    @CoCCollectibles Yeah. Still nice though. Don't feel bad. I owned THE Brady card for a minute in 2004. Got it for $400 from Ebay back when the photos were usually terrible. Seller said it was NM, but I couldn't tell from the pics. I trusted him. It wasn't NM, so I sold it at a loss.

    @RussellCartwr18 Thanks man. I'm having trouble finding the robe by itself on eBay, Mercari, and Facebook marketplace. Might try Craigslist too

    @SonicBlueRanger The prices for them on eBay aren’t terrible in all fairness, given that not all that many copies were published. It just depends if you’re willing to spend anywhere from £30 to nearly £50 a piece for them.

    Designed and sold my own bike parts on eBay First £1k online Absolutely zero clue what I was doing I just saw a space for a product, knew how to get stuff 3D printed, and built the product I wanted for myself - Ordered 3D printed parts for ~£7 - Final assembly + packaging ~£2 - Sold for £35 bosh Only shut it down bc a friend (competitor in the industry) asked me if I had insurance Spent a whole day phoning up insurance companies None of whom offered to cover me And bc the bike part was related to steering… I bottled it and shut down the biz (Didnt fancy my chances getting sued over an untested product if one of my buyers lost his teeth in a 1v1 with the floor) Boy oh boy that was a fun summer

    @FinanceLancelot Was on the phone with eBay today, the agent told me with humor he basically does not have to do anything anymore, its all handled with AI Agents that make all the decisions and process the issues, he's literally just there because we want to speak to real people still.

    The photograph that disappeared for 150 years Richard Carrington was an astronomer. In 1859, he looked through a telescope and saw something nobody had recorded before. A huge flash erupted from the Sun. Less than a day later, a powerful solar storm hit Earth. Telegraph systems failed. Auroras appeared far beyond their usual range. The event became known as the Carrington Event. But there was one strange problem. Nobody knew what Carrington looked like. No photograph of him could be found. For decades, historians searched museums and archives for a missing portrait. Nothing. Then, in 2025, an archivist at the Royal Astronomical Society checked something much less obvious. eBay. She found an old photograph being sold by a shop in Pittsburgh. The seller had simply listed it as: “Photo of Mr Carrington.” It was him. On the back, faint writing gave another clue: “R C Carrington, Esquire for C V Walker, Esquire.” The photograph had been missing for about 150 years. Now it has a home in the Royal Astronomical Society archives.

    Beware of this eBay seller. Purchased a J Baez lot when he was hot and I had to cancel and refund him because it sold on Mercari probably 15 minutes prior. He purchased it literally as I was taking down the eBay listing. I messaged him and apologized and refunded him immediately. Well… he left negative feedback and said he never got the cards.

    @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

  • tresamigos858
    Jared Bray (@tresamigos858) reported

    @KyngDid Even that breaks down to math too. If a table cost is $150 that’s 10% of $1500 in sales. Even selling at 100% of comps comes with a cost (and depending on how much you sell could be far more or far less than eBay)

    As most of us know, there have been plenty of people opening and selling 30th anniversary product early across Whatnot and other platforms. Over the past week TPCi has decided to put their foot down, specifically with sellers on Ebay. Several sellers have been contacted by Ebay and informed that their early listings for raw Pokemon cards from the 30th anniversary set have been taken down. Ebay claims the listings were in violation of their stolen product policy. I wonder if TPCi will go after Whatnot themselves and other platforms to root out the source of the problem....

    @TheShazamPow i actually looked this up the other day. its technically a grey area but it is blacklisted from ebay. so yes its a problem if you sell it but apparently owning it is fine?

    They seem to think they are THE Majima yume or want to come across as such, had an issue with me and my merch collecting, thinking I spend a fortune... if they only look at ebay prices, I can see how they maybe think that. lol But in the end...

    @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.

    @DanzelAlex Just unscrew the panels, and take them down normally! 🤦 Then you can put them up in your next place or sell them on ebay to recoup your losses! 🤦

    @card_history @UpperDeckSports In 1999 Upper Deck told me about a few of the first Patch cards ever made. The best and worst as they put it. The WORST was a yet unreleased employee card with a distinct error i how the patch was inserted. A few months later the first Jordan employee card was released. After years of looking I never found the Jordan card that was described. The 'best' patch they described is attached. I found it after years of searching the newsgroups, sportsnet and ebay.

    @boomboomfaia Yeah we had to turn off shipping TO the EU because of LUCID and the new PPWR rulings (US based issue for Etsy/Ebay) But I do believe acggoods does handle most of that since they are the ones producing and shipping the items. Only thing is the tariffs but that is customer based

    @Oscvr9_ Hello! Best way to price sealed is to refer to eBay last solds for sealed - do not count any unsealed. Often I find issue with sold items under “best offer” and the listed price being the sold price. For this reason I always use 130point to get most accurate prices w/ offers.
