  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.

  @eBay you need to do better. Your customer support doesn’t work. How do I speak to you? I just tried your automated service and it’s broken.

  @CanonCsa @zebular0 True. Issue I have with that for starters is not a lot of people like GameStop. GameStops reputation is still ****. People will still go to eBay over GameStop marketplace.

  @bigern_ern @Rivian I got this fob when we bought Mevie so I don't know how much. I bet you can buy off ebay. I can't really get into details but we discovered we got a fob for another truck. We tried to pair what we got with Mevie and....she's....got more parts than stock so the mechanic couldn't pair it yet. This is the type at the shop that enjoys difficult issues and even he looked like he got finished with the SATs after trying to figure what was there. So... I'm deep in another rabbit hole and like the mechanic thoroughly am enjoying the unicorn.

  From 2019 onwards, $EBAY has a pretty impressive rap sheet: - 2019: Execs ordered a stalking campaign against blogger couple the Steiners. Sent live bugs, a pig mask, and a funeral wreath to their home. GPS tracked their car. CEO Wenig ("take her down") walked with $57M severance. Never charged. - 2022: 7 employees convicted. Ringleader Jim Baugh sentenced to 57 months in federal prison. - 2023: DOJ sues eBay for selling 343K emissions defeat devices and illegal pesticides. Potential $1.9B exposure. - 2024: eBay pays $3M criminal fine (statutory max) to DOJ for the stalking. Same month, pays $59M for facilitating illegal pill press sales. - 2026: Steiner civil suit ($466M punitive ask) settled, then collapsed. Trial set for Jan 2027. Multiple DOJ actions. 7 convictions. Billions in exposure. A decade of self-inflicted chaos. Utter waste of shareholder capital, while the business and the margins have become stagnant at best, and way behind at worst. Is this board and CEO really the best to run this iconic American brand?

  @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."

  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.

  @ebay - you need to fix this and keep the authentication team accountable for the lack of attention and care put into proccessing authentications and sending them to customers. This is incredibly disappointing and I will escalate this to whoever is running this division of Ebay

  For as long as I can remember I’ve wanted to create a TCG When I was a kid, we used to take the Pokemon figures you could get from ebay like 150 fake pokemon 1” toys for $25 I used to make them have levels and states and make gyms and an elite four In my 20s I made a game very similar to how one piece turned out but I didn’t know much about game balance and I even got the first full set printed and we did a little “pre release” event. But printing is expensive and artwork etc; so I gave up The last 2 years I’ve been working on a TCG working on mechanics and how to do it, proof of this is @AQuarterRican actually printed over 600 cards, but very much still in the testing phase and it’s hard to find the time. But @SteeloAndKri of all people made me think of an idea I just never thought of. A Cats TCG? What if I took my original idea that I’ve been working on but build lore and cards around our brand? Now this isn’t “THE NEXT MAGIC KILLER” this is just a fun idea, and not TOO expensive, I can have packs made from Alibaba, korrie and I can pack them and sell them for like $1.99 a pack. I’m going to put my thoughts down below!

  @MGDTcards No real issues honestly. Only graded, only about 4 sellers on eBay and I limit the players. There’s quite a few guardrails, but since it’s a hot market the inventory is very liquid. I personally would only do graded since it’s a standardized system but no reason why it can’t do any card

  A lot of new people here, this one’s for you. 🚨How to stop losing money to eBay return scammers. They buy your clean, working item… then ship back a broken piece of junk & demand a full refund. I recently learned this $7.49 trick & it’s an absolute game changer: Grab a cheap UV security pen (the exact one I use from amazon is in the photo). Before you ship, write a unique personal code or mark in a hidden spot on the item. It’s completely invisible to the naked eye, but lights up under any blacklight. When the return comes back, just shine the light. No matching mark? That’s not your original item. Upload the before/after UV photos in your eBay case and watch your win rate skyrocket. 🚀 Pro tip: Make the code truly unique, your own handwriting style, a random symbol only you make. Something scammers can’t duplicate even if they know the method. Resellers: add this to your process TODAY. It will save you hundreds (or thousands) in the long run. Who’s trying this? Let me know in the comments if you’re adding UV marking to your process. Also, would love to hear your best return scam stories below! Happy selling! Let's grow!

  GM y'all! Here's the new project. I work on an SAR team and I have ATAK integrated with mesh on my phone but it's a pain to have to pull it out and look at it all the time while I'm working. So, new plan: Im going to find a cheap old GPS only Samsung Galaxy watch4 on eBay and use it to mirror my phones offline Google maps. I picked that watch because I need a smart watch that uses Wear OS because that will allow me to access and run actual Google maps natively within an app already designed to use them. Once I'm done I'll be able to have my watch running my location on gps and I just have to glance at my wrist. A lot less annoying than having to pull my phone out of a pouch or drop it down to look at it. Not a major problem by any means but fixing a small annoyance is still worth it.

  Is that like 8% sales tax? That's the biggest issue here, the 13% eBay cut has pretty much always been there, I feel like its payment for the 👀. So very often eBay is king!

  @TurbosLady9493 Lisa I love you so I want to take the time to follow up here. I think what concerns me is players have used scrips in gear, and in hats before this, a player has used it for a passed wash friend. The rules didn’t apply there. Now this is an issue, that’s what my point is. Is it really optional? I don’t see it when social pressure is pushed so hard to get these guys to conform. See giants pitcher who chose not to wear it on eBay he says. Headlines were made of rays players, dodgers, giants etc on not wearing. I’m not asking anyone to change their views, I think I’m just asking for mutual respect. Players shouldn’t feel socially obligated to deny the lord for anyone or anything, and title VII tells us that shouldn’t be a thing.

  @RetroCoast I bought a used personal hidden camera on eBay because I needed just the recorder portion for a well/bore camera. It came with an SD card that had been wiped but I started to wonder what the previous owner would use it for. I had software I used to recover from corrupted memory cards and gave it a shot. It took all night but the next day there were 4 separate video files recovered. I played the files one by one, it was a man filming his apartment tours, he had the camera hidden about chest level, it was all very boring, filling applications and talking to apartment managers. I said, what a waste of time and skimmed through the last video, at the end, something caught my eye, it was him getting into his car while swinging HIS PURSE into the passenger seat, he was mumbling to himself sounding discouraged, then he sat down into the driver's seat for the great reveal, dainty women's dress shoes, pumps or heels or whatever, hairy legs and a tight fitting dress! This DUDE was trying to get anyone to openly discriminate against him for being a freak, ultimately it didn't work so he sold his hidden camera system.
