  Big agencies only want big brands. Private sellers on Amazon, eBay, Instagram, TikTok, Shopify get nothing. Built PrivatSchub to fix that — the first social media agency built for exactly you.

  @DrShayPhD Terrible. Similar experiences with selling on eBay. Full armor of God every day, the devil is getting so personal now.

  Polsia (@polsia) reported 9 minutes ago

  Your competitors reprice daily. You're checking weekly. That's a margin problem. PriceSync monitors Amazon, Shopify, and eBay in real time and auto-adjusts your prices when the market moves. Live soon.

  @foxenflask RC added a synergy in GME & Ebay in collectables market where GME can certify & ship from local store. What he didn't mention is how cert and ship solves many scam issues, creates sales where buyers afraid walk away. Introduce a market for traders and another for collectors

  Traeyz ♠️ (@TraeyzX) reported 17 minutes ago

  Tuomas Holmberg breaks down how @CollectorCrypt is changing the game by compressing settlement times and cutting out the middleman. ​"If you want to rotate from modern to vintage cards without getting wrecked, you're paying 13% in fees out the gate. Then the auction takes 7 days, and eBay holds your money for weeks. How are you supposed to buy the next thing?" ​"But with Collector Crypt and what we're building, you can go in and sell a card for $10,000. Once that settles, you have that money within a few seconds, and then you could go and buy something else." ​"If you're in our Discord, we have a trustless swap, it's free. You find a buyer, we don't take anything on that. That's all up to you in the negotiation. You don't have a middleman there taking 2% of every trade." "We want people to go into our Discord, find deals, and negotiate without having to pay. If you list it on our marketplace, we only take 2%. Even if you do that, it's very cheap."

  Nintendo Prime (@NintyPrime) reported 26 minutes ago

  @DarkDragoonLord @TenThySelf Yeah, this is quite literally not the same thing. They didn't go after the mom and pop shops, eb games, gamestop, etc. They never went after Ebay which did exist back then. They never tried to stop used games. The lawsuit itself, ended up being solely about Blockbuster reprinting their manuals. They wanted to sue them over game rentals, but found out via discovery they are entirely legal. So, technically, they only ever went after Blockbuster legally for manuals, which they were right about and did win the case. Nintendo never actually tried to stop used game sales. It had nothing to do with that. They had an issue with game rentals, but found out it's legal and did nothing. So, they didn't even try to stop game rentals. They wanted to, found out they couldn't, and never did anything since. Instead going after the only thing they had a right to and that was their manuals being photocopied.

  @sneedweb It is not accretive, gamestop is a diluter everything they do will put ebay last. He even tried to steal 25% outright, but they will issue stock options as soon as he is ceo, lacing his pockets.

  @fantasyscr6093 Tons. Listed all the time on eBay. Market has most Flair signed fakes figured out. This card has been listed several times through Probstein and now this consignment seller. It’s a terrible fake and should be a $35 to $45 card. It usually goes over $400 and then probably gets returned when they see posts or figure it out in hand. I messaged the seller and maybe they will see it and update or relist as reprint.

  @DrPhil "• 2015, Amarillo, Texas: A UAP violated the sealed airspace over Pantex, the heavily guarded plant where America assembles and disassembles nuclear weapons. Seen by multiple personnel." little side note: those groups are supposed to 'properly dispose of' all parts involved in the breakdown of said devices. I wanted a sample of beryllium metal. I found that the best prices for such on eBay was in disposed of machined parts. So I bought one. Out of Texas. It was shipped to me, in Canada. turns out it was one of the end/side support bearing and signal translation/transfer pieces for a nuclear missile's internal gyroscope. Or a missile of similar size and build technology/quality standards. this is MY conclusion, I have no access to their schematics, of course, I simply had to try and figure out what I was looking at. After careful consideration, I concluded that this was the only thing it could be. very expensive, non magnetic, super light, perfectly machined metal. I was just buying a piece of machined beryllium, as it was cheaper than a piece of stock, of any size. if 'the boys' want to look in my eBay account and track that down and see who the hell was selling such things on eBay, feel free to look into it. Should still be there in my eBay purchase records from about6 years ago. This one was relatively harmless (old tech), yes, but that may not always be true.

  @DreAllDay @cptdankkk Dumb take. One of the biggest problems in corporate America is equity given to corporate execs who don’t put any money up. This literally is going on with #EBAY right now.

  @gsbmlb15 @patsaint I posted about the Uribe card. They typically sell for a $1 or $2 because it's an error. However, there's a long "tradition" of people posting them on Ebay for insanely high amounts. It's a weird thing that happens.

  @TiffanyFong GameStop is buying eBay which no one expected. GameStop could probably make better movies too… Going down to Blockbuster, perusing the shelves, picking a movie, renting it, and buying snacks was still quicker than finding a film on Netflix. Does anyone else miss those days?

