  Saul (@SaulSellsStuff) reported 5 minutes ago

  @theoliverxp Hey! They do, we did launch eBay module. It is down for an update but will be back soon. In the meantime though I’ve posted over $1000 in profit from amazon to eBay right here on X in the last 30 days by using the amazon to amazon module. If a deal is good enough for Amazon but I’m gated it’s usually worth a look on eBay.

  @CardsMax What’s the eBay user name. Individual needs to be identified to help others not deal with similar issues. Sellers of this nature hurt the rest of us by pushing potential buyers off the platform.

  @lja_xx Things like that I normally don’t sell on the likes of vinted, cash and collection and never from my home. It’s terrible so is ebay they always take buyers side

  @SecretService They robbed me by blackmailing because of 2 stolen phones we purchased from eBay without our knowledge And blackmailed me that if I don’t give the money on my bank account , they will shut down our business , and Scott Windish opened my car glove box and took 3k cash and took my phone on the way to Wells Fargo and we waited at the Wells Fargo teller line 10 min and teller wrote a 39.000 dollars cashiers check under SECRET SERVICE and after they took me to STARBUCKS and made me sign paperworks…

  @DeanAndrew21454 Wait wait wait GameStop is buying eBay and you think it being down $25 per share is a bad thing? You can’t be serious

  H.B. (@GMC_Capital) reported 17 minutes ago

  @madskilz15 @CardPurchaser There are quite a few listings like this on eBay. eBay said there isn’t anything they can do & there’s no “authenticity” for packs. Once you purchase/open, & if seller doesn’t have returns turned on, nothing you can do aside from leaving bad feedback (then they’ll shut acct down)

  eBay — 1995 Pierre Omidyar did something even more fascinating. He created AuctionWeb as essentially a side project. One of the first things sold was a broken laser pointer. Someone actually bought it.

  @ebaygme_rh @GMEBAYonSOL That big candle up in the second screenshot was the day that GameStop sent. It’s unsolicited offer to eBay, and after it came back down, it came back down to a higher floor

  As of today, I have nothing saved for later. Nothing saved on Instagram. No watchlist on Netflix, HBO, whatever. No Amazon or eBay wish list. No articles saved in Chrome. No bookmarks on X, nothing saved on Reddit. No screenshots of things to read or photos for my moodboard. I keep one simple excel where I jot down books and films, with full awareness that I've already read the books I was supposed to read and seen the films I was supposed to see. I'm full of knowledge, full of inspiration. I refuse to absorb anything new, anything new only slows me down from the thing I actually have to do: create. All I care about now is getting what's inside me out into the world, as writing, as photography, in whatever form it takes.

  @Cody_Is_Boring @musicbykwiz @JoshInEncinitas The bits get expensive..I've used some cheap Ebay ones just to test them. They weren't terrible, but cost very little. I keep a few for backup.

  Broseph Smith (@brosephsmith420) reported 34 minutes ago

  Just had ebay authenticators mark an expensive item i sold as "unverified" (not counterfeit) Think it's bc my dumbass listed it as 5 mm rather than 4 mm, or bc I didn't clean enough silver oxidation off, bc that ***** is definitely real Oh well. 250 bucks down the drain. Live and learn (or I'll just kms)

  Torx 🐆⛽ (@Spottyroo) reported 40 minutes ago

  @JDubb1953 Yeah I thought about it but none of the vehicles I need are in any yards local and they want too much for used junk. Sucks because the new parts are either ridiculously cheap and questionable, or expensive. Like a power steering pump for this… $98 new for a Chinese something junk. Or $500 for a new mopar one. No other options. I could ebay one but still issues there. Or the alternator I need, $180 because I don’t have a core and that’s a questionable reman. Only new one is chinese junk. Ebay wants more than $100 for a used one anyway that looks like it lived underwater. So I end up spending $1K less and have to figure out how I’m running cables and hoses across everything…. Nah it’s worth not dealing with it.

  @Wildebee_ I bought my canon laser all in one off ebay (i know i know) anyway it is such a hassle to print because it keeps giving error code 635 on top of telling me the ink cartridges are fraudulent. Apparently the printer was sold overseas then brought to texas where the seller sold it and shipped it to me. It was brand new $400. I should have known better.

  TSN CARDS (@TSNCARDS) reported 45 minutes ago

  @bigwerms Side notes, do you know ebay in Europe doesnt have the $0.78 PWE option. Thats why no low end cards can be sold online and nobody seems to fix that issue.

  @Gbpoker0710 @eBay Does the buyer have a phone number listed? You could try calling or texting. If you do cancel use problem with buyers address as the reason.

