    Tommy “The Creator Unknown” Mack (@TMMackz) reported

    In the last week, I’ve had four movies removed by eBay due to alleged policy violations. While I agree with most of eBay’s listing policies, they are being applied in an inconsistent and puritanical manner. For every listing removed, there are “worse” examples being sold. Has anyone at @eBay tried to stomach The Passion of the Christ? 🤢 Is there a movie that promotes violence more than ***** Harry? Is there a more disturbing documentary than life itself? Since the issue is causing me grief and lost income, I’ve decided to turn it into a game. eBay removed A Serbian Film, The Original Faces of Death, The Cohasset ***** Film, and Men Behind the Sun. eBay has allowed Salo: 120 Days of *****, Orozco, Cannibal Ferox, and Cannibal Holocaust. Which of these upcoming listings will get chopped?

    @IndependnTexan That’s the issue. Right now, if I don’t wanna pay full price for god of war ragnarok, I can go to target, Best Buy, GameStop, local game stores, eBay, etc. and have a chance to find it at a more affordable price. Digital completely removes that option as codes don’t go on sale.

    @Ob1JohnKenob1 @eBay Also I bought a low dollar hank card. Shows it made it my town. I have never received. So of course I filed a no show claim. Lack of good postal employees is the biggest problem we have as sellers and occasionally buyers.

    @dlamini_sa2411 @Gigiof5momof2 @Oluchisxn I'm starting to think this is a good wife test. If your girl wants a $20,000 ring and a $60,000 wedding, she's not wife material. I got my rings off Amazon. About $100 each for two. I've got some fancy costume jewelry off Ebay that other women have swooned over. I tell them every time that I chose the $20 ring off ebay and a new track saw and remind young women about priorities. Money is finite and none of us are super rich. Put that money in a 401K or use it as a down payment on a car/house.

    CHINESE DEV MADE $487,000 RUNNING LLAMA 405B ON A $580 EPYC CHIP AMD ONLY SHIPPED TO AZURE AMD EPYC 7V13, 64 cores, 128 threads. 512GB of pulled DDR4 ECC at $91 a stick. Supermicro server board for $340. All of it stuffed inside a gaming case on his desk. Most builders think 405B needs an H100 rack. He ran the whole model on a socket that used to run Bing. Pause at 1:58 — the EPYC chip sitting bare with a "made in Malaysia" stamp on the heatspreader. Azure decommissioned this chip. A guy on eBay put it under a desk. Full build in the video below.

    CHINESE DEV PULLED $4,720,000 ON A MINI PC SMALLER THAN A NOVEL WHILE NVIDIA'S $8,499 RTX 5000 ADA SAT IN THE SHOP WINDOW Intel LGA1700 board. 32GB DDR5 SO-DIMM. Two Samsung PM9A1 gen 4 SSDs pulled from Dell servers for $41 each. NVIDIA Quadro T1000, 4GB VRAM, $180 on eBay. Most builders think you need a full tower for inference. She fit the whole rig into a black case the size of a hardback book. Pause at 0:02 — the Quadro T1000 laid out next to a keyboard bigger than the entire PC. The workstation moat died when used server SSDs hit $41. Full build in the video below.

    PCIFIC is also expanding beyond the marketplace itself with PCIFIC Safeguard, our browser extension. We are optimising for eBay first. The idea is simple: PCIFIC should help buyers and sellers wherever they already are. For buyers, the extension appears directly inside the eBay listing page. You do not need to open a clunky popup, copy a URL, or paste details into another tool. PCIFIC renders inside the eBay UI, near the buying decision. When you click Review with PCIFIC, the extension reviews the visible listing details, seller signals, reviews, condition claims, item description, returns information, and listing context. It then gives you a plain-English report. It can highlight things like: • Vague condition wording • Missing proof • Unclear accessories • Suspicious listing history patterns • Seller signal concerns • Product details that may confuse buyers • Questions worth asking before paying PCIFIC Safeguard is a decision-support tool. It surfaces patterns, explains risk signals, and helps buyers ask better questions before spending money. One example is listing history. Sometimes a listing can show a large number of sales, which creates trust. But if the listing was previously used for a cheaper item and later changed into an expensive device, that sold count may not mean what the buyer thinks it means. PCIFIC Safeguard looks for patterns like that and explains them clearly. The extension also gives buyers a score, a simple status such as Looks safe or Check first, and a copyable message they can send to the seller. For sellers, the extension works inside the eBay listing flow. When you are creating a listing, PCIFIC can show fee guidance directly in the UI, so you understand what eBay may take before you publish. It also adds a Review with PCIFIC button for sellers. This reviews your draft listing from a buyer’s point of view. It checks whether your title, description, condition notes, price, and trust signals make sense. For example, if your title says the item is in good condition but your description suggests heavy wear, PCIFIC can flag that. If buyers may want battery health, warranty information, proof of reset, accessory details, or clearer photos, PCIFIC can point that out before the listing goes live. The extension also saves review states between sessions. So if you reviewed a listing two days ago and come back to it later, PCIFIC remembers that. You do not need to regenerate the same review again. This matters because marketplace buying is not always instant. People compare listings, leave tabs open, come back later, message sellers, and sleep on decisions. PCIFIC Safeguard is built around how people actually shop. The bigger vision is not only eBay and not only tech. Tech is the first category because it has obvious trust problems: IMEI checks, serial numbers, battery health, device locks, specs, repairs, warranties, and hidden condition issues. But the same idea can apply to watches, trading cards, collectables, fashion, cars, and other categories where buyers need help understanding risk and trust. PCIFIC started as a UK tech marketplace. But the bigger mission is becoming clearer: PCIFIC helps people make safer, clearer marketplace decisions before money changes hands. And with tools like findr, buildr, PCIFIC Checkup, and PCIFIC Safeguard, we are not just trying to make another marketplace. We are building the tools that marketplaces should have had already. Our philosophy is simple: wherever friction exists, we look for a way to reduce it. If AI is the right tool, we use AI. If a simple button, QR code, manual review, form, verification flow, or buyer checklist solves the problem better, we use that instead. The point is not to make everything automated. The point is to make buying and selling feel easier, safer, and clearer for normal people.

