Tom Kent (@tomkentuk) reported@AutoInfatuation New cases are easy. Literally buy a case on eBay, they swap straight in. Most of the issues with these have been resolved by now, so you should have relatively trouble free motoring. Regular servicing sorts the rest. My X250 2.2 has only had EGR issues, now deleted. 🫣

HighDesertTech (@HighDesertTek) reported@eBay just know that you're banning legitimate sellers without explaining what (if anything) they did wrong. Whatever tools you're using now to automate this is not working properly. You banned my brother after he posted his 5800X3D and RAM listings. A legitimate seller.

Marcus O'Reillius (@euthunoF4E) reported@GatehouseTwenty @ZakariaMDv3 It's a castor oil pack. Take a cloth saturated with castor oil, make a pack (I bought one on eBay or something) and wrap it over your stomach and go to sleep. It breaks down the biofilm protecting parasites and I did get some results out the drain pipe so to speak.

☦️ Before the beginning: 🙏 (@AnteGenesis) reported@alanwatts21 @ryancohen I won’t be surprised if we find out that these fraud heavy accounts are pulling in money for the USAID/NGO vacuum that DOGE created. The issue with USPS tracking numbers being fed to the fraudsters to provide a faux proxy delivery within a zip code where the eBay buyer resides is very suspicious. The USPS refuses to give info of point of delivery that proves the delivery was made to a location NOT the buyer’s eBay registered address makes me think USPS is party to the scam.

TiTs McMeatball (@FiloFoomp) reportedIt’s strange that a base card gets that much. I think once the dust settles it’s gonna be around that price point. I think there is a chance for 2200-2500 sales but seeing those prices I’m gonna step out on a fat tree limb and say PSA subs get flooded. Those blister packs go way up in price. And the market levels off back to sale we see now then bottom out at $1k for the base rookies. The sp ssp numbered stuff will be the biggest jumps and never look back. Base is a bad long term bet. Either way selling now you made a chunk of change. Buy now flip now you will make small amounts comparatively yet you will be in before the top crests. It won’t be a violent slide down it will be gradual stuff sitting on eBay. I don’t disagree about Ohtani. He is once in a lifetime kinda player yet I also believe he is the start of a new kind of player. He is the Jordan of baseball. A game changer. A reason teams build the way they do to play against. He is definitely the Jordan of mlb in our time. Idk about cards because of the base Jordan had never had numbered signed short print print etc. I would not think base Ohtani is base Jordan prices. Idk. Just some things I think about.

NO1ennn (@N01ennn) reportedA HOMELAB BUILDER JUST PAIRED AN AMD EPYC 77 CHIP WITH 512GB OF DDR5 AND LLAMA.CPP TO RUN DEEPSEEK V3 ENTIRELY FROM RAM WITHOUT A SINGLE GPU 00:03 "my very own AI super computer, not exactly, but it should be quite capable. the goal is to run large LLMs entirely from RAM with a decent context window" the stack is minimalist. one AMD EPYC 77 series processor, 8 memory channels, 512GB of DDR5 ECC, llama.cpp compiled for CPU inference. no GPU. no CUDA. no waiting for a used 3090 to appear on eBay running DeepSeek V3 and Llama 4 from system memory means inference happens at CPU speeds, slower per token but unlocks model sizes that would need a $40,000 8xH100 server to fit on GPU. 405B parameters loaded straight into RAM the article ranks local AI compute from $180 Tesla P40 up to $4,199 Mac Studio. this build sits in a different lane entirely. not GPU acceleration, but raw memory capacity. RAM is the new frontier for anything above 200B parameters most people wait out the GPU shortage. he built an inference machine that never needed a GPU in the first place save this before every homelab realizes their server chassis was already an LLM machine waiting for enough RAM ↓

Polsia (@polsia) reportedE-commerce pricing is a war. Most brands lose because they can't afford to watch prices 24/7. Built AutoPricer to fix that. Our AI agents monitor Amazon, Shopify, eBay in real time — and reprice your listings automatically based on your margin rules.

Jeff (@Jeff56829691278) reportedJust finally checked out after adding my info 3x and got this error message. Not cool when you add your credit card info and it glitches… hopefully I get an email to confirm my order went through. It’s like EBay management is still living in 1996.

