    In the next month I will be winding down my ebay account. There will be a huge postal increase coming, too many scammers, and slow delivery times. Ebay is becoming a waste of time!!!

    @Whatnot Never ever purchase anything from @Whatnot . Awful customer service, unhelpful and don’t care at all about their users. I cannot stress this enough, if you are in Canada, completely AVOID this site. Absolutely terrible, I will continue using eBay only.

    @FamousVariety What is the play was never eBay or the Amazon killer. Instead it was Teddy the eBay killer. Demonstrate what’s wrong with eBay. Then launch the competitor that fixes those problems. RC took on Amazon in pet foods and now. Now he takes on eBay and does the impossible again. The narrative writes itself.

    @eBay just wanna let you know how terrible your services are, I’m having to pay for a return when a customer damaged it clearly after receiving it so now I lose out on the sale and I get a product back in a different shape then when I sent it out? Make it make sense

    Sounds like that's another chapter in your life.. Move forward .. I won't do ebay. I don't want to put the time into it. I also don't want to feed or enable further collecting of stuff in hopes of making a few bucks here and there. I don't think it's worth the time and having to deal with stuff once again going to the dump further down the road..

    @MajorWFPod @JGeorgeTheMovie @sirpaul64 One of the biggest issues is Jazwares itself. They've never been number one with figure quality (I know that because the Mortal Kombat 9 figures I got all broke easily and the Deception cold snap Sub Zero I got from eBay which was MIB couldn't stand on it's own)

  • ghhughes
    Gerard Hughes ( @ghhughes.bsky.social ) (@ghhughes) reported

    This is a $475 Mark-10 clamp for force testing machines. One of the threaded brass bushings needed to open and close it is stripped. And one of the snap rings needs to be repositioned. The cost to fix it will be a minimum of $105. And that's just for the evaluation fee - even though it just needs a new bushing, and possibly a new threaded rod. All of the repair fees are based on evaluations and repairs for multi-thousand dollar Force testing machines, not for their fixtures. A machinist could recreate the brass bushing. But that would be custom work that could get expensive quickly, and cost more than the high fees at Mark-10. Sigh... You'd think a simple 5" clamp couldn't cost that much money, and that maybe you could get a cheaper one on ebay. And you can. But cheaper force testing clamps are also significantly cheaper quality, while still being very expensive for what they are. I guess they're just such a niche product that companies can charge that much.

    @MeganSuspended Friends of ours lived next door to a house that burned down...the guy sold batteries on ebay for electric scooters. This is such shocking and sad news. So very sorry to hear this terrible news. I hope they will all be ok in time.🙏💔

    @Pittsburgh1Pete 1. I’ve mostly moved to Buy it Now, and most always willing to negotiate. I will also proactively send offers on things I’m willing to move that have been sitting on eBay for a while. 2. If shipping is reasonable, I have no problem paying it. If it’s painfully obvious you’re putting extra margin in your shipping cost, I am probably going to avoid buying off of you, unless it’s a high dollar/limited card I can’t get anywhere else.

    $GME Ryan Cohen is 100% funding the eBay deal with our beloved GameStop. To ensure he gets his pay package he is basically saying he will buy back shares overt years - which to be fair is a good show of faith What this means to me is simple : GameStop is a horrible investment until the eBay deal is done- the way that I look at it is - dollar cost average at levels as we go down and then you have a nice bag of shares for when they finally acquire eBay Simple

    @WestCoast_Goodz Man, “summer slow down,” “q1 slow down,” “dying platform.” I’ve had to deal with people telling me their eBay sales are dying every season, every month, every year, since I started but my sales have kept going up. It’s definitely the platform, not their fault.

    @KreekCraft If this change happens, a lot of people will basically sell their stuff on ebay, and quit games that have trading system aka half of roblox. This is not beneficial to anyone, it hurts both the users and Roblox as a company. I hope they dont implement this and it was just an error

    Listed an item on eBay for $23 and didn't sell. Got ungated on Amazon, listed it for $29, sold within a day. Amazon has its problems but you can't move product like that anywhere else.

  • RetroChainer

    Why your AI eBay listings come out generic and the fix The mistake is structural. A fresh chat every time starts cold no memory of your inventory or standards. Generic in, generic out. The fix: a Claude Project. It stores instructions permanently, so you operate a trained specialist, not a blank chat. The key principle: authentication before pricing. The model confirms the item's era from the photos before it writes a word and never guesses. Why it matters: that step is the gap between a $25 listing and an $80 one. The edge was never the code. It's the instruction that runs first.

    People ask me all the time why I keep saying $OFFCHAIN belongs in the millions. I don't value projects based on today's candle. I value them based on what they're building, how fast they're executing, and the size of the market they're attacking. Let's start with the obvious. $OFFCHAIN isn't a one feature project. It's building an entire ecosystem around offline payments, privacy, trading, AI automation and crypto accessibility. The team already shipped: -offline transfers -offline stablecoin rails -AI agent -NFC payments -Amazon/eBay shopping with USDC -Chrome extension -privacy tools -perps and now distribution through the Solana dApp Store. Most projects would build a whole narrative around one of these features. These guys built all of them. Now look at the market opportunity. There are billions of people globally with poor internet connectivity. Governments shut down internet access. Mobile data fails. Infrastructure isn't equal everywhere. $OFFCHAIN is attacking a real world problem, not an imaginary crypto problem. Then look at the team. Every week there's another update, another product , another release , another integration. Then ask yourself, How many projects sitting at 5M, 10M, 20M+ valuations have less products than this? A lot. That's why I keep saying I think millions are coded. Not because of hype, not because I want a pump.Because when I compare valuation vs execution, the gap is still massive. The market eventually rewards teams that solve real problems. And I think many people are going to realize that far too late. CA: BPiECaSntw8LVGYimofpNcU5eKrjrSvKz5VY7mr9pump

    @MorgenHatton @ryancohen @gamestop the cash is the problem. the may 13d/a shows $GME at 7.78% economic exposure to ebay via put/call pairs. moody's estimated closing the $55.5b bid requires ~$31b in debt. market isn't pricing that cash as a floor. it's pricing it as leveraged bid fuel.

    @0xSammy there different sources(eBay is obviously one) , I’m currently talking to some people who do more exotic oracles also, I’ll post a whole like methodology/rundown in a few days on it so people know where it is. I think probably doing 2-3 sources and averaging the data is most fair. But honestly biggest issue is it doesn’t move much, it’s not volatile enough haha. So doing an index of top 500 cards (like a poke-SP500), but yeah I still got to take care of this oracle issue.
