    @KXAN_News It's becoming like eBay: used, imperfect items marked down 5% from brand-new prices. "That hoodie may still be new at the mall- but yours is missing the strings, has a hole in the back and a stain on the front- plz tell me how you think you deserve $58 for this"

    Jeffcoly | ZarGates (@Jeffcoly) reported

    @WSJ Sales $780–800M vs $972M a year ago (Switch 2 comp, store closures, France exit). Operating income still jumped to $150–170M from $66M.Net income $290–310M includes about $238M of eBay-related gains and a ~$75M digital-asset loss. Cash is down to ~$5.06B after converting the eBay derivative into 43.4M shares. Shrink-the-store retail plus a balance-sheet company.

    @clarkknowscards @phatjer300 @OnlyCharizard If you select “buyer requested cancellation” it will not ding your eBay account. All the other options from the drop down menu do. I lost top rated seller once for cancelling just 2 orders within a couple months.

    Former CEO of PayPal + Inuit Bill Harris on Moneywise today. He broke down his portfolio and expenses (and what it was like working w/ Elon + thiel. - Net worth: ~$100m. Divorce cut it roughly in half - ~$50m in operating companies he's starting, ~$25m diversified securities, ~$25m bonds. No PE/hedge/alts - "absurd fees" - PayPal/eBay exit: personally "more than 20 million, less than 50" - Personal Capital: sold to Empower for $825m with $23b AUM; his take was north of $100m post-tax - New venture: ~$10m of his own money in - Total annual burn: ~$70-80k all in, property tax included ("well less than a hundred thousand bucks") - No mortgage (cottage paid off), no car, bikes to work - Owned a ton of stuff (houses, cars, planes). Sold it all because it took too much time to maintain.

    @VirtuallyMarti Problem with this is it forces people to buy pins they may not even want just to trade. Lessens the chance of people who actually want them getting them due to people buying them up-- many who are those same Ebay people.

    @LLMJunky @stevenharms I don’t sell much on eBay but almost every tech item I’ve had scammer issues. Luckily I didn’t lose any money and they were fairly low value items in the 100-300 range. I would not trust selling a multi thousand dollar item there.

  • Honest_HODL
    Tripp (@Honest_HODL) reported

    @LefterisJP Yeah the VAT thing is terrible. I had small online shop (side job), sold 90% to other EU countries. €10k is nothing, even for a small shop. I wouldn't be able to afford a website cart that does that, unless ebay/amazon does it for you. The new packaging law is also a killer. It's not about more EU, in fact, less EU is needed and countries start competing again with each other and fix their own bureaucratic mess.

    @tahiniok Yes it's called the AuraTone phone antenna. I you can pick one up on eBay from the manufacturer bypassing me and saving yourself some money. I don't want you to pay extra with me if money is an issue that is why it's open source. I have a post on who I go through somewhere.

  • therlybadglfer
    The Really Bad Golfer (@therlybadglfer) reported

    @eBay why do you allow terrible people like this on your platform? He replies to feedback with threats and stalking (when I ran a background check), brings in users family's (you have a 10 year old), deflects any blame or responsibility, and it just horrible. You should kick him off the platform.

    @laralogan Goodwill was established to train unemployed or undereducated men to repair items for resale. Now they don't accept broken items that need repair. And they have learned that they can make more money reselling stuff on eBay than in stores.

    @clairevo @bot My @Bot use case: set it loose on my garage of dead electronics. It IDs every model, digs up repair guides and parts, checks eBay prices, and hands me a 'fix or sell' list. A second bot lists the sell pile. My junk drawer becomes a side hustle while I sleep

    Elementa Graphics (@elementaGFX) reported

    I’ve started a daily series on projects that already have something real but the presentation still hasn’t caught up to its potential. Project Breakdown #72 — @ChaseCardApp ChaseCard is a live aggregator. You name the card. Set, language, condition, budget. They watch every marketplace. Beta is open. Alerts are already going out. Umbreon 38% under. Gengar 45% under. That is a real loop. The page does not show the loop. It shows a still of a deal and a link to apply. A collector already hunting grails will get it. A stranger sees another TCG promo card. Two problems. The watch is invisible. The product is not “Umbreon is cheap.” The product is ChaseCard catching it across shops while you sleep. That is motion. A price still is what eBay already posts. Motion is the alert hitting, the listing opening, the card matching the chase. The feed is one template. Photo. Percent. Link. Fine for proof. Weak as a brand. A ChaseCard frame should be the chase itself. Card. Target price. Hit. Same rails every alert. Then the beta link has a face. They already have the deals. The page should look like the watcher, not like the listing. See you on the next one.

