  A $181K Pokémon auction flipped into a $236K “instant sale” right after the winning bidder allegedly didn’t pay. That alone is raising eyebrows in the high end hobby space. The MBA Black Diamond Black Label Bubble Mew reportedly ended at around $181,000. Shortly after, it was claimed the winning bidder failed to complete payment. The card was then relisted and quickly sold again for approximately $241,000. This all involves Ryan Card House and their handling of the auction process. According to an employee clarification, the original winner may have even bid up to $350K before backing out, which makes the final pricing narrative even harder to reconcile. The issue here is not just the individual transaction, but what it suggests about how high end auctions are being handled. If there were any prior agreements, guarantees, or undisclosed fallback pricing expectations, that would interfere with true price discovery instead of being explained after the fact. That is where concern comes in. Without the infrastructure and safeguards of established marketplaces like Goldin, ALT, or eBay, high end sales can start to distort rather than reflect real demand. Whether everything here is above board or not, the lack of transparency is exactly what erodes trust in the space. People need clean auctions. Not outcomes that require explanation after the fact. #Pokemon #PokemonTCG #BubbleMew

  The Net Profit question often appears in my DMs and comments when I post about buying and selling. Is there easy, passive income profit when buying products from auctions to resale? Nope. But here's how I made $557,127 profit from doing a ton of research about a product line I knew nothing about. Let's start with why I wanted to try this experiment. I’m a tech guy who builds tech companies. As you know from my previous posts, I always try to impress my awesome wife. But when I had 56,347 iPhones and iPads in my warehouse, the women in my life were not impressed. Then, I brought home a box of designer handbags that I came across, and the women in my life lost their minds. There was something here. I could feel it. I had just sold TechRestore and wanted to build a company with zero employees, using social commerce and building it just with my phone. I love starting over at 0. So, I began researching to be sure these handbags could be a good business. First, you swim upstream. I bought handbags from all the major players on social commerce sites like Poshmark and eBay. I wanted to see how their packaging looked, how their sales funnel functioned, and how they handled returns. All of these: not very good. I know how to do these 3 things very well. Just with computer parts, not handbags. How different could it be? Opportunity? Yes. I then needed suppliers. I have a great database of suppliers that find me very credible. Why? Because I am consistent, I pay on time and never complain about small problems. It took me 11 months to strike gold. After 149 calls and 348 emails (I track this stuff), one supplier referred me to another (probably just to shut me up), and I found my source. During these 11 months, I had been “warming up” my accounts on social commerce platforms. Learning how Poshmark worked, meeting the managers of the eBay handbag channel. Anything I could do to build credibility. About a year into it, I knew how to build followers on these marketplaces, how the shipping worked, how customer service functioned, and how to talk to primarily female customers buying handbags. I started selling. Like a rocket ship, the combination of a good supplier, great customer service, and business practices took off, and I started to get attention. So much attention that the CEO of Poshmark invited me to visit their headquarters. Uh oh! I am pretty sure they thought I was a woman. With my name and the fact that I wanted to make my female customers feel comfortable, I only posted pictures of me with my wife – I’m sure they were surprised when a dude with a beard showed up at their office. After a laugh, I got a tour and met with the CEO for a Q&A session. Super amazing. This post is getting long, so let’s fast forward: I sold over 7000 handbags on Poshmark and other social commerce marketplaces—$ 3.7M in revenue and $557,127 in profit. 83% of the handbags I sold, I bought from auctions. I did a bunch of consulting for Poshmark, and they loved me so much that I got access to their IPO. I still don’t know anything about fashion. However, I know how to find the delta between buying and selling and how to implement systems that work. I had so much fun and learned so much that I wrote a book about it. Poshmark Unlocked has sold thousands of copies, and I learned how to start a publishing business. Can anyone do this? Absolutely. It takes time, a willingness to spend hours doing research, experimenting and access to some capital. If you want to learn more about unconventional methods of building businesses and wealth, give me a follow @ShannonJean - I promise that it will be interesting and fun!

  @AmazonHelp For the last few weeks I have nothing but trouble with your website. It does not come up normally. I have to try 5 or six times for it to come up so it is readable. I wanted to order that new hose but could not open the site. I bought it on EBAY instead.

  //So I get random bouts of hardcore lag when I'm on this site and I'm not sure why. I had similar lag on places like Ebay, but I found out that the adblocker makes Ebay almost unusable. Going to turn off adblock here for a week and see if the lag crashes slow or stop.

