    @Bob_Bingi45 @M46726805 @mrfundman It’s simple you can get a new module for a model S for $200 on eBay.. 9 times out of 10 if there’s a problem, it’s just with one of the modules and your back on the road.. do you realize that they have a eight year 150k mile warranty on the battery and powertrain?

    @Joferjeff Wow. You won! Good for you! I don't think I would wanna be a seller on eBay. Too many people trying to scam. Apparently, this is a new eBay scam. You send the item, the purchaser tells you they received the item broken. You ask for a picture and they send you a picture of the broken item. In fact, it's not broken. The crack or break was added via Al. Instead of giving a refund and letting the purchaser keep the item, ask for the item back.

    @zompiggy6 They took the full bundle down but yeah it seems FZ is a totally seperate “class” but the 64 price tag is insane. Ebay imports are actually cheaper

    @Nesterp99 @OffDaHook35 Did eBay turn off Canada post labels permanently? I find sometimes they turn it off for certain amount of time then put it back on. Experienced a few issues on weekends.

    @foxenflask @Comedyorwat Like where your thesis is at. I would say that a re-rate of $GME prior to the Schedule TO makes the most sense. 1. Crush Q1 earnings, 2. Host earnings call with forward guidance to give shareholders confidence in per-share value with this eBay plan (not dilutive empire building) 3. Shareholders vote and approve shares and comp package 4. Immediate dilution doesn’t happen (per Ryan’s FG call) 5. Market starts saying… oh ****, he’s not doing this until it makes sense, and starts pricing in THAT alternative 6. Campaign continues with more eBay buying, more board pressure 7. Another financial backer/s comes in and slaps money down 8. Market starts saying… oh ****, this is gonna happen and starts pricing that in 9. Now $GME sits above (preferably $35) a solid price that makes for less dilution, better financing, and an even sweeter deal / schedule TO is laid on the table for eBay shareholders I don’t see this happening until $GME > $35, but I think he has a plan to get there.

    @RDKLInc Shipping on eBay is a big big problem. u are absolutely spot on. 1) Calc shipping is default setting. 2) they need to negotiate some kind of better rates. If you're shipping from a coast it's superrrr easy to get burned shipping to the other coast if you opt for free or fixed rt

    Can one of the folks that does the set sales help me out? Ive got a full set of 2026 bowman base and I want to list them all in a drop down style listing on eBay. The spreadsheet they have doesn’t make any sense to me e

    Got an eBay return request. On this card. Here’s my photo, showing what I believed as a print line. And the buyers return request photo. 1. I think the issue is fairly visible in my photo. Even if not extremely so I guess. 2. I nearly told the buyer to pound sand but it’s just not worth it. What do y’all think? As an aside, when I reviewed the card upon pulling it I did *not* run it through every angle and lighting imaginable

    Public Info: eBay you have vendors doing Drop Shipments to customers. The problem is Walmart deliveries Driver leaving packages at the counter, without informing the receptionist.

    @ShadaKaDjo Yes. Mine was USPS media mail. It's cheaper but there is no insurance at all if they screw up. That's the one problem with buying on Ebay. You can see the books better and less of them use stock images. But they just want to use that darn awful media mail. I'd rather pay more.

    Got a call from an eBay seller regarding an order. They called to say the sealed booster box I ordered has a rather large tare in it. I asked: ‘are the packs opened?’ ‘No, no, no, they’re still sealed, just the box’s seal is broken.’ They said. ‘Ship it, so I can rip it!’ I replied. And that was that.

    @cellamonico @binding_broken They went in 2 seconds there is no way in hell they went that quick, broken bindings should cancel all orders, these will no doubt be up on eBay for resell, I'm fuming the riftwar Saga is my favourite books of all time what a joke

    @Globalstats11 The CCIE exam in 2026 isn’t that hard. The theory is easy; the practical part is the real problem because you can’t afford to make mistakes. That’s why it’s worth buying training materials from Asians for example from Vietnam - on eBay. In half a year, you can grind through the labs from an architect’s perspective.

    @KaijuCooper after lockdown being impossible to find I broke down and ordered him off ebay. Only for my local walmart to get a fresh wave with lockdown. I was mad.

  • HatterMaddie17
    Maddie Hatter (@HatterMaddie17) reported

    I used to sell stuff on eBay quite often, but the fees for sellers keep going up incrementally making it not worth the trouble to sell. In fact, the effective cost per sale has gone up by about 8–10% for many transactions compared to 2021 levels. Doesn’t eBay understand that their customers aren’t just buyers, but sellers too? This is one thing I’d like Ryan Cohen to consider if GameStop acquires eBay. $GME $eBay

    I have a firman inverter and my mechanic can’t figure it out…. From time to time he can’t figure it out..: I usually will take the good parts off of it and use them in other repairs..:: Sometimes I sell a few parts on eBay… This one I decided to list as a “mechanic special” As-Is..listed for $100…: A guy messaged me and asked for a video::: I gave him a video…. He asked if I’d take 40… No… 50…. 60… 70… (I did say yes if he could pickup today). He dropped by at lunch…. He brought some carb spray… He then asked me where the air filter was..:: I showed him…behind a panel… He asked for a screw driver…to take the panel off…. I told him no I have to go to lunch and the plan wasn’t to let you see if you can fix it and then give me $70 for it… He then said it was too Risky at $70 and offered me $50…. I told him No… He left without it for $20… I should have let him fix it then told it would be $200…. This is why I love reselling! You meet unique folks!!

    @surgieboi Had them fail my card this weekend marked it a “minor issue” “couldn’t match the grader”… the grader was them and it was authentic… something in my description caused a “/“ to miss so they failed it… When I called eBay they were thoroughly confused
