D. (@MysterD) reported@CHRISDBRAND @RussTheOtaku PC's aren't consoles. Even untested component combo's, can cause problems. Steam never curated, TBH - all they do is be Best Buy, Circuit City, CompUSA, EBay, etc and sell you games. They list the systems req's, that's what it works on. 1/?

SecondSonSolutions (@SecondSonInc) reported@40kWorldview I can’t justify the money personally even though I COULD afford it. Priorities. What I do it hunt on eBay for good deals (any) and resell them (fix if needed) and use that money to buy ones I actually want. I’ve accumulated a decent collection for probably close to 0$

AP (@usernameAP4) reported@Roaringalpaca4 @ryancohen I’m down well into the six figures since the Monday after eBay announcement 🤮

TheAmazingDigitalGamer (@Skillful_Gam3s) reported@PeterP_1985 It's very difficult to track a copy down It needs to be sealed to so probably ebay

Shreyash Gupta (@ShreyashGuptas) reported@jameshalldon I am all for it. I checked that every night Eight Sleep uploads over 1GB of data. Thats a lot that it generates so somehow exporting that and saving + doing analysis on it would be pretty cool. But the Whoop project was more successful because you can buy Whoops from Ebay for 50$ and use it with this OSS. Eight Sleep is not that. Someone who actually buys one is heavily invested and paying that annual subscription without any issues.

AJ |#1 CORNELIA STREET FAN| 🐍✒️ (@AJM1997AJM) reported@cassymcollins @Eras_Resale I really hope they can come through for me and help fix this! I even checked eBay as a last resort and they are $150+ 😭 scalpers are insane! It’s been about 35 minutes since they escalated my email, but I don’t want to send another in case it puts me at the bottom of the queue!

Vernaculist (@vernaculist) reported@ValueAddedRS Had a call w/an @ebay. It was a good call. Not a complaint, but an inquiry: Is the problem just that eBay doesn't have the buyer traffic? This went unanswered. Plainly nothing else makes sense. They've an interest in my promoted items selling 🧵👇(7pts)

Manchester Dude (@ManchesterHunk) reported@Tom_Rowsell A household member sold a tech part for a PC on Ebay and the buyer was local. They came to do pay on collection instead of us post it, and a black BMW filled with Africans came round. No reason for all the squad to accompany but it went without issue. Whites drop round alone.

April O’Nellie (@almrckokeshi) reported@Yawaru @Be_like_legend Hey thanks that’s really useful to know! My main problem with eBay is executive dysfunction and AuHD. Sometime I just can’t complete tasks because I’m confused about what order they go in. I’ve sent stuff out late because I’ve lost it in my messy house I can’t keep organised.

valuemarketwatch (@valuemarktwatch) reported$GME just blew past Q1 earnings by 172% and Ryan Cohen is waging a takeover bid for eBay. The community is buzzing that the short squeeze is imminent. Sales jumped 14% to $835.3 million, with collectibles soaring 65%. Ryan Cohen's bold $56 billion offer to buy eBay, while rejected, puts GME on the map for strategic moves. A new $2 billion buyback is also on the table. There's a 32% chance the stock climbs from here, driven by 14.1% short interest and the narrative momentum from Cohen's actions. If buyers step in to bet against the shorts and the collectibles trend continues, prices could get a lift. However, the stock sits below its longer-term average price, a sign that the overall trend is still pointing down. With eBay already saying no to Cohen's offer, and fundamental doubts still present for a retailer, there's a 34% chance the stock could fall further if enthusiasm fades. Keep an eye on any further moves by Ryan Cohen or the collectibles segment's performance in the next report. Follow @valuemarktwatch for more market breakdowns and drop a ticker in the replies for a custom analysis! Odds based on price momentum, valuation signals, and analyst sentiment.

Sasuke (@MangekyoSon) reported@robevoirtcg @kirstyn I wish eBay would ban reselling sealed product. Like only allow card singles to be sold. Would solve a lot of problems

mOE (@m0E_tv) reported@HorsesandStuff1 @RippleCrusader @CardPurchaser You get usually get to keep 110% of the sale price and goldin gets 5% its way better than ebay but the issue is this card maybbe easier to just sell on ebay since more eyeballs

dan-ger pixiewolf (@DPixiewolf) reportedI swear pokemon x target collab ruins online shopping for me because of scalpers. Why can't target control what they can buy like they doing to pokemon cards. I just saw in eBay and doesn't make u wonder that this is all a scam. @Target fix this!!! #madatyou

Daniel Waters (@DanielW40094974) reported@poop_booger I don’t use the eBay envelopes. I ship with my own bubble mailers or if it’s an expensive card I use one of PSA’s boxes. I’ve read about a lot of problems with the eBay envelopes.

