  @CaddieNetwork That lady at the check in counter is totally telling him he can't check in that big oversize luggage and he will have to go down stairs and check it in with all the other oversize luggage. He's telling her what's inside it is worth $15 million on eBay. She says, "BULLSHIT!!"

  @2600Hz_ Time is the best. I used to buy it on eBay used then send it to the factory if there were any blemishes. They would fix or replace for free.

  @LlcPickaxe @Catscollecttcg @Gintonki I'll give him credit, he's amazing when the market's down. I'm talking $85 booster boxes at times. But when the market's high, he's one of the biggest causes of the problem with pricing. And because he sells so much volume, he's the seller eBay pushes the most.

  @foxenflask 💯 The "suspend first & don't answer questions later" approach to content moderation is absolutely baffling to me on so many levels. eBay needs to completely overhaul policy enforcement - focus on correctly flagging real problems/violations, evenly apply consequences up to & including banning for serious/repeat offenders etc. But also provide clear communications & paths for appealing in cases of false positives or to a second chance in one off cases of misunderstandings or inadvertent mistakes. As it is now, both sellers & buyers are left to the whims of whatever clearly not ready for primetime AI system eBay is using, creating bad experiences all around.

  @OnlyCharizard @Dantheman7513 I don’t agree with that at all. I had several discussions with Peak Hobby and saw plenty of their content. This feels like making an excuse for poor platform engineering- which this likely is. If you think pokemon raffles was why, you haven’t been on any of these social platforms ever. I have seen full boats raffles off with zero oversight on FB, alcohol sales on EBay. It’s compliance issue on Xs side for the program.

  @TainoYoruba well the one i had was made in 1996 and the one I just got was made in 2001, so it may have been because it was old, but I also looked into it and it was known to have some mechanical issues and also opened it up and it was filthy 😭 so I just got a serviced one from eBay.

  On Self-destructing Books and the Permanency of Art James Patterson announced in 2015, the sale of his new book that would self-destruct within 24 hours. The details were scant as to how, exactly, it would destroy itself, but the joke remains: "Don't we wish all Patterson's books would self-destruct?" The real issue here is the permanency of art. How long should it be around? How many times should the public be able to enjoy it before it returns to dust? If a sculptor creates a bronze bust of Edgar Allan Poe, they want the sculpture to last as long as possible and be enjoyed by everyone. If a sculptor enters a sandcastle competition on Siesta Key Beach, they know the public will only enjoy it for a weekend, tops. The same goes for sidewalk chalk artists. They have a few days or until the next hard rain or flock of loose-boweled birds fly overhead to have the world enjoy their art. No one could reasonably argue that the sculptor of bronze is more of an artist than the sandcastle sculptor or sidewalk chalk artists just because her art is more permanent. Being a fiction writer and editor, I feel that books should be less permanent. Somewhere between 24 hour, self-destructing books and those we have with us from 2000 years ago, books should vanish back into dust. The ideas in the books and their characters should not go on living in the minds of readers, but the physical copy of the book should vanish sooner than later. Of course many people see a painting or a bronze sculpture. But what about live art; performance art from playwrights and ballerinas? The consumers of this art buy a ticket, see the play and the art lives on only in the consumers' minds. The businessperson inside me doesn't like selling one copy of a book that can be passed around for the next decade or two, falling in and out of the hands of hundreds of readers who have never paid me a penny for the entertainment they are about to enjoy. The money, these days, goes to Amazon and Ebay and a host of other online etailers that resell books--not the artist. I wish (selfishly) that books were the same. If only an ebook could erase after one read and a physical book should self-destruct after one read, too. James Patterson should get to work on that issue. Meanwhile, I will keep slugging away at the keyboard.

  @AJ9352 Understandable, same thing occurred to me. But then again, I make purchases from Amazon and eBay fairly regularly and have never had any issues, and they hold the same information.

