  @_Mxtty @eBay Ok the app seems to be working well but I can't ship anything with the website being down

  @eBay arrival I needed to issue a refund. Okay, whatever. Ready? Package never arrived. I got an email from Fedex that day that said it had been delivered. I was home and went to the porch after I saw the email within 20 minutes and it was nowhere to be found. Porch, mailbox, yard

  @alanwatts21 @ryancohen I won’t be surprised if we find out that these fraud heavy accounts are pulling in money for the USAID/NGO vacuum that DOGE created. The issue with USPS tracking numbers being fed to the fraudsters to provide a faux proxy delivery within a zip code where the eBay buyer resides is very suspicious. The USPS refuses to give info of point of delivery that proves the delivery was made to a location NOT the buyer’s eBay registered address makes me think USPS is party to the scam.

  That moment on eBay when the item arrives broken and you spend three days waiting for someone to decide whether the refund is justified. Now imagine the same problem inside a $2M licensing agreement negotiated by two AI agents in 0.3 seconds. One agent insists the usage rights expired at midnight UTC. The other argues the contract renewed automatically because both sides made "reasonable efforts" to keep negotiating. The payment is already settled. Who decides which interpretation is right? Right now, almost nobody. Traditional smart contracts are excellent at following rules. They verify signatures, timestamps, and code exactly as written. But "reasonable efforts" is not code. Neither is intent. Neither is context. And that is where real-world disputes actually happen. A friend of mine once lost a freelance payment because an automated escrow enforced the original deadline while completely ignoring the email chain where both sides had already agreed to extend it. The software followed the rules perfectly. It still reached the wrong outcome. That missing layer is exactly why @GenLayer exists. Think of it less like another blockchain and more like an independent panel reviewing the same case from different angles. Multiple validators evaluate the same evidence separately, compare their reasoning, and converge on a shared verdict. If someone consistently makes poor judgments, they lose economic stake. Instead of forcing every agreement into rigid if-this-then-that logic, Intelligent Contracts can understand natural language, use live information, and reason about what actually happened before reaching a decision. As AI agents begin handling an estimated $9 trillion in transactions, disagreements will become just as valuable as the transactions themselves. Moving money is no longer the hard part. Resolving disagreements fairly is. If this future interests you, you can join Community, Builder, or Validator through the GenLayer Portal and start earning GenLayer Points while helping shape the network. What's one real-world dispute you've experienced that software handled correctly on paper, but completely wrong in practice?

  @Ima_Darling2 @OrevaZSN I worked at Goodwill for almost 3 years, this is accurate. It's practically a ******* sweat shop working there and the workers get berated horribly for not working fast enough while the managers sit in their office all day scrolling eBay.

  Unrelated, but pennies made before 1982 were actually made from copper and as such they’re worth more than a normal penny. I used to help my dad sort out rolls of pennies for the copper ones and then he’d sell the copper pennies for more than he paid. You’d think there wouldn’t be much money in that, but you’d be wrong (sort of). Just so happened one of the pictures he listed on eBay had a penny with a mint error ( double die - the penny had been ran through the die more than once and you could see overlap on the lettering). He didn’t know it was valuable, but a random eBay buyer offered him a few hundred bucks just for that one penny. He found a few more mint errors on pennies, but none that were as valuable as the double die.

  I watched the interview 2 times. First I thought that if ebay is taking notes on these Interview, they might fix it themselves without us. Then i reminded myself they’d have to fire themselves. $GME 🎯 $EBAY @amitisinvesting @ryancohen

  @OptaSTATS @Yankees And yet the card market treats him like a role player. For a résumé no one else in history matches, Bellinger trades at just a $17 average across 135 eBay tracked sales in 90 days, with only 2 cards clearing $100. The hobby priced him off the down years, not the trophy case. One of the most decorated players in the game, sitting in the bargain bin.