  Satoshi didn't just build digital cash. He was trying to build an entire P2P economy, including onchain poker, an eBay-style marketplace, native escrow systems and more. Most people never knew this existed. Now the original Bitcoin Poker game is being brought back to life on BSV Blockchain (the original chain). This is what Satoshi Vision actually looked like before it got stripped down. The code was always there (GitHub). They just stopped building it. What other early Satoshi ideas will resurrect? "Bitcoin is everything!" #BSV

  @Whatnot Never ever purchase anything from @Whatnot . Awful customer service, unhelpful and don’t care at all about their users. I cannot stress this enough, if you are in Canada, completely AVOID this site. Absolutely terrible, I will continue using eBay only.

  He spent $400 on 12 broken phones and turned them into a machine that prints money while he sleeps. not a metaphor. a literal shelf of cracked Pixel 2s earning him cash 24/7. here is the whole build. he buys dead Android phones in bulk off eBay. cracked screens, trashed batteries, dead speakers. the more broken, the cheaper. $350 for twelve. $50 more for chargers and a hub. that is the entire startup cost. then he loads each one with apps that pay you to do nothing. apps that pay you to swipe up when an ad plays on the lock screen. apps that pay you just to sit there collecting data in the background. apps that pay you to run games passively. every phone gets its own Google account. its own phone number for verification, rented for a dollar. then they just run. on a shelf. all day, every day. 36 cents a day per phone. twelve phones. $129 a month from a pile of e-waste he plugged into a wall. the farm pays for itself in four months. everything after that is pure profit, and he just keeps stacking phones. people are out here trading 8 hours a day for a paycheck while one guy built a system that earns whether he is awake or not. that is the whole shift happening right now. the people winning are not working harder. they are wiring up systems that run without them. that is exactly the kind of build people are tearing apart inside @NeuroClubAi. not watching demos. learning to actually wire the machine and let it run. stop trading your hours for money. start building the thing that earns while you sleep.

  @OlderMedic39 @AustinTobitt @TheRoaringKitty You bought shares at $30 and calls. Again, it went to $80. Since then, turned into a holding company - posted the most profitable quarter ever by a landslide and is trying to buy eBay. The SP is manipulated down but he's doing everything he can to stop that from happening.

  @blackcatscards It’s not a public marketplace if two people are discussing price negotiation Really the card show/stack sale convention would be to extend it to the person negotiating with them having right of first refusal It isn’t crystalline, because the tech sucks (FL and WN definitely, I think eBay live too) to where payment can still be processed. Best thing you can do is arbitrate as if tech weren’t an issue, and that’d be to extend to intended buyer first

  $GME just blew past Q1 earnings by 172% and Ryan Cohen is waging a takeover bid for eBay. The community is buzzing that the short squeeze is imminent. Sales jumped 14% to $835.3 million, with collectibles soaring 65%. Ryan Cohen's bold $56 billion offer to buy eBay, while rejected, puts GME on the map for strategic moves. A new $2 billion buyback is also on the table. There's a 32% chance the stock climbs from here, driven by 14.1% short interest and the narrative momentum from Cohen's actions. If buyers step in to bet against the shorts and the collectibles trend continues, prices could get a lift. However, the stock sits below its longer-term average price, a sign that the overall trend is still pointing down. With eBay already saying no to Cohen's offer, and fundamental doubts still present for a retailer, there's a 34% chance the stock could fall further if enthusiasm fades. Keep an eye on any further moves by Ryan Cohen or the collectibles segment's performance in the next report.

  @wings_pirate Fancy door. Looks like Bowzer's face. Maybe Bowzer wants another new toy! I had come home from Florida with 2 palm tree etched champagne glasses, the last 2, wrapped in plastic. Pickles loved to chew plastic. In slow motion one fell and smashed. What do you do with 1 champagne glass? Fortunately I got more on eBay. Pickles can never be replaced.

  @Pittsburgh1Pete Same issue I’m going through but I have no eBay store, only an X account. Seems like a lot of work for minimal return. I mean what do I do with 500+ Stars of MLB from the last several years. Is there actually a market. Or just stick with player lots…and does that work?

  According to @grok, this card is not numbered. Meaning, there’s no evidence he didn’t wipe the floor or have multiple copies purchased. It’s extremely common for a flipper to buy all variants and reset the comp. Everyone in that thread in favor of this witch hunt is toxic and all deserve to be blocked and even temporarily suspended from @eBay The fact that he said it was delivered when it was not is mildly problematic, but could be true. It’s a seller skill issue to refund here.

  It’s really simple to solve the watch party tkt issue @TheGarden has. All you have to do is make the tkts non-transferable, that way resellers have no incentive to buy them up and resell on craigslist, eBay & Eventbrite etc. I’ll take 6 tkts to game 3 for solving this for you
