    @SEOSENA7 I am doing the same, I am up to around 10 issues! Where did you find the best place to shop for them? I am just using eBay. Also when did you snag vol 1 and any advice around that? Did you do first prints? That’s what I am trying to do.

    @CollectorCards2 The skeptic in me tells me that this was on purpose and only meant to drive business to your eBay account. Can you provide screenshots of eBay not allowing you to shut it down?

    I have been a seller on @eBay for 12 years with thousands of sales, but I am officially done with them! I am a top rated seller with 100% positive feedback and have done everything right for my buyers. Problem is buyers are scamming sellers too easily now... They just dont care!

    Robinhood is worth $68 billion. Coinbase is worth $50 billion. The gap isn't explained by brand spend or ad creative. It's explained by product architecture.⁣ ⁣ Robinhood stacked 11 business lines that each generate over $100 million a year. 5% cash back on their Platinum card. Crypto rewards. Premium tiers. Each product pulls users deeper into the ecosystem and makes switching feel expensive.⁣ ⁣ That's not a marketing strategy. That's a retention strategy disguised as a marketing strategy.⁣ ⁣ Most operators think about growth as a media problem. More ads, better SEO, smarter email sequences. And those things matter. But if your product isn't doing the heavy lifting, you're renting growth instead of owning it.⁣ ⁣ eBay is the cautionary tale here. They spent $2.5 billion on sales and marketing to acquire roughly one million new users. At some point the extra dollar stops working. Diminishing returns aren't a media buying problem, they're a product problem.⁣ ⁣ The Robinhood playbook is simple in theory and hard in practice. Do more for the customer at a better price, and the marketing gets easier over time.⁣ ⁣ If you're running an agency or a services business, you don't need ten offerings on day one. But when you feel the ceiling on your core service, that's the signal to expand. One adjacent service, cross-sold to people who already trust you, compounds faster than any ad campaign you'll ever run.

    @LlcPickaxe A lot of gaming companies already enforce strict distribution policies. Distributors are often required to: • Sell at a % of MSRP • Prevent wholesale accounts from flipping on eBay/Amazon • Follow allocation rules Pokémon could absolutely enforce similar policies if they wanted to. At the end of the day, no smart distributor is turning down the biggest TCG franchise over tighter wholesale terms because the product would still move instantly. None of us know the exact contracts between Pokémon and distributors, but based on how dozens of other companies operate, it’s definitely possible. And honestly, Pokémon’s response seems pretty clear already… they bought Excell to likely control some distribution themselves.

    @ryancohen Ryan Cohen dropping truth bombs again. eBay spent **$2.4 billion** on sales & marketing last year… and added basically zero meaningful user growth. Now they’re suddenly hiring a “Senior Manager of Marketing Effectiveness” to figure out where the money went? Classic corporate inefficiency. Ryan’s calling it out while actively pushing a **$56 billion** takeover bid to fix it. Shareholders deserve better than bloated spending with no results. 🦅🇺🇸✊

    @BatmanHypeGuy @ComicKing007 I have no clue what the full story is, cuz if you never got them item, how do you not get a refund? Not sure what convo went down w Ebay but you have buyers protection and when a order is delivered it usually has photo proof. And again the artist cant help you with that.

  • limitedcards_nj
    Limited Edition (@limitedcards_nj) reported

    @ghost_of_chesty @CardPurchaser This is going to be an unpopular opinion but a card is worth what someone is willing to pay for it. If I had to use eBay “comps” as a guide for every card I’ve sold over the last 15 years my collection would be a fraction of what it is. This is a non regulated market, on 99% of cards eBay price insights can be manipulated. Do you know how many times I’ve listed a card for 200-300% over what the last sale was because I felt that’s where the value of the card should be and within a year or two the card winds up selling for that. Since the start of 2026 I’ve been listing on eBay through the vault simply so I don’t have to deal with the messages coming in from buyers telling me a card I have listed at 300.00 in a PSA 10 just sold for 105.00 on a .99 cent auction and then offering me 100.00. IMO if people are going to use “eBay comps” as a pricing tool, then eBay needs to provide more analytics. Some idiot sending in 200 cards to a consignment house and then having all 200 cards run in a .99 cent auction does not set the price comp on a card. The biggest issue I have with so called comps is it’s all make believe. I don’t think people realize how much “comp” manipulation is out there.

    @foxenflask @m74ft1 I do think they will buy eBay, but it will be after another event. Come with me down a holding company thought experiment. Step 1: gme own a chunk of IEP (just under 5%) Step 2: @_CO_RY_ own a chunk of IEP (just under 5%) Step 3: buy cash settled swaps for >3% (aka, all the rest of the shares as Carl owns 87%) Swaps deliverable in next month or two after compensation award vote. Step 4: accept delivery and file form 4 showing that over 100% of shares are owned. Step 5: watch as IEP share price squeezes. (Let's say $1m per share) gme ownership will make gme price squeeze in tandem to hundreds or thousands per share. Steps 6-9: leverage shares worth trillions for loans to buy eBay. Is this what RK saw *******?

    @Han_Akamatsu For now, it's just giving $GME runway to possibly issue shares, not obligation we'll see how $EBAY acquisition unfolds Maybe RC takes his money from ebay calls, pockets profits & moves on?

    Matt Henderson (@MattxH) reported

    This dude has completely given up on running GME or any hope of resurrecting the business. He decided he wanted the eBay job instead. Now he’s just decided he’ll do the eBay job remotely. Dude try actually fixing your own business first. No one wants you to bring down eBay too.

  • JKBOGEN
    JAKE OLIVER ELLENBOGEN (@JKBOGEN) reported

    Gotta love spending an arm and a leg to get my card graded, getting a 10, putting it up on EBay and then basically being at the mercy of the dude who bought it through PSA and if he feels like paying for the card he bid on or not, Meanwhile the market continues to go down. **** this. There should be more seller protection, to give the buyer 7 days to pull out of a deal is insane.

    @ryancohen @ebay doesn't have help. It has AI chatbots that can only resolve issues nobody has. $EBAY owes me a lot of money but I already know I will never see it. They have lost hundreds of thousands over the years from losing my business. I sold millions on there.

    THE GHOST DISC WARRIOR OF KYIV (@tronbrain) reported

    @DoDataThings @unusual_whales RC can't fund it PERIOD. Printing worthless new shares and expecting eBay will accept them as payment is a fantasy. I seriously doubt that's what RC has in mind. If it's that easy, why not just issue a trillion new shares? The book value of GameStop ex cash is still $6B.

    @GregIsKitty I think the best ecommerce site basically boils down to name first policies second. eBay was smart because we didn't know that was a word for what we were doing until they told us. They need to figure out a brand new name and have strong policies thats all it is

    @AlimamyBan69781 @Adikastakes Those are physical “optional” products you’re talking about. The product I’m talking about are problem-solving, “necessary products”. Do you know what eBay is worth, before they could acquire PayPal (payment product) for $1.5b? 📌 The word “product” is vast… not limited to Tesla and designer handbags (necessary but optional items). 📌 Google types of products with examples… you’ll get my point.

    @zarny09 @ryancohen At least you got the you’re right lol. I’m not a moron, I am pointing out how I feel like this is going to go down. It’s most likely going to be dilutive and shareholders are going to get rinsed again. There is no KC shuffle surprise, he buys eBay and forgets GME. Simple.
