    @SmallCapBob2 @ryancohen ebay is so broken im building a search engine on top to find items i actually want and to remove all the scam listings and garbage also this is why a lot of people do not ship internationally, a lot of scammers. items dont go through authentication pass for international and scammers know this so its much easier for them to essentially steal your card or lie

    @EduMock Then they take an enormous cut on selling it through them on EBay and don’t even protect your sale. People can just buy it and never pay for it leaving you to have to relist it when the market for the card has gone down (currently happening to me with my Treekachu)

    @thequannnic I found that first one on eBay for 40$ in a lot of broken or fodder figures, but the spidey was near perfect condition. My first one I had as a kid was eaten by my dog ::(

    @WeriBomb Cheap cotton. I've had the same J Crew T shirts for around a decade with zero issues. Bought a suspiciously cheap Motor head shirt on Ebay and it started tk develop these holes in less than 6 months.

    @foxenflask @m74ft1 I do think they will buy eBay, but it will be after another event. Come with me down a holding company thought experiment. Step 1: gme own a chunk of IEP (just under 5%) Step 2: @_CO_RY_ own a chunk of IEP (just under 5%) Step 3: buy cash settled swaps for >3% (aka, all the rest of the shares as Carl owns 87%) Swaps deliverable in next month or two after compensation award vote. Step 4: accept delivery and file form 4 showing that over 100% of shares are owned. Step 5: watch as IEP share price squeezes. (Let's say $1m per share) gme ownership will make gme price squeeze in tandem to hundreds or thousands per share. Steps 6-9: leverage shares worth trillions for loans to buy eBay. Is this what RK saw *******?

    Card (@Cardhedge) reported

    @ryancohen ebay has become pay-to-play. every listing effectively requires a promoted listings boost just to get visibility, yet there's no transparency proving that ad spend actually drives incremental traffic. on top of industry-high final value fees, smaller sellers without store subscriptions pay even more in insertion and per-transaction costs. consignment houses give you visibility, but most lock you into auction format with no buy it now option. the marketplace is broken by its creators' greed: fees are so high that your spread has to be enormous to clear a profit. you can't buy and sell the same item at the same price without losing a meaningful chunk to fees, shipping, and promo spend. if ebay lowered their fees and increased transparency, it would send the resale economy into a renaissance. categories like sports cards would become dramatically more liquid overnight, it's already an emerging market with a massive following, there's no reason anything needs 13% commission plus extra ad spend on top.

    @RichardC74991 @CARL0STHEGAMER @LewisJFC If you're patient you can get some good deals, especially if you buy bundles. Usual eBay average range from £10-20 though with some of the earlier issues being more expensive.

    @YiedTcg @NightshadeColl The problem with the "buy X, get Y free" is that eBay doesn't always promote those deals.... The algorithm is busted for that coupon for some reason lol. I do the "buy X amount, get Y% off" since it actually shows on every one of my qualified listings lol

    @wrestle_real @Topps One of those is pretty easy to fix. You can get a certified Monte Irvin auto for about $20 right now on ebay. Satchel Paige would be on my list though.

    Remember when sneaker culture was about hunting down rare pairs at local thrift shops or eBay instead of just paying 4x retail on an app? Good times.

    @Seok26_ @SodaSkins CS2 is fine, it'd run at 60FPS 1080p on my phone if they would port it. This is a poor/priorities out of whack problem not an optimization problem when **** GPUs from 5-6 generations ago make the cut. A GTX 1050 will give you ***at least*** 60FPS, that **** is $60 on ebay.

    @DeItaone @ryancohen time to go bro. Btc at ath, eBay at ath, abusing loyal shareholders…only hyping bluffing and issuing on backs of the gullible. We will vote no, and you need to step down. You said it best, gme is a dog under your leadership. Step down.

    @DeItaone what a misleading headline lol. Old news and they are asking to have authorization to issues more shares if needed (half cash, half STOCK means giving $ and issuing new GME shares for eBay shareholders in the merged entity).

    @CollectorCards2 The skeptic in me tells me that this was on purpose and only meant to drive business to your eBay account. Can you provide screenshots of eBay not allowing you to shut it down?

    @Bobsthecardman @GabeyCardStacks I’ve never received a complaint when I use them for eBay standard envelope sales. I had to stop buying from Collx because of shipping issues.

  • Snokerow

    For over three decades, these cards sat at the absolute bottom of the market with almost nobody paying attention to them. Just last year, even cards like the Ivy Pikachu Ken Sugimori error could still be picked up on eBay for under $20. These weren’t “discovered” yesterday — they were simply ignored for 30 years while the hobby focused on easier-to-grade cards and modern PSA 10 chases. The reality is that many early CoroCoro promos and glossy promos are the earliest Pokémon promos ever released and some of the most condition-scarce cards in the hobby. High grades barely exist because these cards were printed cheaply, handled heavily, and almost never survived in clean condition. That condition scarcity is one of the main reasons they stayed overlooked for so long. What people are calling “overhype” today looks more like the market finally correcting three decades of neglect and recognizing the historical significance and true scarcity of these cards.

    @kodyyorton_ @BiggzyRips I’ve sent 20 cards in PWE using eBay shipping (3 oz for $1.32). You need long envelopes. The ones that are the width of a sheet of paper and card savers. Buyers have never had an issue.

    @cdscards eBay suppresses listings that don’t pay the ad fee. The default is 13%, so make sure you adjust it down to 2% (the minimum fee allowed).

    @EliteGolfDad The quick fix is buy last year’s clubs in mint condition from Global Golf on eBay. 100% legit and often 50-25% of the original price.

    @eBay is there any issues currently with the emails for new listings in your saved listings? I have not received my emails the last 2 days. Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

    @BenjaminBreaks @eBay Then you maybe got tape on your card instead. Top loader is the fix.

  • CardGameNomad
    AJ (@CardGameNomad) reported

    @LlcPickaxe A lot of gaming companies already enforce strict distribution policies. Distributors are often required to: • Sell at a % of MSRP • Prevent wholesale accounts from flipping on eBay/Amazon • Follow allocation rules Pokémon could absolutely enforce similar policies if they wanted to. At the end of the day, no smart distributor is turning down the biggest TCG franchise over tighter wholesale terms because the product would still move instantly. None of us know the exact contracts between Pokémon and distributors, but based on how dozens of other companies operate, it’s definitely possible. And honestly, Pokémon’s response seems pretty clear already… they bought Excell to likely control some distribution themselves.
