➡️ LAKE SATOSHI 7/31-8/2 MI ⚡🏝️ (@NEEDcreations) reportedMy full collection of 1st Edition Base Set Pokemon Cards is going on sale on @eBay in under 24 hours. The auction will last 10 days. I wanted to pass these cards down to a family member, but due to personal reasons, I have decided to sell them. Each of the 102 cards I bought for $5-$2000+ has done a 5-7x since since when I bought them in 2020-2021. Considering that Bitcoin is now back at its 2021 price, I make out pretty well by selling these cards now and buying more bitcoin. In terms of passing something down, the fruits of these extra sats will yield a lot more than these cards can, so I feel that at this point, it's justified.

Rony Tomano (@rony_tomano) reported@IOInteractive You guys have my Hitman game glitched for months on end and I can’t log in still. About to sell My copy on eBay for 3 dollars. I emailed you guys and no one can fix it. Don’t feel like starting over with a new psn account. This is crazy

Scott Sleepy (@scott_sleepy) reportedI’m putting these thoughts down in the middle of the potential eBay bid because I do think Chewy has a role to play. Maybe it’s soon, maybe it’s a year from now, but I do think chewy is integral in helping blow up the basket. The Teddy books emphasized it way too hard.

tori🪽 (@mbhomesickk) reportedwhere to buy iphone 5s that are cheap and actually work. bc when i go on ebay all of them are broken and need to be repaired or something

Metatron 🩵 | Fujimine's Husband 🦋🔪🩸 | #TENOÍ (@SamuraHypeGuy) reported@GalvStudios22 I have a special relationship with this Ironhide because after breaking him way back when, I devoted so many years to getting him back which caused me to open my Ebay account. I eventually managed to track down a new one in 2020 and I still have him now

Jabarumba (@Jabarumba) reported.@The_DTCC DOW down VIX up, that's the way we like to f.. follow market trends. Looks like war is back on the menu. I don't mean the war over there, I mean the war between RCEO and EBay. $GME is itching to buy something and @ryancohen is 2-2 in turnarounds. How will #DTCC manage?

Squreek (@RockingHammster) reported@baalzamon35 Nah, ebay is terrible because mosty scalpers sell stuff there. I just pre-ordered her on proxy website (I want her bonus faceplate).
-
LDNxGamingxDad (@AdhdDaddyLondon) reported@meacouk & @meacouk_Cs does need to do something about scalpers as they're posting on x about buying air con units and reselling on eBay for £400+ profit. We need one of the units for my wife's heart issue as the heat makes it worse. But can't get one for scalpers!
-
Skeebas (@Skeebas1) reported@JonBbC_TechGeek It seems like a lot of these edge cases just come down to the car not retaining context, I’m sure the car saw the rock as it was coming in. Good luck on the repair though! Hit my side view mirror once trying to back into my garage and it was not easy finding spare parts to match on eBay 😭
-
Jlew (@greenstoslopes) reportedSomeone explain to me why a card I listed yesterday can’t be found under searches on eBay. It’s a GOAT too. I thought it odd to have zero views after 24 hours. I tried searching and nothing. Haven’t had this issue with any other card, what am I missing?
-
Polsia (@polsia) reportedSmall sellers spend hours manually tracking competitors. Hours they don't have. Built CompeteIQ to fix that — an autonomous agent that monitors pricing, stock, and reviews across Amazon, eBay, and Google Shopping 24/7, then delivers pricing moves in real time.
-
Contradictory Crow (@thedave9081) reported@maietta Call progressive and explain the issue to sales and that you would like to switch today. These companies are too large and there's to many people to fix glitches like this. They just won't because they get paid anyway. I had the reverse happen with eBay. 18 months to get my money

Now I feel like you could make a good one with that base but with the techniques I knew at the time IT LOOKED TERRIBLE like foam seams everywhere, not primed foam so like-

Justice Never Sleeps (@RandPaul4Prez24) reported@magsonthemoon @GoatBeardzDD Governance & Executive Incentives: was one of the reasons eBay turned down original offer. EBay questioned the extent to which GameStop's leadership and corporate incentives played a role in pushing the unsolicited offer. So Ryan wiped it out so no distractions
-
Paul Knowsit (@weknowsit) reported@anaharaway @Kaaroth @ryancohen They are paid in eBay stock. They sell to make money. eBay is an incredible stock to own and eBay is ran great. GameStop on the other hand is a terrible company and the stock is even worse. You are a moron. This retard will never own eBay.

☣VotP☣ 🇺🇳 🔞 (@VotP10) reported@terrenceviz @OliverJia1014 Limited item stock, now more desirable, of an easily-damaged product that is no longer produced..? Supply goes down, demand goes up, price increases (often to hilarious degrees -- take a look at PSX and earlier prices on ebay), remaining product slows movement, income dries up.

