    eBay is BLOWING up my phone with live stream notifications that I do not care about. Tried turning notifications off and nothing. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    I Am (Still) Meatballs (@MeatballsRedux) reported

    @premiercards_2 I wonder if this is a timing issue. You made your offer, it was pending, an initial bid came in, and then the seller accepted the offer? I don't sell enough on eBay to know this, but do you know if a pending offer stays live after a bid has come in?

    @1Nicdar Not long after we married, my wife wanted a KitchenAid stand mixer. I couldn’t afford a new one, even at black Friday discount. I ended up buying a used one off ebay for $50 plus shipping. The lady warned me that it wasn’t in great, but that it worked. We used it for about 4-5 years until I bought my wife a newer, larger one. She handed it down to my stepdaughter who got about 3 years before it started leaking oil terribly.

    @revaultdrops Market Arbitrage & Secondary Pricing Report for Nike Kobe 10 Protro 'Halo' (IO3415-100) — Size 12 US Men's: • Model: Nike Kobe 10 Protro Low 'Halo' • SKU: IO3415-100 • Size: 12 US Men's • Retail Price: $190–$200 Marketplace Comps (low-confidence — search results are mixed sizes/general listings, not size-12-specific verified comps): • StockX: overall lowest ask listed around $500 (incl. fees $543), not broken out by size 12 specifically. • GOAT: no size-12-specific listing found for this SKU in what I pulled; don't have a verified range. • eBay: a brand-new listing (sizes 8-13) at $224.99, and one sold comp (size unspecified) at $250.00. Fee-Adjusted Arbitrage Breakdown (eBay Buy → StockX Sell) — this uses the $500 StockX overall lowest ask and $224.99 eBay listing as rough inputs, not verified size-12 comps, so treat the math below as illustrative only, not actionable: • Buy Source (eBay): ~$225.00 ask + $15.00 est. shipping = $240.00 total cost. • Target Sell (StockX): ~$500-$543 list price range. • Applying the skill's fee model (StockX 9% + 3% processing, $15 shipping) gives a rough net proceeds and profit, but I don't have enough size-12-specific, freshness-verified data to state a precise dollar figure or ROI% with confidence. • Capital Lock-Up Duration: ~7–10 business days (StockX payout delay). Risk & Liquidity Analysis: • Given the mix of pre-release/general asks vs a single verified sold comp ($250), any implied high ROI here likely reflects a data/comp mismatch rather than a real arbitrage opportunity — per the skill's >40% ROI sanity flag, this needs second-source confirmation before acting on it.

    @DaSluggySlug Again. I don’t know what that guy was referring to. He said something about how he receives great feedback so I honestly assumed he was using eBay or something. Of course it’s buyee that is causing the issues. Thats why so many sellers have buyee in particular blocked from purchasing.

    @artistsbox This has to be one of the worst takes I’ve ever seen. First off they are pieces of **** criminals who should have their hands cut off if they are caught. As for the people cheering this on, if that is the mindset that one has, building their card collection is the least of their problems they will have in life. The hobby is a thousand times bigger than it ever was in terms of exposure and money, simply because of the digital age we live in and how easy it is to sell stuff on eBay and other online marketplaces. Add in the celebrity collectors, and it’s never coming back down to earth, in my opinion. Everything has gone up exponentially. My next door neighbor, who’s a few years older than me (we both went to high school in the ’90s), just bought a loaded Jeep Wrangler for his kid for $77k. His father bought him a brand new Wrangler in 1990 or ’91 for $14k. That’s just the reality of the times we’re living in. In some cases, people simply have a ton more disposable income now than at any point in history. The reality is you’re never going to be able to buy a box of Chrome Hobby for $100 again with even a long-shot chance of hitting multiple $100k+ card or, in some cases, million-dollar cards. And if Topps does wind up putting out a product in the $50–75-a-box range, no one would want it. It would get stripped immediately, and they’d print 50,000 cases of it.

