  Ebay seller that combine S1/S2/Update (inserts) (parallels) in drop down menus are so easy to avoid when searching players... Often times the card(s) (you) are after have been sold but the search still picks up the listing... I get why sellers do it, but as a buyer, it's easy to move on to an individual listing...

  Ordered 4 cups on EBay. Enough packaging to wrap the Crown Jewels. Took 30 minutes to get the box open. On of the cups was broken.

  @sneedweb I don’t understand why you’re still posting about eBay. The stock is down 20% since the offer. He doesn’t have anywhere near the cash or equity to finance this deal. The most cash he could get from the combined cashflow is like $7-8b, max. You’re watching this like it’s a damn tennis match. If eBay agreed today, he couldn’t do it, unless they gave him half the company. It’s a bluff, buddy. Stop talking about it. It’s not happening.

  @RockSol1d_ Sorry to hear that. I had this exact problem recently. If you’re lucky you can buy/swap an individual solenoid. If not you might need to buy the whole module. Check out aftermarket parts on eBay. They’re very reasonable, and either swap it yourself or get the mechanic to do the install.

  6/ Scenario C: The Fixed-Supply Squeeze GameStop announces the eBay acquisition and simultaneously weaponizes its own derivative plumbing by initiating a corporate action on the warrants. The board either buys them back or legally lowers the strike price (e.g., down to $15).

  I'm an electrical contractor. So maybe I can speak here a little. Very often pricing is a mafia structure between very few vendors. Here in Florida, lighting is ridiculous. For the same build-out, I will get a $23k lighting quote as "alternatives to spec" that are legit the same products, just a different brand, and the spec'ed lights will get quoted at $64k. Now for your breaker. I personally will not buy a breaker from Amazon or eBay. This is personal. There's likely no issue, but I will pay 3x more through my vendors due to relationships with them, trust with them, certain guarantees through them. Yes, this will get passed onto the customer, but generally 3 phase bigger breakers like this control things that cost money each time they're shut down or require scheduling to shut down. Imagine if I send an employee into a... Grocery store..or something overnight since they can't shut down during the day. My Amazon/eBay breaker fails during this overnight shut down. Now I'm just the cheap *** contractor trusting Amazon and eBay to save a couple hundred $, that now costed me thousands and will require another shut down, logistics etc etc. It sucks, sorry you had to deal with this. My hyperbolic story isn't always true, but I've ran into your breaker price range a few times and usually.. it's the electrical wholesale mafia setting the price because they know we'll pay for it.

  @EdwardCollects the problem is the TGCplayer and eBay markets, you end us with sellers who do no research on what they have and over price things signaling others to do so as well. no piece of cardboard that took $1.25 to print should ever cost more than $20 on the secondary market.

  Problem with alot of businesses these days is they hold your money to longest possible extent before you receive a payout. Yet everyone you pay wants paid on time . It’s a super annoying issue. Can’t tell me a multimiilion dollar apartment complex doesn’t have the funds to pay you your deposit on time in accordance with the law. Don’t get me started on insurance companies and ebay… like pulling teeth man.

  How did I build a mini PC for $500? People don’t buy products; they buy brands. More often than not, you can buy the exact same product for less, just under a different name. Manufacturers tout impressive figures like ‘86 TOPS’, but in practice what matters is → Memory capacity → SSD → Bandwidth → Cooling I found a Beelink SER 8 with a Ryzen 7 8845 HS, 32 GB RAM and a 1 TB SSD on eBay for $480 Additional costs → External case: $25 Memory speed and RAM capacity are far more important. You don’t need 128 GB of RAM unless you’re running 70V models Here’s how things turned out after a week of using the mini PC LIama 3 works without any issues Qwen 3 responds instantly Electricity savings of around $20 a month AI subscriptions are free By buying a mini PC for yourself, you’re not just saving on electricity. You’re also saving on space. It will also be beneficial for companies not to have to maintain mini PCs, as they require no maintenance and incur no additional costs.

  $EBAY DID NOT ANNOUNCE THE FINAL VOTE COUNT. They are still counting and results will be released in an 8K within 4 business days. $GME and its warrants are up sharply post-meeting. At the same time, a Federal Judge has reopened the harassment campaign lawsuit against eBay’s board and management. It looks like eBay’s in trouble…..

  @TCGPokePlug @eBay Whatnot is the closest site to take down eBay, but sadly it's filled with scammers, and that turns off buyers. Until we get a legitimate alternative eBay and their fees, and their shipping scams, and their counterfeit items will unfortunately have to suffice.

  Back when I was obsessed with Dutch I switched my entire phone language to Dutch and then when I got sick of it I switched back to English but every so often it just creeps back in without my consent. Some apps (notably eBay) are fully in Dutch and I can’t fix it.

