#breakuptheMSM, #IstandwithUSA (@Lexst1) reported@girdley I found the one I wanted on eBay. Took the spec sheet and sent it to three dealers on eBay that were close to the person listing and had all 4 quote me. Took the lowest quote to local dealer and said I will pay transfer fee and shipping. Here is 20K down.

Kojrey (@kojrey_codes) reported@pronounced_kyle @kevverage I if remember right, that was part of the problem. All the media eBay backed were forced to toe the line. This blog/magazine was ostracised by eBay because they asked tough, legitimate questions the seller community had.

John Paterson (@JohnPaterson24) reportedEntrepreneurship is such a wild ride man. I’ll go from feeling like I’m really good at what I do one day to questioning everything I’m doing the next. I say you win or learn a lot, and boy am I doing a lot of learning in this new liquidation world and eating some humble pie. I’m about 10 days in to breaking down pallets and working on my auction wins and don’t have a single sale, literally not one. Now a few caveats there. First, everything is furniture, mostly pricy patio furniture and couches, so it was never going to be a situation where stuff sold super fast given the prices. I’ve been a little surprised at the responses or lack thereof to some of the listings. The more expensive pieces get decent traffic and saves, but not many serious offers. The cheaper stuff gets higher message volume and questions, but no commitments so far. A lot of the patio furniture is still in box and it seems like people want to pay what I did instead of around 50% off, and that’s a tough way for me to make money lol. I’ve been paying a small amount to promote listings but not sure how much it’s helping. I think my lack of Marketplace feedback coupled with pricing is probably holding me back a bit. So I may take some of the stuff I was planning to eBay from my Amazon returns and sell local instead to generate some feedback. So yeah, I went into this thinking I’d be able to turn and burn relatively quickly and I’m finding that’s not the case. It does make me wonder the market for this stuff, I have a ton of liquidation type stores and discount furniture places by me, so it could be a case where someone would rather buy from one of them new. And none of this is to sit here and complain and I hope it doesn’t come off that way. I promised to share the good with the bad and I meant it. It’s possible I’ll need to pivot my inventory a bit, but we’ll see how the next few weeks go. It’s not been long while also feeling like it’s taking forever to get sales. More updates soon!

Cindy (@CindyBurn12) reported@SportsNCrap @CardPurchaser I had an issue with an eBay seller sending a 10 to PSA, which they authenticated, but I got a 9 back of the same card. I saw a guy who sent PSA cards through eBay and they auth. and the boxes arrived to buyers empty. Seems like shady PSA stuff to me.

Oscar Bravo 🇺🇸✡️🇮🇱 (@Oscar_R_Geeho2) reportedHow do I issue a complaint? I ordered a book on @Ebay two weeks ago. I should have received it by now. I've contacted the seller and I'm STILL awaiting a response. Something has gone seriously wrong.

Dinnu daniel (@daniel_adinnu) reportedA GPU repair shop is offering a 22GB VRAM upgrade for the RTX 2080 Ti, doubling its original 11GB. Read that as a clever mod finally reaching the mainstream, and you’re missing that this exact service already existed, already got suspended once because of memory prices, and its return says something specific about what those prices are being weighed against now. The shop, GPU Solutions, based in the UAE, first demonstrated this conversion roughly two years ago, physically desoldering all eleven original 1GB GDDR6 chips and replacing them with 2GB modules, then reflashing a custom VBIOS so the card and Nvidia’s drivers recognize the full 22GB. It’s genuine board-level rework, not a software trick, involving memory strap resistor changes, new thermal pads, and a full stress-test pass before the card ships back. Here’s what makes this return notable rather than routine. The service was suspended in June 2025 after a sharp spike in memory chip prices made the mod financially impractical for the shop to keep offering. That suspension happened before this year’s DRAM crisis, the one already pushing prices up roughly 90% in Q1 2026 alone as AI data centers absorb the bulk of global memory supply. The mod is now back on the market anyway, despite operating in a chip pricing environment that’s measurably worse than the one that shut it down the first time. The reason the math works again isn’t that memory got cheaper. It’s what the finished card is worth. A similarly modified RTX 2080 Ti, sold openly on eBay by a separate Palo Alto shop, lists at $499, undercutting an RTX 4070 Ti Super by roughly $300 while offering more VRAM, specifically pitched at AI workloads like Stable Diffusion and local language models rather than gaming. A shop stopped offering this exact upgrade a year ago because memory got too expensive to justify it. It’s back now anyway, because the AI demand making memory expensive is the same demand making an old card with more of it worth paying for.

