  @loyalmoses The main issue for many of the filament brands is the ruinous pricing in the last 2-3 years. And it's hard to stand out, what does their filament do better than the one that is sold for 5-6 € or $ per kg in bundles of 10 spools on AliExpress/eBay? Most PLA/PETG is OK in quality.

  2/ Time for some real DD. 🧠 The media wants you asking “Could GME + eBay fit?” WRONG QUESTION. The REAL questions are: Who buys who? Who eats the dilution? Who gets PAID? 💸 Who controls the float? Let's break down the actual mechanics.

  @ShaunFitzzzy @Moyagi5 @EchoChamber741 Delaware Section 203 makes anything over 15% not worth it. That makes any GME takeover related votes pass through the board first for 3 years. This is also why Prop 4 to reduce the eBay special meeting requirement down from 20% to 10% so critical

  I want to touch on the fortnite sprites situation. So, as much as I enjoy the concept... There's a MASSIVE glaring issue here... People are LITERALLY SELLING gold variants and the zero point sprite... On places like eBay, and even on YouTube, twitch, and Tiktok streams...

  @bavedikian @BestBuy @FedEx I was selling stuff on ebay and shipping them via FedEx. Couple time when the item was damaged due to FedEx handling they refunded me. So I don't see what is the best buy problem if FedEx admitted its responsibility. BTW by doing sow FedEx kept me as a customer and I improved my packaging.

  @Addison95813086 @bashmcalister His signature is worth nothing. An Eevee he signed sold for $3.60 on 28 March on eBay. If the kids really are chasing dollars, what's the issue? Good on them for developing their entrepreneurial flair. I could even understand testing their smarts a little with a 'not quite worth it' trade. But that's not what he did. He mugged them. He saw his chance to trade something of value for something of no value with a little kid and his eyes lit up.

  Over the Board's Head: How @ryancohen Is Now Pitching the Owners $EBAY 's board already said no. "Neither credible nor attractive." A board answers to the institutions that own the company. And in the Barron's interview, Cohen stopped arguing with the board and started making the case to them: the shareholders, the desks, the funds that actually cast the votes. And everything he's built over the last four months only matters if he can get those people to flip. TWO INSTRUMENTS, ONE NUMBER I've covered the comp and the TD condition before, but here's the short version: - 171.5 million options, struck at $20.66, vesting on a ladder from a $20 billion market cap to $100 billion. - The TD Securities letter ties the $20 billion in debt to an investment-grade profile the combined entity doesn't have yet. One rewards a higher market cap. The other requires it. When the pay package and the financing condition are both calibrated to the same number, that number IS the strategy. He doesn't get paid for owning eBay. He gets paid for the re-rating. And the debt only unlocks after the re-rating happens. THE DEF 14A TELL Cohen just clarified in the proxy that the 2.5 billion share authorization will most likely pass as it has the lowest possible bar to clear and that his performance award is not contingent on it. What does that do? It splits the two things eBay's board lumped together in the rejection. The complaint about dilution and the worries regarding his comp package were just separated. The authorization isn't a personal payday mechanism anymore, it's standalone acquisition currency for a parent entity. And the comp is no longer a dilution grab but a target on a market cap that vests no matter what the share count does. This is housekeeping before a pitch. You don't clean up the optics on your own filings for retail. Retail isn't reading the DEF 14A line-by-line. You do it for the institutions you're about to ask for a vote. THE FLIP This is the part the setup was built for. Proposal 4 at eBay's June 17 AGM lowers the threshold to call a special meeting to 10%. If institutions flip to yes, the gate drops. $GME sits ~1% from that line in derivative exposure and is actively converting. But a special meeting doesn't put an acquisition to vote. A 10% holder can't call a meeting and have shareholders "accept the deal." What a special meeting does vote on is control. So the real chain isn't one step. It's this: Flip Prop 4 → clear the 10% gate → call the special meeting → replace or pressure the board → a friendly board signs the merger → then it goes to a merger vote. So the board is the lock, not the bid. The special meeting is just how you change who holds the key. And that's exactly what Cohen needs: A friendly board that will sit across from a diversified parent: one that raises capital at the top, carries the leverage across subsidiaries, and gives the sovereign wealth fund a vehicle that actually exists. That's the fast path. If the flip doesn't come, he falls back on the slow path - the 2027 declassified-board slate. Which is why the flip matters more than the bid price, the leverage math, or the rejection. Every instrument he's laid down: the conditional financing, the HSR-gated derivatives, the comp ladder, the dead space he cleared around June 17 relies on this. Prop 4 is the key. The Barron's pitch is him reaching for it. THE KEYSTONE Now the honest part. This is still one bet wearing every costume. The flip, the IG profile, the SWF commitment, the comp vesting, the warrants going ITM are all downstream of a single event. And now there's a hard deadline on it we have never had before: October 30, 2026. If the institutions don't flip on June 17, the fast path closes and the clock keeps running toward a warrant expiry the slow path may not beat. If they do flip, he gets the room he's been building toward and the right to make the pitch the entire structure was designed to set up. The pieces are on the table. June 17 is when we find out if the owners hand him the key. Or if he has to break the door down. TL;DR: The board said no. The board was never the vote. Prop 4 lets a 10% holder force a special meeting and a special meeting changes the board, it doesn't approve the deal. So the play is to seat directors who'll sign the merger. The board is the lock. Prop 4 is the key. June 17 is the turn. And the clock is real now: Oct 30, 2026. The re-rating has to beat it. He laid every piece before he asked.

