Mart (@SnatchedYaChain) reported@Braves_Jacob @CardPurchaser In my experience lower end cards sell faster on Vinted. Higher end sell better on eBay. They payout as soon as the card is delivered. They give the buyer 48 hours to report any issues. I’ve never had any issues. If anything goes missing in the post, Vinted refund you.

.𖥔 ݁ ˖ Corey ˖ ݁ 𖥔. (@coreysito_) reportedThe seller "doesn't take returns" but ebay says that if it doesn't get resolved by the 15th then I can actually get them to step in so I guess we have to wait it out. I might be down 35 dollars though deadass some of you ebay ******* need to be banned from having internet

AD (@realAdrianDa32) reported@9trevv ***** I was the leading bidder on Ebay until you took it down

🇺🇸 🇺🇸 Kimmidi 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 (@KimmidiFarms) reported@gunny_retired Had a high boost for about three months then dropped back down. It's like they rotate the servers or something. Used to happen on Ebay all the time.

GPT-Pain (@GPTpain) reported@waltuuuhr @eBay Yeah, it's a good, simple idea that you would hope somebody getting paid at eBay has offered up. The feedback rating system lets me know to a degree when someone is unreliable or in the gray area near fraudulence, but I don't think it accounts for, "sometimes this person, who infrequently sells items, is a bit lazy and slow."

DM (@indycardguy317) reported@boggs328 Richard, just out of my curiosity, how many of them exhibit decent centering? I have owned three different ones, and none of them were well centered, and a recent eBay ‘rabbit hole’ search didn’t yield many raw ones at all. I think Topps had an issue with this specific card?

Irene 🏴 (@Hallmork) reported@fesshole I loved working in office IT After fixing the problem the rest of my days was spent sitting in chat rooms or listing my things to sell on eBay. My boss thought I was a genius.

theObstructedViewer (@ObstructedView) reported@MarkMattern35 @FIPmyWHIP @CardPurchaser It's not a money thing. Having actual humans meticulous grade an item takes TIME. The main issue is/was that folks were submitting millions of crappy cards that were essentially worthless. Go look at ebay. This is PSA's way of saying only submit cards worth grading.

Markjono (@markjono69_mark) reported@RobPritchard78 Why was there an issue and some programmes on eBay are going for £25

🦋 Surefire 🦋 (@paidhedgie) reported@GoatBeardzDD no because the idea is @ryancohen said he wouldn't back down and was going to own ebay, so it's like ok... make an all cash offer then, but he can't.

Derek (@Goufunaki) reported@MugenLord One of the best horror games on PS2. Ebay prices are BS, so you're better off playing a rom. Your character doesn't directly attack, so you issue commands to your dog to defend you.

TerpCards (@TerpCards) reported@eBay Well the latest I am told is "No worries I was able to see that your account is indeed not connected to any other accounts," but no reason why I have this message and cannot bid or how to fix it...

The Feed (@TheFeed_HQ) reportedJUST IN: GAMESTOP ISN'T QUITTING EBAY. IT'S REPACKAGING THE DEAL The reported shift from a $56B takeover to a partnership is less a retreat than a read on what's actually achievable. A cash-and-stock deal at that size always carried two problems: a financing gap and a skeptical eBay board. A partnership removes both obstacles. GameStop's 1,600 U.S. stores become the asset that matters — authentication, fulfillment, live commerce. That's the same thesis as the takeover, without the balance-sheet risk. The 9.75% stake plus potential board seats gives it meaningful leverage even without control. If this happens, the real question isn't whether the deal dies. It's whether eBay cedes enough operational territory in a partnership to hand Cohen the influence he wanted anyway. What would eBay get in return that it couldn't build alone?

Polsia (@polsia) reportedOnline arbitrage sellers lose margin to 3am price wars and ship off stockouts they never see. Built Arbhawk to fix both. It scans Amazon, Walmart, and eBay every few minutes, pauses on stockouts, and emails one daily brief. The hawk flies soon.

Jon Brooks (@jonbrooks) reported@eBay @RobGronkowski @eBay I need help canceling a bid that was placed by mistake. I immediately notified the seller, but the Help Center keeps sending me in circles with no way to contact support. I've been an eBay customer for over a decade and have never had an issue like this. Could someone please help?

