    @NinWire Scary situation with the example of the game keycard for Borderlands 4 on eBay that went up for sale. Someone bought and found it only returned an error code as nothing is on the cartridge. Obviously that game was cancelled but the cartridge was legit. Fate of all key cards.

    @RNFdowney @eBay and, no, a bid is not a binding contract when made in error. a binding contract requires intent. when you intend to bid 11.56 and not 1156, there is no contract when your bid is automatically raised to 25.77--regardless of any ebay policy. there was never any intent to bid that.

    @LikeToBeBossy I buy physical too off eBay with voucher codes.. but i seldom get PS essential, wait till it runs down and then buy Extra or Premium at a discount.

    I have a terrible addiction. It costs me money every month. I do not encourage anyone to walk this path…… But as long as I’m alive I will always probably be obsessed with sports cards!!!! Check this months @eBay auctions!!!!!

    @Cross_Malaki Many gaming consoles play DVDs, too. A CD/DVD player attachment you can connect to a computer is dirt cheap at Walmart. Combo TV & DVD players are still manufactured, or you can get retro ones on eBay. And yes, there are still people who know how to fix them if things break.

    @pokemondealsuk @cppopscollect That's terrible, I know the entertainer do the toys in Tesco but I assumed the Pokémon stuff came via Tesco directly. The store should have stopped him from purchasing it all, you know that's all on eBay or whatever once he's home

    @fatparoon @Sir_BeefWelly @CardPurchaser Some people don't realize that there are people from all over the world that buy on eBay legitimately and this person may or may not have just recently started buying and that is why they don't have any feedback in the last 12 months. eBay international shipping protects you as long as they receive the card from you. I have shipped many cards through eBay international shipping including to China without any issue at all.

    @ClownWorld These are the same scum that try to talk me down on an item at my garage sale that I marked for $3.00-- like, "No, *******, you can pay the $3 or keep it moving." Because all they want to do is list it on eBay for more.

    sounds great on paper, but there's a detail: to get your game into the kids catalog, developers must now pay $5/month for roblox plus, pass id verification and enable 2fa. Roblox plus launches april 30. The kids system launches in june, subscription revenue flows first, child safety comes second. and the whole thing runs on facial age estimation that was publicly broken within days of launch. Kids drew wrinkles on their faces and got flagged as 21+. Someone showed a photo of kurt cobain and passed. parents scanned their own faces to unlock chat for their children, accidentally placing minors into the adult tier with full access to adult strangers. Age-verified child accounts showed up on ebay for $5. by q3 2025, users 13 and older made up 2/3 of roblox's 151 million daily players. This was never a kids platform in the way they marketed it. Split is roblox catching up to what the data already showed. meanwhile, 146 families are suing in consolidated federal litigation. state ags are lining up. tennessee's attorney general called roblox "the digital equivalent of a creepy cargo van at the edge of a playground" platform had years to build these walls. It took 146 lawsuits and a biometric pr crisis to make them move.

    @premiercards_2 @eBay @Topps Good to know such a large card account is a complete ******. I simply said you should be upset at Topps in the first place. If I have anything going to an authenticity check, I always put it in a one-touch and I’ve never had an issue. Have even requested it from numerous sellers and never had an issue but by all means keep crying about it and being a d-bag. 👍🏾

    @eBay Contacted your customer service 5 times about a buyer scamming me. You've avoided helping me every single time. As a seller, I'm done. Never using eBay again. Your support is terrible and leaves honest sellers unprotected. #eBay #CustomerServiceFail #eBayScam

    @sirronhale @eBay bingo... i dont have this problem from the seller side. i have the issue from the buyer side. I stalk an auction for days and get what i think is a good deal.... seller cancels within 5 minutes of the auction ending. how convenient that the item is no longer available...

    @jonbrooks Need an ebay site and an AI lawyer to check the paperwork and handle transfers. so.. yes. But not until the realtor cartel can be broken. We need a tesla-like situation where the product just puts realtor (car dealers) to shame.

    @pmitu I disagree. I spoke to several eBay resellers about the issues they were having. Built Privy - an eBay product intelligence tool that solved those problems. But I’m struggling to get active users!

    The crazier part is TCGPlayer is so much worse. I went back to ebay and it was relieving, but still a big problem. TCGplayer is like 2 weeks after you mark as shipped or sometning. On TCGPlayer I constantly ran into liquidity issues and had more money pending than liquid.

    This is actually really important. ive been responding a lot about this exact need. Now I need to see if I can get their data and then we can see more volume on the P2P marketplaces. why? because there is a lot of arb between NFTs and ebay. but what was broken to realize this is the fulfillment. if you can have a place like Dylil ship to the buyer. not only does it protect the user. it actually makes the arbitrage more efficient! When more people see this I would expect more volume going to @dyli_io

    @rohit4verse Consumer demand is down all over the place. My mom has a eBay storefront and has sold antiques/vintage jewelry for over 20 years now on their platform and she told me yesterday that sales are non-existent. People have stopped dropping off dry cleaning (expected with all the layoffs), and restaurants are struggling to keep open.