  @Mark_Rathgeber There are a lot of used SAS <4TB HDDs on EBay going anywhere between £3-£5 per TB. I bought ~30 of them myself & had 1 DOA (not worth returning tbh). Most been going 24/7 for past 3-4 months without any issues even though most had almost 50K power on hours at time of purchase

  This is super misleading. Ai doom and gloom is getting out of control. Just try calling: • Verizon • AT&T • Comcast • Microsoft • Amazon • Google • Apple • Chase • Bank of America • Capital One • Wells Fargo • Walmart • Target • eBay • Geico • Progressive • State Farm None of these huge American companies use American call centers. Those “American jobs” fearmongers cry about weren’t staying here anyway - they’re not even here now. They were all shipped overseas (India, Philippines, etc.) AI handling the routine stuff (password resets, billing) can actually bring better service back stateside while keeping humans for complex issues. The real threat to US customer service jobs was offshoring. AI might finally help reverse it. Stop the panic.

  @SnowWolfy7 @Beno_ldn No, I'm saying the only way to fix a national financial deficit is sky high taxes, of *some* sort. Rishi Sunak could have and twice chose not to, introduce a digital tax for ecommerce for the likes of Amazon/Fb/Ebay. Labour can't magic up many ways to vanish the debt

  Going on Ebay and just doing a search for the words: "Ultraman Figure" or "Ultraman Monster Figure" is like opening a portal that sends me tumbling down a rabbit hole of kooky, crazy monster toys. I don't want to buy them ALL but I could happily waste hours of my life sifting through them all and zeroing in on my favorites and comparing prices like some kind of picky, choosy addict. Somebody call emergency services😵 Get me outta here...🤪

  @adeoressi True, when we were stuck in traffic on the way back to NYC, Adeo asked me what I was going to do after PayPal/X and I said I always wanted to do something to advance space, but didn’t think there was anything private individuals could do. The origin of SpaceX was doing a philanthropic mission to get the public excited about life on Mars, so that NASA’s budget could be increased to achieve that goal. There was no commercial ambition at the time. The $50M was from the proceeds of the sale of PayPal to eBay. After learning more about the limiting factors for humanity in space, it became obvious that the issue was a lack of advancement in rocket technology, in particular the failure to develop a fully reusable rocket, without which expanding consciousness beyond Earth is impossible.

  Its impressive the @openclaw frenzy. I'm looking for a Mini PC or something to run a simple home server instead of a VPS and Mac Mini was a good choice. On Ebay a 6y/o used Mac Mini 400-500$, and a Macbook Air M1 also 16gb for 200-300$ 👀 Same chip!

  You know how you put an end to these pathetic Scalpers online? Refuse to allow sellers to set their prices above the price of the product. And if they do, the creator of the product can take the listing down. So ******* sick of wanting to buy something cool, whether it’s a collectors edition, Pokémon cards, concert tickets, it sells out, and seeing it for 5x the original price on EBay or some other BS website. This happens way too often nowadays