Simon (@sihoughton) reported@GogoX54 @HustlinMotiv8 EBay always put the bloated prices at the top of searches. Scroll down and it will be cheap.
-
Marc Levin (@themarclevin) reported@eBay This “tax” for having a 99.8% positive feedback and having the audacity to cancel a listing because it was lost eight months ago… with no issues since, is akin to just another profit center… not “protecting buyers”.

Zakaria Ra (@zakariarasmi) reported@coolifyio @Hetzner_Online Just to give you an idea: That CPU, costs 8$ on eBay. You can build this whole server with used parts for 2-3 monthly payments.

Nicolas - Bourse Attitude (@Bourse_Attitude) reportedGameStop ($GME) considers withdrawing its $56 billion bid for eBay GameStop could abandon its $56 billion takeover attempt for eBay, according to Bloomberg News. CEO Ryan Cohen is reportedly reviewing the offer, although no final decision has yet been made. GameStop has not commented publicly on the report. GameStop launched its unsolicited proposal in May, offering $125 per eBay share, with the consideration split between cash and GameStop shares. The company initially held a 5% economic stake in eBay, but subsequently increased its position to nearly 10% of the company, becoming one of eBay's largest shareholders. eBay previously rejected the takeover proposal. Rather than pursuing a full acquisition, Ryan Cohen is reportedly considering a partnership or joint venture. Such an arrangement could allow eBay to use GameStop's roughly 1,600 US stores, particularly for businesses such as trading cards and collectibles. GameStop could also seek representation on eBay's board. The possible change in strategy comes after several months of pressure surrounding the proposed transaction and questions over its financing. In pre-market trading on Monday, GameStop shares were up around 1.4%, while eBay shares were down approximately 0.6%. $GME #GME #GAMESTOP

Fat Dodger Fan (@FatDodgerFan) reported@Kramaramb @HobbyHero_Bros It is definitely more challenging to move them on OfferUp or FB marketplace and vendors will refuse them at card shows. But I’ve had absolutely no issues consigning CGC slabs on eBay and typically get a 95% or higher payout on the sale price. It’s not too difficult to send in.

Chimp Out (@Chimpnouts) reportedI will not delete this time, that means as per the flawed system i do not have access to my .@XMoney account, that means i can't check for fraud, i can't verify 2 deposits from an ebay account i just added, i can't lock my virtual card etc.. etc.. This is a flaw in the system that i've exposed several times now. I realize it's my choice to delete or not delete. I already appealed this, i did the last time too. I said the last time i was going to close the xmoney if i had to delete it to get access. I lied, i didn't. But, i will this time if i have to. I say that meaning, if i have to delete before the appeal is seen, meaning more than 48 hours. It's a flawed system that xmoney is not accessible when your account is locked out, because you are being held by the ***** and x's terrible review system. This profile image is NOT a violation, and x knows it, but getting someone to fix it, it's another story. .@Chimpnnout

Newtype *** (@Saturday_Anime) reportedWhen we were teenagers, my friends and I held reverence for hackers. One morning back in 2000, I woke up and heard on the news that someone had brought down Amazon, E-Trade, Yahoo, eBay, and CNN. Sweet. Sometime after that, news broke of the arrest of the perpetrator: a 15 year old boy named Michael Calce -aka MafiaBoy. I thought that was just the coolest **** ever because I was 15, too. There was this whole era where our parents, teachers, and other adults believed that just because some of us were adept with computers, that we were capable of terrible things like MafiaBoy was. The worst we were capable were isolated incidents at school or in public. I knew how to get into my schools grading and attendance system, SASI -but never had the ***** to change my grades. I added classes to the system like "RUSTY TROMBONING" and put in people I liked or didn't like, and gave them a grade commensurate to what I believed their talent in such an act was. Friend of mine in Colorado would get expelled from school around the same time for constantly getting printers throughout the school to print out The Hackers Manifesto as read from the movie Hackers. He got arrested a few years later after accessing the customer database of one of the big supermarket chains in his area.

Hobbit's Hole 🇺🇸✝️ (@HobbitsHole1) reported@KryptonianOtaku They can be found for a decent prices on eBay. Although, word of warning, they may not work on certain devices for playing DVDs now. I’m not sure why, but I’ve run into that problem a couple times.
