  Bought a $300 card, comps went up to $350-375 in the 3 weeks since so seller never shipped, so I gave them negative feedback, and now their eBay feedback % is down to 50%. Maybe just ship the item instead of tanking your account over a few bucks?

  @Will__Stern problem is cgc 10’s are ****. i’ve seen so many cards just from ebay that were cgc 10 that you can see visual defects like whitening on corners or slight lifts but it’s still a 10 whilst being off centered etc so idk man.

  @OffgridwithJD @robertobmello @CanonUSA I wish I never gave up the HP LaserJet 4 I got on eBay in 2002. I had to apply a kit to fix the old dried out rubber parts, but that thing was a tank.

  Saved $900 by turning a dead office PC into a full NAS. A custom storage server with real capacity runs well past $1,000. The alternative: a used Dell Optiplex 7020, $50 off eBay. Intel i5-4570, 4 cores, 3.6 GHz, 8 GB DDR3, a 250 W PSU already inside. Storage came next. 2 Seagate Barracuda 1 TB HDDs at $19 each. A 120 GB SSD for $10. Drive cost: $48. Total build: $98. TrueNAS SCALE went on top, free. 2 drives mirrored into 1 pool, 1 TB safe from a single drive failure. A dataset, an SMB share, a login, done. A 4.7 GB file moved at 90 MB per second, full drive speed with none of the subscription fees. Nextcloud replaced the cloud plan. A Java Minecraft server replaced the hosting bill. Plex replaced streaming. $1,000+ buys a box built to do exactly this. $98 buys an office PC nobody wanted. That's $900 saved, and it started as e-waste.

  I was so down bad late last year that I had to sell some of my accessories on EBay.

  I have no problem giving someone a deal on ebay, I have offers on for every listing but when something has consistent sales at 100, they offer 50, I offer 75, they offer 55, I cant help but offer 60 just to see if theyll really let it go over 5 overall $40 under market.

  I get asked a lot how it’s profitable to sell $20 items on eBay when shipping keeps going up. Let me break down a recent flip. Bought two kids Timex watches on Woot August 4th for $5.99 each. Just sold one today for $23. Math Breakdown: Sold: $23 Cost: $6.50 Shipping: $6 Fees: $3 Promo: $1 Profit: $6.50 That’s 100% ROI on a fast-moving item. “But it’s only $6…” So ******** what. Do it over and over again.

  @DomCardboard The fact that it has panini in the title creates an issue. They’re lying to any potential buyer right there and that should be caught by eBay!

  @eBay @depop Why are you ripping people off? This is my Order #: 18-14854-42771. After Ebay takes their 13% they're still $50 short. I only received $133 of the $211 the buyer paid. Your customer service is terrible too.

  @DeanAndrew21454 @ryancohen eBay turned down the offer calling it not credible. My guess is options are printing. GameStop is a fully operational hedge fund you know. And you know who GameStop hired? The goddamn best

  SEND OFFER on @eBay must be the worst and the most useless option. Most sellers only accepting $1 down from original price is a joke...

  @YBMMthoughts @eBay Glad to hear you had a good resolution. I don't even want the damaged card I just want my money back now. Really surprised this wasn't an easy fix.

  @officialhaleyp @VWLarkin @benwegmann And if eBay truly saw things like you / others – they'd fix it. Since it's not being fixed – it must be apart of the design – meaning you're proving exactly what I said. Old generation fixes nothing & only conplains that new generation sucks. No, you ******* suck

  My Little House book series unicorn find arrived today. The box didn’t make it through the journey, so I received it like this. Unfortunately, some of the covers on the discontinued copies now have creases. Will it affect resale? I’m going to find out. I paid $25 for this entire lot and eBay sold comps on the combined sets are over $500. My biggest problem actually isn’t the creased covers. It’s wanting to keep this set because I am a book collector as much as I am a book seller. What would you do?

  cryp (@crypCS) reported 46 minutes ago

  @nonexpertt @realPhantomFuck @benwegmann Of course selling third party will net more than trade in. And yes it is legit, but I've had 2 sales 1 purchase on swappa. The purchas the phone was stuck bootlooping and one of the sales the customer complained about dust around the lens (something easily cleaned with a Qtip and I didn't notice it) which allowed him to send it back and cost me $60 in fees/ship. Meanwhile sold 3,000 items on ebay with only 10 or so issues. I personally would recommend selling on eBay but go where your net is highest.

  @Frogboyx1Gaming Costco has a CyberPowerPC at $999 after a $500 instant rebate. Core Ultra 5 225F, 32GB DDR5, 1TB NVMe, RTX 5060. Rebate expires 08/23/26. The sign lists a lot. It does not list the one number that decides whether this machine is useful to you. It names the GPU model, not its VRAM. That omission is not sneaky, just uninformative, because the plain RTX 5060 ships in exactly one config: 8GB GDDR7, 128-bit bus, 448 GB/s. There is no 12GB or 16GB version to distinguish it from. The 5060 Ti is the card with two flavors. People conflate them constantly. For 1080p gaming, 8GB is fine. For running models locally, 8GB is the entire conversation. What actually fits: 7B to 8B at Q4, roughly 4.5 to 5 GB, sits on the GPU with context to spare 12B to 14B at Q4, roughly 8 to 9 GB, already spilling into system RAM 20B and up, CPU offload, which means slow enough that you stop using it The 32GB of DDR5 does not rescue this. System RAM is the consolation prize, not the pool. Now the comparison most posts skip. A used RTX 3090 runs $850 to $1,100, typically landing near $1,000. That is 24GB of GDDR6X on a 384-bit bus at about 936 GB/s. Token generation is memory bandwidth bound, so you are not only getting 3x the capacity, you are getting roughly 2x the throughput on top of it. But read the units carefully. $999 buys 8GB inside a complete working system. $1,000 buys 24GB and nothing else. That "nothing else" is doing real work. Add a board, CPU, RAM, case, and an 850W supply to feed a 350W card wanting dual 8-pin, and you land at $1,600 to $1,800. The prebuilt's stock PSU almost certainly cannot take a 3090 later either, so treating the Costco box as an upgrade path is wishful. The filter step. Neither option is wrong. They answer different questions. If you want a working machine today and your models are 8B and under, $999 complete is a genuinely strong number. If the goal is 30B class models, you are not buying a computer, you are buying VRAM. And $999 buys 8GB of it welded into a chassis you cannot meaningfully upgrade. Intuition says that's a deal. Logic asks a deal on what, specifically. The spec that constrains your actual use case is the only one worth pricing. One caveat before anyone runs to eBay: most used 3090s mined through 2021 and 2022, and the GDDR6X on the backside runs hot enough to cook its thermal pads. Ask whether they were replaced.

  @dale_wen @jungpionier_ 2021 was the wettest summer in the last 20 years. Mike just told you, that nuclear power plants did not have an issue with low river water levels during the wettest summer in decades. No **** Sherlock, who could have guessed. Gratz to your PhD, did it come from ebay?

  @TonyClimate @eBay I absolutely hate buying from eBay. Slow shipping and customer support. Always pay with PayPal when using eBay and have a credit card as the primary payment method for two layers of protection. Always DYOR on seller. If a price seems too good to be true, it probably is.

  @fishfl772 @eBay This exactly. The seal on the outer card sleeve is intact and the card is hallway out of the penny sleeve inside that with a damaged corner. Should be a simple case. I'm shocked they're giving me so much trouble.