  A 24-year-old turned $180 of dead office PCs into a private AI lab that never sleeps. The rack sits next to his bedroom window. Blinds half-closed. A Starlink router balanced on top like a trophy. The main node is a Dell OptiPlex 7050. i5-6500T, 4 cores, 24GB of RAM. Companies threw these out by the pallet in 2021. He paid $60 on eBay. There are 3 more underneath. Plus 2 switches, 14 patch cables, and a monitor that only ever shows 1 thing: a terminal. Ubuntu 24.04. Uptime: 3 days, 31 minutes. Memory used: 330MB out of 23,896. That idle number is the clue. The boxes aren't idle. They're waiting. Every night at 2 AM the stack wakes up. One node scrapes. One node runs a local LLM that tags and sorts everything into his knowledge base. One node runs his agents the ones that draft his outreach, monitor 6 Polymarket positions, and ping his phone when a spread moves. By 7 AM the work is done and the fans spin down. His friends pay $200 a month for cloud subscriptions and rate limits. He pays $11 a month in electricity. No API bill. No usage caps. No company reading his prompts. Total build cost: $180 for the compute, $95 for the networking. Less than 1 month of the tools it replaced. The cloud rents you intelligence by the token. He owns his. It cost less than a pair of sneakers.

  @ConceptualJames I could see that rent control was obviosly a terrible policy before I took any economics classes in college. Perhaps it's because I spent my middle school years buying records and memorabilia on eBay, but the laws of supply and demand always seemed obvious to me.

  @eBay I have to say, I'm floored at just how bad you guys have become. Honestly, 20 years on your platform and you can't even send a human to fix your mess? This is why @Walmart and @amazon are eating your lunch. Have fun with your scammers.

  @OffDaHook35 It’s been happening to me. I thought it was my phone. Seems like it’s an eBay app issue. I bet they don’t even know cause the photo is clear when you post it on the listers side.

  Most sports card sellers on eBay are leaving thousands on the table — wrong listings, missed grading opportunities, terrible timing. CardPeak Consulting evaluates collections, optimizes your eBay presence, and guides you to top-market prices. We don't buy your cards.

  @norzemen @KimKatieUSA He did more than lie. I will take any law enforcement we can get these days. Im right there with ya man. Shits getting old when blatant laws being broke and we see zero mug shots. Absolutely pisses me off. I get in trouble if I dont pay taxes on my $601 eBay sales. I wish I knew whats going on but I have my suspicions. I think its all blackmail in the end. Maybe threats to family. Bribes.. all of the above. So like I mentioned,I will take what I can get. 🤙

  I will say this much about the TCG meta eBay charges like around 13% to sell cards on their marketplace. TCGplayer charges a similar amount albeit I think TCGplayer is slightly less. Enabling people to trade TCG cards (or anything) peer to peer on blockchain with significantly lower fees is dope. Of course, you need a trusted custodian like collector crypt to make this happen should traders decide to redeem their NFTs, but it’s neat. Maybe down the road, custodians create a service where you can send in an item, they secure that item in a secure vault, and they send you an NFT that you can trade and redeem whenever…is that a thing yet?

  It’s strange that a base card gets that much. I think once the dust settles it’s gonna be around that price point. I think there is a chance for 2200-2500 sales but seeing those prices I’m gonna step out on a fat tree limb and say PSA subs get flooded. Those blister packs go way up in price. And the market levels off back to sale we see now then bottom out at $1k for the base rookies. The sp ssp numbered stuff will be the biggest jumps and never look back. Base is a bad long term bet. Either way selling now you made a chunk of change. Buy now flip now you will make small amounts comparatively yet you will be in before the top crests. It won’t be a violent slide down it will be gradual stuff sitting on eBay. I don’t disagree about Ohtani. He is once in a lifetime kinda player yet I also believe he is the start of a new kind of player. He is the Jordan of baseball. A game changer. A reason teams build the way they do to play against. He is definitely the Jordan of mlb in our time. Idk about cards because of the base Jordan had never had numbered signed short print print etc. I would not think base Ohtani is base Jordan prices. Idk. Just some things I think about.

  @AgentFitz00 @PSAcard Absolute clown take. PSA makes a lot of mistakes and I prefer grading with an automated AI grader like TAG, but this is a terrible take still. Just go on eBay and pick some random base card and compare a PSA 10 value to a TAG 10 or a SCG 10 of the same card and tell me it doesn’t matter. PSA will sell 10 times faster than a TAG 10.

  @PokeTCGAlerts These prices are terrible. You’re better off buying from the larger sellers on EBay.
