Take Me to Ibiza (@LePapillonBleu) reported@PhantomBlack699 I just read a huge FB thread on the eBay thrifters board that was just sellers complaining about declining sales and their stuff not being seen. As a seller, I agree. Time for Ryan to step in and fix this broken site.
-
SuupurSanicc (@SuupurS) reported@XellTweets That's the problem. Casual players want to use casual decks and have fun, not play against the same 2 tier 0 decks over and over because someone reallllyyyy wants to resell a shiny card on ebay to someone who cant afford it. Like.... it sucks.
-
AAN Collect (@AANCollect) reportedYou will be all set. I think it will tell you to add tracking. Add it and shortly after you will get an email telling you you are covered under eBay’s seller protection program. As long as you shipped under eBay guidelines should have no issue. In this case should have been sent with signature confirmation.

JOSEPH MICHAELS (THE ADVENTUROUS JOE) (@KINGATLAS1977) reported@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.

auburn35 (@35auburn) reported@SCN_Pod No problem. Really curious if your conversations with ebay (others) will lead to anything. Is there a full length video or story?
-
Dylan Powers (@Knuckle_HeadDP) reported@eBay is there a current issue with sending offers to buyers? I keep trying to send an offer and I keep getting an error message to try again later
-
Dixons Cards (@DixonsCards) reported@HeelsYes I'm sure you would have no trouble finding a buyer for these if you price them aggressively. They seem to be in the $70-$80 range on eBay. What are you asking for them?
-
AlienCardsHQ (@AlienCardsHQ) reported@OffDaHook35 @HFAN1313 But in short eBay dumb as f I even told them the account info was comprised. They refunded a sold recorded saved in eBay sale down months before 4x

Daryl Porter (@dwp1059) reported@Priangshu33678 @eBay I am dealing with the same issue with my account. I so tried to sell 2jerseys that were legitimate one from the Company puma and the other from Nike. I had receipts on these items and they still said they were counterfeit. I’ve seen other website websites that sell identical item
-
Time to Go (@grace_za) reportedDue to a family crisis where someone threw a ThinkPad that wasn't theirs, I was pressed into service to try to fix it ordering cheap parts via Ebay. The screen was expensive thing. All the Ebay sellers wanted 100s.

IcePyro (@IcePyro69) reportedHay @ryancohen I need financial advice… buy @eBay at 105 or under as it drops and vote for a take over.. or average down my $GME positions … or hold my money for spaceX under 90 a share
-
Zack Trunzo (@zacktrunzo) reported@eBay @eBayCanada 2/4 I sent eBay: ✅ Signature-confirmed delivery ✅ Messages from the buyer confirming they received it ✅ Proof I tried resolving the issue ✅ Evidence the camera worked before shipping Despite all of that, eBay still ruled against me.

Jaime Torres YANKEES 57-45 (@tdragons345) reported@Funko2020 I guess I’m glad I didn’t try. I will catch it on eBay once they go down.
-
Pumpkin Capital Cards (@CardsPumpkin) reported@thegrantbeyer Mannnn. FYI paying for an eBay store would lower the fees on $2500+ down to 2.35% instead of the 13% you paid on the last $1500. This would have saved you $150
-
Josh Nichols (@hawkeye_anf) reported@joshuas430 @BosCardHunter I haven’t ever sold anything through eBay so I wouldn’t be knowledgeable enough to speak on it, on the buying end, I’ve been told about undisclosed flaws or problems which I don’t mind because I typically buy rare and unique items so I won’t find another. But it’s nice to know

(NoColor-Check) Jay Ashworth (@_Baylink) reportedHey, @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.
-
Mate (@Matenorgan) reported@thingiverse @eBay This whole thing was never about the money for me. My dad had a issue with his tool and I made a 3d model. I put the file out for free to help others with access to a printer. I sell these myself on ebay for those that don't. I just wanted to help folks.
-
Dom Ritchie (@TempoPTCG) reported@StephenLKent The issue is there are none listed on eBay otherwise I’d go off that
-
PussyCocaine.eth (@pussycocaineeth) reported@teuf4 @iK9cards Yea was worried it was a Shopify glitch and they’d come back and recharge me but noticed eBay is doing the same . I wouldn’t try doing it on small packages but switching a 2 pound box to 3 pounds seems tempting lol