Winstoncup Wolf (@Winstoncupwolf) reported@lm_The_R4V3N @sticky4bilicki9 @LsTdiecast Let me break it down.. He has a bunch of **** listed “for his buddy” at “eBay recently sold” prices. He went after Kstate for selling for UNDER recently sold prices. Told people harass some guy on eBay selling a biffle car for eBay prices that HE deemed too high. How can he try to call people out when he’s literally doing the SAME **** on his page? But his defense is “it’s my buddy so it’s ok” Not to mention he’s Mr “everybody preorder so it makes MOQ” yet he didn’t? PLUS, it’s not like “scalpers” lens Kyle was gonna die. They found out same time he did, he has same opportunity to order one. If he just wanted one, you’re gonna tell me he’s missed the MULTIPLE chances everybody else got? It’s not like there was some insider ******* trading knowing Kyle was dying and they snatched everything up. He had til ******* may to preorder it ffs. Cmon man. You gotta be smarter than that. That’s my issue. Don’t throw stones from a glass house, and dude is in a glass house.

Ancalagon's Bane (@aquiloniandream) reportedI still have a libertarian devil on my shoulder whispering in my ear “don’t support anti-market policies” but, when it comes to consumption, I think we’re spent as a civilization. My son’s birthday is this week and every present we bought him was vintage; toys from the 90s movies he loves + an old leap pad off of eBay. Nothing made in the last 20 years. Not a drop of that spending contributed to increasing GDP. Every young person’s apartment is filled with cardboard furniture. Nobody has oak dinner tables or bookshelves inherited from their grandparents anymore. Everything is cheap and flimsy. Every couch and chair is from ikea. The first couch my wife and I had in our apartment from Target didn’t even have cushions; just plastic air bubbles wrapped in fabric. Consumption has to slow down so that our quality of life can increase. We need fewer, better, longer lasting commodities. It’s not like we’re at the bottom of the slide; things will continue to get cheaper, and worse. The only way to stop it is to shock the markets with tariffs and growing American manufacturing (of everything) at alarming rates. We will soon reach a time where being pro-global markets will be in stark contrast with being pro-human dignity, and pro-civilization. I’m close to saying we’re already there.

12Question (@12QuestionU) reported@patricia_kooy @HistorianUSA1 Limited colors, but yeah some help. Don't want them looking like boy shorts with stripe down the side or having to cinch up the waist with the pull string inside the waist band. Best bet is often the thrift store or Ebay. Try Sam's Club and Target too.

LIMITEDISSUE (@limited_issue) reportedNeeded IMO. Card sales over $200 now go through eBay’s Authenticity Guarantee. With the rise in trading card sales, I’d imagine it became more cost-effective for eBay to inspect cards upfront than to deal with customer service issues after the fact. Verifying everything before it reaches the buyer likely saves them time, money, and headaches in the long run.

Daybreaker (@Daybreaker_777) reported@ThelearnerX @Dexerto I just watched a video on it and it was actually the CEO of eBay himself that pulled all the strings!!! Absolutely wild story because he got 7 of his employees arrested while he got a 57 million dollar severance after he stepped down 🫠

HeroAssange (@HeroAssange) reportedRyan Cohen saved Gamestop. The company wouldnt exist anynore without him. Never forget that Also the 2021 squeeze was mainly down to Ryan Cohen locking up 12% of the float and not selling a single share at $400+ dollars. Who else would do that? If the company keeps making $600 a year in profit (or just profit of any kind) the share price has to go up in the long term, even with all the f**kery in the world. It will go up Gamestop owns 10% of Ebay, is up over half a billion on the position, still has $6 billion in cash and the company is making a fortune. Little Gamestop is trying to buy the 4th biggest marketplace IN THE WORLD What more could he have done after taking over a used video game store? Look at the company now. Its flying and the share price will eventually catch up I get the frustration but it isnt Ryan Cohen's fault that Wall Street is one big ponzi scheme where rules are not enforced. Where there are 1000 ways to suppress any stock at anytime If it keeps going on then Ryan Cohen will start buying back GME shares. The lie cannot go on forever

Brandon Toy (@bmtoy79) reported@MikeandLily_UFC @WaxMetrix @eBay I can’t agree with you when they’ve taken so long to solve this problem, and their fix doesn’t even work. eBayers manage to ship millions (?) of cards a year with no issues, but the grading company working for them needs months and months to finally do something, which also sucks

Jonathan McHaney (@IamMcHaney) reported@eBay I’ve been trying to contact customer service, but the “have us call you” option is not working.