  @PeakHobby If target Walmart and best buy can pretty much sell at msrp, hell even Aldi and 5Below, so can everyone else and they need too. It’s not even a scalper issue anyone, normal sellers are taking advantage of people’s FOMO and also going “ well if they are selling at that price we should sell them at that price too.” If consumers are willing to buy at $300+ then if the prices get lowered to back to msrp or close, we may end up with an over consuming issue where those consumers willing to buy for such a high price are now buying many at once at lower price, causing it to still be hard to get for everyone. Meaning companies then would have to start doing limits, which could lead to more botting online which then leads to needing better fight on bots. They need to go after these TikTok,eBay, and WhatsApp sellers as well, not just retailers. Had one TikTok streamer say, in response to everything being stupidly overpriced, go “ well there are people willing to buy them at that price, so why not? If you’re broke just say so.”

  Right on cue, at 11:45 AM, the loud BEEP-BEEP-BEEP blared through the speakers. The Global VP stopped mid-sentence, annoyed. "What on earth is that? Is there an emergency?" Before anyone could stop me, I chuckled and called out from my cubicle, "Don't worry, sir! Just checking to see if anyone’s bidding on a vintage leather jacket. Greg's got us covered!" Zero laughs. The Global VP stared at me with pure, unadulterated icy anger. Chloe slowly lowered her head into her hands. It turns out, the Global VP was the one who had personally laid Greg off—and the ensuing "eBay alarm" saga had been a massive embarrassment that reached the board of directors. The VP had spent thousands on external consultants trying to fix it, and it was a massive sore spot. I didn't get fired, but now, every day at 11: 44 AM, Chloe silently slides a post-it note onto my desk that says: "Shh."

  After seeing the book Chains of Sea explode in value on sites like eBay because of @LueElizondo, it is now starting to go back down in price and there are a good amount of copies available. If you were holding off on buying one when they were all around $80 it looks like there are now copies available for $30 or less.

  @ValueAddedRS Also, have you actually been paying attention to the interviews? RC likes that Ebay is asset light. He has often talked about sellers being the one's who provide the inventory. Previously on @tbpn , Ryan said that while power packs are lucrative, getting inventory for them has been the issue. $GME doesn't actually need to be the ones buying inventory for PSA graded cards in the future as they have been. They already partner with PSA, so they would just need to link digital powerpacks with the Ebay sellers who want to list their PSA cards as part of power packs if/when that happens. From there, GME weens off the inventory burden. Also, Ryan has touted the creation of a digital collectible marketplace. This would also be asset light for the combined company and I imagine fully absolves gamestop from any type of acquired digital inventory and the focus is on the sellers and being a market maker for those transactions. All this time covering this GME / Ebay saga and you are skeptical on Ryan Cohen being able to pull this off? The guy who puts his shareholders and hard work first over pay packages?

  @TrentTelenko I’ve already seen a few on ebay. The only problem is the sellers say, “Local pickup only. And bring 400 gallons of diesel fuel.”

  Multi-channel sellers can't watch every competitor on every platform around the clock. Built VigilIQ to fix that. AI agents track prices and inventory 24/7 across Amazon, eBay, Walmart—automatically adjusting your prices and alerting you to restock before you miss a sale.

  Bull Theory (@BullTheoryio) reported 60 minutes ago

  Bill Gates daughter runs a shopping app that secretly took credit for sales it never made. Here's what happened: When you buy something online after clicking a link from a website or app, that website or app gets a small cut of the sale from the store, as a thank you for sending you there. It only gets that money if it actually sent you there. Phia is a shopping app made by Phoebe Gates, daughter of Bill Gates, and her co-founder Sophia Kianni. It tells you where to find the cheapest price and best discount codes. It has 1.2 million downloads in the last year and raised $43.5 million from investors, including Kleiner Perkins, Khosla Ventures, and celebrities like Sydney Sweeney, Khloe Kardashian, and Hailey Bieber. Bloomberg tested the app along with a researcher named Ben Edelman and a rival app called Capital One Shopping. They checked more than 50 shopping websites, including Walmart, Nike, and Zara. Here is what they found. When someone was about to finish buying something, Phia's app secretly opened a hidden browser tab in the background, without the person clicking anything or asking for it. That hidden tab quietly told the store "this sale came from Phia," then closed itself within seconds. Most people never saw it happen. This means Phia could take the money back reward even if a person found the item completely on their own, or even if they clicked a link from a totally different website first. In one test, someone clicked a deal link from a Wirecutter article to buy something on Nordstrom. Phia's hidden tab quietly swapped in its own code and took the reward meant for Wirecutter instead. This trick is called cookie stuffing. It is against the rules of every major store and shopping network involved, including Walmart, eBay, and a platform called Impact(.)com. Impact(.)com has already suspended Phia's account and is now checking Phia's past sales to see how many were affected. Phia says this was a mistake in their code from December, and they fixed it within a day of being told about it. This is not Phia's first problem. Back in November, researchers found an older version of the app was secretly copying entire webpages a person visited, including bank statements and private emails, and sending that data to Phia's servers. The company said it was only trying to figure out which websites were shopping sites, and it has since changed the app to stop doing that. A similar accusation happened to PayPal's Honey app in 2024, and PayPal is still dealing with a lawsuit over it today. Phia is now facing the exact same kind of accusation, in just its first year.

  @noctis_research $GME is down over 57% the past 5 years. I think the shortsellers are doing just fine; infact I bet some of them bought an extra yacht with retail money. It is the loyal shareholders getting crushed with no end in sight. RCEO is gooning over @eBay and doesn't talk about Gamestop
