  @papaavalon @RockWallBibles Agree. Dozens of Bibles and the only one I have with the Apocrypha is a glue bound from Baylor 20 years ago and a used paste down I found on eBay. I hope this is normalized in the premium binding space.

  @MKG_Sports The amazing part is ebay siding with the seller. Never happens when I have issues as a seller lol

  @DaddyWarpig 🙄 Selling collectibles - it'll be worth a fortune on eBay when we run out of plastic to melt down

  @autobot117 @eBay I forever remember ebay as the platform u used to get scammed at early 2000s & that won’t ever change, it’s just that simple. Terrible marketplace & no customer satisfaction. Amazon it is as always.

  @C_S_Skeptic A long time ago, you'd go on eBay and pick up up old server hardware for super cheap. It was essentially the same as your home computer. Now, everything is proprietary. The firmware is commercial use only, so even if you can buy it second-hand, it would be completely useless.

  @sham_exe I plan on doing what I did with Tears of the Kingdom and FE Engage and that's get the game by itself on launch and then wait a bit and track down a collectors edition without the game on eBay or something since I'd already have it.

  @BlobWarriorUK 1 - A £1,500 shirt is equivalent to c.90 days premium king size cigarette smoking. 2 - How does anyone know it's genuine? 3 - She might have purchased the shirt for a knock-down price online - e.g. eBay. 4 - Do you have price info for other MPs' clothes? #HannahSpencer #Gucci

  @rozancv shipping is too much and their cards a bit overpriced imo. ive heard stories of people getting their orders cancelled and then relisted on ebay, inaccurate item descriptions. ive heard people have good and terrible experiences with them. it. just depends i guess!

  @Halo Can you put up more CE’s please? and so take down those scalpers from reselling them on @eBay.

  I am genuinely so heart broken. The collectors edition for a game came out and I found out to late. I guessed it would have one a year ago and it did. I missed out. I may give in once I see it pop up on eBay or something and buy it.

  @Marioucche @eBay @Halo You wasted alot of time. Even if they’re taken down, it’s allowed within 30 days of release. They’ll just go back up. Should’ve spent that time writing to Xbox and complaining why they didn’t manufacture enough units to meet demand for one of the biggest IP in gaming history

  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.

  @AKABrewersBeat @MichaelSalfino I sold a 1999 POP 1 Griffey PSA 10 insert /30, it arrived at PSA for eBay authentication process, got signed for, and then it disappeared! Also had a Bird/Magic 6 disappear from a USPS sort facility this year. Major issues w/theft. I trust nothing anymore.

  @BelfastCyclist1 ok here is why if you are buying off ebay, you are buying fake chains, pure and simply that. KMC and Shimano have guides online on how to tell a genuine chain, but thats no use on ebay as they show genuine images. my problems where a fake chain

  IT guy (@ITcomplaintDep) reported 50 minutes ago

  @AKHomeproject @saveusculture I think the worst part about the ordeal is that the state that I bought it in was already after a mechanic looked it over, and "fixed it up". So many of the issues I have corrected on my own have been from the rig just being "too old" for most mechanics to deal with.. Missing parts from the carb "rebuild" like springs, checkballs and weights.. Brake shoes installed incorrectly.. The amount of "performance" increase over the state I bought it in by just getting it back to "stock" has been ridiculous to me. eBay NOS, and pulling parts off rigs at scrapyards gets old fast. I shudder to think about how I'd be dealing if I 'needed' this rig, like to put food on my table.

  @paulg I've spent a heck of a long time looking at the eBay marketplace specifically because they've devolved into utter insanity, and while it IS rather difficult to handle that double exchange issue well, there are cracks in the armor (at least in the case of eBay). Maybe generalized?

  Why do eBay sellers create so many problems? I just won 5 auctions. Combined shipping wasn’t applied automatically in cart. 4 have autopay in 7 days. One has autopay in one hour. Ended within minutes of each other. Why??? I don’t even want to contact you to get the promised price

  @eBay your implementation of AI is going to be a catastrophic failure of the company. I know many stores that are completely shut down due to one or two “violations”. I’ve had my store lose all selling privileges due to issues that have no way of rectifying. MASSIVE PROBLEM!

  Before the package was delivered, eBay refunded the buyer. The iPhone was then successfully delivered, but I never received payment. The buyer has the phone, won’t respond to messages, and eBay’s position is that it’s now my problem to recover the item or payment from the buyer.

  @eBay Removing a LEGIT listing then denying the appeal is INSANE. You guys are TERRIBLE and have people working there who have no idea what they are doing.

  When most of us think GameStop, we think meme stock. Dead brand walking. Did you catch that they just posted the highest quarterly net income in company history? $389.6 million. 🤯 I spent 25 years running PE-backed brand turnarounds. What Ryan Cohen pulled off here is crazy impressive. So I dug into their latest earnings and found many of same plays I've run in nearly every turnaround I've been a part of. Some tips you can apply to your biz: 1. Cut once, cut deep. GameStop slashed SG&A by $800 million since 2021. 47%. Not "tightening our belts." A machete. Companies and culture dies from a thousand cuts because leadership doesn't have the stomach to make the hard call early. Cohen made it. SG&A went from 31% of revenue to 24% in 1 year. 2. Kill your losers. GameStop closed over 1,000 stores in 18 months. Divested Canada entirely. Divesting France. Operators cut the limbs to save the body. Every underperforming store was consuming cash and management attention. Gone. 3. Follow the signal. Collectibles went from 29% of revenue to 42% in one year. Up 65% YoY while hardware and software declined. They found the one category with margin expansion, customer enthusiasm, and growth. Then they poured fuel on it. Too many brands spread resources evenly across every product line. Find what's working. Double down. 4. Build a fortress balance sheet. GameStop is sitting on $9.7 billion in cash and liquid assets. Now, a lot of that came from selling equity during the meme price spike times. You don't have that option. But the principle holds: cash is oxygen. Every turnaround I've ever run started with "how do we get to positive cash flow in 90 days?" You can't make bold moves from a position of weakness. 5. Turn your liabilities into assets. GameStop just submitted a bid to buy eBay. Sounds crazy until you hear the thesis: use 1,600 retail stores as fulfillment, authentication, and live commerce nodes for the world's largest collectibles marketplace. The best turnaround operators don't just cut. They reframe what the company actually is. I'm not saying go buy GameStop stock. I have no idea if it's a good bet or not. My point is whether you're running a $5M brand or a $500M one, thinking like a turnaround operator is helpful not just when things are broken. Always. The best time to fix a company is before it needs fixing.
