  MG Barbatos straight build with minor painting done. Once the water slide decals come in I will apply them, apply a flat top coat, and work on trying my hand at heavy weathering. You might be asking how I solved the issues with the feet and shoulders? I didn’t. I bought metal parts on eBay to replace the parts that introduce structural weaknesses in the kit. It seemed easier than trying to figure out how to fix something that can’t be fixed. Still working on trying to recreate one of the poses on the side of the box.

  The men's plus-size market is $119B and still underserved by everyone pretending to serve it. Built Stoutstock to fix that. Day one: sourcing flips on Amazon, eBay, Facebook. Day dollar-one: casualwear made for the bigger guy. The full thing is coming.

  @HOFightCards $5,000. Freedom 250 cards eBay are crazy enough as it is. A 1/1 signed McGregor would be an insane auction... even with his terrible performance.

  @OldJimZimmer Daybreak Games owned the Star Wars Galexies MMO until their licensing ran out with Lucas back on 2011. There was an emulator of it that would make 10-30k/mo for a few years after the fact. It could easily be relaunched now. I played Stargate Worlds MMO beta, but that ended up getting cancelled during production. With legalized RMT through ebay and AI, youll see these types of games come back, because they typically cost like $30-$100milly to create. Curt Schilling tried to make one, but funding was a major major issue. Plus he is iliterate, so it didnt quite work out. Golden Age of MMOs will come back, god willing.

  1/ Earlier in his OpenSpec series, Austin Xu (Senior Engineering Manager at eBay) flagged a problem: agents ship changes in seconds, CI feedback shows up 20 minutes later, and by then the agent has moved on to the next task. He named @signadot as a possible fix. Then he actually tested it. His new post covers the full setup: live integration checks running inside the agent's loop, validated against real services, with the full eval log published. Really appreciate him putting in the work to do such a thorough evaluation. Link in the comments 🧵

  Weirdly enough, one of the hardest Thomas characters to find on eBay is Thomas himself, because it's hard to narrow down that you're looking for the guy himself and not just the brand.

  @seyong Imagine if everyone on the planet tried to sell their beanie babies into the available eBay offers at the same time. Understandably, there isn’t enough money to fulfill all those offers. So the fastest to do it will get the full price offers, then the rest will get the 2nd and third rate offers, this can continue until there is no money left. Luckily the bigger the market, the less of a problem this is, you can sell thousand of pokemon cards on eBay and have no effect on the “price” because there are so many bids on eBay. But with something more niche or new like fine art or an up and coming collectible, one sale can change the whole market, for better or worse!

  @ODB123 A few days ago, I told you the big players were going to drive down eBay's price, and you didn't think it was possible—well, look at that: the rating has been downgraded. All it takes is for GME to have $4 billion invested in eBay. It’s an epic battle!

  A $500,000 check written in 2004 turned into more than a billion dollars by 2012. The same man watched his own hedge fund fall from $7 billion to about $350 million. His name is Peter Thiel. He is 58. He co-founded PayPal in 1998 and sold it to eBay in 2002 for $1.5 billion. Two years later he became the first outside investor in Facebook, taking 10.2 percent for half a million dollars. Then Clarium Capital, his global macro fund, peaked above $8 billion in 2008 and posted three straight losing years. Investors who stayed lost 65 percent from the peak. By 2011 the fund held roughly $350 million. So the man teaching you how to think about competition has been on both sides of being wrong in public. The framework fits on a napkin. Perfect competition destroys profit, so build the thing nobody else can offer. Start with a market small enough to dominate, then widen. Look for proprietary technology ten times better than the alternative, network effects, scale economics, and a brand people ask for by name. Value the last mover, not the first. "Competition is for losers." That is the title he put on a Wall Street Journal essay in September 2014, adapted from the book he wrote out of a Stanford class he taught in 2012. A student named Blake Masters posted his notes from that class online for free, and the notes went viral before the book existed. at the board it's simple. one company sold for $1.5 billion, one check compounded two thousand times, one fund down ninety-five percent from peak assets. the same brain produced all three. no magic. concentration into an idea almost nobody shares, held long enough to be measured. here is where it lines up with every founder reading this. you already know your product is a slightly better version of something people already buy. you will still call the crowded market validation, raise on comparables, and describe five competitors as proof of demand in the same deck where you claim to be different. the class notes are free. the essay is free. this talk is free. what nobody can sell you is the willingness to answer his actual question in writing: what important truth do very few people agree with you on. That willingness is the edge, and it costs an honest page, not another pitch deck.

