  @drewscardshop @PSAcard @eBay I don’t know what caused the move to card savers, but in my opinion they’re terrible, and I can’t believe some of the cards I see people shipping in them.

  @1Password Hi! This version does indeed make the login show up more reliably in most cases; it does, however, still fail when the username field on a website isn’t selected first. A good example, if you want to reproduce this, is eBay, which asks you to enter your password to sign in, but not always your username.

  @TBon456 Problem is you can’t resell donuts on eBay, and they go stale eventually so there’s a time limit on when you can resell them No point in buying 50 boxes of donuts that will go stale before you can eat them

  @PabloGRadio Exactly that proves your point. Trust me , eBay is very easy to deal with when you're a buyer with a complaint. It's why I drafted that up for you. So you have evidence and just cut down on the hassle. You don't have to use mine but do something similar

  CTK Capital Intelligence (@CTKCapitalIntel) reported 25 minutes ago

  Three of my holdings showed up across a few big name institutions in this quarter's institutional filings. Here's why I own them. Filing season is noise if you read it as a scoreboard. It's useful if you read it as a question: what did people with the most research capacity conclude, and does it match your own work? Three names in my book came up. I owned all three before the filings and I own more conviction in them after. $GOOGL — Alphabet grew revenue 22% year over year last quarter. That's the eleventh consecutive quarter of double-digit growth at a company already measured in trillions. Most mid-caps can't sustain that rate. Alphabet is doing it at a scale where the law of large numbers should have killed it years ago. But the growth rate isn't why I own it.Every other participant in the AI trade is exposed to a link in the chain they don't control. Nvidia's customers can design their own silicon. The model labs rent their compute. The cloud providers buy their chips at someone else's margin. Alphabet is the only company that owns the model, the silicon, the data centers, the distribution and the advertising engine that monetizes all of it. When you own the whole stack, every dollar of AI spending you make stays inside the building. TPUs mean Alphabet isn't paying Nvidia's gross margin to train its own models. That is a structural cost advantage no competitor can replicate without a decade of chip design.Then look at what sits underneath: Search is a near-monopoly on how humans locate information. YouTube is the largest video platform on earth. Android runs most of the phones on the planet. Google Cloud is a genuine top-three hyperscaler. Four entrenched positions, each with enormous switching costs, funding a fifth business in frontier AI research. My own gauge on it reads bullish on earnings, bullish on technicals, bullish on analyst positioning — and negative on financials, driven entirely by the capital expenditure required to build AI infrastructure. That spending is simultaneously the thesis and the risk. I'm treating it as the thesis. $AMZN — the market has it filed under the wrong industryA screening comparison ran this week putting Amazon against its official peer group. The peers: eBay, Macy's, Kohl's, Dillard's, Ollie's Bargain Outlet, Savers Value Village, and a company called Hour Loop. That's the bull case, and it wasn't the point of the article. Amazon is classified as broad line retail. Retail is roughly 74% of revenue, so the label technically fits. But AWS is 17% and advertising is 9% — a quarter of the business comes from the two highest-margin categories in all of technology, and the taxonomy the market screens it through cannot see either one. Run the comparison anyway. Amazon trades at 21.33x earnings against a 32.5x industry average. It generates a 12.61% return on equity against a 6.47% peer average — nearly double. It grew revenue 19.62% against 17.04%, at a base orders of magnitude larger than anything else in the table. Debt-to-equity of 0.4, the strongest balance sheet among its four closest comparables. Cheaper on earnings, twice as profitable, growing faster, less levered. The only line where it screens expensive is price-to-sales — exactly what you'd expect from a company selling cloud infrastructure and advertising rather than clearance inventory. A high price-to-sales ratio against department stores isn't a warning. It's proof the classification is wrong. AWS is running its fastest growth in eighteen quarters. Amazon holds the number one position in domestic e-commerce, top-tier position in cloud, and the third-largest digital advertising business in the world. Three oligopolies inside one ticker, priced like a retailer. It's my worst-performing position, down 4.0% since entry, and it's 14.79% of the book. Being early and being wrong look identical right up until they don't. $BAC — the cheapest funding in American banking. Bank of America is 22.13% of Too Big To Fail and up 25.5% since entry, the best performer in that portfolio. The mechanism is unglamorous and durable. $BAC sits on an enormous, low-cost, sticky retail deposit base — the cheapest funding in the industry. When asset yields rise faster than deposit costs, that spread widens, and it drops straight to the bottom line. There is no product cycle, no execution risk, no competitive response that changes it. You cannot start a competitor to a hundred-year-old deposit franchise. This week they committed $250 billion to a Critical Infrastructure Finance Initiative — capital mobilized over 18 months, through July 4th of next year, timed to the country's 250th anniversary. Three buckets: digital infrastructure covering data centers, computing hardware, chips, telecom and semiconductors; energy and power covering generation, storage and distribution; and core infrastructure covering transportation, grid optimization, water and critical minerals. Read that alongside what the other two announced. JPMorgan launched a $1.5 trillion Security and Resiliency Initiative. Morgan Stanley committed roughly $1.5 trillion over the next decade to technology and infrastructure. Different time horizons, so don't add them into a headline number — add them into a posture. Three of the four largest banks in America independently concluded that financing the physical buildout of American industrial and computing capacity is the highest-return use of their balance sheet this decade.That's the part the rate-cut debate keeps missing. Net interest margin is one engine of three. Investment banking, advisory and capital markets are the other two, and those run on deal volume rather than the policy rate. When a $250 billion infrastructure program needs a home, there are four phone numbers in this country.I didn't buy any of these because someone else did. I bought them because each one sits at an intersection of a structural trend and a market position nobody can take away. The filings are confirmation that the reasoning isn't unusual. They aren't the reason. Educational only. Not financial advice.