  Chris Top Fur (@christopfur11) reported 48 minutes ago

  @CardsMax Should have to pay immediately IMO. If there is an issue with paying within 24 hours the buyer should reach out and let the seller know. When I used to sell on eBay, and most items were pretty low end after about 24 hours my success rate of being paid was like 10%.

  Looks like @Playstation only had enough Wolverine plates for scalpers was in my cart and error processing cause item was swiped from my cart. But they are already up on Ebay for hundreds.

  @Jaime91340945 @DutchDane59 Yes, you can swap batteries, screens, etc. If your phone (carrier) uses a SIM, there are MANY brand new "older phones" for sale on eBay and Amazon for under $200. Buy it, pop in your old SIM and away you go. No need for a "new contract", just fix or grab a new, old phone.

  🧵 the forgotten market the standard pushback on any marketplace founder (few are left) going after horizontal C2C: „it‘s too hard. We looked at this space (and lost a lot of money)“  the core mechanic is trivial:  1. build a a place to buy and sell 2. onboard regular sellers 3. onboard regular buyers 4. match them 5. monetize the network asset  It‘s 2026 and every country has a dominant horizontal marketplace that dates back at least 10-30 yrs Founding dates Desktop era Craigslist: 1995 eBay: 1995 Blocket 🇸🇪: 1996 Ricardo 🇨🇭: 1999 Mercado Libre 🇦🇷: 1999 Gumtree 🇬🇧: 2000 Leboncoin 🇫🇷: 2006 … Mobile era Vinted 🇪🇺: 2008 OfferUp : 2011 Depop: 2011 Carousel 🇸🇬: 2012 Wallapop 🇪🇸: 2013 Facebook Marketplaces: 2016 … Void 2026 Combined valuation of all of them ~$250B I‘ve been trying to find NEW startups over the past year that go after this market and asked investors I talked to if they can point at any. The only one I found that was geared at regular sellers horizontally was tradepost raising $4M last year.  Their last iOS update was 6 months ago and hope that just means a stealth v2 or smth is coming, because it feels strangely lonely.  Like the one lunatic from Switzerland with a tiny team of 2 1/2 and the monetary firepower of a spoon trying to win a ~$250B industry.  $250B only includes what‘s visible: 80% are throwing (un)used goods away or let them depreciate. So why are we/startups are not trying to solve this? It‘s not like it‘s a niche problem or the prize of winning is too small. We now have global solutions for almost anything and our horizontal C2C trade infrastructure is running on Pearl or Java (mostly isolated by country). The UI and UX are like asking kids today to play Command and Conquer and Halo (no, they are not as good as you remember, don‘t try playing them and destroy your awesome memory) there are two camps: a) everyone failed, so it doesn’t work b) verticals win and a newer third one c) agents will replace them I‘m not going to address a) for obvious reasons  b) logical vertical fallacy that consumer convenience revolves around having ten apps to sell or buy something (un)used. c) I see some agent probability for (non-discretionary) B2C and B2B, but C2C would require the 80% offline supply to be online in the first place (which agent is taking the picture?). Automation for regular sellers is still the right move (there is also some element of selling hobby though) But C2C buyers are more like treasure hunters. They love exploring, going to the flea market. It‘s a hobby/passion. Finding that vintage lamp from the 60s for a bargain.  My daughter went happily shopping today and it wasn’t about buying smth specific, it was about the journey much more than the destination. (I personally love discovering and hate shopping btw) We‘re not going to send agents playing beach volleyball and proudly tell our friends we automated leisure.  It‘s why so many of us spend so much time on x, when we could also just ask Claude: „give me cool things to read“.  C2C has this social/culture layer that‘s really hard to capture without a timeline/feed and C2C UI tooling (swipes, taps, maps, connections, etc).  It‘s not as transactional as „how many vitamins does chocolate have?“ We addressed „big market“ and „horizontal UI/UX app layer“  I guess the most important question remains:  Why did nobody solve this yet and users are now even going to private chat groups? The people who tried were beyond smart, well funded (we‘re talking billions that were burnt). Some managed to put a (big) dent in e.g. eBay like Vinted for fashion, but we‘re still ridiculously far away from a Spotify like dominance over the global horizontal C2C app layer. Many failed to win the grand prize. Cold-start funding would be the easy answer (there are many people on earth). This is missing a much bigger issue: we forgot how building C2C works.

  @james_droog @lauriewired A similar thing almost happened to me on eBay when I bid on an okay-but-not-great vintage laptop with Nvidia 3D Vision: "set max bid to €600 so I won't have to monitor the auction", but someone matched me and (fortunately) outbid me! (they backed away after, but not my problem)
