  22 Week Recap Days 1-154 Total Sales: $66,679.41 Buy Cost (COG): $11,490.24 eBay Earnings: $38,637.55 Net Profit: $27,147.31 ROI: 236% 720+ items sold. 154 consecutive days documented. Looking back over the last 154 days, I'm reminded that this business isn't built on one great flip. It's built on showing up every day. Every sourcing trip. Every listing. Every order packed. Every customer message answered. Every lesson learned. There have been huge wins. There have been slow days. There have been refunds, cancellations, buying mistakes, & defective returns. That's all part of reselling. The goal has never been perfection. The goal has been continuous improvement. Buy smarter. List consistently. Treat customers well. Repeat. Most of the profit didn't come from one massive sale. It came from hundreds of individual sales across dozens of different categories. Nothing glamorous. Just buying quality inventory at the right price, listing it consistently, and trusting the process. Every listing is another opportunity. Every sourcing trip is another chance to find inventory someone else overlooked. Those small decisions compound over time. Keep sourcing good inventory. Keep buying at the right price. Keep listing every day. The singles keep adding up. Most people overestimate what one day can do and underestimate what 154 days of consistency can do. #Reselling #BuildInPublic

  @anaharaway @Kaaroth @ryancohen They are paid in eBay stock. They sell to make money. eBay is an incredible stock to own and eBay is ran great. GameStop on the other hand is a terrible company and the stock is even worse. You are a moron. This retard will never own eBay.

  Trying to buy secondhand clothes online has gotten kind of crazy lately. Ebay, depop, poshmark, etc. I'm not trying to make offers or talk prices down, I'm literally just trying to buy at the listed price and so far about half of them end up canceled. WTF people.

  @PHicksUSMC uh no, it's exactly how it works. Just look on eBay when these collection boxes launch and all of a sudden there are loose pack lots being listed with the same packs. And prices start coming down of said sets. Guess you have not paid attention to eBay pack lots or pack pricing

  Bill Gates daughter runs a shopping app that secretly took credit for sales it never made. Here's what happened: When you buy something online after clicking a link from a website or app, that website or app gets a small cut of the sale from the store, as a thank you for sending you there. It only gets that money if it actually sent you there. Phia is a shopping app made by Phoebe Gates, daughter of Bill Gates, and her co-founder Sophia Kianni. It tells you where to find the cheapest price and best discount codes. It has 1.2 million downloads in the last year and raised $43.5 million from investors, including Kleiner Perkins, Khosla Ventures, and celebrities like Sydney Sweeney, Khloe Kardashian, and Hailey Bieber. Bloomberg tested the app along with a researcher named Ben Edelman and a rival app called Capital One Shopping. They checked more than 50 shopping websites, including #Walmart, #Nike, and #Zara. Here is what they found. When someone was about to finish buying something, Phia's app secretly opened a hidden browser tab in the background, without the person clicking anything or asking for it. That hidden tab quietly told the store "this sale came from Phia," then closed itself within seconds. Most people never saw it happen. This means Phia could take the money back reward even if a person found the item completely on their own, or even if they clicked a link from a totally different website first. In one test, someone clicked a deal link from a Wirecutter article to buy something on Nordstrom. Phia's hidden tab quietly swapped in its own code and took the reward meant for Wirecutter instead. This trick is called cookie stuffing. It is against the rules of every major store and shopping network involved, including Walmart, eBay, and a platform called Impact(.)com. Impact(.)com has already suspended Phia's account and is now checking Phia's past sales to see how many were affected. Phia says this was a mistake in their code from December, and they fixed it within a day of being told about it. This is not Phia's first problem. Back in November, researchers found an older version of the app was secretly copying entire webpages a person visited, including bank statements and private emails, and sending that data to Phia's servers. The company said it was only trying to figure out which websites were shopping sites, and it has since changed the app to stop doing that. A similar accusation happened to PayPal's Honey app in 2024, and PayPal is still dealing with a lawsuit over it today. Phia is now facing the exact same kind of accusation, in just its first year.