  @TapeTorque That definitely is. I’ve found some as low as 5% (MannKind) and as high as 20% (Better Home and Finance) Question really comes down to what price was RC willing to base the discount off of with the eBay deal looming? $24 post dilution was the low end of my range I thought he’d use

  @nykcsports @CardPurchaser @eBay I've recently had similar problems with "regular" USPS as well. USPS GA packaged sent from Boston MA never scanned in at all, just (thankfully) randomly showed up in Oregon 2 weeks later. My guess is these are all symptoms of the overall competency crisis.

  @xrtzbase GME dropping is actually exceptionally rare around the level it was at. The memecoin is essentially backed by a stablecoin until it's not. Now that 1.4B of bonds are being converted it has a few effects: - there won't be quite as much volatility farming, making GME now act less as a stable asset. - the balance sheet of teh company is better with less debt. Even with the slightly extra dilution, most of the move down was temporary shorting by bond holders to get themselves as good a deal as possible, so it'll bounce back. This also may have been something Cohen had to do to ensure a merged company with eBay is actually investment grade and not overburdened by debt. But more importantly, one thing the coin can do that the shares don't necessarily reflect in the lit market is an onchain supply shock. And if that's part of peoples goal (it'd certainly pump the coin - see what happened on launch day), then your dollars go further to accumulating more shares in the pool. That's actually bullish for the coin. And when the bond holders stop shorting after the vwap window, price will largely bounce back bc the stock was already at its stone cold bottom; Especially if there's a catalyst before the vwap, which could actually give bond holders a *worse deal* than they had previously agreed to, and that would force the price somewhat higher still, if not a tiny short squeeze. (Unlikely that there's a catalyst in the vwap though, but there's always tail risk).

  @ValueAddedRS @tblunt80 Insult to injury is when it is brought to eBays attention on a telephone call, they twisted themselves into a pretzel to NOT have the conversation about their AI missing it when the original seller listed it and then flagging it as counterfeit when I listed it for resale. There is a two tier problem with this really. The AI on eBay is very poor. The eBay response to addressing the poor AI is also very bad. They want to force this into me returning the item as "not described" to push the metric on to the original seller. Going that route will not raise the issue where it squarely belongs for corrective action which is: the eBay AI system is very poor and needs to be improved.

  @seyong Market cap is based on the current marginal price, not the price available for every token. For the baseball card, as an example. The same eBay baseball card whose last sale was $1,000: one buyer may pay $1,000, but if you try selling ten copies, you’ll have to accept the lower offers underneath. Stocks work the same way through an order book. Your market sell fills the highest bid first, then walks down through cheaper bids. In crypto, your $1,000 position may be displayed at a $100K market cap, but selling it moves the price down. so each coin could execute at a lower value. Market cap is a snapshot; the liquidity determines what you can actually cash out. Idk if this was dumbed down enough for some.

  @HoneybadgerNo1 @eBay @depop Just for clarity, this item didn't actually go through an eBay authentication facility before delivery to you, right? I don't see the Authenticity Guarantee symbol & it's below the price threshold. It looks to me like it was just a regular listing, which eBay did not initially flag, allowing you to purchase it - then when you relisted the same item, eBay's AI systems flagged it as counterfeit & took it down. That wouldn't have anything to do with eBay Authentication, but it definitely does still show that eBay's AI sucks.
