    @sax_n_violets Some repair shops exist that could fix it. You could DIY it and buy the parts, learning to solder is tricky. You could ship it out and have someone fix it for you OR you could just buy a refurbished/new unit on eBay with some mods already installed in it.

    @TonyClimate @eBay Refusal to have Live Customer Service Employees is a major defect of Online Companies. They hide behind the computer and make minor issues major headaches. Happens ALL THE TIME. We need a law requiring live customer service.

    @burgerbread1 My store has been open and month didn't start focusing on it until until 2 week ago. I've been selling on eBay for about 6 months I probably have sold over 80 pool cues buy now I think. I also write the sale listing for a major pool cue manufacturer website. They are starting to go live but its a slow process. You can tell which ones i wrote because they make sense. not bad consideringI only bought a pool table less than a year ago after taking 37 years off. I documented the pool table purchase and refurbishment its in my Highlights. I already redid the table a second time had changed to cloth to blue though

    @ClarkeSoph77782 @PlaystationSize @XxAntioFurxX Again monkey, did we say anything about modern gamers or are we clearly talking about the old gen, dork. Seems like I hit the nail on the head, you might actually be a monkey with that slow comprehension. The Xbox 360 store shut down and the PS3 store is mid-closure. How else would people get that $60 Black Ops 2 you’re talking about? Huh monkey? Tell me. It’s either from stores such as Gamestop or online… and eBay accounts for nearly 3 million video games sold online annually in the US alone. I hope this is not too much to read for your monkey brain.

    @TBon456 Problem is you can’t resell donuts on eBay, and they go stale eventually so there’s a time limit on when you can resell them No point in buying 50 boxes of donuts that will go stale before you can eat them

    I want someone in your higher ups to contact me and resolve this issue i have been with you for years and that's your way of appreciating loyalty. After this is resolved I will be closing my ebay account @eBay_UK

    @Frogboyx1Gaming Costco has a CyberPowerPC at $999 after a $500 instant rebate. Core Ultra 5 225F, 32GB DDR5, 1TB NVMe, RTX 5060. Rebate expires 08/23/26. The sign lists a lot. It does not list the one number that decides whether this machine is useful to you. It names the GPU model, not its VRAM. That omission is not sneaky, just uninformative, because the plain RTX 5060 ships in exactly one config: 8GB GDDR7, 128-bit bus, 448 GB/s. There is no 12GB or 16GB version to distinguish it from. The 5060 Ti is the card with two flavors. People conflate them constantly. For 1080p gaming, 8GB is fine. For running models locally, 8GB is the entire conversation. What actually fits: 7B to 8B at Q4, roughly 4.5 to 5 GB, sits on the GPU with context to spare 12B to 14B at Q4, roughly 8 to 9 GB, already spilling into system RAM 20B and up, CPU offload, which means slow enough that you stop using it The 32GB of DDR5 does not rescue this. System RAM is the consolation prize, not the pool. Now the comparison most posts skip. A used RTX 3090 runs $850 to $1,100, typically landing near $1,000. That is 24GB of GDDR6X on a 384-bit bus at about 936 GB/s. Token generation is memory bandwidth bound, so you are not only getting 3x the capacity, you are getting roughly 2x the throughput on top of it. But read the units carefully. $999 buys 8GB inside a complete working system. $1,000 buys 24GB and nothing else. That "nothing else" is doing real work. Add a board, CPU, RAM, case, and an 850W supply to feed a 350W card wanting dual 8-pin, and you land at $1,600 to $1,800. The prebuilt's stock PSU almost certainly cannot take a 3090 later either, so treating the Costco box as an upgrade path is wishful. The filter step. Neither option is wrong. They answer different questions. If you want a working machine today and your models are 8B and under, $999 complete is a genuinely strong number. If the goal is 30B class models, you are not buying a computer, you are buying VRAM. And $999 buys 8GB of it welded into a chassis you cannot meaningfully upgrade. Intuition says that's a deal. Logic asks a deal on what, specifically. The spec that constrains your actual use case is the only one worth pricing. One caveat before anyone runs to eBay: most used 3090s mined through 2021 and 2022, and the GDDR6X on the backside runs hot enough to cook its thermal pads. Ask whether they were replaced.

    @TonyClimate @eBay I've never had an issue getting a refund through @eBay I've doing business and buying items for decades through eBay. Their process can take sone time but follow through with their steps, report that you never received the item, and they will refund you.

    @TonyClimate @eBay EBay is the pits, avoid at all costs unless they are long established stores/traders. EBay pretends to deal with issues, its judge and jury and offers no case arguments it’s a binary response from a limited character entry box. Left the platform years ago after bad experience

    Thank God for the people who price their old lucha magazines fairly on eBay. No way I'm paying $60-$70 for a completely unremarkable issue that doesn't even have the posters in it.

    @vcrqueenjen I scored my HDMI-out combo on eBay for only $75 cuz the DVD is broken(limit switches I think). It was an eWaste seller with 4 more, I thought about buying all of them and fixing to get $300 for each. But I have been unable to even fix mine so I guess it's good I didn't lol

    @TonyClimate @eBay Wait till you try to get a hold of @Uber. I had a billing issue because of a screw up between business and personal (I hate that they force me to mix accounts) and couldn’t get a ride scheduled that I had to have. No way to contact them. Finally had to blast on SM to get help.

    @StockSandbox @eBay I'm shocked that they're even giving me trouble. They took responsibility and offered me a 25% refund and I said that's unacceptable then they said okay sorry there's nothing we can do.

    @fawfulfan We need to crack down on the fencing operations too. E-commerce has allowed them to become million dollar enterprises. We need to crack down on Amazon, ebay, Facebook marketplace, etc. Hungary virtually stopped car theft by prioritizing going after the chop shops.

    @TonyClimate @eBay That’s becoming more of a problem for people that don’t do their research properly. If you get into bad habits they spill over into all walks of life.

    R.Louis (@RLouis1397) reported

    @TonyClimate @eBay I absolutely hate buying from eBay. Slow shipping and customer support. Always pay with PayPal when using eBay and have a credit card as the primary payment method for two layers of protection. Always DYOR on seller. If a price seems too good to be true, it probably is.

    My Little House book series unicorn find arrived today. The box didn’t make it through the journey, so I received it like this. Unfortunately, some of the covers on the discontinued copies now have creases. Will it affect resale? I’m going to find out. I paid $25 for this entire lot and eBay sold comps on the combined sets are over $500. My biggest problem actually isn’t the creased covers. It’s wanting to keep this set because I am a book collector as much as I am a book seller. What would you do?

  • CardsMax
    Max (@CardsMax) reported

    @bscholtz12 Good to hear from you Brandon I still think grading is inconceivably cracked even if shut down. If bankroll is >=$25,000 then I would take cards $750+ and grad with PSA at $80 per and let it compound, especially with it not requiring much time aside from the initial submission Lower; entirely focus on eBay and private sales. Raw cards if you want to make higher per card but slower movers, slabs and quick gains

    @TonyClimate @eBay Nonsense. You cannot shut down an account within 30 days of a transaction (when as a seller you still have liability).
