  @davidonchainx For sure But why not buy CARDS Gacha is the big thing now, but the small piece of the pie in the future imo The marketplace has a chance to take meaningful share from eBay and other sites that charge ~15%, have shipping issues, fraud issues, etc Marketplace is how this goes to billions

  Let’s not panic about Proposal 4 failing at eBay’s annual meeting. It would only have been the easy way to bring the offer in front of eBay shareholders, by lowering the special meeting threshold to 10%. But the offer can still reach them through a Schedule TO, a tender offer filed directly with the SEC that bypasses the board entirely. To get there, though, one event is vital: the proposal we vote on as GameStop shareholders on July 7th, the increase in authorized shares from 1 billion to 2.5 billion. This is the most important near-term catalyst for the whole deal, since the $125 offer is split evenly between cash and GME stock, and the stock half simply doesn’t exist yet in sufficient quantity. GameStop is sitting near its current 1 billion authorized share ceiling, so without the increase, there aren’t enough shares to actually deliver the equity portion of the consideration. Regarding this, on June 8th GameStop filed a supplement to its proxy materials clarifying the voting standard for the share authorization proposal, and two things came out of it. First, the proposal is classified as a routine matter under NYSE rules. This matters because of how broker voting works. When a proposal is routine, brokers holding shares on behalf of retail clients can vote those shares at their own discretion even if the client gives no instruction. On non-routine matters, those uninstructed shares simply don’t get voted. GameStop’s retail base is enormous and notoriously slow to return voting instructions, so under a non-routine classification a huge block of shares would effectively sit out. Routine classification means brokers can vote that block, and historically broker discretionary votes lean toward management’s recommendation. Second, the supplement clarified that abstentions are not counted as votes cast, so they have no effect on the outcome. Only FOR and AGAINST votes count toward the threshold. This removes a common drag that sinks shareholder proposals where high abstention rates are driven by apathy or confusion. Put together, these two points meaningfully tilt the probability of passage in management’s favor. They don’t guarantee it, brokers vote according to their own policies and determined opposition can still organize, but the structural setup is favorable. Still learning. Still sharing. Not financial advice. $GME $EBAY

  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?