  @tresamigos858 I want to do a show at my home. I’m not too thrilled with eBay and I can’t see myself doing a show. Problem is I know very little people in the area. I had great success here with stack sales. With the new limits on posts, I don’t believe that’s possible anymore.

  My son got scammed by a seller on @ebay. He used their processes to try to claw back the money. They permanently suspended his account, without addressing the issue. Cool way to treat a kid @ebay

  $100,000,000 in sales, built by a 22-year-old who dumpster-dived and shoplifted to survive Sophia Amoruso works a $13-an-hour shift checking student IDs at a San Francisco art school, partly for the health insurance to fix a hernia. Her back story reads rougher: teenage years hitchhiking the West Coast, living out of dumpsters, petty theft, until a shoplifting citation in Oregon scared her off it. From her bedroom she opens an eBay store, Nasty Gal Vintage, named after a 1975 funk album. She thrifts and dumpster-dives for clothes, then styles, shoots, writes, and ships every order herself. One of the first items she lists: a book she'd stolen as a teenager. The curve goes vertical. A few hundred thousand dollars in 2008. $23,000,000 by 2011. About $100,000,000 in annual sales by 2012, over 200 employees. Forbes crowns her one of the youngest self-made women in America, net worth near $280,000,000, "richer than Beyoncé." The 2014 memoir #Girlboss becomes a bestseller and a Netflix show. Then the sine wave completes. Venture money soured on e-commerce, the culture turned on "girlboss," staff alleged a toxic workplace. November 2016: Chapter 11. February 2017: Boohoo buys the brand for $20,000,000, a fraction of its peak. The audit: her net worth today sits near $20,000,000, and she runs a venture fund. Netflix cancelled the show after 1 season. She built $100,000,000 out of a dumpster. The venture money buried it.

  We will be forming a union for employees of Goodwill to counteract the problem of CEOs making the lion share of the profits on the backs of local communities while putting smaller eBay sellers and disabled seniors out of work. They can either raise wages or face us. @GoodwillSC

Only 89 listed for sale on eBay 321 NM on TCG Player 163 LP on TCG Thinking about slowing down buying for a bit and letting the market cool. These are getting tough to buy out at this price.

  THE CHEAPEST AI SERVER MIGHT ALREADY BE SITTING ON EBAY. One developer picked up a used Mac Pro for $800 and spent a few weeks transforming it into a dedicated local AI workstation. 00:42 — A cinematic close-up of the Mac Pro's iconic front grille, making it the perfect attention-grabbing frame for the post. The entire setup cost around $2,000—a fraction of what a comparable new machine would cost. More memory. More storage. Dedicated graphics. Local models running around the clock without paying for tokens, API calls, or monthly subscriptions. The real story isn't the Mac Pro. It's that older enterprise hardware is becoming one of the most cost-effective ways to build serious AI infrastructure. Instead of renting compute by the hour, more developers are buying retired workstations, upgrading them, and owning the hardware outright. One upfront investment. Complete privacy. No usage limits. No recurring AI bill. The second-hand workstation market may end up being one of the biggest advantages for builders who want powerful local AI without cloud costs.

  @49ersSFGiants1 @tm1515152005 Be careful with eBay AI descriptions. I find errors all the time. It will sneak in “Autographed by player” or “graded by PSA” even if it’s not. AI descriptions are a red flag for me

  @GoBirds32 @CardPurchaser Fee's are the standard 13% on eBay. And there is a huge market for the ESE program. Anything $20 and under goes ESE at 1 oz, if properly packaged they don't have an issue in the sorter. Just upped my ground advantage to $7 because of shipping price increases. Just takes time.

  WorthPoint Vault launched July 1. We sat down with the Senior Product Manager who built it. Shelley Ball came to WorthPoint as a former eBay employee, seller, and picker — someone who has lived the exact problem Vault was designed to solve. She knows what it feels like to have a collection with no documentation.
