Germainrain (@germainraine) reported@cmpayneful @GameStopOnChain Consider this a rabbit hole, but if you choose to go down, will lead to more… like XRP. Surprisingly this stuff connected to Epstein, which is why the DOJ is gonna be important. If I were to guess I think eBay was permitting trafficking kids likewise to JP Morgan

cheddar (@cheddar420yolo) reported@IndefiniteLT @VibesMBSE it was before my time but part of CARTER lore is they took a rogue wave shifting home ports from northeast to Bangor. a water column came down the hatch and the ship's computer was right there they had to get the replacement computer from ebay that was the story anyway

Eric (@GhostRunnerCard) reported@CCCollectorTCG I ship via eBay to third-party shipping companies almost daily. I've never had any concerns or issues with them. All the orders work out fine.
-
Sean (@firinzlol) reported@ThePokeMD It’s fine had a similar issue before. eBay rep basically said if it is a fake card then it will always get rejected so this “miscategorization” isn’t related to authenticity etc

Carolina24 (@c_collector24) reported@pasch_8759_eBay @CardPurchaser @tm1515152005 Had the same issue yesterday (TWICE) with the same Kirby Puckett card that I even talked to an eBay representative about and he suggested I just relist it? No idea what they’re doing with their new AI filters

Lanny Ribes (@DOCBZ17) reportedOk I took my original post down, tried to choose positivity today. But this is absolutely ridiculous. Bought a card on @ebay and got confirmation of my purchase from @PSAcard vault. $325. A few minutes later I received a notification that the card had been relisted. That’s

Macy 🛸 (@mace_face18) reported@EmilyDiorXO So stupid. I can get a new head off of ebay for ~$60 but I've literally had this vacuum less than a year. 2-3 times per week usage except the last few months just once per week. The piece itself is not broken I'm seeing but it's breaking the other removable parts (burning them)

Emily (@NoWorriesIfN0t) reportedI spent too much buying these two photocards on eBay yesterday and then I wake up to Dan wearing his hoodie in the new tiktok. Thank you universe for validating my terrible financial decisions. 🙏🏻

Adam Taylor (@adamtaylorl) reportedMe at 20: - £50K/year at Jaguar Land Rover - Acting team leader, dream job by every measure - Watching agency videos in the car park on my lunch break Me at 24: - $100M+ generated on Meta - Scaled a brand in LA from $90K to $2.1M/mo in 7 months - 40+ team members, run from Dubai My first money online was flipping scooter parts on eBay at 13. I opened my own bank account for it. Nobody told me to. I just wanted a bike and needed to make £200 to afford it. Fast forward. Late 2022 I bought an Iman Gadzhi agency course and landed a client in 2 months. They paid £900/month. I was going to say £1,000 and bottled it at the last second. Then 7 months passed and I made £80. In total. I didn't tell my friends what I was doing. I barely even told my family. There was nothing to show anyone, so I just went quiet and kept going. I handed in my notice at JLR in July 2024. Everyone at the factory thought I'd lost it – to them I was walking out of a job people wait 20 years for. So I flew to Bali alone in early 2025. I knew nobody there. I wasn't a huge fan of Bali. Then I moved to Thailand 30 days later. Hit $50K/mo whilst there. Then $100K. Now I'm living in Dubai and the business does more in a month than JLR paid me in four years. The crazy part is I wasn't good at this. I was terrible for a long time. I just kept putting in long hours and watching what happened until some of it started working. And I'm still doing that. The same method, just with bigger numbers. If a 13-year-old selling scooter parts to fund a bike can turn it into this, you're fine. Win each day. That's the whole thing.

Eric the Red / Kelenic Collector (@FatherBreaks) reported@eBay when a seller chooses your ESE option and pays for it, it should come out at that time just like any other service one chooses to ship with. It’s annoying as hell to see my balance go down 2-3 day later and have to track which fee it was for

NVSportsCards (@NVSportsCards) reported@CardsMax If Comc didn’t take 6 months to process or ship, they could have caused real problems for ebay.

Juan Tyrus (@GenesisFarmLLC) reported@tahiniok Yes it's called the AuraTone phone antenna. I you can pick one up on eBay from the manufacturer bypassing me and saving yourself some money. I don't want you to pay extra with me if money is an issue that is why it's open source. I have a post on who I go through somewhere.

