    @TCGPokePlug @eBay Whatnot is the closest site to take down eBay, but sadly it's filled with scammers, and that turns off buyers. Until we get a legitimate alternative eBay and their fees, and their shipping scams, and their counterfeit items will unfortunately have to suffice.

    Hi @AskeBay — I need urgent escalation on Case 5374687210. eBay ruled against me stating I "didn't provide tracking in time" — but my eBay message records show I provided signed delivery confirmation 19 days before the buyer even opened the case. I have official Chunghwa Post CN08 documentation and a Poste Italiane signed receipt. This is a factual error in the ruling, not a policy disagreement. Frontline CS and the disputes team have both refused to engage. I need this reviewed by someone with actual authority. Seller ID: Rolf_Racing_Ver.2. How do I get this escalated properly?

    @amazon Why do you allow companies to use a Shipping Company that is known for Scamming Associations? Jcex❓Effectively tracking JCEX shipments is generally not possible, as many Redditors report JCEX tracking to be unreliable and often associated with scams. The consensus among users is that JCEX is frequently used by fraudulent sellers, leading to fake tracking updates, packages marked as delivered but never received, and significant difficulty in getting accurate information or resolving issues. Common Issues with JCEX Tracking •False Delivery Notifications: Many users report that their JCEX tracking updates show the package as "delivered" when it has not arrived, or even shows delivery to a completely different location. "Same thing happened to me, it claimed it was delivered but it never arrived it’s a total scam ask for a refund"
. •Irregular and Suspicious Updates: Tracking information often appears to be fabricated, with updates occurring at unusual intervals (e.g., every three days) or showing identical timestamps for different packages supposedly going to different locations. "And why the tracking updates are so weird on every 3 days?"
. •Lack of Detailed Information: The tracking often provides minimal useful information, making it impossible to determine the package's actual whereabouts or the local carrier responsible for final delivery. "no local forwarding number there is absolutely no information i cant even see who has my package"
. Difficulty in Resolving Issues •Unresponsive Customer Service: Redditors frequently mention that JCEX is difficult or impossible to contact directly for support. "I also tried calling their contact number but the number isn’t registered or working."
. •Seller Involvement in Scams: Many instances suggest that sellers intentionally use JCEX with fraudulent intentions, relying on the unreliable tracking to string buyers along until buyer protection periods expire. "JCEX is currently being used by scammers, a seller (scammer) asked for more money to "release" this package that shows as delivered but of course was never delivered"
. •Reliance on Marketplace Refunds: The most common resolution for unreceived items shipped via JCEX is to seek a refund from the marketplace (e.g., eBay, Amazon, Walmart) where the purchase was made. "I never got it but I was able to get my money back from eBay because I also used PayPal to pay for my order"
. Recommendations for Buyers •Exercise Extreme Caution: Be very wary of purchases that indicate shipping via JCEX, especially from unfamiliar or newly established sellers. "Use extreme cautious with JCEX tracking via online marketplace merchants"
. •Monitor Buyer Protection Timelines: If a purchase is shipped via JCEX, keep a close eye on the refund and return policies of the marketplace to ensure you can file a claim if the package doesn't arrive. "I contacted eBay asking them to extend the product guarantee based on what the seller had said, eBay denied me. I then appealed and got my refund, as the eBay rep said in their message that it does show as delivered and that they could see it was still in transit."
. •Consider Alternative Shipping: If possible, choose sellers who use reputable shipping carriers with transparent and reliable tracking. "If it is JCEX it is fraud."

    @heistypokerdlr @CardPurchaser Singapore I’ve never had any problems with shipping and if it’s through eBay where you ship to their hub you should be fine. How much is it if you don’t mind me asking

    Running the numbers with Grok, GameStop is over-leveraged buying eBay. Hear me out - if they acquired Chewy now, this gets them the free cash flow needed to support that loan while Ryan turns around eBay. Structured correctly, this allows them to hit the $32 Warrant strike price. Chewy is in an extremely advantageous position for this right now. Their stock price is a steal, they are largely done with the major CapEx for growing their distribution centers (which can be further leveraged in NewCo), and have strong and growing Free Cash Flow. The price is right. The cash flow supports the loan. Ryan can focus on eBay when he gets it. And he can manage/improve Chewy in his sleep. CRITICALLY - $GME will be volatile after an acquisition like this, and Ryan can issue an ATM into a squeeze. The big squeeze comes later. A small one in the interim can, with an ATM, basically let Ryan buy Chewy for free.