    @strangecapers92 I hadn't bought anything in a long time from ebay and didn't realize you had to pay immediately now, and I had been having some trouble with my bank account/scammer stuff.....not fun. I was that buyer! (PSA 8 Lamine Yamal Purple Mojo card)

    People are selling these on eBay for a few hundred dollars. Is it possible you could find a way to make a quick buck without breaking kids hearts. Two giant thumbs down. I hope @vancanadians gets those kids two bobble heads.

    As the undisputed sovereign ruler of Throat Goat Ethan Van Sciver's dwindling fans, I happily receive your apology, and throw in directly into the rubbish bin where it belongs with all your other lies and broken promises. As Ethan's version of comicsgate continues its RAPID DECLINE. We have a message here from the slimeball himself. This reads as a declaration of TOTAL DEFEAT. Ethan has spent the last decade plus making excuses and and ignoring his every-growing laundry list of late and unfulfilled projects. He has treated his "fans" like absolute garbage. An endless money cow that he can wring dry and whip if the dare question him for being late. Now he stands in a situation where his word cannot be trusted. He has lied too many times, he has turned on too many fans for demanding him to be even a a modicum of the "professional" he always claims to be. These words ring as hollow as his fat rotting gourd head. To use a word that Ethan himself used to use ironically, and now describes as "hibbity jibbity", the least two years have humbled Ethan. In 2025 he watched comicsgate 's decline hit an acceleration point and start hemorrhaging money at a rate like never before. At the end of the year Ethan declared that he was "limping". Ethan and his zeros hoped that 2026 would being a revival of comicsgate, now, 9 months into the year, that revival has not manifested. In fact, comicsgate went from the freefall of 2025, to hitting the ground and splattering in 2026. Money has dried up from all sources. Ethan has been reduced to juggling MULTIPLE penny ante moneymaking schemes to suckle the last few dribbles of cash out of the corpse of what was comicsgate. eBay, begging for superchats, doing commissions for table scraps, opening epanhadling ko-fi page, selling "prints", he is trying every flim-flam he can manage. Saggy Face Shane Davis's BackDoorMeBro was supposed to be the saving grace for Ethan. And it has turned out to be yet enough unmitigated disaster. Last year Ethan had his first cyberfrog book campaign that failed to reach 100k in 24 hours, taking a week to reach 100k. This year Ethan is looking at his first Cyberfrog book campaign that has failed to earn $100k in a week. And there are no signs that the bleeding will stop. Now that he had BlackedMeBro Ethan's plan is to further devalue to the Cyberfrog property by pumping out bilge slop. More campaigns for worthless spin-off books. The value of Cyberfrog as a franchise is shot any excitement that once surrounded the 2018 revival is long dead between delays, Ethan's behavior in comicsgate, and now the slop-pumping.

    @MikeStoklasa This was part of a promotional series of posters made well over 5 years ago. I only know this because I found them on ebay for each series and bought the ones for TNG, DS9 and Voyager because I loved the artwork...please don't leave us hanging though, what is your issue??

    @WBumsratte @XBOX You should be mad. This launch was absolutely terrible, and Xbox should be ashamed to have let this happen. Literally no loyal Xbox fans got a console. It all went to scalpers, with maybe a few normal people getting one. There are already so many listed on eBay.

    @resellingnews It’s either incompetence from distributors or theft at the packaging and/or production level, the same thing happened in the sneaker scene IIRC. Also, that’s the ONLY one that @eBay took down so far. There’s a Gengar ex SIR, Salamence ex SIR, and other cards that are still up.

    Retail-after-sale dropshipping is fragile: thin margins, slow delivery, and policy risk. Quaymber gives lean eBay sellers verified wholesale sourcing, landed-cost and stock comparisons, plus policy-aware listing, inventory, and order workflows. Live soon.

    @CardPurchaser It's not @CheckOutMyCards. (COMC). They used to be the BEST on ebay. Now their volume has eclipsed their service ability. Slow ship times, no top loaders anymore, insane shipping costs, and zero response on issues. Used to love them, but will never buy from them again.