Milk Road (@milkroaddaily) reportedAppLovin already owns $11B of the $100B of mobile gaming ad spend per year. Which means they can't continue growing at 59% per year forever. So they're opening the platform to every advertiser on Earth - starting with a focus on E-commerce, then insurance and fintech. If it works, the addressable market goes from ~$100B in mobile gaming ads to $600B+ in digital advertising. That's the bull case. The bear case: The company's ad trading system (AXON) became exceptional by predicting behavior inside games. Predicting who buys a mattress or an insurance policy is a different problem, and Meta and Amazon hold much richer purchase-intent data. eBay, Snap, and Groupon all tried to expand past their original strengths and struggled. Whether AppLovin's data is good enough for e-commerce will show up in return-on-ad-spend numbers over the next few quarters, and nowhere else. There are other yellow flags too. 👇

🩸 𝕲𝖔𝖙𝖍𝖎𝖈 𝕻𝖘𝖞𝖔𝖕 𝕸𝖆𝖌𝖊 🩸 (@StackedGothInc) reported@pnwguerrilla Have the same bag, can confirm it's ****, will also continue to use it because I got mine for $25 off of Ebay with the plastic stiffener included. Might spray paint mine, the RitDyemore wasn't the fix I was hoping it was going to be.

Phil McCrotch 🏴☠️ (@AZbroker) reported@nntaleb @stan_yurin HVAC tech said I was asking him to commit a felony to top up my R-22 sub-zero fridge that had stopped cooling. Acted so self righteous. So I bot some off eBay & did it myself. No problems past 5 years. Buying a new fridge would have been worse for environment but that is what these stupid laws produce.

MedicineMan (@DSeebeck) reportedJapanese Kraftwerk? Yes! Rolling down the Autobahn (Buffalo Daughter) with Musique Non-Stop. All whilst I remount the 331G 30cm drivers. The brass bolts are superior to the original wood screws. I thought the big driver had blown last night. It started scratching like the spider had come unglued. Ouch! This morning I got out my spare. Fortunately, it was merely those very same wood screws loosened and making noise. I had stopped the work on these last year; at least until I had became more adept at refurb. The mounted pair of 331G’s I sourced from a private dealer in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam and the single was from Ukraine Ebay. This fun CD is from Discogs. Switch is about 3:25. The capacitors are still new in them. Still breaking in.

The Sports Card Shop (@_sportscardshop) reportedCheck out this a Ohtani card Gold Storm inserts are supposed to be /25 Ours is not There are 2 others like it listed on eBay and 1 recorded sale on Cardladder PSA won’t grade it, nor will they recognize it as an error card Their response to our research request is below: “The manufacturer clearly missed this card during the QA process, and due to the missing serial number, would not have wanted it to be released to the public with that missing information. PSA respects the manufacturer's design and QA standards, and are not able to accept this for encapsulation. “ I don’t see how Topps could remake it. They would have to acquire all the unstamped versions and either remake or stamp them all Do they even know how many are out there? In the end, I believe we’re holding a card that’s actually more rare than the actual /25 version It’s for sale. Open to offers.

Orion (@0xOrionVega) reportedTWO USED EPYC ROMES. 768GB OF DDR4. ZERO GPUs. ONE BASEMENT RIG RUNNING DEEPSEEK V3 671B WITHOUT A DATACENTER'S PERMISSION. Nobody talks about this setup and I don't know why. A used dual-socket EPYC Rome board with 768GB of registered ECC costs less than renting a single H100 for a week. I paid $2,400 on eBay. Guy shipped it in a box that used to hold a microwave. Loaded ktransformers, pinned the NUMA nodes properly, and now DeepSeek V3 671B runs at 8-12 tokens per second on my basement floor. No cloud. No rate limits. No "your prompt violates our terms." No data leaving the room. Everyone assumes local AI means a wall of 3090s. It doesn't. MoE models only activate ~37B parameters per token, so memory bandwidth carries the run, not raw compute. Server RAM has plenty of both if you wire it right. The wild part: as datacenters swap Rome for Turin, this gear is basically being given away. What cost $40k in 2022 is $3k on eBay now. Meanwhile the models keep getting better. I'm not a sysadmin. I'm not an ML engineer. I watched three YouTube videos and read one Reddit thread. If I can do this in a basement, the "you need a datacenter" narrative is cooked.

Great American Sports Cards (@therealgasc) reportedHey everyone! I was getting the sheet ready for today's break and realized we made a mistake in the listings of the 25/26 Finest UEFA breaks. When we copied the teams over from the checklist we pasted them into the wrong cell on the sheet we use to upload the listings into eBay. With that said there are the teams that were listed that are not available in the product. Eintracht Frankfurt Nottingham Forest PSV Eindhoven Here is what we are doing to correct it. We will issue refunds to anyone that purchased any of these teams and you will receive one of the unlisted teams for free in the break. Here are the teams that were not listed FC Salzburg LOSC Lille Olympique de Marseille Apologies for the error on this one!

