  @TheUltimator5 And the most recent smack down was April 30, one day before the run up into the eBay announcement.

  @eBay The AI isn’t doing its job for your company, just like it’s not working with all others. All it does is fail to find any issues when’s human could easily see the issue. Example: Seller is claiming a 1/1 card is X when it’s really a Y. I report it, and AI finds no issues.

  This was well known and even pushed out by Ebay last year. After 7 days automatic feedback occurs that says "Order completed successfully Tracked and on time". -Shipping must be validated and shipped it on time -Buyer hasn't left any feedback yet -No issues, refunds or any other requests have been made Buyer can leave feedback at anytime within 60 days that will override any automatic feedback left. Unsure why this is being called a "***** little secret"

  Did you know you could report other sellers directly to eBay for this behavior? Open up a ticket and share the screenshots of the messages. Sellers doing this are terrible human beings that don't deserve a platform to sell on.

  @AtRealBen @CamoCat17 You know before they gave a lobotomy to all of the chat bots I was learning all sorts of interesting things about the Talmud After learning about metzitzah bpeh I was specifically interested in what it had to say about blood I had been aware of the issues surrounding animal blood Well, there’s quite a lot more And what I’ve also noticed is since things I thought I had learned Well, now I’m getting different information and would feel very much like lectures designed to discourage certain lines of inquiry But when you add up things like metzitzah , or the protein fake meat is based on (Heme) or those thousands of ‘baseless’ “blood libel” accusations and paintings… Goy Well, it all starts to add up to something that I certainly wish wasn’t true and I certainly don’t think it’s an all of them situation, but I think it would be extremely naïve to pretend that we are not dealing with literal witches and vampires That’s what it is, and they’re using all of the different nation, states and religions and ideologies and schools of thought to essentially hide and perpetuate this I mean it’s evil but it’s also fascinating I’d prefer to be wrong, but I have absolutely no doubt that when it comes to vampires in witches that that’s exactly what this is I remember reading apart from the I call it mud book.. the t mud It literally said that consuming human blood was OK. It just advised to keep it secret for appearances sake. Of course, when I went to fact, check this, it seemed to be gone But I just went ahead and bought myself a full English translation from over 100 years ago on eBay and we’ll just read it myself and take screenshots as needed I still can’t fully believe metzitzah bpeh or even betakhot 6a are real I’m even more surprised if they don’t pretend that those are fake too as it seems like that’s what they’re doing But I don’t know, and I would prefer to be wrong as far as these type of things go And like I said before, I know it’s not an it’s all of them but rather it’s always them situation

  It’s really simple to solve the watch party tkt issue @TheGarden has. All you have to do is make the tkts non-transferable, that way resellers have no incentive to buy them up and resell on craigslist, eBay & Eventbrite etc. I’ll take 6 tkts to game 3 for solving this for you

  Plan B Expat (@planbexpat) reported 24 minutes ago

  The “move abroad and keep your salary zero tax” math always works in the post. It rarely works in real life. The tax saving is real. Your income is the problem, and nobody selling the dream says so. If you’re an employee, your employer is the first wall. Most won’t keep you on payroll where they have no entity. Many enforce a hard 183 day rule. So you get pulled back, let go, or rarely, moved to a contractor. That last one is the only version where the zero even starts to work. “I’ll just find remote work.” Good luck. Everyone wants the same arbitrage, so the seats paying North American rates are brutally competed, and they increasingly want you in a North American timezone anyway. This works for people who own portable income. Software first. Services second. Ecommerce a distant third, since marketplaces such as Etsy, even EBay or sometimes Amazon freeze you the moment they see a foreign IP. One filter for who to trust. The dream sellers on TikTok, Youtube or those convincing you can sell digital products living abroad, earn from the course, not the life. The honest ones can show real income from what they built abroad. If someone only profits from telling you how easy it is, that’s the tell. That’s the only reason the tax line works for some. They obtained legal residency, severed ties with their home country, owned a portable business that worked from anywhere. Residency before you need it. The boring steps are the whole game.

  People are tired of hearing these things, but I must emphasize them always. - I don't know what is going to happen. - I am always wrong. - All models are wrong, but some are useful. - Please make good decisions for you. - I can't know what those decisions are. - GME probably isn't for everybody (it is stressful). - None of this is financial advice ever. - I am desperately trying to learn. - Give generously. - Love always. Especially the haters! If I missed any of the disclaimers, please remind me in the comments! This is the weekly chart which has been extremely helpful for me personally. I only have a few indicators on the chart. #1 The "Cash per Share" floor. For anybody that followed the videos, coming up with this was rather accidental. We noticed the stock continually coming back to a line on the sheet, once per quarter. So this model was developed and refined based on that observation. Of the various models made, it has been the most consistent. I am eager to see the 10Q to update the figure shown but with the company release and ignoring the eBay position, this increases the theoretical floor quite substantially. Note that it is just a theoretical model, but I want to emphasize that I personally do look to periodic returns to this level, thus the very large buying I engaged in the last two weeks sub $22. I plan to personally respect this theory again and people should know that. So I am bullish but limited bullish based on this pattern. But this pattern can certainly break. So trade it at your own risk. *Notice I have some forecasting on the chart for future quarters. This assumes similar profits. If the warrants fall off for any reason the denominator drops and the line moves up 13% or more. #2 Bollinger Bands and Stoch RSI. You can see the periodicity here. Do we repeat the pattern and move up to the top of the bands now with Stoch RSI moving from 30 to 60? We'll see, but again, trade at your own risk. #3 Kitty PMO but on the 1-week with his 55-period SMA. This flipped bullish as he returned in April 2024 and flipped bearish with the second bond offering in June 2025. To flip bullish again what you would want to see is the SMA (green line at the moment) bottom out and then turn upward. Then you'd want to see the PMO (pink line) cross over the signal (blue line) and all 3 move upward. So optimal formation is: PMO over Signal over SMA and all 3 facing up. We literally have the inverse of that right now so maximum bearish. But it is always maximum bearish right before the cross. I don't know if/when a bullish cross on the weekly PMO will happen but that's something I keep watching extremely closely. Because it only happens every few years and when it does, the stock rips violently. I don't want to be selling CCs personally into that event, but people should do whatever they think is best for them. I hope something hear is helpful. In summary, please make good choices for you. I run a fairly complex trade on this thing that tries to respect what I consider the short side's target (cash per share floor) while being bullish in a limited respect short term while very bullish long term. I am constantly evaluating the technicals and fundamentals to see if I need to adjust strategy. And even with all that being said, I am absolutely terrible at forecasting the thing as well as trading the thing. But hopefully folks following along can appreciate that you really don't have to be very good at either to do well here. You do have to be pretty courageous, though, no matter how you approach it. Most importantly, - Christ is King!

