    @d27milly when I had this occur, I called up ebay and spoke with someone, they looked into and noted my account. Issue was closed a few days later

    @Terrylvmd @johnny_glue @ryancohen Without YQ, the ebay/gme deal would solidify an eternity of sideways and down for shareholders. Why it's being entertained as something bullish on it's own is beyond me.

    @ToddManyNumbers @BlueNinjaXX @preterniadotcom the figure was originally a gold label exclusive to wal-mart stores only. it was a great seller for the retail store cause it had never been released or made before. it now sells on ebay for just about close to $60.00 and under now. the original issue with it, wrong color,ect.

    @ThePPseedsShow I don’t think Black Rock will turn down $125/ share. RC is high key saving all these institutional holders because they’ll loose big betting against BOBBYQ. They need RC to buy eBay.

    A traffic jam that makes you late for a job interview. A cousin’s funeral that forces you to miss a sick bachelorette party. You may have had bad timing cause issues in your life, but it’s likely nothing compared to the bad timing that totally robbed this man of a once-in-a-lifetime experience: This man missed the birth of his daughter because he got an email announcing changes to the terms and conditions in eBay’s user agreement just as his wife went into labor. Ugh, eBay…Why’d you have to do this man like that? When 28-year-old fishing guide Calvin Porter and his wife, 38-year-old fellow fishing guide Anita Porter, got pregnant, Calvin spent the pregnancy anticipating the birth of his first child as if it were Christmas morning. But when Anita’s water broke at 2 a.m. last Thursday, Calvin opened his phone to check the weather, and his heart sank. The message sat at the top of his inbox: There had been an update to eBay’s user agreement, and it was a big one. While much of the text of eBay’s terms and conditions remained the same boilerplate fine print that Calvin had agreed to when he signed up as an eBay user back in 2014 to sell a small collection of seashells he’d found at a garage sale, bullet points in the email outlining the updates showed that the Disclaimer of Warranties and Vehicle Purchases and Sales sections had seen some updates that he’d have to go over before he’d be able to hold his wife’s hand while she gave birth to their precious daughter. “I’ll be there as soon as I can!” Calvin said hurriedly as he kissed his heavily pregnant, contracting wife and shoved her into a cab along with the “go bag” they’d packed three months prior in anticipation of this very event. He rushed back inside, put a pot of coffee on, and fired up his laptop to dive into all the fine print he’d have to agree to before continuing as a responsible eBay user, trying to push away the images of his beautiful wife bringing their daughter into the world all alone. This is definitely the bummer of all bummers. Obviously eBay had no idea they’d be robbing Calvin of such a magical experience when they chose to send out this update at 11:46 p.m. that night, and you can’t expect a corporation not to cover all its legal bases just because people might be having kids. Hopefully Calvin and Anita get pregnant again soon and give birth at a time when Calvin is free from updates to Citi’s Online User Agreement or DraftKings’ Terms of Use so he can finally experience the magic of becoming a father in person. Such a bummer!

    @ValueAddedRS @foxenflask @ryancohen Yeah I ran out of Twitter characters. Fitment not working increases buyer friction so there’s that. Making sellers pay for eBay’s refusal to make Fitment accurate is a blistering sore ebay ignores. Hey, no matter- those returned sales still boost GMV, right?

  • foxenflask
    bad robot ventures (@foxenflask) reported

    Thanks for all the info Liz. $15-20B of the total $80B GMV is absolutely massive. I’m not recommending any major changes or updates that would turn off existing users, but rather slight modernization to boost overall traffic (I mentioned SEO, as a car guy, whenever I search for cars and parts which is quite often lol, I never see eBay links). And also perhaps future new features, like being able to get financing right on the website through an API with a lender partner, etc. That’s funny they tried innovating through acquisition like typical corporate shills and like the rest of their acquisitions, which seems to be the only approach they know for any stagnation or problems. We really need a hardcore operator in there that thinks out of the box and is willing to look at things without spending the most shareholder capital for the least return. eBay needs to stop acting like a venture capital firm, it’s disgusting the amounts they have paid and continue to pay (Depop) for these acquisitions.