  2025 Topps Cosmic Chrome NFL Analysis Keeping this one shorter than usual as I have a ridiculous amount of analysis to do over the next few days. If you are a fan of Cosmic, you know what you're getting. This one has everything you expect from the brand. If you are not hip to the Cosmic game, you're getting a fantastic looking product with a cohesive theme, centered around rare inserts with autos being the cherry on top. Part 1: The Basics Cosmic NFL drop via EQL tomorrow- Friday June 19th. Drop price is $650/box. Well, that didn't take long. We have our first WTF. Though Cosmic is always popular, we really need to install some goalposts here. The NBA version of this product, with its epic rookie class, pre-sold at $580 but then took a ridiculous jump for release day to something like $750. It didn't take long for people to realize it's pretty easy to get massacred at that price. Prices remained stagnant from there. These can still be snagged for $800 on ebay. Topps is effectively attempting to put flippers out of business. And $650/box for a lackluster NFL class should make moves to accomplish that goal. Part 2: Production numbers Total cards in product: 4,632,600 Compare this to 2025 Cosmic NBA: 6,355,200 At least they made 27% less of this than the NBA version. As they should. Total Production by format: Hobby- 57,770 boxes (7,221 cases) In addition, we have what has come to be known as a Cosmic staple- the elusive Lunar Boxes. Extremely tough to hit, these "God boxes" are some of the most exciting and valuable chases in the hobby, and these are even better than usual. Typically, each PACK of a Lunar Box contains a blood-red Lunar Parallel /10 and a better chance at hits than a typical box. Based on odds, Lunar Boxes in NFL also contain 5 autos/box. Not a typo. They went from a "better chance at autos" to a full-blown auto extravaganza. Total Lunar boxes produced: ~138 This means your odds of landing a Lunar Box are 1 in ~420 boxes (1 in 52.5 cases) If you are lucky enough to pull one of these, you won't know until you crack the seal and notice the packs say "Lunar". At that point...take a deep breath. You have a decision to make. Those packs sell for a few hundred each, making an entire box worth maybe $6k give or take. Congrats, you won life that day. Part 3: Heat Map Here's what you can expect from a box of Cosmic NFL: 0.34 autos (1 in 3 boxes should contain an auto, or 2.7 autos/case.) 5.4 parallels 10.6 inserts 2.4 numbered cards Lunar Box: 5 autos 26.4 parallels 14.75 inserts 30.6 numbered cards An infinite amount of Aura. Now let's cut to the real chase- Rare Inserts. Cosmic is busting at the seams with rare inserts, and many of them are amazing. For Cosmic NFL, the rare insert list will include Light Years, Cosmic Dust, Cos-Play, Supernova, Starfractor, Planetarium, and the wildly popular Planetary Pursuits. I suppose we could also include Constellations in this, although they are technically parallels here. Your chances of pulling a rare insert from a box is better than your chance of pulling an auto. Combining all the rare inserts listed above, one of these should fall 1 in ~1.75 boxes, or 4.6 per case. 57% of boxes should contain a rare insert. Planetary Pursuits alone should fall 2.1 per case with ~47% being the most common variety, Sun. As far as the checklist goes, namely for Planetary Pursuits..I think it's solid. Maybe not amazing. I love that Mahomes has Planetaries. Those will hit hard. I have to wonder when Topps will get rights for Mahomes autos. I know I'm a homer being from KC and all, but the lack of Mahomes autos leaves a serious void in current licensed NFL products. Meanwhile Panini is laughing in their face and producing a product the price of a car that's basically all Mahomes autos. It's like trying to put a quick 10k miles on that rental car just because you can. Part 4: Value Map Based on drop pricing of $650. $/card: $8.13 $/parallel: $121.04 $/auto: $1,911.76 $/numbered card: $270.83 Part 5: What Would the Squatch Do? First let me clarify- I love me some Cosmic. Cosmic boxes are some of the most fun to rip in the hobby. They can also be a gigantic kick in the nuts. Not so long ago, when they were $300-$400, this was doable. At $650+, that fun turns to stress real quick. If I were planning to flip these, I'd be worried. They might do fine. Then again, they might not. I'm sure the "La Carda Nostra" trinity of Topps/Blowout/DA will manipulate the resale market to appear like they're spking in price. Cosmic NBA appeared to be over $1k/box for about 5 minutes too. Don't buy into it. It sucks that the joy has largely been squeezed out of these for rippers. Because they truly are a fun rip at the right price. I think that price is somewhere south of $650. This one screams "Buy singles!" If I'm joining the party, I'm saving the stacks I would have used to rip a few boxes and buying some cool rare inserts of my guys. Planetary Pursuits are phenomenal. Constellations are outstanding. Planetariums are extraordinary. Supernovas, Starfractors, Cosmis Dusts...it's like a candy factory of rare inserts. Maybe that means some will end up being affordable because there are so many options. That's what I'm doing with Cosmic. Let everyone else get kicked in the beanbag while I cherry pick my PC cards. Part 6: Print Runs Base cards per player: ~25,250 Base rookies: ~11,580 ea Unnumbered parallels: Refractor- ~580 ea Nucleus- ~300 ea White Hole- ~75 ea Rookie Refractors- ~580 ea Rookie Nucleus- ~300 ea Rookie White Hole- ~75 ea Unnumbered Inserts: Light Speed (35 card CL)- ~5,515 ea Extraterrestrial Talent (25 card CL)- ~5,790 ea Stars in the Night (25 card CL)- ~5,780 ea Star Clusters (15 card CL)- ~5,515 ea Rare Inserts: Light Years (20 card CL)- ~83 ea Cosmic Dust (20 card CL)- ~83 ea Cos-Play (25 card CL)- ~83 ea Supernova (25 card CL)- ~83 ea Constellation (100 card CL)- ~24 ea Starfractor (100 card CL)- ~35 ea Planetarium (25 card CL)- ~86 ea Planetary Pursuits (10 card CL): Sun- ~725 ea Mercury- ~360 ea Venus- ~180 ea Earth- ~120 ea Mars- ~72 ea Jupiter- ~36 ea Saturn- ~18 ea Uranus- ~9 ea Neptune- ~5 ea Pluto- ~4 ea Unnumbered Autos: Cosmic Chrome Base Autos (68 card CL)- ~40 ea (I know. The odds say these are easier to pull than Green Space Dust Autos /75, so how can there be less of them? These are never all inserted into a product. Some are withheld for damage replacements, or it's possible not every player signed certain parallels. Whatever the reason, only ~30 of each Green /75 are inserted into the product. Additionally, only ~36 of each Gold /50 are inserted. This is not uncommon. I've talked about this in the past and it's just not worth dwelling on. This will not make the expected pull rate of autos go down.) Solar Flare Signatures (26 card CL)- ~50 ea Equinox Autos (29 card CL)- ~45 ea First Flight Signatures (25 card CL)- ~50 ea #thehobby #SlabSquatchAnalytics #2025CosmicChromeNFL

