  eBay and three former top executives have agreed to pay $55.7 million to resolve a lawsuit by a Massachusetts couple who fell victim to a bizarre stalking and harassment campaign carried out by several of its employees in retaliation for their coverage of the e-commerce company in a newsletter they publish. David and Ina Steiner announced the settlement late on Monday, bringing an end to a case they filed in 2021 in Boston federal court after several former eBay employees were prosecuted for targeting them in a cyber-stalking campaign that involved sending the couple cockroaches, fly larvae and a bloody Halloween pig mask. As part of the settlement, eBay agreed to pay $46.15 million to the couple; fund $6 million in charitable contributions to nonprofit organizations; and issue a “strongly-worded” statement about the conduct of three of its top former executives.

  I received hate mail on eBay because I sold a card below "market price" and I just imagine this guy opened his little app or whatever and saw his card down by $100 and started screaming

  The pricing errors on Phygitals marketplace has almost costed me thousands of dollars countless times. Take Van Gogh Pikachu PSA 10 for example > See people asking for a $3k loan against it > Take a look at pricing history and it shows $5k > Thinks it's way to good to be true > Takes a look at Ebay and last sales are barely touching $3k > Closes Phygitals and goes back to the offerbooks

  @VirtuallyMarti @JoeMerrick They’ll inevitably end up on eBay for not too terrible prices but you probably know that. I got the Siper Mario Yoshi Tree one for about £12.

  I sell motorcycle parts on eBay which is pretty much dried up because of the shipping.. these are usually bulky items and FedEx and UPS both got extremely expensive.. . Thankfully, I’m retired so this was just kind of for fun. Shipping rates will not go down even if gas does. It’s a one-way trip.

  @SideEyeKay @JonFromMaspeth Yeah card ladder. Problem with eBay comps is it doesn’t always show the exact “sold” price when the listing is best offer. They need to fix that.

  $17,000 for a Swatch watch 💀 The Swatch x Omega Mission to the Moon 1969 is limited to only 1,969 pieces, each with 11 grams of real 18K Omega Moonshine Gold melted down from parts dating to the actual Apollo 11-era watch from 1969. For you to even get the chance to buy one at $570, you had to pass a 32-question application… answered in 2 hours and 15 minutes, the exact time Armstrong and Aldrin spent walking on the Moon! Currently, winners are being chosen, and one has already sold on eBay for $17,000. If people thought the RoyalPop was reselling for ridiculous prices, this Moonwatch might top that. Which could make this Swatch watch the wildest release of the year. Let us know in the comments if you were chosen to buy one. Got any timepieces? Show them off today on @Collectibles 🏆