    @JesseBallCards @eBay @CardPurchaser Of course, and eBay is great about removing if there was an error or it’s just a disgruntled buyer but you did everything right. But I’m going to guess you didn’t ship something or cancelled an order to save yourself a few bucks. That violates TOS & will stay with you.

    GameStop $GME shares their preliminary Q2 earnings - Net sales: $780M to $800M, down from $972.2M - Operating income: $150M to $170M, up from $66.4M - Net income: $290M to $310M, up from $168.6M - Cash and marketable securities: $5.050B to $5.070B, down from $8.694B During the quarter they converted their eBay derivative position into a straight equity stake. As of August 1 they held about 43.4 million shares of eBay, worth roughly $4.947 billion. Sales fell about 19%. Management gave three reasons: last year had the Nintendo Switch 2 launch, they closed stores on purpose, and they sold off the France business. Sales dropped almost $200 million and operating income still MORE THAN DOUBLED. Net income of roughly $300 million against operating income of roughly $160 million is not from selling games. About $238 million of it came from gains on the eBay derivative and equity position, and that was partly offset by about a $75 million loss on digital assets and related receivables. Currently up 3% in premarket $18.46

    GameStop just amended the convertible-note exchange. They were going to pay the whole $1.4B in stock, using a 35-day average price. Today they cut that short. Noteholders now get about 55.5 million GME shares and about $358 million in cash. That’s 55.5 million new shares going to the funds that held the 2030 and 2032 notes - not a public offering. They also dropped preliminary Q2 numbers in the same filing: 👉 sales down versus last year’s Switch 2 quarter 👉 operating profit up 👉 cash now in the $5.05–5.07B range after they converted the eBay position into about 43.4 million actual eBay shares September 3rd is the date to watch. That’s when this is slated to close. 👀 cc: @gamestop @ryancohen @TheRoaringKitty $GME

    $GME 
Preliminary Q2: Sales expected $780–800M (down YoY on store closures and prior-year launches). Operating income $150–170M and net income $290–310M, boosted by eBay investment gains. Strong balance sheet remains.

  • cardthrone
    Card Throne (@cardthrone) reported

    I run Card Throne with a handful of Grok Bots. Each one owns a job. They don't all sit in one chat answering random questions. Scout does sourcing. Japanese inventory, carts, what to buy next. Grading plays and margins off my actual fees and costs. It never checks out. I still have to say purchase. Build is engineering. It only works on Card Throne Room, our seller tool. Scan a stack of cards, list to eBay, inventory management. When it's real code, it summons a cloud agent with pstack /poteto-mode. Throne runs the storefronts. Brings me the issues that actually have to move that day. Ledger does the books. Payouts, fees, receipts, the monthly P&L. Sentry monitors for any Card Throne Room bugs and pings Build if something needs fixed. Chief sits on top so I'm not pinging six bots to find out whose job a thing is. I still make the final calls.

    rack$ (@mnstacks) reported

    He built an autonomous Grok Bot named Reaper, handed it his credit card debt and told it to pay off his credit card debt for him. He gave the bot its own computer in the cloud and access to his email. Then he basically said: “This debt is your problem now. Don’t ask me for money. Just report back every night.” What Reaper actually did • canceled old subscriptions he’d forgotten • talked the credit card company into a lower interest rate • moved most of the balance to a 0% card • got a couple of charges refunded • sold his unused PlayStation and monitors on eBay • put every extra dollar it found toward the debt I spoke to him and he said he plans to work on more upgrades and refine its function He is fully onboard and will join the community to tell us about his future plans Ca;

    I really don’t have a problem with @eBay but in the 4 months I’ve been on there my account was frozen for 30 days, back to normal, and now my funds are on hold for another 30 days. Customer service says there’s no reason for the holds other than making sure there’s no issue with the orders, even though they’ve all been delivered fine. Pretty ******.