  @bscholtz12 Good to hear from you Brandon I still think grading is inconceivably cracked even if shut down. If bankroll is >=$25,000 then I would take cards $750+ and grad with PSA at $80 per and let it compound, especially with it not requiring much time aside from the initial submission Lower; entirely focus on eBay and private sales. Raw cards if you want to make higher per card but slower movers, slabs and quick gains

  Bill Gates’ daughter has been caught up in a major fraud scandal that could land her in federal prison for up to 20 years. Phoebe Gates, the 23-year-old daughter of the world’s most famous billionaire, co-founded a browser extension called Phia that was marketed as a helpful “personal shopping assistant” designed to find better fashion deals for users while earning commissions the legitimate way. Instead, a Bloomberg investigation and internal Slack messages have revealed that the company was allegedly running a classic cookie-stuffing scheme, silently opening background tabs, forcing its own tracking cookies onto users’ browsers, and then claiming commissions on sales it never actually drove through fake or simulated clicks. What makes this especially damaging is that Phoebe was not in the dark about the practice. In a December message to her team she specifically asked them to “confirm auto pop for cookie drop is live on ALL sites… to confirm we are monetizing on all [gross merchandise volume],” while her co-founder continued pushing to keep the system active even after engineers raised compliance concerns. When the feature was finally disabled, Phia’s average daily revenue collapsed from around $80,000 to as low as $10,000–$28,000, and cookie stuffing reportedly accounted for 51% of the sales the company claimed credit for in a single month. Corporate attorney Ariel Givner has warned that this exact conduct is typically treated as federal wire fraud in U.S. courts, carrying a maximum penalty of 20 years in prison along with fines and restitution. There is already clear precedent: an affiliate marketer who ran a similar scheme against eBay (which ironically invested in Phia) was convicted and sent to federal prison. Phoebe has spent years insisting her startup would succeed with “no ties to my privilege or my last name,” yet the internal records now paint a very different picture of a company whose growth appears to have relied heavily on quietly siphoning commissions it did not earn. For a billionaire’s daughter who positioned herself as an independent entrepreneur, this scandal has suddenly become far more than a PR problem. -Kari Bundy - Health Activist 8͏m͏ ·

  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.