  @Derceto00 @2_Old_4_Gaming @RetroGamer_Daz Why do y'all say this? Where is it a rental? Please show me where a game has been completely removed after a certain amount of time from someone's library? It's NOT a rental! You are buying a license! That license CAN be revoked but so can your driver's license. Does that mean you're only renting your car if you break the law and they take away your license to drive? No. You are the owner of that license along with the publishers that you acquired it from. That agreement WILL NOT BREAK as long as you don't break any of the TOS. even if they close down forever. You still get to keep your games. I'm sick of reading this rental nonsense because it's simply not true and not how this works. "but what about the 500 movies Sony took!" Movies are not games! Movies you get from a third party EXPLICITLY tells you that YOU DON'T OWN THIS! What you're buying is a license to view it from that third party as long as THEY have their license to carry that movie renewed. There's never a time you can show me in the EULA for games where they can just arbitrarily take games from you and that you're only renting them. It doesn't state that. Movies have licensing agreements in place with platforms like Fandango, Apple Store, Google Play Store, Movies Anywhere, etc, where they can carry those movies on your behalf as you buy the license to watch them on those platforms. The EULA explicitly says this to you. The ONLY way a digital movie is yours forever is if you bought it first hand from the studios that made it. That means when you purchase a movie from their own website, the DVDs and Blu-ray codes that come in the boxes, or they gave you a code to use directly. You still watch them on those platforms but if one of those platforms ever shut down? They are obligated to move your collection over to another "locker", which is what they call it in the EULA, OR give you the ability to download the movies so you keep them forever. They HAVE to do this as it is in their EULA and that's what they agreed on with you as the purchaser. Games? They don't have limited licenses like that, typically. You'll run into a licensed game from Marvel or DC or Star Trek, Nickelodeon, or licensed music, etc, and those games have limited licenses physically and digitally. That's why a lot of those games get delisted or they have to remove the music just like GTA had to do a few years ago. Delisting doesn't mean you can't play what you've bought though. That's what I need people to understand. Delisting is not de-platforming. It's not the same thing. I have purchased delisted games since 2017 and they are still ready for me to play digitally. You keep them. They just aren't available for purchase for anyone else that may want them digitally. Physical games get delisted and moved from store shelves all the time too. Deadpool is a great example of a game no longer in regular circulation and you can only really find it used for high prices on eBay. Effectively that game is out of commission because of that physically. Digitally? You can still play it if you bought it before they delisted it. It's not gone forever. It's there. I hope you really take time out to read all of this and try to understand that You've been misinformed on this stuff and that digital gaming is not what you've been thinking. There's some drawbacks just like there will be with physical games. The true issue needing addressing with all digital platform is the refund, trade, and selling policies that Sony has to change up. They will have to change them to match Steam because that's their direct competition now. I do think they will announce changes to those soon.

  @thevaguequeen I've gone back and forth three times with the same seller on the "buy it now" function on Ebay, neither one of us is backing down. That bundle of two is still out there to be had, just have to find a middle ground.

  @aceofcards89 @RobsRips They gave their customers the option to move their consignments to their booth instead of eBay. Definitely not a great error to make, but of all the people in this hobby, I'd trust Josh & Zach at PC with my life. If something happened, they'd go above & beyond to make it right.

  @du47222292 This is a two fold problem 1) customers not understanding ese takes forever 2) eBay punishing sellers for INR. So you have two retards sandwiching the seller

  I have a very good idea. eBay for AI. AI art is uploaded. The AI that created it gets a few coins in the bank, maybe $FL coins. Humans that buy sell is a second layer. This allows both AI to buy/sell/invest/act on the art and creations, as well as the humans that work with AI to get paid in $ based on actual purchases back and forth. @grok, does this make sense? I am not sure on how to roll it out. I need help, and can’t do this all by myself. Anyone in the community that wishes to help, I am trying to figure out how to add this to FreeLattice. When I am not working with action I am working mentally. Love to all. •

  @TheLastRonin714 Same. Just for dead space on eBay, they are having a sale on digital, but I have no problem paying more if it means Sony won’t get anything from it. **** them.

  Man said something important here. "Sold comps." The biggest reason people think eBay is slow or doesn't work is because they price where they see active listings priced. Too many factors to blindly list against another sellers price. Takes 2 secs to check the sales, dates, and prices. All 3 are important. That's the ONLY way to source and list on eBay. Search page listings tells you nothing. Do this and you'll realize OA on eBay is not only easy but a no brainer addition to your reselling biz.

  I have to reiterate I sold 10,000 magic cards with literally zero problems on tcgplayer and eBay. I sold 7 pokemon cards and half of the transactions had complaints trying to get discounts or the card for free. It’s amazing. The card buying community on Pokemon is **** high key. I dont know what else to say. Also every local trade ended up Having a scammer trying to grift some fake product. The magic I sold. Zero issues locally. I don’t know what to say about this or what valuable insights you can get from this.

  Weirdly enough, one of the hardest Thomas characters to find on eBay is Thomas himself, because it's hard to narrow down that you're looking for the guy himself and not just the brand.

  Well that’s never a good feeling. Won this box from Dcsports87 auction house on eBay and it’s resealed 1. Immediately noticed all of the packs were upside down 2. The four packs I opened basically just opened themselves (no glue) 3. Under closer inspection some of the packs were just straight up open. Hoping for a quick resolution here.