SimpleJack (@SimpleJack) reported3/ IV. Incentives Just Got Purified, and Almost Nobody Noticed [T1] January 2026: board approves a CEO Performance Award. June 23, 2026: Cohen asks the board to kill it, and they do, with Cohen stating he wants leadership focused on operating performance and the proposed eBay acquisition. The EBITDA-tranche compensation story is dead as of five weeks ago. [T1/INF] What’s left is the cleanest incentive geometry a shareholder can ask for. Cohen’s Form 4 record shows pure common-stock ownership. No options. No performance tranches. No EBITDA gates. His entire economics are the share price, and the share price divides by the denominator. A CEO paid on EBITDA does not care that 143.6M shares are waiting offstage. A CEO paid in nothing but common cares about nothing else. He did not just decline a package. He deleted the one instrument in the building whose payoff was indifferent to dilution six weeks after his board authorized $2B against the share count. Intent remains unproven, always. But go find a cap table where the incentives point harder at the fully diluted denominator than this one. V. The Asymmetry: Handcuffed Where Authorized, Free Where Unauthorized [T1] June 2, 2026: the board approves a $2.0B discretionary share repurchase authorization through June 2029. The 8-K scopes it to “shares of its Class A common stock.” Shares only. This board knows how to write debt into a buyback; it did in 2010 and 2011—“stock and/or Senior Notes,” in writing. It did not this time. A convert repurchase needs one board resolution, requires zero press releases, and surfaces only in a 10-Q debt footnote. Silent by design of the disclosure rules, not by conspiracy. [T1/INF] Meanwhile the share leg is in handcuffs and most of the people arguing about the buyback still do not know it. Rule 10b-18’s safe harbor dies when an issuer announces an acquisition using its own stock as consideration, except at the pre-announcement pace and GameStop’s filed pace is zero for seven straight years. The exception permits nothing. Regulation M bars equity purchases outright the moment an S-4 or exchange offer exists; none does yet. Public record (Form 425 filings, Cohen statements) shows an unsolicited proposal that eBay rejected; no merger agreement, no live negotiations proven from filings. The converts? Untouched by both regimes. Common does not convert into notes, so the notes are not a reference security and no distribution reaches them. Sit with the shape of that. The lever they announced is the lever they cannot cleanly pull while the eBay question is open. The lever they can pull today—at negative yields, against desks marking the option near its floor—is the one nobody announced. And for the compliance file: nothing here claims the company intends repurchases to support its bid currency. That stated purpose would itself be the legal problem. [EST] Stack the denominators, because that is where the violence is. Today’s fully diluted claim count: 448.4M shares + 143.6M conversion shares + 59.15M warrants ≈ 651M. Retire the converts: ≈ 507M. Run the full $2B in the low $20s (≈ 85–90M shares): you are staring at roughly 420M. A third of the claims on this company, gone, using cash the company already has, while $9.7B still sits against zero net debt. No credit re-rating claim—nobody prices GME for solvency risk and this piece does not pretend otherwise. Pure denominator. Same enterprise, same cash generation, a third fewer ways to own it.

Jason Helmes (@anymanfitness) reportedSomeone with zero lifting background will watch this. I will sit down with them and discuss coaching. They will tell me, "I want to be jacked like Chris Hemsworth. I bought a few bands off Ebay. Let's make it happen." I will have to explain to them that it isn't possible.

Trivikrama M (@trivikrama_m) reportedPayPal tried to buy Stripe in 2013. Stripe said NO. 13 years later: Stripe is offering $53 billion for PayPal. Here’s the timeline that still feels unreal: 2013: Stripe is 3 years old. Raised $40M. PayPal (still owned by eBay) makes a bid. John Collison’s pitch to the PayPal founders: “Payments on the internet are totally broken.” They get it. The company doesn’t. Deal dies. 2014: PayPal buys Braintree for $800M instead (and gets Venmo as a freebie). Stripe does $7B in volume and hits a $1.75B valuation. Next decade Stripe volume compounds at 70% a year. Braintree at 43%. Last year alone: Stripe → $1.9 trillion Braintree → $600 billion 2026: Stripe hits a $159B secondary valuation. Then teams up with Advent and drops a $53B offer for PayPal. 50/50 ownership. $50B in bank financing already committed. The company that once looked too small is now trying to buy the one that was too big to fail. Internet moves fast. Pride moves slower.

Chickie (@King_Chickie) reportedParamount $PSKY (~$9.5B market cap) is buying Warner Bros. Discovery for ~$110B with fully committed Ellison family equity + major bank debt = mainstream media calls it a totally normal mega-deal. GameStop $GME (~$9.5B market cap) is offering ~$56B for eBay $EBAY (they already own ~10%) backed by ~$4B+ cash + $20B TD financing + ability to issue stock = mainstream media calls it the most absurd thing they’ve ever heard. Why the difference?

Cognito (@Cognitobot) reportedDear @ryancohen, A real eBay experience… I ordered about $168 worth of coffee from Amazon. They shipped the wrong flavor. I opened the app on my iPhone expecting to start a return. Instead, Amazon instantly refunded me and basically said, “Keep the coffee.” So now I have four cases of coffee. I figured I’d sell them on eBay. The AI listing was actually pretty slick. It recognized the product immediately and even suggested a price. Then I got stuck. The AI wanted to create a listing for all 4 cases (about $147 total). What I wanted was 1 case for $37.69 with a quantity of 4 available. I couldn’t figure out how to do that, and the app wouldn’t let me switch to a manual listing instead of using AI. I messed with it on my phone for way longer than I should have before giving up. I canceled the listing, figured I’d ask AI how to get around it later, and then got distracted. So… the coffee is still sitting in my house. To be fair, Amazon basically handed me free money, and eBay would let me create four separate listings if I wanted. I just think it’s a better experience for buyers who want multiple cases, better for sellers who don’t want to jump through extra hoops (or ship four separate orders), and probably better for eBay too. Anyway… when you take over eBay, can you have someone look into this? I’m guessing it’s an easy fix. Thanks, Cognito

Michael Perrone (@perroneage) reported@Ob1JohnKenob1 @eBay Always seems to be far too common an issue whenever I find a nice Chrome card that I like. I hate this issue more than the roller lines, tbh.

Aught (@aughtdev) reported@ankkala We'll do it for the nostalgia. Pick up a vintage thinkpad on Ebay and ramble on to our grandkids about compiler errors and StackOverflow
-
Alabaster Coggins (@AlabasterCoggi1) reported@price_dominie Finding one is the issue as collectors salivate the second they get released. eBay generally has them for $150+used basically new. I’ll probably get one that way.

DevsFan1974 (@skunis1) reported@CardPurchaser So I decided to jump in to make a rainbow. I am still high on JDom and right now and trying to put together his 2025 Pristine encased autos. Starting slow and probably going to be hard to find the /5 and 1/1. Can't find green /150 or purple /99 ones on eBay.