  My Galaxy XR found a new owner! Was quite a lot of people who wanted to get it (more than i thought) But, since i’m usually supa worried if people know what they buy, do they understand possible issues and does it fit them or not - basically gave headset twice to completely random people without any cash to try it out first. Tho! Both appeared to be VRC users, one i met in person at my place (they even had a friend they were talking to about my offer on ebay, who recognized my real name and said hello) and with another one who lives in another city we’ve talked in vrchat first, then i’ve sent them the headset and meow meow, i got some cash few moments ago, they decided to keep it :3. buuuut, all of that money were already invested into another thing, wasn’t keeping it for too long 🥲

  @heydomoshi This resolves a # of issues eBay has had difficulty solving. 1 is Seller or Buyer scams. Local stores provide verification of the item for the buyer and seller. This reduces reversals of transactions and keeps the transaction revenue. 2 Some buyers just walk away w/out buying.

  @LewisHHenley I'll open my Shopify store when I get my tax ID. There's been an issue from a former life. I'm working on another avenue but I'm waiting on a letter from OKTAP. I could try to fly under the radar and just point all my OK customers to the eBay store and sell out of state because I'd be way under the tax nexus, but I don't want to take that chance.

  Retailers lose sales every time a competitor undercuts them and they do not notice. PriceEdge monitors competitor prices across Amazon, eBay, Shopify—and automatically adjusts yours to stay competitive. Stop losing deals to slow manual pricing. Live soon.

  Hey @eBay your customer service is terrible and your online help area lies. Been 3 business days since my seller requested a bogus refund because they did not read the description or look closely at the pictures I sent and yet eBay, according to your customer service says all

  @dirtevader @ValueAddedRS Ebay has had issues w/buyer & seller scams for years. With little information on how to properly resolve in favor of the party being scammed. Ruling against honest sellers, loses sellers money and future listings. Ruling against honest buyers loses future purchases. GME can solve

  @sudoingX I think it's more helpful to buy, gut out what you don't want, and continue building it. Before the whole AI hardware drama; around 2021, I bought a Supermicro 4U server from surplus on eBay. I got 128 GB DD4 that way for about 1000 USD, but it also included a Dual Xeon board, nice redundant PSUs, and a useful RAID card. Not a perfect machine for AI, but the sum of the parts ended up being a smart purchase.

  @chadthereseller I used to sell on ebay and a few other market places. It was actually a decent side hustle for me. My only issue was finding the time to go source for items.

  @nntaleb @stan_yurin HVAC tech said I was asking him to commit a felony to top up my R-22 sub-zero fridge that had stopped cooling. Acted so self righteous. So I bot some off eBay & did it myself. No problems past 5 years. Buying a new fridge would have been worse for environment but that is what these stupid laws produce.

  @realDarkfury31 I could list it on eBay as a "Buy It Now" item; that way, there shouldn't be any problems. I can ship worldwide.If you have Telegram, we can discuss the rest there. You can find me under vulcandramon.

  TCG Outpost breaks down meeting a buyer who allocated $3,000,000 cash budget strictly for Dodgers Luffy Dons. We go to the hotel. Homie is posted up at the bar with a coffee, a security guard, and a guy with a duffle bag full of cash next to him. He had been there all day. People were coming and going, coming and going, selling him all their cards. When we asked how much he was buying, he said his goal was $3 million dollars allocated just to Dodgers Luffy Dons. By himself. I am looking at this guy like, who are you, bro? He was paying $900 dollars cash a pop, so he is not even trying to lowball. He wants them that badly. They were selling on eBay for 1.1 to 1.2 at that time, and he is offering $900 dollars cash. To me, the price was right for that. We sold half of them basically. We doubled up, recuperated $10.8K, and now the rest we are just sending off to grading and we are just going to let it ride.
