    Me at 20: - £50K/year at Jaguar Land Rover - Acting team leader, dream job by every measure - Watching agency videos in the car park on my lunch break Me at 24: - $100M+ generated on Meta - Scaled a brand in LA from $90K to $2.1M/mo in 7 months - 40+ team members, run from Dubai My first money online was flipping scooter parts on eBay at 13. I opened my own bank account for it. Nobody told me to. I just wanted a bike and needed to make £200 to afford it. Fast forward. Late 2022 I bought an Iman Gadzhi agency course and landed a client in 2 months. They paid £900/month. I was going to say £1,000 and bottled it at the last second. Then 7 months passed and I made £80. In total. I didn't tell my friends what I was doing. I barely even told my family. There was nothing to show anyone, so I just went quiet and kept going. I handed in my notice at JLR in July 2024. Everyone at the factory thought I'd lost it – to them I was walking out of a job people wait 20 years for. So I flew to Bali alone in early 2025. I knew nobody there. I wasn't a huge fan of Bali. Then I moved to Thailand 30 days later. Hit $50K/mo whilst there. Then $100K. Now I'm living in Dubai and the business does more in a month than JLR paid me in four years. The crazy part is I wasn't good at this. I was terrible for a long time. I just kept putting in long hours and watching what happened until some of it started working. And I'm still doing that. The same method, just with bigger numbers. If a 13-year-old selling scooter parts to fund a bike can turn it into this, you're fine. Win each day. That's the whole thing.

    @EmilyDiorXO So stupid. I can get a new head off of ebay for ~$60 but I've literally had this vacuum less than a year. 2-3 times per week usage except the last few months just once per week. The piece itself is not broken I'm seeing but it's breaking the other removable parts (burning them)

    @SonicBlueRanger The prices for them on eBay aren’t terrible in all fairness, given that not all that many copies were published. It just depends if you’re willing to spend anywhere from £30 to nearly £50 a piece for them.

    @AmmarNasirMD I was just checking some out on eBay and they’re reselling for almost $400 but I don’t feel like overpaying for it honestly. I’d rather get some shirts down the line or the black Nba final hat

    Elementa Graphics (@elementaGFX) reported

    I’ve started a daily series on projects that already have something real but the presentation still hasn’t caught up to its potential. Project Breakdown #72 — @ChaseCardApp ChaseCard is a live aggregator. You name the card. Set, language, condition, budget. They watch every marketplace. Beta is open. Alerts are already going out. Umbreon 38% under. Gengar 45% under. That is a real loop. The page does not show the loop. It shows a still of a deal and a link to apply. A collector already hunting grails will get it. A stranger sees another TCG promo card. Two problems. The watch is invisible. The product is not “Umbreon is cheap.” The product is ChaseCard catching it across shops while you sleep. That is motion. A price still is what eBay already posts. Motion is the alert hitting, the listing opening, the card matching the chase. The feed is one template. Photo. Percent. Link. Fine for proof. Weak as a brand. A ChaseCard frame should be the chase itself. Card. Target price. Hit. Same rails every alert. Then the beta link has a face. They already have the deals. The page should look like the watcher, not like the listing. See you on the next one.

    Card Throne (@cardthrone) reported

    I run Card Throne with a handful of Grok Bots. Each one owns a job. They don't all sit in one chat answering random questions. Scout does sourcing. Japanese inventory, carts, what to buy next. Grading plays and margins off my actual fees and costs. It never checks out. I still have to say purchase. Build is engineering. It only works on Card Throne Room, our seller tool. Scan a stack of cards, list to eBay, inventory management. When it's real code, it summons a cloud agent with pstack /poteto-mode. Throne runs the storefronts. Brings me the issues that actually have to move that day. Ledger does the books. Payouts, fees, receipts, the monthly P&L. Sentry monitors for any Card Throne Room bugs and pings Build if something needs fixed. Chief sits on top so I'm not pinging six bots to find out whose job a thing is. I still make the final calls.

    35 T1 box transactions on ebay yesterday. One sale for a raw Miss Fortune as the auction ended at $7k Is this higher or lower than you expected? I think it will settle down significantly as more supply hits the market. By next week we might have 30 auctions going on at once, and inevitably some will fall between the cracks, going for well below the established market.

