  @WeebyRevy My old OG XBox and PS2 had their lasers break. At that point, I sold them for dirt cheap. I imagine these conversions are often-times broken units bought for pennies on the dollar from EBay.

  @wermzDKC We use to have a goodwill here but it closed down. Now we have something called red racks. I buy a lot of vhs at them. I looked on eBay but those people are proud of their prices.

  @WeebyRevy To be fair, the console could be broken. My original Dreamcast won't play discs anymore. It was cheaper to buy a new Dreamcast (and I did) than repair my original one. A lot of people buy and sell broken consoles on Ebay to use for things like this.

  @eBay @HollyTurbill It’s a waste of time Holly. It’s all just bots and automated responses when you have any issues with eBay.

  In 2006, an Australian man attempted to sell New Zealand on eBay. The bidding reached $3,000 before eBay shut it down.

  @KLeinzz0xL Just a hobby. I buy cheap broken consoles on Ebay and fix them. If I don't have one I add it to my collection, otherwise I trade them into the game store or gift them to friends. This particular ps1 is going to a friend who's ps1 broke recently

  @ToobEwe45597 @ATRightMovies Actually have this issue. Bought it on Ebay.

  @dizzy_dman Depends. From the actual team, hit or miss? Actually from someone like eBay, definitely stanky Recently received a Thrashers jersey (rip) and the jersey smelled like cheap cologne. Was terrible. Received another game worn jersey and there was a stain that got progressively worse

  @pmitu I disagree. I spoke to several eBay resellers about the issues they were having. Built Privy - an eBay product intelligence tool that solved those problems. But I’m struggling to get active users!

  The crazier part is TCGPlayer is so much worse. I went back to ebay and it was relieving, but still a big problem. TCGplayer is like 2 weeks after you mark as shipped or sometning. On TCGPlayer I constantly ran into liquidity issues and had more money pending than liquid.

  @TheLazyArtist67 @NovineLeaks I hope Ebay also does something too bc if this does get take down, he might go back there

  @SamuelMunroe @ClassicComics3 I’ve only seen them in the wild a couple of times. Mostly I hit antique shops for this stuff. Maybe I’ll do EBay when I get down to where I only need a couple to complete. If I see them the Hitchcock Investigators I’ll definitely grab them.

  @premiercards_2 @eBay It’s such a terrible “service” they’re offering - just put EVERY order at risk.

  @LememeJames ******* scalpers are literally greedy *** clowns !!! Scalpers hurt people trying to collect for the hobby by trying to gouge actual TCG collectors….its one thing to buy a pack and down the road trade or sell your cards but taking entire shelves to upsell on eBay for 4x too far!

  @RobbieRaygun Other issues with ebay lately are they insist you return counterfeit items to the seller enabling them to scam another buyer in the future

  @premiercards_2 @eBay Yeah they definitely have people working at the bay that have no clue about trading cards! AND FIX YOUR STANDARD ENVELOPE PROGRAM EBAY IT SUCKS ***!

  @TugboatPhil @freddavelynn Years ago I bought several years issues of the American Rifleman magazine from the 1950s & 1960s on ebay. None of the mail order ads had zip codes.

  @chuybaca @eBay @CardPurchaser Great point, simple idea, and agreed - should be a straightforward fix.

  @ValtSaber Oh I never used eBay you know my account got taken down for some reason I don't why when I sign up

  For a hat guy - and I have a couple hundred all told - the Masters hat in the same green as the jacket is a near holy grail. They don’t sell it, and if it shows up on eBay they run that thing down and you never get invited back.

  @2j4ez The same problem as with all old cassette decks: the belt. It’s made of rubber, and rubber ages. Either it slips or it’s already snapped. Opening it up and replacing it isn’t difficult; replacement belts are available for very little money, e.g. on eBay

  @goodapoll0iv I like this. I bought Watchmen again off eBay years ago and I accidentally bent up the spin of issue 12. I paid over $200 for all 12 comics. I just needed what I owned as a kid. Got it back. Good read.

  I wish people like @eBay @eBay_UK would stop changing ****. Trying to list an item with MY chosen method of postage isn’t allowed now? Wtf is going on with the world. Stop fixing things that aren’t ******* broken.

  @trunkofcards @CardPurchaser The seller shouldn’t care about someone else’s eBay fees. Not the sellers problem.

• 
  EMAC (@emac_rex) reported 56 minutes ago

  @FlockMastaMon @CardPurchaser Happens on eBay sometimes too. I’ve gotten a negative review because a dude found a better deal on a card the next day and wanted a full refund, but I had already sent it to the post office and have a no returns policy. They like to take out operator error on the seller.

  @puppyxbite You can look for skateboards on eBay and fix em up + paint them

  @quinnysoda It’s OK it happens. I’m pretty sure if I do decide to get it down the line I can find it on eBay.

  @Samaytwt Look you can buy a decent second hand i5 i7 server put Linux on it with 32gb or more for less than £200 all you need to do is terminal into that to code from and you can do that from a 2012 MacBook Air for £60 from eBay. Coding it 2026 shouldn’t be expensive!

  @Cross_Malaki Many gaming consoles play DVDs, too. A CD/DVD player attachment you can connect to a computer is dirt cheap at Walmart. Combo TV & DVD players are still manufactured, or you can get retro ones on eBay. And yes, there are still people who know how to fix them if things break.
