  @raw4lyfe I think GameStop will crash as well back down to all-time lows. Fundamentally no debt but they also have dead money just sitting there Yes they mentioned getting eBay I don't think that's going to happen but like I said they're trying to find their next thing.

  @EyelandAes One of these "phone shops" bought a £750 camera from me and returned me an identical broken camera on ebay. There is NOTHING I can do about it.

  I'm burnt out. Being pushed to "grow". Promoting a GoFundMe that's going nowhere. Selling on eBay. GAD out of control. A mobile home lot that's looking pretty weedy & I have to clean it myself. I still don't have a working furnace & the drains are still slow. My balance is still "off" & probably always will be. Now let's add a worsening back pain. I'm disabled FFS! There's not one moment where I can sit back & relax. Sleep is the only place I can get relief. Accidents do happen. 💊

  Free Shipping: The Silent Sales Booster I started wondering about buyer paid shipping vs free shipping especially when the total cost to the buyer ends up exactly the same. One listing with a higher price and free shipping another with a lower price plus a separate shipping fee. It pulled me down a rabbit hole of reports and studies and I wanted to share what I found because it's pretty eye opening for anyone flipping on eBay. Free shipping often wins on conversions and sales speed even when the buyer pays the same amount overall. Amazon Prime set the bar high. Recent data puts US Prime members around 180 to 200 million so roughly 60 to 70 percent of adults have free fast shipping as their normal. Shoppers expect it, 66% want free on every order, 80% expect it above a threshold and up to 84% have bought specifically because shipping was waived. Free just feels like a win emotionally and people jump. Charging shipping as a separate line creates extra FRICTION. Buyers lock onto the lower item price and treat the shipping fee like an annoying add on. They downplay it or get irritated even when the math is identical. That extra step at checkout can make them hesitate or bounce. Tran's 2020 and 2024 analyses of eBay Germany data confirm buyers shrug off small separate shipping fees but demand jumps sharply when it's free. Marketplace insights seal it. Free shipping listings get 15 to 25 percent more views and 10 to 18 percent better conversion rates even at matching totals. eBay favors them in search visibility too which helps everything compound. Free cuts the hassle. No surprise fees at checkout. Feels cleaner and more valuable. For my flips I've gone 100% to free shipping after some experimenting over the last 4 months. Data points to faster sales less push back though category and margins decide the final call. Anyone else gone down this rabbit hole? You charging separate or going free?

  I found a Jayson Tatum signed Celtics jersey on eBay that looked wrong. The listing was not from a throwaway account. It was from rockymountainsportsmemorabilia: 100% positive feedback, 183 feedback, U.S. item location, and a $799 price. The jersey had a #Fanatics @Collect hologram, A598877, and Fanatics returns a live Jayson Tatum jersey record with the inscription "The Problem." But that is the real problem: when you check the number on the authenticator's site, you get a record. You do not get the fraud item's marketplace history, its source, or proof that the autograph in front of you is the original authenticated item.

  @RWToronto @mallen20243 @McFaul If someone had a trillion dollars just sitting in a bank account, yes that would be an eye bleeding ridiculous amount of money that they would never be able to use. It would be unconscionable in some sense. Elon does not have a trillion dollars though. In 2002 when Paypal was sold to ebay, he made $180 million after paying about 35% in taxes on the income. Those getting the payout now could try to do what Elon did. He invested $100 million to start SpaceX and $70 million into Tesla. Now 24 years later after insurmountable odds those companies are theoretically worth trillions and his share of those companies are worth over a trillion. But if he tried to sell all his shares, the value of them would collapse along with everyone's pension and retirement fund as the market can not absorb it and he would have to pay a tremendous amount of taxes and then he would no longer have any control over Tesla or SpaceX. His percent control hasn't changed much over the years, it's just theoretically worth more on paper. He probably has millions in his bank account, not billions. And he uses the capital he has to build new companies or innovations like Neuralink or xAI. All of these benefit us. All of his companies are benefitting us. We will be able to have cheap robotaxis providing transport everywhere, making commutes easier, cheaper and safer while reducing carbon emissions. Lives will be saved from reduced accidents and pollution. Starlink is already on many planes transforming our flying experience and productivity while connecting people in remote areas that traditionally had little access, equalizing opportunities across the world. His Neuralink is helping dozens of paralyzed people to be able to interact with and control a computer or prosthetic. His Optimus robots will transform factories, homes and businesses. XAI will make work faster and easier, solve problems, develop applications. His investments have all provided tremendous benefit to us and the future benefit is a magnitude greater.

  Ethan | Wax Cache (@wax_cache) reported 30 minutes ago

  Hands down, the best way to build software is to actually use it. I’ve never sold cards at a show. I’ve never really called myself a dealer. I sell low-end cards on eBay, have a few decent cards, but nothing I’d normally call “showcase ready.” But this weekend, I get to bring Wax Cache to a big card show. So I’m wearing both hats: developer and dealer. I’ve been prepping the app, building out the demo, figuring out what cards go in the case, how I want the table to feel, and what the experience should be when someone walks up. And honestly? Using Wax Cache like a dealer already exposed a few areas that need to be better. That’s the whole point. Build it. Use it. Break it. Improve it. This weekend isn’t just a demo. It’s real-world testing in the exact environment I built this for!

  @eBay_UK Once again they have allowed fraud. Perhaps eBay should do AML checks and request identification before an account can be opened. I have written to you on here as your customer service just says we ran in to a problem please try again later….. really helpful

  If someone were to send like $2,000 to $ThatUnknownOre on cash app, they'd be my best friend forever. I could really use the money right now, so I can buy stuff on eBay that I need. I mean, my phone is having difficulty charging, because it's charging port is broken.

  @HieisFlame @GreatCthulhu420 I have a few. Sometimes you can find them cheeper, used, on eBay. They are basically chalkware, but a bit studier. I know this because my cat smashed one off the top of a bookshelf. It superglued back together very well, and hasn’t re-broken through several movings.

  @ScarletSprites So what are you playing on this thing? Got some games or a flash cart? I got mine from my brother a while back. He was bored over Covid and he would buy these things off of eBay broken by the dozens and recap them and do battery and screen mods. He game time the one I have and I got a flash cart for it but honestly, I haven’t played it much.

In 2020, eBay executives & employees launched a full harassment campaign against a small Massachusetts couple who ran a newsletter mildly critical of eBay’s policies.

  the thing about these gachas is they are not a flavour of the month play, the long term potential is INSANE. down the line once liquidty is there they can eat ebays lunch by providing a marketplace for a 1/10th the cost of what ebay charges to sell. its literally genius long term the marketplace will eventually make more money then the gacha itself imo, but the gacha is necessary now to get the cards on chain

  @Diana_1776 That is super cool! I didn't keep hardly anything from my parents' house. I moved to Florida and took only the bare minimum. I have a son who is a minimalist, and I know that down the road, when I pass away, he wouldn't want any of it. So, I am an eBay reseller, and I often look for vintage items to sell. It is my way of staying connected to the past, without the clutter.
