Tripp (@TrippLMT) reported@BigDieselSports @eBay Im getting the same error from the android app and can not get into my selling hub.

John Lee (@Actuarial_Tutor) reported@Decentguyusedto Gauntlet was the GOAT. Loved that game. I regret not buying an old Gauntlet machine that was for sale on ebay many years ago. It may have caused trouble in our marriage having this take up room in our house, but...GAUNTLET!

Smart Redhead (@clinger7233) reported@eBay Whats up with your selling page, I can't get into my selling page. Says internal system error. Fix it! I already Uninstalled, restarted and reinstalled. It was working fine, now nothing. I've got stuff to ship!

Karl (@MHFulltimer) reported@seizuresalad That is why I have stopped all streaming services and the TV licence (UK). I now buy DVD/BluRay and rip to my own media server. I ended up buying two pallets of DVDs from a charity clearance firm with over 7000 DVDs. took a while to sort them out and dispose of the ones I didn't want but my viewing for the next decade or two is sorted. I do still buy odd films and DVD box sets off ebay. I prefer to own not rely on streaming services these days. I was halfway through a season and it got pulled due to licensing issues. That was the final straw. The downside is I cannot take part in conversations about new releases but that is a small price to pay.

Dan Moore (@DanMoor93974508) reportedJust like to say Ever since businesses started using AI, my life has become hell. I cannot buy anything at a decent price online. AI will either say my non-standard address is an illegitimate address or it doesn't exist, and it sways many, many good deals away from me where they refuse to ship to my non-standard address, thinking it's incorrect, and I end up not being able to buy on eBay 90% of the time. I can get three out of 10 packages delivered if I'm lucky; it's very discouraging, and I miss out on 90% of all the good deals. Not just on eBay, it's on Amazon, on Walmart, on all e-commerce stores because they're all having problems with this damn AI mingling in our addresses and making non-standard addresses illegitimate addresses, and it's hell for the poor, especially the elderly poor who have a hard time communicating I wish AI would get bumped, nuked, or destroyed. I'm an old-school computer tech from the '90s still managing, maintaining, servicing, and repairing my computers and devices. I use several Linux distros, which I find a lot more convenient, useful, and trustworthy than any Microsoft product or version of Microsoft Windows with all of the updates and manipulation to control the people's systems. It has destroyed my faith in Microsoft, and just when it looked like life was becoming something worth living and a technical world turning into something useful and enjoyable, they would have to drag AI, the real monster, into our lives, and today it's a living hell, and I wish somebody could hear my words. AI has a way of making sure nobody ever hears our voices anymore or hears me. I've noticed time and time again it's got control of people, and nobody's paying attention to what AI is really doing to people who don't have the abilities to properly articulate or communicate—people who are not so healthy physically and/or mentally or not schooled much don't spell or type very well, like me. Even though I am pretty tech-savvy, I'm nearly 70 years old and struggling these days now more than ever before. If there were ever a time I would be tempted to leave this world, if I didn't worry about where I would spend eternity, it would be easy, and I cringe at getting older or staying alive in this world the way it is now or what it's becoming to me and other human beings; it's a real nightmare that many who are like me are living in today.

Dan Wolfe 🐺 (@danthewolfe) reportedPeople are selling these on eBay for a few hundred dollars. Is it possible you could find a way to make a quick buck without breaking kids hearts. Two giant thumbs down. I hope @vancanadians gets those kids two bobble heads.

ChrisJH1878 (@chrisjhocking22) reported@CarrMillite @RoyalMail Royal Mail are shocking. I sold something on eBay. Packed it, sent it and Royal Mail lost it. Refused to reimburse me and said it was eBay’s problem. EBay say it’s Royal Mails issue. I had to refund the parcel even though it was not my fault. I’m down £70 now

Collector of Mess (@VintageCards2) reportedI spent the entire day at home yesterday. Like didn’t leave once. I legit don’t know the last time that’s happened. 10-20-30 years. I cooked, cleaned, bought coins on eBay, and took 3-4 naps. Might go down as the greatest day I’ve had.

Chris Matthias (parody) (@thetrickster88) reported@AcmePacks @eBay On your phone go to app settings and you can drill down into notification settings and you might be able to turn off notifications specifically for live events like I did.

G (@gianmt) reported@askebay I am completely locked out of my eBay account. When trying to sign in, the security system prompts a legacy verification screen asking me to call the phone number 02 006 31 268, which is disconnected There is no option to choose, creating an endless loop.

Kyle Hessling (@KyleHessling1) reportedQwen 3.8 Flash Next is an absolutely masterful architecture. I just resurrected a dinosaur build with it and got 18.4tps without any optimizations or spec decoding. Just wait until you hear the hardware stack: Ryzen 2700, old mining rig with a single 3080, 48 GB of completely mismatched sticks of DDR4. Tried running Qwen 3.8 Flash Next on the 3080 split to system ram, Ngram page file on the SSD, and got 2.4 tokens per second. Just wanted to try and see, but certainly not usable. Slapped the Nvidia V100 in with the 3080, added a bunch of layers to it (this is over PCIE 3 x8 btw, which is crazy slow) Immediately jumped to 18.4tps! Layers on the 3080, layers on the v100, layers in RAM, N gram on the SSD! This is without MTP, and the first result I got. Running Q1 but could probably fit a much higher quant now that we got the Frankenstein offload setup working. @Alibaba_Qwen is making efficiency and distributed computing changes that are completely unmatched. I can't wait to see where MTP and Dflash will take this on old hardware I just had lying around, plus a v100. Jerryrigs are about to become a lot more relevant! You could genuinely get a v100 off of eBay for $650 and slap it in the spare slot of your old gaming rig to do this!