raiden (@raidenfomo) reportedTHIS GUY TURNED $2,700 IN PARTS INTO AN AI BOX THAT KILLED HIS $1,000 A MONTH CLAUDE API BILL IN ONE DAY. The bill landed on the first of the month: $1,043. His agents had been hammering Claude API around the clock: sorting mail, tagging notes, drafting replies. He's 31, rents a corner in a repair shop in Shanghai, and he's not a hardware guy. He watched two videos, bent the pins on his first socket, built the second box right. Inside: a used Threadripper, a board with seven GPU slots, eight sticks of RAM, one 24GB card off eBay. Ollama installs in 20 minutes. Llama 70B downloads while he eats. Pause at 0:04 on the row of black slots under the chip. Seven of them, each takes a full 24GB card. Type Tesla P40 into eBay right now: server cards with 24GB, out of real data centers, under $200. Data centers swap hardware in waves, and every wave dumps thousands of these for the price of headphones. The hardware got thirty times cheaper. The API price didn't drop by a dollar. The API never sold him a model. It sold a meter. Open models in the 70B class caught up with the paid tiers, so the night work moved onto the box: drafts, sorting, his own files. Claude API keeps the hard 15%, the long research chains. The bill fell under $100. Electricity adds $7. The parts paid for themselves by month three. Everyone else is still feeding the meter. He bought the car. Save this before the next wave of server cards clears eBay.

Atharva Phadke (@atharvasp8) reportedSo, after removing the cpu and cleaning the base, I have installed the rt3612 we talked about. It took me 3 attempts to get it installed correctly, as it is a DFN package. QFN stands for Quad Flat No Leads it looks like the one attached in the image below. First time i SOLDERED, it did the exact same thing, shorted the 5v rail. But after removing and repasting and soldering again, it got fixed the 2nd time. Mostly, if extra solder blob gets stuck between middle square ground pad, and any pin, it's dead short to ground. We need to avoid that, and i prevented that on the third attempt by using lots of flux. Ok so that's done, moving on, we power up the board. And VOILA great news, the bucks are all working. Rt3612 jumps the cpu vcc to 1.2 and shuts down. 5v buck ramps voltage to around 4.8 and then shuts down. 3.3v also nearly does the same. they are doing this as per the decision from the rt3612. Basically, it is the wife of power section of laptop. It governs and controls the power flow. :P Above voltage confirms that, the PD power controller ic is working, it is negotiating the voltage and taking, the BQ charging controller is switching the main power rail between battery mode qnd charger mode, and the EC is talking with the battery to output voltage and all. Only thing remaining now is to get same CPU die from ebay, and solder it and test. If that works, then i swear I'll jump Also, coming back to the precautionary things: 1. Be very careful when messing with digital chipsets, sensitive ICs, multilayer motherboards. Basically never thermally stress the unwanted parts. 2. Use a kapton tape (orange transparent) which will shield the sensitive components from heat spread during a hot air desoldering session. Read the datasheet of the IC which you are messing with. They would mention soldering parameters. Never exceed the rated conditions by the manufacturer. AT ANY COST. try to minimise your heating session time. The more the heating, more the chances of damage.

Ernie (BigE) 🇺🇲 (@SouthernGatorz) reported@eBay @eBay This is useless. I don’t need to contact support — I need you to actually fix your broken system. You make bidders add a payment method but still let them ghost for four days. Stop wasting sellers’ time with these automated non-answers and just charge the damn card when they win an auction.

Rick (@rick_rgf142u) reported@downdetector Does this mean we can charge ebay a fee for down time? They are always quick to charge sellers fees for every little thing🤔

AJ (@CardGameNomad) reported@Mel248028 My luck has been terrible with this set (and tbh, it's been rough on the Pokemon side for minute for me lol)..... but I sold one of my TAG 10 Zards and decided to use the funds to buy a box. Bought the two Bright Fantasy boxes from selling some bulk lots on eBay. So, it's a win no matter what I hit for me lol

Stonkfather 🏴☠️ (@Stonkfather2021) reportedSome collectibles have phases where they’re popular then suddenly they’re not I’d put the following things in this category: -Nike shoes -Watches -Designer clothes (Supreme) -Memorabilia Etc.. One thing that hasn’t been mentioned is GameStops ability to pivot into these areas Use capital to buy up the unloved category while it’s down, build up inventory and then sell it at its peak. They could even use Powerpacks if they wish. Imagine a $100 power pack where you can win a Rolex… When you pair that with the global reach of eBay they will have the monopoly on collectibles THAT is why wallstreet hate this EBay deal GameStop forever

Nate (@StanleyCup3533) reportedHas anyone had issue with COMC combining shipping on eBay? Their comms aren’t the best on eBay and they use an automated system to combine, which doesn’t always work. In fact it increased the shipping by $10. @CheckOutMyCards

Pierce Cards (@PierceCards) reported@SwamileeSports @CardPurchaser @eBay Instead of playing victim take 100% accountability. If you think eBay is suppressing your sales, take your best card and list it at 25% of comps. I bet it sells. This is an inventory and/or pricing problem.
