Danny Bennett (@RealDannyB) reportedLONG READ: Off-brand post, but as a longtime @Nike shareholder, this needs to be said. Nike used to be a company you could invest in and trust to run itself. Now the stock is trading in the high $30’s, a fresh 12-year low, down roughly 76% from its all-time high of $163.63 in November 2021. This didn’t happen overnight. It’s been a slow burn downhill. In 2020, Nike handed the company to John Donahoe, a former eBay and ServiceNow executive with a consulting background and no real history in sneakers or sport. The stock hit its all-time high under him in November 2021, but that wasn’t a product win, it was pandemic tailwinds. Lockdown spending and a digital sales boom carried the whole brand. Donahoe leaned into it, pulling back from wholesale partners like Foot Locker and Amazon to chase direct-to-consumer sales. It worked while the boom lasted. The second it ended, that same move handed Hoka, On, and New Balance the shelf space to take over. He spent the rest of his tenure cutting costs and squeezing profit out of old product instead of investing in anything new. On June 28, 2024, Nike’s stock fell 20% in a single day after weak earnings and guidance for a 10% revenue decline, its worst trading day in 44 years as a public company. It never really recovered. Nike has now erased roughly $200 billion in market value since its 2021 peak, the largest drawdown in the company’s history. Even Jordan Brand, the crown jewel, isn’t safe. Revenue fell from $8.7 billion in 2024 to $7 billion in 2026, two straight years of decline. Hoka went from $153 million to $2.6 billion in sales in eight years. On grew 285% in three years. Nike handed them the shelf space and gave people no reason to buy new. Stop putting bean counters and consultants in charge of a brand people love. Put product people back in charge. Open the SNKRS app right now. The Jordan 4 “Rare Air” Tour Yellow drops September 5th, a 20-year-old colorway from 2006, priced at $220. A shoe that’s already been made once, repackaged, made cheaper than its original release and marked up. Stop chasing what flippers on StockX think a re-release is worth. Price product for the people who actually want to wear it. Every dollar Nike hands to resale culture is a dollar it’s not making itself, and a customer it’s not building loyalty with. Nike has an entire team of engineers dedicated to fighting bots on SNKRS, blocking billions of fake entries every month just to protect launches like this. You wouldn’t need bot protection if you weren’t manufacturing the scarcity yourself, especially when a good chunk of these same releases end up marked down in outlets and clearance stores months later anyway. So what was the artificial scarcity even for? Elliott Hill spent 32 years at Nike, most of it running product, commerce, and marketing, before retiring in 2020. Now he’s back, cleaning up a mess a consultant-era CEO left behind. Even so, JPMorgan just downgraded the stock again this month, warning the pain from the turnaround won’t stabilize until fiscal 2028. Bringing back someone who actually gets the brand is the right move. But, it shouldn’t have taken a 76% collapse to get there.

A.P.O.C (@AOchiawuto) reported@AirtelNigeria @lydiacreatesng Airtel Nigeria, why is your service so poor? I’ve tried registering on eBay, but the verification code never arrives on my Airtel line. Yet, the same code comes through immediately on MTN. What’s wrong with Airtel? Is Nigeria cursed? Please fix your SMS service!

Dorian Muthig (@dorianmuthig) reported@RDKLInc Yeah… they don’t want to give you the working ones anymore, either. It’s starting to get so bad, even the repairable ones are sorted out first, too. Even on eBay, most “defective, for parts, not working”, are listed after repair attempts only, and they try to scam not disclosing

Mojo 🇺🇸 (@QMojo8) reported@OffDaHook35 Sold some slabs at LCS today and narrowed my pc down to a small box. I have a 2000 card lot on eBay to sell the rest. A lot are cards from packs I ripped this year. LCS wouldn’t even look at them

HowlingHemorrhoids (@DeadlessHick) reportedA funny thing about ebay for me is when I get a wild hair up my *** on buying stuff, like a new HDD to replace a dead one in my server, I'll peruse the auctions with current bids ~50% below market value, and then place a max bid of ~80% market value. Often times I do this, I see that someone else has already placed a higher max bid than I'm willing to do. So I feel like a gremlin running around ebay casually helping sellers and causing the other bidders to lose a chance at a true deal. I got a $420 camera lens for $200 doing this method though.

Brandon Coty (@cotycollects) reportedJust bought 180 tested video games across generations for about $2.50-$3 / game. The previous batch was $2/game. Sounds crazy when you can see on eBay some of these only selling for $6-8. But I also see something that made me question this. 52 minutes south of me a video game store exists that sells these games for at least $20+ The same games you’d comp on eBay for much less. Why? Because it’s hard to trust random sellers and in this niche I’ve see people want to buy from people they like, people they trust and people they vibe with. Therefore I’m buying a disc refurbishment machine and offering a “warranty” to my future customers where if a disc stops working, we’ll fix it to the best of our ability. I’m also packaging games with the consoles we test and increasing the prices and will have a branded website off of marketplace platforms. Does this take reselling to the next level? Yes. Will it be difficult for me? No. It’ll actually be quite fun and we’ll act a little bit like game informer for retro games. If it doesn’t workout? Cool. If it does? That’s a fun way to resell.

EverydayReseller (@EverydayResell) reportedDay 208 Total sales: $737.96 eBay earnings: $504.99 Buy cost (COG): $82.27 Net profit: $422.72 ROI: 514% Items sold: Electrical equipment, printer ink, printer parts, automotive transmission parts, marine electronics, & a toilet repair component. Another strong day. $737 in sales & over $422 in net profit from just 7 completed sales. What stands out to me is the variety. Electrical, automotive, marine, printing, plumbing, you don't necessarily need to specialize in one category to build a profitable eBay business. You need to get good at finding the right products at the right price. That's still the biggest lesson I've learned through this journey. A $100 sale isn't nearly as exciting if you paid $90 for it. But when you can consistently find inventory for a fraction of its potential selling price, the numbers start working in your favor. Today's $82.27 in COG turned into $422.72 in profit. That's the game. Buy right. List consistently. Be patient. Keep improving. 208 days down. On to Day 209. 📦💪

Tyler (@SeeifIhaveit) reportedBeware of this eBay seller. Purchased a J Baez lot when he was hot and I had to cancel and refund him because it sold on Mercari probably 15 minutes prior. He purchased it literally as I was taking down the eBay listing. I messaged him and apologized and refunded him immediately. Well… he left negative feedback and said he never got the cards.

alex bud (@alex_budimir) reportedAnyone else notice how much better listing has gotten? I hadn’t listed cards on eBay in a while because of the fees and how long it took. Used to be 3–5 minutes per card. Listed a few Laz and Rainiel cards today and the AI had me down to about a minute each. @CardPurchaser

RD's caRD's (@rdaex1) reportedExplain the issues for us to see if you're trustworthy or not. It's a 10$ card man you're not giving the winner a Tesla. If you don't have the card in hand, just Buy it on eBay and just send it to him... If you won't do something this simple, please stop trying to infiltrate your way into this space.
