  @robert_m45 @Pirat_Nation then when your discs that you cant use become so rare you can charge 3 times the amount you paid for it on ebay blaming disc drives not working is lame when a game licence runs out that gets taken from you for good and you signed up for it...we all did with any digital game.

  @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.

  @StonksMae Problem is everyone is confused and there is no clear direction. Buying eBay or no? CEO unpaid or getting 35B? More dilution coming? Bonds being converted or not? Too much uncertainty

  @SonicBlueRanger The prices for them on eBay aren’t terrible in all fairness, given that not all that many copies were published. It just depends if you’re willing to spend anywhere from £30 to nearly £50 a piece for them.

  @clarkknowscards @phatjer300 @OnlyCharizard If you select “buyer requested cancellation” it will not ding your eBay account. All the other options from the drop down menu do. I lost top rated seller once for cancelling just 2 orders within a couple months.

  @WristByAde I wonder about authenticity when I buy watches off eBay. I don’t spend much and I can’t imagine the oddballs I do buy are worth the trouble to counterfeit. I think the big issues I have are with “Frankenwatches” so watches that are put together with non-original parts

  @OffDaHook35 Sold some slabs at LCS today and narrowed my pc down to a small box. I have a 2000 card lot on eBay to sell the rest. A lot are cards from packs I ripped this year. LCS wouldn’t even look at them

  @thewebbie @amazon The fluctuating delivery times I can live with; I just expect that as a result of the many variables inherent in online shopping. The packaging quality, however, is a big problem. Amazon built its sales volume on cut-rate shipping deals with USPS and UPS that other retailers couldn't match. That could hold out unless -guess what- we suffer an inflationary period driving up energy and labor costs. Now they can't afford to pay for proper boxes, packing, and skilled workers to sort & pack properly. (For anyone with an eBay side hustle you know that's actually quite a skill). So I concur that the amount of large items shipped in cheap envelopes is increasing, meaning we get more broken and missing stuff. Amazon will keep doing this until the cost of refunds and returns overwhelm the packaging savings...and I fear the end of the "free shipping" era is near.

  Just bought 180 tested video games across generations for about $2.50-$3 / game. The previous batch was $2/game. Sounds crazy when you can see on eBay some of these only selling for $6-8. But I also see something that made me question this. 52 minutes south of me a video game store exists that sells these games for at least $20+ The same games you’d comp on eBay for much less. Why? Because it’s hard to trust random sellers and in this niche I’ve see people want to buy from people they like, people they trust and people they vibe with. Therefore I’m buying a disc refurbishment machine and offering a “warranty” to my future customers where if a disc stops working, we’ll fix it to the best of our ability. I’m also packaging games with the consoles we test and increasing the prices and will have a branded website off of marketplace platforms. Does this take reselling to the next level? Yes. Will it be difficult for me? No. It’ll actually be quite fun and we’ll act a little bit like game informer for retro games. If it doesn’t workout? Cool. If it does? That’s a fun way to resell.

  HowlingHemorrhoids (@DeadlessHick) reported 28 minutes ago

  A funny thing about ebay for me is when I get a wild hair up my *** on buying stuff, like a new HDD to replace a dead one in my server, I'll peruse the auctions with current bids ~50% below market value, and then place a max bid of ~80% market value. Often times I do this, I see that someone else has already placed a higher max bid than I'm willing to do. So I feel like a gremlin running around ebay casually helping sellers and causing the other bidders to lose a chance at a true deal. I got a $420 camera lens for $200 doing this method though.

  I’ve started a daily series on projects that already have something real but the presentation still hasn’t caught up to its potential. Project Breakdown #72 — @ChaseCardApp ChaseCard is a live aggregator. You name the card. Set, language, condition, budget. They watch every marketplace. Beta is open. Alerts are already going out. Umbreon 38% under. Gengar 45% under. That is a real loop. The page does not show the loop. It shows a still of a deal and a link to apply. A collector already hunting grails will get it. A stranger sees another TCG promo card. Two problems. The watch is invisible. The product is not “Umbreon is cheap.” The product is ChaseCard catching it across shops while you sleep. That is motion. A price still is what eBay already posts. Motion is the alert hitting, the listing opening, the card matching the chase. The feed is one template. Photo. Percent. Link. Fine for proof. Weak as a brand. A ChaseCard frame should be the chase itself. Card. Target price. Hit. Same rails every alert. Then the beta link has a face. They already have the deals. The page should look like the watcher, not like the listing. See you on the next one.

  @JDAlexOfficial @eBay They are bloated and it’s why many individuals online rally against using eBay, Walmart, Amazon, and big corporations that have pulled the wool over our eyes and kind of forced lots of local businesses to shut down

  The most reliable way to misread an earnings report is to start at the bottom line. $GME just posted preliminary net income up roughly 78% on net sales down roughly 19%. Both numbers are real. Only one of them is about the business. The quarter, company figures: -net sales: $780M to $800M, vs $972.2M a year ago -net income: $290M to $310M, vs $168.6M -operating income: $150M to $170M, vs $66.4M The bridge from falling sales to rising profit is one line. Roughly $238M of gains on an eBay derivative asset and an equity investment, less roughly $75M of digital-asset losses. about $163M of pre-tax marks. For scale: that eBay exposure is carried at about $4.947B. the company books about $790M of sales in a quarter. when the portfolio is that big, the income statement is partly a report on the portfolio. Credit where due: operating income more than doubled. that is a bigger percentage jump than the net income line everyone quotes. smaller, tighter, better-run retailer. real progress. not the headline story. Keep this part: -net income up while revenue is down: find the non-operating line first. it is usually one line, and it is usually named -size the securities book against the operating result. a $5B position swamps a sub-$200M quarter, in both directions -falling sales with improving operating income is a cost story. real, but a different story from the headline I am fully invested, and none of this changes that. guidance direction and price reaction have been disagreeing all earnings season. last Thursday five of seven reporters raised guidance and four of the seven closed lower. reading the price as the verdict on the numbers is the error. The case against: I may be underselling the operating turn, which more than doubled at every point of the guided range. and these are preliminary figures. no call is scheduled, and complete results are due September 8. $GME $EBAY

  @FoxgirlGoRawr Yep! Overall, I've not had terrible luck with returns given the amount of things I've sold on ebay but it does happen from time to time & for some cursed reason I've had a few returns in the past couple weeks. It's abnormal to have multiple in such a short time and I don't like it lol