AnnetteG (@Annette_HW101) reported@SEU727 @end3of6days9 The carrier was great. He was crate trained anyway so he would hop in no problem. I think I bought if off EBay. I stuck to paved trails as much as possible. I’d let him pace me for a bit, but then he’d go in for most of the ride. People would laugh because he’d be asleep

Prunaru 🇷🇴 (@MirceaPrunaru) reported@FullyOrange @mooreslawisdead Just wait for the crypto poors to dump the hardware on ebay because they lost all they have when the bitshit went down xD
-
Shinigamiinochi 🍎🦌🏳️🌈 (@Shinigamiinochi) reported@Velvettedarling @Assybi_ Tia had to take their shop down bc Spindlehorse came out with a new rule that anyone who has worked on hazbin cannot sell unofficial merch of the show. So sadly, anyone who didnt buy those standees are out of luck unless someone sells them on ebay or something

WillFF (@WillFF_) reported@eddiemcpigskin @WaxMetrix @OffDaHook35 I have seen nothing but issues with ebay auth.

Benjamin Lewis (@tc1415) reportedWhen I was an undergrad in Castle (Durham) we all just unscrewed the limiters on the sash windows, and put them back just before anyone came to look. Fr. Walker alas has a more vexing issue to solve but I bet the key to unlock that is generic and can be found on eBay or similar.

Dzhani01 (@CY580091499) reportedHE IGNORED THE #1 PIECE OF HOMELAB ADVICE — "BUY A CHEAP USED SERVER OFF EBAY" — AND BUILT A RACK THE SIZE OF A TOASTER INSTEAD Everyone tells beginners the same thing: grab an old Dell PowerEdge for $80, it's enterprise-grade, it's a bargain. What they don't tell you: it screams like a jet engine, pulls 100W+ sitting idle, and heats the room it lives in. That "cheap" server costs you $150+ a year in electricity alone — every year, forever. So he went the opposite way. One 10-inch mini rack on a desk. Mini PCs that sip ~10W each instead of rack servers. A network switch. A small touchscreen on top running his dashboard — the whole lab visible at a glance. Quiet enough to sit next to. Small enough to carry under one arm. Uses less power than a light bulb. Pause at 1:35 — the eBay listings of used PowerEdge servers he almost bought. Then look at what's actually sitting on his desk at the end. That contrast is the whole video. Most homelab guys measure their setup in rack units and decibels. He measured his in "would I actually want this thing in my room." Skip the eBay trap. Buy small. Stack quiet. Full build in the video.

Ed Goddard (@Beeza3000) reported@ebay why do you suck so bad now there saying its better to close down account after 10 plus years only one little problem that was resolved and just open a new one to get funds faster make it make sense

Alan Poole (@reallyalan1970) reported@eBay_UK is it me or is there an issue with the eBay app on iPhones, I have a listing and the app doesn’t work so can’t see how it’s doing.

Nic Picot Magic (@nicpicot) reported@eBay_UK #ebay How pathetic are the ebay systems? A simple cancellation and they want me to pay for a label not utilised!! Their AI bot is completely stupid as it cannot understand the most simple issue! Their human help is not much better. What can one post in an envelope I ask?

Kris Watson (@StarQuestEntert) reported@QE4Everyone Johnnysan knows you can wire an old sound recorder to pick up sound clear down the street. It's all in how you wore the projects. Johnmysan lives in area 51 and used me to sell stuff on eBay and escape taxes B's or fears of eBay he had himself. I don't have to kill johnnysan but

Traeyz ♠️ (@TraeyzX) reportedTuomas Holmberg breaks down how @Collector_Crypt is changing the game by compressing settlement times and cutting out the middleman. "If you want to rotate from modern to vintage cards without getting wrecked, you're paying 13% in fees out the gate. Then the auction takes 7 days, and eBay holds your money for weeks. How are you supposed to buy the next thing?" "But with Collector Crypt and what we're building, you can go in and sell a card for $10,000. Once that settles, you have that money within a few seconds, and then you could go and buy something else." "If you're in our Discord, we have a trustless swap, it's free. You find a buyer, we don't take anything on that. That's all up to you in the negotiation. You don't have a middleman there taking 2% of every trade." "We want people to go into our Discord, find deals, and negotiate without having to pay. If you list it on our marketplace, we only take 2%. Even if you do that, it's very cheap."

Soda (@__grapesoda) reportedI sold it on ebay and the buyer scared me because he said it was broken but they eventually figured out it was user error and it works

TheAlternativeView (@TheAlte22837262) reported@eBay your search features are terrible. If I go anywhere else on the WWW I don't have this problem. It is just desperate..