  @ItsaMeCooper @beckettcollect There’s an operation out of China right now that duplicates the slab cases and finds cert numbers for high end cards, and puts a low quality version in their fake slab to sell on eBay. If you look up the cert it seems valid. A company I’m working with is actually working on a product to solve this issue. What will matter most is if the Centering on the cert image was the same. If that’s the case there is also a potential for it to have been a **** up rather than a downright fraud. Beckett has moved to using computer vision for centering checks recently, and as someone who has built his own home pre-grading rig, I’ll note that computer vision has a hard time with metallic edge looking cards, but especially cards where the front image layer (creature and UI) overlaps the border like this card does with its evolution information on the upper left and right of the card. That would still be no excuse and it should be reviewed carefully as the lack of image on the grading report is sus. But, mistakes, external fraud, or single rogue employee are all more likely than large sinister operation.

  Pierre Omidyar built eBay over a 3 day holiday weekend while working a full time job. He was just testing a theory. He was born in Paris in 1967 to Iranian immigrant parents who had come to France for graduate school. His family moved to the United States when he was 6, settling in Washington DC where his father completed a medical residency. He grew up in Maryland, became obsessed with computers in high school, and spent as much time as possible on his school's single computer terminal. He studied computer science at Tufts, graduated in 1988, and spent the early 1990s working at Bay Area tech companies while building side projects in the evenings. He was deeply curious about how people interacted economically with each other through technology. Over Labor Day weekend in 1995 he wrote the code for a simple online auction platform while holding a full time job. He wanted to test one idea. Could you create an efficient marketplace by letting buyers and sellers set prices together in real time? He listed a broken laser pointer himself just to see if the functionality worked. It sold for $14.83. He emailed the buyer to confirm the item was broken. The buyer wrote back to say he collected broken laser pointers. Within a year the site was generating so much traffic his internet provider made him upgrade to a business account. He renamed the platform eBay, hired a CEO to run operations, and took it public in 1998. He became a billionaire at 31, the youngest self made billionaire in American history at the time. He built one of the defining internet companies of the 20th century over a holiday weekend from his apartment in the spare hours between a full time job and the rest of his life. The market had spoken from the very first transaction.

  @glenn_tunes He developed Space X with private equity. Is the first to utilize reusable rockets. He launched a worldwide satellite Internet company which will soon be a cellular company also. He started Tesla and it's now the #1 selling car in America. He's currently working on putting solar powered AI servers in space which solves the massive amount of electricity and heat dissipation issues. Since the AI satellites are part of Space X no one will be able to do it cheaper. He started eBay with 1 partner which funded everything that came after it. And less than 4 years ago he overpaid $44 billion for Twitter and it looked like the golden child ran into his first brick wall. . . failure. Twitter's value was estimated at close to $25 billion at that time. Currently X is valued just short of the $44 billion he paid for it in just 4 years. I read a short news story on investing by a wall street analyst. He said investing and making money is easy. Just buy stock in anything Elon starts or has invested in.

  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!

  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?

  Ebay seller that combine S1/S2/Update (inserts) (parallels) in drop down menus are so easy to avoid when searching players...

  I'm an electrical contractor. So maybe I can speak here a little. Very often pricing is a mafia structure between very few vendors. Here in Florida, lighting is ridiculous. For the same build-out, I will get a $23k lighting quote as "alternatives to spec" that are legit the same products, just a different brand, and the spec'ed lights will get quoted at $64k. Now for your breaker. I personally will not buy a breaker from Amazon or eBay. This is personal. There's likely no issue, but I will pay 3x more through my vendors due to relationships with them, trust with them, certain guarantees through them. Yes, this will get passed onto the customer, but generally 3 phase bigger breakers like this control things that cost money each time they're shut down or require scheduling to shut down. Imagine if I send an employee into a... Grocery store..or something overnight since they can't shut down during the day. My Amazon/eBay breaker fails during this overnight shut down. Now I'm just the cheap *** contractor trusting Amazon and eBay to save a couple hundred $, that now costed me thousands and will require another shut down, logistics etc etc. It sucks, sorry you had to deal with this. My hyperbolic story isn't always true, but I've ran into your breaker price range a few times and usually.. it's the electrical wholesale mafia setting the price because they know we'll pay for it.

  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.