POKEGRID CARD CO. (@POKEGRIDCC) reported@radioofam @CardPurchaser I've had the same issue happen a few times. Unfortunately, some buyers will receive the card and take advantage of this. Calling eBay customer support is the best way to handle this situation. eBay will refund the buyer on their end and you will be able to keep the funds.

Liam (@liamiv7) reported6 cylinder Mac Pros hang sideways in a wire rack, cooled by 1 server fan bolted straight to the shelf above. No case. No dust filter. Just raw air crossing 6 towers Apple stopped selling in 2019, the fan spinning loud enough to hear from the next room. He bought them dead. 90 dollars each, pulled for scrap on eBay, shipped in bubble wrap that still smelled like a warehouse. Fixed 4 in a garage lit by 1 bare bulb. Networked them into 1 render node, cables zip-tied to the same wire shelving that used to hold his gym bag. Freelance editors on Fiverr queue jobs on the farm now. 15 dollars an hour. 3 clients a week. 900 dollars a month, off hardware everyone else called e-waste and left curbside. The fan never stops. Neither does the queue.

AiMind (@AIMind_Ai) reported1 evening turns an $80 office laptop from eBay into a home server that saves $1,500 a year. Most people shop for hardware first. The hardware has been sitting in a corporate closet for 4 years. An EliteBook or Latitude from 2017 goes for $80 to $130 stripped. 4 cores, 8GB of RAM, and it came with its own screen, keyboard, and battery backup. No rack server has any of those. Debian netinst is 755MB. Uncheck the desktop in the installer, and the system lands under 2GB on disk and idles near 200MB of RAM. Leave it checked, and you burn 1.5GB running a wallpaper you will see 0 times. CasaOS goes on top. 1 command, and in 3 minutes you have Docker, a web dashboard, and an app store. Plex, Immich, qBittorrent, Home Assistant, 1 click each. Then the part everyone skips. The IP goes in by hand. 192.168.1.17. Netmask 255.255.255.0. Gateway 192.168.1.1. DNS 1.1.1.1. Never DHCP. A router reboot at 4 in the morning hands the server a new address, and by breakfast every container is pointing at nothing. That is the morning most first home labs get unplugged for good. Then 1 line in logind so it keeps running with the lid shut. $80 spent. 1 evening. 1 machine that replaces $1,500 a year.

Abe Strongjohn (@AbeStrongjohn) reportedi found the first few issues of the OG run of CF at a fleamarket after EVS was trying to start **** with my friends, I put them up on ebay just to get rid of them not only did I lose money, ebay eventually had to force the winning bidder to actually pay

Limited Edition (@limitedcards_nj) reported@artistsbox This has to be one of the worst takes I’ve ever seen. First off they are pieces of **** criminals who should have their hands cut off if they are caught. As for the people cheering this on, if that is the mindset that one has, building their card collection is the least of their problems they will have in life. The hobby is a thousand times bigger than it ever was in terms of exposure and money, simply because of the digital age we live in and how easy it is to sell stuff on eBay and other online marketplaces. Add in the celebrity collectors, and it’s never coming back down to earth, in my opinion. Everything has gone up exponentially. My next door neighbor, who’s a few years older than me (we both went to high school in the ’90s), just bought a loaded Jeep Wrangler for his kid for $77k. His father bought him a brand new Wrangler in 1990 or ’91 for $14k. That’s just the reality of the times we’re living in. In some cases, people simply have a ton more disposable income now than at any point in history. The reality is you’re never going to be able to buy a box of Chrome Hobby for $100 again with even a long-shot chance of hitting multiple $100k+ card or, in some cases, million-dollar cards. And if Topps does wind up putting out a product in the $50–75-a-box range, no one would want it. It would get stripped immediately, and they’d print 50,000 cases of it.

Brohei Brohtani (@MondayHeinz) reported@phillycardboard Two things here… One, people don’t understand how a business runs. If a card is going for $1000 and they give you $850, they are banking on the fact that card does not go down in value. But they also have to pay for the building and the employees and all of that. And eBay takes 10-13%, and don’t need to deal with shipping etc. Two, this is awesome because I live in St. Louis and I love to have another option!

atriumm (@watriumm) reported@Kidskull51 Ebay make 13% off each sale, why would they take them down? lmaooo goofy

Anish Moonka (@anishmoonka) reportedAnn Makosinski was 15 when a friend in the Philippines told her she had failed a year of school. Her family could not afford electricity, so there was no light to study by after dark, and the daylight hours were not enough. Makosinski, in Victoria, British Columbia, had been playing with Peltier tiles since a grade seven science project. A Peltier tile makes electricity when one face is hot and the other is cold. She ran the numbers on the heat coming off a human palm and found there was more than enough. Then the problem. The tiles gave plenty of power and almost no voltage, nowhere near what an LED needs. She bought more on eBay, redesigned the circuit, and put transformers in to lift the voltage into range. The body of the flashlight is a hollow aluminium tube. Your hand warms the outside of the tiles. Air moving through the middle keeps the inside cool. The gap between those two temperatures is the entire power supply, and it holds a steady beam for about twenty minutes. No batteries. No charging. No sunlight required, so it works at night in a house with no grid connection, which was the whole point. She won her category at the Google Science Fair in 2013 and went on to build a mug that harvests the waste heat of a cooling drink to charge a phone. A flashlight is a solved problem, unless the thing you cannot get hold of is a battery. Her friend needed light after sunset and had a working pair of hands the whole time.