    @DaveKluge Good job! My USB/Aux port on my 2012 Toyota RAV4 went out, and the local shop quoted me $200 to fix it. I found the part online, bought it on Ebay - new - for $15 with free shipping. It took 2 minutes to replace with a YouTube how-to video.

    Competitors reprice 24/7. Most sellers can't keep up. Built CompeteIQ to fix that — an AI agent that monitors prices across Amazon, Walmart, eBay in real time and automatically adjusts your listings to stay competitive. Intelligent repricing, not just mechanical matches.

    @C37484Olibher That’s just eBay. Something that helps is never answering questions or messages, never selling to question-askers, and never accepting offers via messages. My blocked buyers list is 500+. “Does this work with xxx” or “why are you selling” or “$xx right now” are problem buyers.

    @FatherSavagePHD I'm selling off my old comics too, though that's a harder sell since I have over 2000 books to get rid of when Ebay is my only option. My daughter doesn't care about this stuff, and I'm not going to force it on her, so more "stuff" for someone else to deal with when I die. Laaaaaame. Yeah, they were good reads for the time, but I almost never re-read an issue these days. I barely did then, and a good majority of these books are from the 90s. Like, I already read it once. I can't pretend I don't know how the story is going to end.

    @XCSme @mandla_putu @Pirat_Nation >Geekbench 6: i9-14900K (~3,000–3,100 single / ~19,500–20,500 multi) edges the Ultra 7 270K Plus in single-core while trading blows in multi; the older Ryzen 9 5900X lags notably behind both (~2,500 single / ~13,000–14,000 multi). A typical refurbished dual Xeon Gold (e.g., 2x 6148, 40 cores total) scores lower single-core (~2,000–2,300) but can reach 25,000–35,000+ multi depending on clocks and config. PassMark CPU Mark: i9-14900K leads with ~58,000–59,000, ahead of the Ultra 7 270K Plus (~50,000–55,000 range) and well above the Ryzen 9 5900X (~40,000–42,000). Dual Xeon setups often exceed 70,000–100,000+, excelling in heavily parallel server workloads. Cinebench R23: i9-14900K delivers ~2,100–2,200 single / ~38,000–41,000 multi, outperforming the Ultra 7 270K Plus and significantly beating the Ryzen 9 5900X (~1,600 single / ~22,000–25,000 multi). Dual Xeon configurations shine here with 50,000–80,000+ multi-core potential, making them the strongest for extreme raw multi-threaded tasks despite weaker single-core performance. Popular refurbished dual Xeon workstation models (LGA 3647/Cascade Lake or similar) include Dell Precision T7910/T7920/T7820, Lenovo ThinkStation P910/P920, and HP Z8 G4 equivalents — these often come with dual Xeon Gold/Platinum CPUs, high DDR4 ECC capacity, and workstation-grade build quality. Typical costs for refurbished full systems: $600–$1,500+ (depending on CPU generation, RAM, GPU, and storage); barebones or lightly configured units can start under $500 on eBay/ServerMonkey/PCSP/Dell Outlet. Motherboard + dual CPU combo pricing (refurbished): LGA 3647 dual-socket boards (Supermicro X11, ASUS, Gigabyte C621) run $150–$350; a solid dual Xeon Gold pair (e.g., 2x 20-core models) adds $100–$400, for a total combo often under $600–$800 — excellent value for massive multi-core performance.<

    @PeterB585337060 @Rainmaker1973 Yeah - but we got people interested in "Retro Tech" nowadays. Frankly a good % of flat screens can be repaired if no visible damage (cat knocked it over, broken screen) pretty cheaply and FAR less dangerously...still ONLY a pro should. But everyone just buys new. CRT's are more likely to knock you across the room and/or burn off a tiny hunk of flesh than kill you. But some people have weak hearts and it's at the edge of the voltage/types that can cause a heart attack. I don't want authorities going around trying to destroy them if some person does a stupid... CRT's are getting a market back but most/all the places to make new ones have been shut down. Usually, they CAN be repaired a few times to working before dying. Not going to list the signs/solutions here I'd type a book. Again better to try to recycle them to a pro or if into Retro stuff oneself pay to have a legit tech look at it. The last models were giant ones, 32 inch and higher, total dream for kids who had N64s and Dreamcasts to play with. Worth a few $ for a diagnostic then repair if feasible. AND if they find a pile in an estate sale or something, check they are working, might make decent $ on Ebay and make some people happy. Myself I like playing ATARI on a GIANT Flatscreen TV. My Aunt had a projection screen and warned me and other relatives NOT to put the Atari into it - said it'd wreck it and we'd have to mow her lawn and do YEARS of chores to make up for it... And we respected her so we never tried it. Now a flatscreen BIGGER than her $8K setup (NOT adjusted for inflation) is not $400 in my rural big box stores during Black Friday/Christmas... And yes I play ANCIENT games on it! And newer ones. There's some suck like I did play with lightgun games but... But otherwise I do NOT idolize the past though I have fond memories of it. ----Again TL/DR... 1 - let a PRO with experience and the burns/scars to prove it risk his A$$ on it and be PAID for it. 2 - You can FIX most CRTs a few times 3 - I hope there's a retro market like how people purchase NEW LPs (plastic sound music discs) and get NEW music made in LP, Cassette, Mini-Disc format for the niche... Not a "Full return" but a solid mini niche.