  @martymauser I partially blame imax for building so much of their brand on constrained supply. Usually its a minor issue but then you have Nolan or Villeneuve drop a movie and suddenly people are selling tickets for 15x markup on ebay

  Gerard Hughes ( @ghhughes.bsky.social ) (@ghhughes) reported 28 minutes ago

  This is a $475 Mark-10 clamp for force testing machines. One of the threaded brass bushings needed to open and close it is stripped. And one of the snap rings needs to be repositioned. The cost to fix it will be a minimum of $105. And that's just for the evaluation fee - even though it just needs a new bushing, and possibly a new threaded rod. All of the repair fees are based on evaluations and repairs for multi-thousand dollar Force testing machines, not for their fixtures. A machinist could recreate the brass bushing. But that would be custom work that could get expensive quickly, and cost more than the high fees at Mark-10. Sigh... You'd think a simple 5" clamp couldn't cost that much money, and that maybe you could get a cheaper one on ebay. And you can. But cheaper force testing clamps are also significantly cheaper quality, while still being very expensive for what they are. I guess they're just such a niche product that companies can charge that much.

  @eBay Can you please explain why users can no longer send any messages over the app ? It only works on a browser or laptop/pc.. and it is a widespread problem because I'm finding a lot of people with this issue online . Started 3 days ago.. what are you doing to fix it right now?

  @eBay After 5 years, 2,000+ positive reviews, and full compliance with every document and tracking request, an automated bot permanently restricted my account without explanation. Legitimate sellers are being caught in broken Trust & Safety loops.

  @KabutoKing_ @USPS That's likely a packaging and labeling issue. eBay sellers like to use the envelope service, but a padded mailer gets jammed in the sort equipment.

  @robevoirtcg @kirstyn I wish eBay would ban reselling sealed product. Like only allow card singles to be sold. Would solve a lot of problems

  @poop_booger I don’t use the eBay envelopes. I ship with my own bubble mailers or if it’s an expensive card I use one of PSA’s boxes. I’ve read about a lot of problems with the eBay envelopes.

  1) I feel like sales websites like eBay or Amazon could make an easy fix on the road to cleaning up video game sales by implementing a standard tool that encourages sellers to photograph certain things on physical game media for the buyer to see.

  Max (@CardsMax) reported 49 minutes ago

  @blackcatscards It’s not a public marketplace if two people are discussing price negotiation Really the card show/stack sale convention would be to extend it to the person negotiating with them having right of first refusal It isn’t crystalline, because the tech sucks (FL and WN definitely, I think eBay live too) to where payment can still be processed. Best thing you can do is arbitrate as if tech weren’t an issue, and that’d be to extend to intended buyer first

  @Yawaru @Be_like_legend Hey thanks that’s really useful to know! My main problem with eBay is executive dysfunction and AuHD. Sometime I just can’t complete tasks because I’m confused about what order they go in. I’ve sent stuff out late because I’ve lost it in my messy house I can’t keep organised.

  @trigeminy_henry And sadly I work the department that takes calls or chats on this very subject Monday through Friday. It’s a shame and happens frequently, but because our metrics 90% of sales go through without issue eBay just deems it as the price of doing business. They’ll terminate accounts with valid proof within the site, though. Might be a case here at least. We’ll find out!

  @whypickname @foursyYT Lego has no problem forcing people who sell legit goods on eBay or Amazon to pull down their listings or risk being sued yet they say nothing about a retail org they clearly sell to who thinks it's ok not to reimburse an old man for a legit consignment.

  @UnpluggedRetro oof is that CAD? $80 isn’t super terrible if it’s like the crispiest copy ever but if it’s been sitting there a while I’d try talking them down a bit. unfortunately $40-$50 US seems to be the going rate these days. idk if the guy was in a particularly good mood or something but he was nice enough to let me talk him down to $30! always worth politely haggling if you’re comfortable with it. worst case they say no but I’ve had really great luck buying a few games at a time and asking for a 10% discount. that’s still less than whatever eBay fees are these days so most places are happy to make the deal.

  Update: The bundle limited prints are now reduced to $75 - this and other things were marked down on his ebay store - Evan tried to blame his warehouse employee for changing the prices- see trashcast 254 but he has yet to revert the prices it seems 10 hours later!