  @glacierptrading @Vfwbartender11 Why do you pick 30? Why not 60? 80? Would you be happy at $30? Prob not GME goes up and down. We all wanted a short squeeze. Ryan Cohen wants to buy eBay. These two things can work together, but it takes longer to capture the squeeze & get eBay. You either like the plan or sell.

  @poke_maam i'm with you in the current. right now if you sell ebay auction/consigning or as a vendor you get to sell at a premium but someone is taking a cut I think over time that cut being taken trends down as long as onchain marketplaces keep getting more desirable inventory and more liquidity this is not a quick thing but a long term trend

  $GME $EBAY GameStop can bypass or dismantle eBay's poison pill by employing specific, aggressive corporate governance strategies. A poison pill (shareholder rights plan) does not completely stop a takeover; it simply forces the bidder to negotiate with the board or take the battle directly to the shareholders. To push the acquisition through, GameStop and CEO Ryan Cohen can use three primary legal and financial avenues. 1. Launch a Proxy Contest to Replace the Board •The Strategy: GameStop can nominate its own slate of directors for eBay's next annual meeting. •The Mechanism: If eBay shareholders elect GameStop's nominees, the new board can vote to redeem (cancel) the poison pill. •The Outcome: Once the new board removes the pill, GameStop can safely execute its $125-per-share tender offer without triggering severe dilution. 2. File a Lawsuit Challenging the Pill •The Strategy: GameStop can sue the eBay board in court (typically Delaware Chancery Court). •The Argument: GameStop would argue that the board is breaching its fiduciary duties by using the pill to block a premium offer solely to entrench themselves. •The Outcome: If the court finds the eBay board's defense disproportionate, a judge can order the board to pull down the pill, forcing them to let shareholders vote on the deal. 3. Condition the Tender Offer on Board Approval •The Strategy: GameStop can launch a public tender offer directly to eBay shareholders but add a "minimum tender condition." •The Mechanism: GameStop states it will only buy the shares if a supermajority (e.g., 70% or 80%) of eBay shareholders agree to sell, and the eBay board removes the pill. •The Pressure: If the vast majority of eBay investors tender their shares, the extreme pressure usually forces the board to dismantle the pill and negotiate, fearing massive shareholder lawsuits if they refuse. The Underlying Fuel: The July 7 Vote To make any of these strategies credible, GameStop must pass its own July 7, 2026 proposals. Increasing its authorized shares to 2.5 billion gives GameStop the financial ammunition to buy a massive stake or offer an overwhelmingly attractive stock-and-cash deal that eBay shareholders cannot ignore.

  There is literally one eBay listing for the issue but I’m not even sure if it’s a real listing or if it’s lying to me. Either way it’s sealed and I’m not buying it so..I emailed a few websites so we’ll see what happens.

  @thwacknicklaus This club thwarted my free golf in college. Had a course where you paid $1 and wrote your name down if you’re a member. I’d pay the buck and write down my friend’s name who had a membership. Bought this driver off eBay and roped one down the first fairway - too much attention.

  Nate (@Natan_benish) reported 52 minutes ago

  prediction: onchain platforms can and will become the main pricing venue for at least some major card categories (instead of eBay/alt/fanfics sales) just to point out some structural issues with offchain venues: - there are multiple different fee structures (PSA charges 7.5-13% based on sale value, eBay 13-15%, Alt 4-14%) - sale taxes are not accounted explicitly, you buy from a PSA vault and keeping it there? 0% DE state tax, you ship it home pay 5-12% in state taxes, you ship oversees even more complicated. same goes with shipping cost which again takes place on check out. this is before I go into credit card + fx fees with onchain platforms it's simple. vaulted by default, settled mostly with USDC, shipping comes after, and platform fees are low and fixed. you can't possibly make the case against onchain taking over.

  🚨 Breaking News : eBay Proposal 4 May Have Passed eBay's annual shareholder meeting is over, and reports are circulating that Proposal 4 received enough votes to pass. If confirmed, shareholders would only need to own 10% of eBay to call a special shareholder meeting, down from the current 20% requirement. Why does that matter? GameStop reportedly owns nearly 10% of eBay. That could give Ryan Cohen and GameStop a way to bring their acquisition ideas directly to eBay shareholders through a special meeting. ⏰ Official voting results have not been released yet. eBay has said the results could be announced as soon as tomorrow. $GME $EBAY

  @ebay I have a genuine question. How come when I look for an item sold it is not in chronological order? Like the most recent order should be at the top of the page I'm looking now and the most recent order is 15 to 20 items down but you'll have an item that sold in May above it