    @paypal - leaving another message to be lost in wilderness of the internet. Had to do a chargeback for what seems to be a clear item not received issue. Never open these type of cases, but both @eBay and @paypal denied a simple case. Both their customer services are subpar.

    @Oscvr9_ Hello! Best way to price sealed is to refer to eBay last solds for sealed - do not count any unsealed. Often I find issue with sold items under “best offer” and the listed price being the sold price. For this reason I always use 130point to get most accurate prices w/ offers.

    They seem to think they are THE Majima yume or want to come across as such, had an issue with me and my merch collecting, thinking I spend a fortune... if they only look at ebay prices, I can see how they maybe think that. lol But in the end...

    @selStreams @austeregrim @RDKLInc You can't buy CPAPs, for example, on eBay. They are class II medical devices and their requires a doctor's prescription. Some people have tried to get around that by selling a CPAP travel bag for $300, which just so happened to have a CPAP in it. But eBay has cracked down on that, too. Not all medical devices require a prescription, though.

    @cmpayneful @GameStopOnChain Consider this a rabbit hole, but if you choose to go down, will lead to more… like XRP. Surprisingly this stuff connected to Epstein, which is why the DOJ is gonna be important. If I were to guess I think eBay was permitting trafficking kids likewise to JP Morgan

    Day 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. 📦💪

    When selling on eBay if you see a third-party shipping company do you have issues or concern shipping the card? I always seem to have problems with ship my cards.

    @IndefiniteLT @VibesMBSE it was before my time but part of CARTER lore is they took a rogue wave shifting home ports from northeast to Bangor. a water column came down the hatch and the ship's computer was right there they had to get the replacement computer from ebay that was the story anyway

    Not sure who needs to hear this but you can spend $100,000+ a month just using Amazon as your source of inventory. You can do this at 40%+ ROI. You can beat section 3s and account health problems. You can sell your inventory on Amazon, Walmart, eBay, Whatnot, TikTok, or locally. If you’re an Amazon seller you can also get a complete P&L, cash flow analytics, ungating support, reimbursements, product monitoring, replen dashboards, FBM tracking, order tracking, and more. For free, then $3 a day. You can be as weird as me and do it all from your phone if you’d like. We are building the most complete software package publicly available. Taking no profits out. Doubling down on team and partnerships.

    @FinanceLancelot Was on the phone with eBay today, the agent told me with humor he basically does not have to do anything anymore, its all handled with AI Agents that make all the decisions and process the issues, he's literally just there because we want to speak to real people still.

  • KiroIkigai

    The most reliable way to misread an earnings report is to start at the bottom line. $GME just posted preliminary net income up roughly 78% on net sales down roughly 19%. Both numbers are real. Only one of them is about the business. The quarter, company figures: -net sales: $780M to $800M, vs $972.2M a year ago -net income: $290M to $310M, vs $168.6M -operating income: $150M to $170M, vs $66.4M The bridge from falling sales to rising profit is one line. Roughly $238M of gains on an eBay derivative asset and an equity investment, less roughly $75M of digital-asset losses. about $163M of pre-tax marks. For scale: that eBay exposure is carried at about $4.947B. the company books about $790M of sales in a quarter. when the portfolio is that big, the income statement is partly a report on the portfolio. Credit where due: operating income more than doubled. that is a bigger percentage jump than the net income line everyone quotes. smaller, tighter, better-run retailer. real progress. not the headline story. Keep this part: -net income up while revenue is down: find the non-operating line first. it is usually one line, and it is usually named -size the securities book against the operating result. a $5B position swamps a sub-$200M quarter, in both directions -falling sales with improving operating income is a cost story. real, but a different story from the headline I am fully invested, and none of this changes that. guidance direction and price reaction have been disagreeing all earnings season. last Thursday five of seven reporters raised guidance and four of the seven closed lower. reading the price as the verdict on the numbers is the error. The case against: I may be underselling the operating turn, which more than doubled at every point of the guided range. and these are preliminary figures. no call is scheduled, and complete results are due September 8. $GME $EBAY

    Made my first mistake on eBay tn. Listed a card (over $20) with my PWE shipping cost (I set a flat rate of 1.25 for PWE). Shipping is $6, anyway to change/fix this or am I just out the $5. No big deal if so, this is what happens when I list cards extremely tired. @CardPurchaser
