  Former CEO of PayPal + Inuit Bill Harris on Moneywise today. He broke down his portfolio and expenses (and what it was like working w/ Elon + thiel. - Net worth: ~$100m. Divorce cut it roughly in half - ~$50m in operating companies he's starting, ~$25m diversified securities, ~$25m bonds. No PE/hedge/alts - "absurd fees" - PayPal/eBay exit: personally "more than 20 million, less than 50" - Personal Capital: sold to Empower for $825m with $23b AUM; his take was north of $100m post-tax - New venture: ~$10m of his own money in - Total annual burn: ~$70-80k all in, property tax included ("well less than a hundred thousand bucks") - No mortgage (cottage paid off), no car, bikes to work - Owned a ton of stuff (houses, cars, planes). Sold it all because it took too much time to maintain.

  @CardPurchaser How many cards are being sent now at $80? I doubt everyone will stop. Plus ebay showed me a 49.99 grade with psa offer on a card i was looking at so some people are probably using that. This could be the new model. Prices may never come back down.

  Alex Thompson (@sierrastrades) reported 30 minutes ago

  TL;DR Sales down, profits up, cash lower because they turned the eBay options into real shares. • Sales: $780–800M vs $972M last year. Drop is mostly Switch 2 anniversary, store closures, and selling France. • Operating income: $150–170M vs $66M. Core operations got a lot more profitable. • Net income: $290–310M vs $169M. Includes ~$238M eBay gain, minus ~$75M digital-asset loss. • Cash: $5.05–5.07B vs $8.69B last year. Cash fell because they converted the eBay derivatives into 43.4 million eBay shares, now worth about $4.95B. • Full results drop September 8.

  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.

  @davidareader @yeehahboogie @eevblog Ebay seem to have bought the Inpost contract from Vinted, not been option for while on Vinted. Standard US monopoly their basic search is full of issues, zero innovation but buy up the competition, or their main postage method anyway Need to rename as eDropshipbay since 2004..

  Day 208 Total sales: $737.96 eBay earnings: $504.99 Buy cost (COG): $82.27 Net profit: $422.72 ROI: 514% Items sold: Electrical equipment, printer ink, printer parts, automotive transmission parts, marine electronics, & a toilet repair component. Another strong day. $737 in sales & over $422 in net profit from just 7 completed sales. What stands out to me is the variety. Electrical, automotive, marine, printing, plumbing, you don't necessarily need to specialize in one category to build a profitable eBay business. You need to get good at finding the right products at the right price. That's still the biggest lesson I've learned through this journey. A $100 sale isn't nearly as exciting if you paid $90 for it. But when you can consistently find inventory for a fraction of its potential selling price, the numbers start working in your favor. Today's $82.27 in COG turned into $422.72 in profit. That's the game. Buy right. List consistently. Be patient. Keep improving. 208 days down. On to Day 209. 📦💪

  @ThePokeMD It’s fine had a similar issue before. eBay rep basically said if it is a fake card then it will always get rejected so this “miscategorization” isn’t related to authenticity etc

  I think that every time EBay or another platform has issues they should reduce the fees for the equivalent amount of time.

  @AirtelNigeria @FarooqOreagba Airtel Nigeria, why is your service so poor? I’ve tried registering on eBay, but the verification code never arrives on my Airtel line. Yet, the same code comes through immediately on MTN. What’s wrong with Airtel? Is Nigeria cursed? Please fix your SMS service!

  Anyone else notice how much better listing has gotten? I hadn’t listed cards on eBay in a while because of the fees and how long it took. Used to be 3–5 minutes per card. Listed a few Laz and Rainiel cards today and the AI had me down to about a minute each. @CardPurchaser

  @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.
