books (eBay, whatever). Figured my downsizing would help out their business.

    @VNDKFTW Yeah i do the same. I try to disclose most issues. But if the seal is intact and no dents, i don't disclose, even if the seal is slightly scratched. I sold my slightly dented AH etb for 10% under market on ebay. It is what it is.

    A copy of Seth Klarman's book sells for $1,200 on Amazon and $2,000 on eBay. It has been out of print for over three decades and has reportedly been stolen from most libraries that ever owned it. A full recording of him explaining the exact same philosophy, in his own words, has sat free on YouTube since 2009. As of the last public count, it had roughly 4,400 views. Klarman almost never speaks publicly. He runs The Baupost Group, one of the most respected hedge funds in the world, and has spent decades declining interviews, avoiding cameras, and letting his fund's results speak for him. On March 17, 2009, in the middle of the financial crisis, he made an exception. He dialed into a small value investing class at the Richard Ivey School of Business in Ontario and talked for over an hour. Harvard MBA, 1982, Baker Scholar. Cornell, economics, magna *** laude. Decades running a fund that has reportedly compounded at over 20% annualized. His whole approach comes down to one habit almost nobody actually practices: he asks what he can lose before he asks what he can make. Absolute returns over relative returns. No borrowed money to juice the position. "We never had margin debt in the history of the firm." He sells before the position is perfect, not after, because waiting for the last dollar is how people give the whole trade back. Everyone chasing relative performance against a benchmark is playing a different game than Klarman is. He was never trying to beat the index. He was trying to never lose the client's money in the first place. The book costs $1,200 if you can even find one. The talk that says the same thing has been sitting there, free, for over fifteen years. Nobody hid this. Nobody made you pay for it.

    @BlancoLycan @metacolt1 @CardPurchaser It doesn’t automatically protect them from negative feedback. Someone could say that shipping was slow and I have had that. I ship everything on time or ahead of the ship date. If the delivery carrier accidentally misroutes the package, I can’t really do anything about that as it’s out of my control. But Etsy or even eBay could see that as being valid feedback and easily could refuse to remove it. These platforms don’t always support sellers the way they should.

    Dram McCloudigan (@dreamcloudigan) reported

    If we take the “contamination” premise as given—that any asset GameStop touches becomes permanently suppressed because powerful market participants refuse to let GME succeed—then layering on derivatives, short sales, swaps, or other instruments could look like a self-reinforcing profit loop on paper:GME acquires a stake → the target (EBAY in this case) faces muted buying interest. Price stays below what standalone fundamentals would support. Participants short the target or buy puts, hedge via the GME linkage, and repeat the process on the next acquisition. The overhang and narrative keep the cycle going. That is the logic of the “infinite money glitch” under those assumptions.

    @iwilldestroyuxx @GhostRunnerCard The lack of any update and staying as shipping label printed is absolutely USPS issue. About 5-10% of my shipments never get any update or get one upon delivery. USPS is providing updates to eBay on these orders. It uses a different system than their traditional tracking system but eBay isn't just making **** up.

    @BreakerCulture Both platforms are obviously growing at a crazy pace, and as an eBay seller, eBay Live would actually be my first choice. The problem is the onboarding process feels virtually impossible. It almost feels like eBay doesn’t want new sellers getting onto Live, while Whatnot seems to welcome sellers with open arms. Because of that, I’m personally leaning toward pushing into Whatnot, even though I’d prefer to build on eBay where I already have an established business. I really hope eBay figures out the onboarding side of this. If Live is truly this important to their future, being so selective and difficult to access seems like they’re giving Whatnot a competitive advantage they don’t need to give them.

    This is going to be the biggest hobby news of 2026. I received a card that went through eBay authentication, AND IT ARRIVED WITH A PIECE OF TAPE OVER THE CARD SAVER SO THE CARD DOESN’T SLIDE OUT!!!! They must’ve hired some super smart NASA scientists to finally find a super complicated solution to this issue

    @lachlanscards @eBay @natsturner Im a realist on this stuff if there’s damage a partial refund/refund. If no damage a “sorry that happened” would suffice. The best service eBay could do for anyone is fixing the issue. If I were eBay I’d be billing back PSA for every time this has resulted in a refund

    I've had 5 eBay Auctions in the last week end over $1,000 on the card... and then buyer can't ship to PSA VAULT and eBay Authenticity get's completely skipped. Anyone else having an issue with eBay Authenticity getting bypassed?

    @pipkinpippa Could you look for the part on Ebay or something & then negotiate on the labor cost with the repair guy? I'd wager it's sourcing the part that's the problem...

    Not a board, but I had a fan motor go out on my home’s Trane and two different HVAC companies quoted me between $6k (for repair) and $25k (to replace the system). One of them even diagnosed the whole thing incorrectly, as a board problem. I found a used motor from a similar model on eBay for $200. Had to wire it in a little differently than the first one but the system was still cooling the house perfectly a year later.

    @askebay I have an item (sports card) that went through ebay authentication and now the buyer is try to return it as not as described. I thought the ebay authentication existed precisely to stop these types of returns. Is there someone I can speak to about this issue?

    @seokrirangs StubHub is a marketplace, like eBay for tickets. sellers set every price, not us. some list high and then lower it. that's exactly why prices in that section have already come down since this was posted.

    Previous-day earnings impact $SNDK: Strong quarter, expectations problem Sandisk reported quarterly revenue of $8.97 billion versus approximately $8.48 billion expected, with adjusted EPS of $39.25 versus roughly $34.96 expected. Data-center revenue increased 103% year over year, but its next-quarter revenue outlook fell slightly short of elevated expectations. Shares are trading near $1,216 premarket, down about 10%. Market impact: Strong AI storage demand is intact, but investors are punishing guidance that merely meets expectations after a large stock run. $WDC: Beat, but sharp sell-the-news reaction Western Digital is down approximately 14% to 15% premarket despite an earnings beat and significantly higher profit. The reaction confirms that storage positioning had become crowded and expectations were substantially above published estimates. Read-through: Negative near-term pressure for $MU, $SMH and other memory or storage names. $APP: High-multiple software warning AppLovin dropped roughly 17% to 21% after hours after missing sales expectations and issuing a weaker-than-expected third-quarter outlook. Market impact: Creates sympathy risk for expensive ad-tech, software and momentum-growth names. $EBAY: Better consumer signal eBay raised its full-year outlook after revenue growth, providing a more constructive read on selective online consumer activity. Business and economy Productivity improves, labor-cost pressure cools Second-quarter nonfarm productivity increased at a 1.4% annualized rate, above expectations near 0.6%. Unit labor costs rose just 1.3%, below the roughly 2.1% expected. Market interpretation: This is a favorable mix for corporate margins and inflation. Companies are producing more output without a comparable acceleration in labor costs.

    He's likely bullshitting everyone. If they are serious about eBay, the Depop acquisition would have impacted financing. eBay's debt goes up 1.4B the same amount GME's debt went down from this debt for equity swap. If they can't get 20B from TD, they've got to ask more from sponsors.

    @LuisBizarro I don’t understand how these legacy companies are still alive. Every time I even try to login to eBay, it gives me so much friction where I just give up and close the tab. Every PayPal account I’ve had has been hacked.
