    Spot on he does need help. Put him in touch with @eubankslastpen for some training. He will sort that sleeping problem right out. He'll never again nod off while on the piss. His Ebay account might take a beating though.

    @mnchies Problem with investing in cards is liquidity I had a basketball/baseball collection and it took me forever to offload + with the eBay fees and post office trips it simply wasn’t worth the time & effort… It became a tedious pain in the *** even as my collection did 2-3 x…

    @ValueAddedRS @mazenra eBay goes down for x minutes, platform y traffic and sales goes up by z. Cost to disrupt is less than the increase in sales….you have motive. But no one would be bold enough to actually hire someone to do this…unless you have thousands of seller accounts.

    I’d be mad if I was a seller and had to honor prices while eBay was down.

    @eBay Wow... can you at least get your website to work - I went to place a bid on an item and keep getting the message refresh your browser, done same result, cleared cache same issue. Yet I can post items for sale with easy and no issues. Your automated customer service is worthles

    @mattvanswol You all do realize that the bulk of what all is stolen is being resold online. Either on EBay or Amazon by third party sellers. The problem isn’t the actual thieves stealing it. It’s who they are selling it to. Chances are, you are buying stolen merch.

    @mazenra eBay is largely accessible again & Down Detector reports have subsided for now - but users are still seeing lingering issues with watch lists & errors when trying to access messages & when sending or accepting offers. 💸 Still no further comment from $EBAY on root cause or timeline for full resolution.

    Ebay won't load on my desktop. Works okay on my phone. I heard that the site was down yesterday too. Won't take too many down days to really impact earnings.

    Palmer Luckey sold Oculus to Facebook for over $2B. We had him on MFM awhile back. His story: - At 14, scrubbed boats at a boat yard for minimum wage. On the side, bought broken iPhones on eBay, fixed them, and resold them. Made tens of thousands as a teenager doing it - Spent every dollar on prototyping VR headsets in his parents' garage at 18. - At 19, Facebook offered him $1B for Oculus. He said no. They came back months later with a $2B deal. - Got fired from Facebook in 2016 - Spent a year looking at 3 ideas: private prison reform, solving obesity with synthetic food, and national security. Picked national security and started Anduril in 2017. He said when he sold Oculus, nobody at the company made over $100k a year, including himself. They called it the "100K Club".

    🚨BREAKING NEWS: EBAY DOWN: NOBODY CAN BUY ANYTHING NOW BREAKING NEWS. Alright listen up people. eBay just went completely dark during peak shopping hours and like, millions of people simultaneously discovered they can't sell their stuff. The entire platform is cooked — we're talking cascading server failures, the API is down, and their tech team is lowkey in full panic mode right now. Support is getting absolutely FLOODED. And here's what's actually insane — people are realizing how utterly dependent we've all become on this one website for literal income. Some folks are joking about it but bestie, others are watching their entire business disappear in real time. We still don't know what caused it or when it's coming back. You've never read the news like this. ToonBrief. Free on the App Store. #breakingnews #news #toonbrief

    That's a quad-socket server board (4 Xeon CPUs visible) stuffed with ~1TB RAM across dozens of DIMMs. Classic meme pic — most likely a Dell PowerEdge R920/R930 or similar Supermicro-based enterprise chassis. Used ones pop up on eBay cheap, but they're power-hungry beasts. Great for VMs/databases if you have the electric bill for it.

    @PiratesFaithful @eBay @PSAcard Been through that before with a few damaged cards I've received. Just not a fun process at all & core problems remain unresolved.

    @ebay Why aren't you being honest with your sellers and buyers as to what's going on? You've been down for over 24 hours now, due to the hack. Give us an update as to what's going on. This is impacting many online businesses.

    @KT_Commenter @poke_emilys @NewAgeCardKings EVERYONE uses eBay/tcgplayer comps I don’t see someone at a card show going “market is $50 but TCGplayer takes 10% so I’ll give you $45” Every day I login onto this app I swear we get dumber as a people.