    𝑭𝒂𝒌𝒆 𝒗𝒔 𝑶𝒇𝒇𝒊𝒄𝒊𝒂𝒍 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟔 𝑾𝒐𝒓𝒍𝒅 𝑪𝒖𝒑 𝑺𝒍𝒆𝒆𝒗𝒆 𝑩𝒂𝒅𝒈𝒆𝒔 The official FIFA World Cup 2026 sleeve badges, produced exclusively by Avery Dennison, are heavily restricted and only made available for national federations and Adidas. Because these authentic patches are not available to buy separately on the open market, and Adidas has recently experienced severe stock shortages ahead of the tournament, the secondary market has become the default destination for kit enthusiasts. Consequently, counterfeit patches sold on platforms like eBay are currently the only option for many fans looking to customize their bare jerseys, flooding the market with unauthorized replicas. Huge thanks to DimMyEyess for these great vs images. With no official options available for many, the fakes are a convenient alternative, but they come with several noticeable little errors that separate them from the official product. Most prominently, the fake World Cup badges are bigger than the official ones.

    @orcbilly @eBay @CardPurchaser Saw this happening the second I saw they started using clear tape. They should do what I do for PWE/ESE and double penny sleeve the card. One thin upside down and one thick. The card is then trapped.

    @AutoInfatuation The engine is probably a Audi if it’s a 5 pot, I had a S60 years ago with a 5pot factory fitted lpg and that engine covered 380,000 miles without a problem, it was eventually sold on eBay to a guy from Slovakia who came for it and drove it back.

    @ngdevteam Please, you really should expand shipping to Mexico; I always miss out on all your games :( Shipping isn't the issue, but I refuse to buy from scalpers on eBay.

    @PhantomBlack699 I really don't see him renaming eBay to Teddy, I think that'd be a bad move. A really bad move. eBay is a well established brand that people recognise and trust as a marketplace. Sure, it's been badly run as a business, but that's fixable. You don't tear down a name, logo and branding with that kind of recognition, it's valuable. I think eBay stays as is, sitting under the Teddy Holdings umbrella.

    @teddy__com @ryancohen the stock price is manipulated! he knows it would never rise unless he did something extraordinary. Someone said, since eBay is largely held by institutions, they won't short it down! That may be correct

    @askebay along with the shipping refund issue I was told I can’t ship the item at all since I am not a commercial entity yet ebay allowed me to list it. What do I do now since item will go unfulfilled and ebay wants me to pay back part of the refund yet ebay made the mistake here

    @GoBirds32 @CardPurchaser Fee's are the standard 13% on eBay. And there is a huge market for the ESE program. Anything $20 and under goes ESE at 1 oz, if properly packaged they don't have an issue in the sorter. Just upped my ground advantage to $7 because of shipping price increases. Just takes time.

    @ValueAddedRS @foxenflask @ryancohen A slide. Holy Christmas. Why don’t they invest in making ebay motors’ Fitment Program actually differentiate between make/model options instead of assuming an unchanged base model item was universally installed? So many buyer problems and seller headaches resulting.

    @QeWENeQ @PhantomBlack699 I think the local stores will be much better for solving scam issues that eBay has struggled with. Stores work similarly to escrow Potential buyers of specialized transactions worth thousands sometimes are unwilling or cant take the risk. Ex. refurbisher of science equip

    @borgranta @peter_adderton To buy a professional box you are looking at 30 to 40K and you should have professional training on how to use it and a basic understanding of what you are looking at. eBay might have some. Viavi is the most common carriers use. Again unless you have a lot of extra money I would not invest in something like that just to find something that the carriers will find on their own if there is a problem affecting them.

    🧵1/3 I realize today that after all this time, I really knew nothing about synthetic options. Of course it drove me down a rabbit hole as almost everything seems to do. I learned a thing or two and it happened to align with something pretty significant that I’ve been watching for further evidence of. GameStop might be a lot closer to @eBay ownership than we realize. It’s time to play the game! Get another PDF thread. $GME

    Hey, @firefox, @ebay? Arrange a meeting. Pages take tens of seconds to render, and images tens of seconds to load, on your site, with *your* browser. Same machine, Chrome: same URL renders faster than I can measure it. Long time problem, just finally pissed enough to report.
