    @MonkeysxMoo35 Been having this issue too with some series I've been wanting to collect. I've had some minor luck on eBay with "like new" listings. But would love to have had these still be in print and not hunt them down.

  • AnAverageGamerX
    An Average Gamer - N (@AnAverageGamerX) reported

    @PlayerEssence Digital only future is all about controlling future distribution and to kill off the resell market. They want to be able to sell a new gamer the same game down the road at the price they want instead of lil timmy going on ebay or finding it at $20 in a local retailer

    Enterprise pricing teams have people watching competitors all day. Small sellers can't compete with that. Built Bidaptive to fix it. AI agents that monitor your listings across Amazon, eBay, Shopify and adjust prices in real time when the market moves. Now you can.

  • JimmyWinrar
    Jimmy Nyström (@JimmyWinrar) reported

    When $GME acquires another large block of these call options and issues shares to fund their exercise, $GME holders could effectively receive $EBAY exposure at a steep discount to the proposed buyout price. Call it dilution if you want. The end result may still be control. The more interesting possibility is that @ryancohen never expected—or even wanted, the eBay board to accept the initial offer. A rejection creates the justification for a more aggressive, openly hostile strategy. If that was the plan from the beginning, this was never a failed bid. It was the opening move.

  • ConwayYen
    Conway (@ConwayYen) reported

    @Longhorndaddyo @TheRealRormar It was priced in already. Had been for weeks. You can expect 10 cents of movement on GME for every $1 that eBay moves up or down. Real issue is deal feasibility and uncertainty. Likely need a co-investor(s) to be named for that uncertainty to disappear.

    the ugly web dev history, frontend. I was ignorant of JavaScript and frontend tech, from 1999 to 2010. am a web backend dev in 1998. back then, professional programers sneer JavaScript (and php). except, those big corp actually need to use it sans choice, such as gmail, google map, amazon, ebay. (the need to update page sans reloading the whole page.) Only when Node.js in 2009 By Ryan Dahl, changed things. It introduced the async, which puzzled and derided by most programers. (async, a pain in the ***. One of the worst thing in programing language history, still so today, even with latest await etc. Reason is because js is single threaded. Async is a pretend fix on this concurrency issue.) In 2010 js did not have a library system. (nor did php, scheme lisp, for the first 10 years of their life. emacs lisp has no module/namespace to this day.) Commonjs and amdjs module system mess got introduced in the wild. A very complicated mess, which created concepts like bundlers (browserify, webpack), code repo and package manager (bower, npm), task runners (gulp). npm is a corp greed, designed so that 1 line code is considered a lib, to promote its popularity. Then in 2015, js finally had some basic features, such as real local scoped variable (let), real dictionary/hashtable/map data structure. but for reason, the JavaScript committee refused a “use new js”. (google chrome dev got stun by a “use strict”.) So, one thousands warts of js, stay in js. (such as var, use strict, string is utf16 and all methods cant deal with emoji, no real array masking as magical object with magical length. etc.) JavaScript landscape, is really 30 years of **** pile due to a in-10-days mistake. But cpp is worse.

    @ebay Hi! I need assistance with a return for an Authenticity Guarantee item that your Automated Assistant refuses to escalate to someone live. The issue is I purchased 2-cards that failed the "authentication" process due to a miscategorized item. Now i can't get ebay to help

    @ToddsNerdCave I had trouble just finding them on ebay. A while back. Probably the best option

    As an ebay seller im going to start keeping people updated on where the market seems to be for stuff, whats selling whats not selling , issues coming etc, i think there has to be a voice of truth in this maze of flipping and maybe help save some people FOMO money

  • Tortugo

    A vendor told me their slab prices are strictly based on eBay comps. When I suggested we subtract the 13.25% eBay fee since we're dealing directly, they shut it down and said, 'We don't work that way.' 😑

  • Catscollecttcg
    cats collectibles tcg (@Catscollecttcg) reported

    @CardGameNomad Idk again talking and watching these people there is two types and neither get affected this way. Either 1) Like you are saying the price drops and they imminently PANIC sell at the next weekends card show and move it all again at a loss but prob not much different than Rudy or 2) have enough money to like a stock say "EH" and throw it in the warehouse for 5+ years and it becomes x3. I see your argue and do agree with you but its like when people say if we didnt buy japanese boxes the price would come down but thats just not true. We are usually the cheapest, if me, sakura, dot, ETC closed shop you would be stuck buying from eBay at higher prices and less transparency.

    @BoilerPaulie @ValueAddedRS @ryancohen Actually far worse. If your senior team needs people to dumb it down for them, that means the senior team can’t handle complexity. eBay, quite literally, led by dumb dumbs.

    Fourth, you handled the first instance quickly and professionally. The second instance ebay laid the blame at the feet of PSA being backed up. That is NOT my problem and totally irrelevant to the fact you released funds to my bank account and clawed them back a month later.

    @EveryoneKnws1 @visionergeo Have a look on eBay... TU-95 tail section. Better still drive down to Wildberries

    the cb750 is running now, but there's one thing i can't find. the rear master cylinder bracket for a 1982 cb750f. the one that holds the rear brake master cylinder to the frame. discontinued from honda. not on vintagecb750. nowhere on ebay. spent two hours scrolling forums. found a guy in canada with the same problem, his rear wheel parts were "currently unavailable" too . another guy spent a year looking for rear-sets for his 79 cb750f dohc, and bought parts that didn't fit . bikes and code. same lesson, sometimes the hardest part isn't fixing it. it's finding the part. anyone have a lead on this bracket or know a custom fab shop?👇

    The first item listed on eBay was a broken laser pointer! (It was sold)

    @LVCabChronicles Did you take the pictures in a public place? If so, you own the rights. There is no expectation of privacy. If you try and monetize them . Like printing them off and selling copies on eBay . You might run into some issues.

    DE'RON 🌞 (@deronworld) reported

    @TainoYoruba well the one i had was made in 1996 and the one I just got was made in 2001, so it may have been because it was old, but I also looked into it and it was known to have some mechanical issues and also opened it up and it was filthy 😭 so I just got a serviced one from eBay.

  • WorthPoint
    WorthPoint, Corp. (@WorthPoint) reported

    WorthPoint Vault launched July 1. We sat down with the Senior Product Manager who built it. Shelley Ball came to WorthPoint as a former eBay employee, seller, and picker — someone who has lived the exact problem Vault was designed to solve. She knows what it feels like to have a collection with no documentation.

    @Sergbytes @eBay_UK Same for me. Somebody got an absolute bargain because no one could bid. It’s clearly some eBay issue.

    We will be forming a union for employees of Goodwill to counteract the problem of CEOs making the lion share of the profits on the backs of local communities while putting smaller eBay sellers and disabled seniors out of work. They can either raise wages or face us. @GoodwillSC

    @neptombz @pettanplanet Well, I haven’t had that experience. There’s even a little market on eBay for replacing them, it’s such a widespread problem.

  • glockenspiel267
    Yolo (@glockenspiel267) reported

    @cell0phan3 These I got from Goods Republic! I’ve order from them about 89 times now and I’ve never had an issue, and there’s free shipping! You also can find some stuff on EBay and Mercari, but Mercari will probably be the cheapest if you’re on a budget

  • RFWaves101

    @borgranta @peter_adderton To buy a professional box you are looking at 30 to 40K and you should have professional training on how to use it and a basic understanding of what you are looking at. eBay might have some. Viavi is the most common carriers use. Again unless you have a lot of extra money I would not invest in something like that just to find something that the carriers will find on their own if there is a problem affecting them.