Mr Hankey (@hivanchi) reported@eBay your platform is hurting buyers(im also a seller) The return process is broken. Theres no way to talk to people in the US, either by message or call. Some of your reps read the same script over and over again. Ask you for useless information that leads nowhere.

David Eyes (@EyesDavid88066) reported@benonwine Ready for some enterprising youngsters to go and take down the tents and eBay them. Used once only.

Artamos (@Artamos_) reported@MommaOcco eBay and other retailers that have 3rd party sellers need to crack down on presale/preorder listings. Should be only on hand product

StuArt (@StuHack73) reported@TheRealBonJavi @johnshanks1 They’re worth about as much as a Jim'll Fix It badge on eBay, bin them.

Zack Morris (@Palladin0) reported@packaddictsnw Never had an issue w eBay standard shipping once. Most likely buyer being shady

marqix ☆ (@fwmarqix) reportedMy librarian Janet was running a book laundering scheme where she checked out books under dead people's names, reported them lost, pocketed the replacement fees, then resold the "lost" books online. Discovered this when my dead grandmother's library card got a overdue notice. "Grandma's been dead for three years." "Oh no, our system must have glitched," Janet said. But the book was real. Someone checked out "The Goldfinch" under her name last week. I checked records. Grandma's card had been active for three years. 47 books checked out. All "lost." All replacement fees paid from a account I'd never seen. Confronted Janet. "You're running a fraud scheme with dead people's library cards." "I'm maintaining circulation metrics for funding purposes." "You're stealing." She showed me the books budget. Cut by 40% over three years. "I'm keeping this library alive. The replacement fees fund new books. The 'lost' books get resold. Money goes back into the system." "Through your pocket." "Some administrative costs are involved, yes." She'd been doing it for five years. 200 dead people's cards. $180,000 in replacement fees. Books resold on eBay for another $90,000. All money went back into library programs. Story time. Teen literacy. Computer access. "You're Robin Hood but make it books?" "I prefer Marian the Librarian but yes." I should've reported it. But the library was thriving. Programs everywhere. New books weekly. Then an auditor noticed the pattern. Investigated. Found everything. Janet was fired. Police got involved. Community rallied. "Janet saved this library." Petition to drop charges: 4,000 signatures. Charges dropped. Janet was rehired with "enhanced oversight." She's not allowed to handle money anymore. But circulation is down 30%. Programs are being cut. Janet started a nonprofit. "Friends of the Library Foundation." Runs fundraisers. All legal now. Raised $200,000 last year. Library is thriving again. I asked if she missed the scheme. "Every day. It was elegant. But this is better. Harder, but better." My grandmother's library card finally got deactivated. Last book checked out under her name: "How to Get Away With Murder." Janet swears it wasn't her. I believe her but I also don't.

auburn35 (@35auburn) reported@renoipgp That's true, I was just highlighting a new account that registered after the other eBay accounts were shutdown. Obviously very little effort from eBay to keep problem sellers off the site.

EverydayReseller (@EverydayResell) reportedDay 208 Total sales: $737.96 eBay earnings: $504.99 Buy cost (COG): $82.27 Net profit: $422.72 ROI: 514% Items sold: Electrical equipment, printer ink, printer parts, automotive transmission parts, marine electronics, & a toilet repair component. Another strong day. $737 in sales & over $422 in net profit from just 7 completed sales. What stands out to me is the variety. Electrical, automotive, marine, printing, plumbing, you don't necessarily need to specialize in one category to build a profitable eBay business. You need to get good at finding the right products at the right price. That's still the biggest lesson I've learned through this journey. A $100 sale isn't nearly as exciting if you paid $90 for it. But when you can consistently find inventory for a fraction of its potential selling price, the numbers start working in your favor. Today's $82.27 in COG turned into $422.72 in profit. That's the game. Buy right. List consistently. Be patient. Keep improving. 208 days down. On to Day 209. 📦💪

Bird Dog Gaming (@BirdDogGaming) reportedIt’s so easy to open your phone, hop on eBay and buy a PS2 game Any time I want to add an NES game to the collection I have to sit down and figure out what inserts came with it and which variant I want to buy and THEN dig through listings to see if there’s even a CIB listed

PokéCardsDaily (@PokeCardsDaily) reported@Oscvr9_ Hello! Best way to price sealed is to refer to eBay last solds for sealed - do not count any unsealed. Often I find issue with sold items under “best offer” and the listed price being the sold price. For this reason I always use 130point to get most accurate prices w/ offers.