IAmNotACat (@IAmNotACat_69) reported@_tradespotting ebay deal doesn't provide any value for GME shareholders based on currently available information for any share price less than $35. Even at that, its a narrow sequence of events that still requires years of aggressively paying down leveraged debt before seeing much ROI.

🇺🇸ComfortablyNumb🇺🇸 (@frostydeath1776) reported@ZOrtiz9919 eBay has refurbished ones in excellent condition with one year warranty. I’ve purchased four so far never a problem. Make sure the vendor has great feedback.

👑Magnifishit🧻 (@TheMagnifishit) reportedA higher probability scenario than most realize called out by 🤖 here. Technically, this path is still taking it to shareholders. If the $EBAY special meeting threshold is voted down to 10% ownership, RC has that ability with a ~$4.3B investment after exercising contracts. Then he could make $EBAY shareholders vote on the current board, or his plan to gain control of the company. RC could have control in ~9 months, operating agreements could be signed between $GME & $EBAY for RC to fully execute his vision and a formal merger could take place much later when RC proves his vision, with GameStop as the parent company. This path also opens up cash for $2B buybacks in attempt to have all $32 strike warrants exercise by end of October, to return $1.9B in cash and help meet some market cap targets in RC’s proposed comp structure. One key thing to note, GME’s eBay ownership needs to stay below 15% to avoid triggering Delaware’s anti-takeover statute (Section 203) which would mean no merger w/o board approval for at least 3 years (different story if RC’s team becomes the board).

GiA Soydan (@GiaSoydan) reportedI want eBay shut down. They are contaminating innocent people. Zombie apocalypse of criminals online. I got an eye infection from the first one, and I'm not even trying the second one. Both packages are sealed for 60 days in the garage. Protocol to have but not use. It's the LAW.

BaseballHistoryNut (@nut_history) reported@Topps Did Hellen Keller post it on eBay, too? Why is it upside down
-
sprucemoose30 (@sprucemoose304) reported@BrandonNie43375 @DeItaone Terrible deal for Ebay shareholders, The GME stock they receive would be worth a couple of dollars/share and an even worse for GME shareholders. Even then the combined entity would have so much debt at unfavorable rates, a turnaround would take very long time.

Dirk Steffen (@teknopunk_com) reported@GFreiNews 600 EUR easily buys a very solid starter kit to produce proper coffee if one is willing to learn to use an espresso machine and is handy in basic maintainance themselves. La Pavoni Professional 300-400,- on eBay Mazzer Super Jolly Dosato 150-250,- on eBay You need to factor in a full seal service kit for the La Pavoni depending on condition (~30 EUR). The coffee you will be making will easily rival any espresso based coffee you will be able to purchase in 98% of Cafés in your German city, even if you use regular 15 EUR/kg super market grade beans. Once you know how to use this gear properly, you want to look into upgrading the grinder to one with an electronic doser and down the road the espresso machine to an E61 group based machine with the features you value or just stick with the old fully manual lever machine.

MagnumPrime (@MagnumPrime) reportedI see people are still make terrible Bowman Baseball listing decisions on eBay. Just take a few minutes to look on eBay sold listings before you list your numbered card at BIN for 80% less than the other sellers FFS.

Matthew Faler (@f2aler) reportedDork alert and contract question: I bought a football card on a non EBay-site for $70.00. It is one I collect and is worth about $125 if I were to sell it on EBay. Well the seller bailed and didn’t send me card. I got my $70 back but I feel my actual damages are $125 cost to replace. Not my problem he accepted my offer.

ctfw529 (@ctfw529) reported@zw8819100 @Lanipator It really is. In both pics I’m holding at about the same height, but even down on like a table, it still does the signal, just a lot bigger and not as sharp. But yeah, this one and the alien Romulus one, which I just ordered off of eBay, are the only ones I’ve ever wanted, lol