    Ryan Cohen keeps criticizing eBay's board, but maybe GameStop shareholders deserve some answers first. Since becoming chairman, GME is down 65% while eBay has outperformed. Less time attacking others, more time creating shareholder value. $GME @ryancohen

    BREAKING: @PayPal winds down venture arm as fintech giant restructures under new CEO PayPal is shuttering its 10-year-old venture team amid a broader corporate shakeup, according to five sources familiar with the matter. The fund’s headcount has shrunk from more than 10 in late 2025 to now only two, according to an archived version of the website for PayPal Ventures. Meanwhile, the page that listed the venture unit’s employees is no longer visible. PayPal is also exploring the sale of some of its positions on the secondary market and has hired the investment bank Jefferies to help with potential transactions, said one source familiar with the matter, who declined to be named while talking about private business dealings. PayPal established its venture arm in 2016, one year after eBay spun off the fintech into an independent company. Since then, PayPal Ventures, which invests off the fintech’s balance sheet, has backed more than 80 companies across three funds that total more than $850 million. Some of its more prominent bets include the fintech Plaid, the crypto custodian Anchorage Digital, and its exits include Bill com’s acquisition of the startup Divvy in 2021. The performance of the venture fund’s portfolio contributed 10 cents to PayPal’s $1.53 earnings per share in the fourth quarter of 2025, as opposed to subtracting four cents in 2024, according to a February earnings release.

    @BackJogle @Baron_Revilgaz 1) The dilution doesn’t matter to me. Sure, my shares are worth less in the short-term, but I immediately have ownership of more earnings per share because the Ebay deal is earnings accretive. Additionally, I’m not worried about Cohen’s ability to return shareholder capital because I saw him do it with Chewy. 2) The stagnation is transient. The entire gaming industry has been stagnating compared to the rapid growth of the 2010s. This is not an indicator of the long term economic potential, in my view. I play video games and have been studying the market for a long time. I am bullish on video games and the products that derive from them. 3) There are no governance issues that concern me. Cohen has been doing exactly what he said he was going to do and the investment thesis has not changed much since 2020. The only thing different is we have more evidence to say that he can further achieve his goals. The pay package is essentially a performance based stock option. It’s modeled after the way Elon is compensated. I am for this and would run my own company this way. This type of structure incentivizes good, accountable stewardship.

    David Wight (@TheRockOracle1) reported

    @tedfrank @ScottFriedman3 You need to re-read it, because it's clear they need to offer comparable or better tickets first ...and they use the word offer for refund which means the person has the option to turn down the refund and make them comply with getting them tickets that are comparable or better. And by the way StubHub was a client of mine before they were bought out by EBAY and that's exactly how it is supposed to play out with the priority. If you're not satisfied with the replacements tickets only turn can they offer refund.

    Before I sell the camera I have to download all the photos off the SD cards. Apparently I used it for more than eBay. But I can't do it. I don't know which one of my disorders is causing it but I can't figure out how to transfer them or even where to transfer them to. That scares me. I used to easily be able to do that. My old PC is slow but still works.

    $GME $EBAY GameStop can bypass or dismantle eBay's poison pill by employing specific, aggressive corporate governance strategies. A poison pill (shareholder rights plan) does not completely stop a takeover; it simply forces the bidder to negotiate with the board or take the battle directly to the shareholders. To push the acquisition through, GameStop and CEO Ryan Cohen can use three primary legal and financial avenues. 1. Launch a Proxy Contest to Replace the Board •The Strategy: GameStop can nominate its own slate of directors for eBay's next annual meeting. •The Mechanism: If eBay shareholders elect GameStop's nominees, the new board can vote to redeem (cancel) the poison pill. •The Outcome: Once the new board removes the pill, GameStop can safely execute its $125-per-share tender offer without triggering severe dilution. 2. File a Lawsuit Challenging the Pill •The Strategy: GameStop can sue the eBay board in court (typically Delaware Chancery Court). •The Argument: GameStop would argue that the board is breaching its fiduciary duties by using the pill to block a premium offer solely to entrench themselves. •The Outcome: If the court finds the eBay board's defense disproportionate, a judge can order the board to pull down the pill, forcing them to let shareholders vote on the deal. 3. Condition the Tender Offer on Board Approval •The Strategy: GameStop can launch a public tender offer directly to eBay shareholders but add a "minimum tender condition." •The Mechanism: GameStop states it will only buy the shares if a supermajority (e.g., 70% or 80%) of eBay shareholders agree to sell, and the eBay board removes the pill. •The Pressure: If the vast majority of eBay investors tender their shares, the extreme pressure usually forces the board to dismantle the pill and negotiate, fearing massive shareholder lawsuits if they refuse. The Underlying Fuel: The July 7 Vote To make any of these strategies credible, GameStop must pass its own July 7, 2026 proposals. Increasing its authorized shares to 2.5 billion gives GameStop the financial ammunition to buy a massive stake or offer an overwhelmingly attractive stock-and-cash deal that eBay shareholders cannot ignore.
