  I got hot takes today. If you list a sports card on @ebay and you put down a different sport than what the card is of then you should be suspended from the platform. Like, if you list a baseball card as a football card, minimum 2 week ban.

  Get a radar key from eBay for £3 or so. Never an issue again.

  @3IDInfantryvet @eBay @CardPurchaser See I’ve got issues with this, near mint means it would grade above a 7… that card would. eBay needs to fix this on returns. A 10 isn’t guaranteed, that’s why you take this risk when purchasing.

  @xmlfancier @HeritageMatterz Not sure but you could try Hobgoblin Music UK or eBay. If eBay though, you’d probably need to know how to fix or maintain them

  After 42 Years, Texas Man Discovers His Stolen Car for Sale on eBay Robert Russell, 66, a retired sales manager from Southlake, Texas, never stopped searching for his 1967 Austin-Healey after it disappeared from outside his Philadelphia home in 1970. The car was stolen the morning after he took his future wife on their second date, giving it deep sentimental value that went far beyond its price. “I never gave up looking for it,” Russell said. “The fact that the car still exists is improbable. It could have been junked or wrecked years ago.” Russell originally paid a friend $3,000 for the sports car and spent years casually searching for it online, though he admitted he had little hope of ever finding it again. That changed in 2012 when he spotted a familiar-looking Austin-Healey listed for sale on eBay by a Beverly Hills dealership. Suspicious but hopeful, Russell contacted the seller and confirmed that the vehicle identification number matched his original car. He still had the original title and key, though he no longer possessed a copy of the police report from the theft. With the help of Philadelphia police, Russell discovered the original stolen-car report had never appeared in the FBI’s national crime database due to a clerical error in the VIN. Once the mistake was corrected, the case was reopened, allowing Los Angeles County authorities to impound the vehicle. Russell and his wife, Cynthia, flew to California to reclaim the car. Today, the Austin-Healey is valued at approximately $23,000. “It still runs, but the brakes aren’t great,” Russell said. “We’re going to put it back exactly the way it was.” After 42 years, the long-lost car and the memories attached to it are finally home.

  @boo_olivia_boo there was that other contingent of fans who established a discord server to try and geoguess where the journalist lived based on the ebay auction photos so they could go and rescue the life-sized vox cutout but it all fell apart bc they couldnt figure out who'd get to keep it

  @3IDInfantryvet @eBay @CardPurchaser And this wouldn’t be a problem if people weren’t so hyper focused on a grade. I wouldn’t blame anybody for trying to flip raw to grade, but expecting every raw card on eBay to somehow gem is completely irrational.

  Is eBay down for everyone or just me? I have an auction with 14 watchers ending in 40 minutes 😭

  @SwamileeSports @CardPurchaser I still don't get the HUGE price hike, and some of it is when i put my head down after he answered, his response was "well on ebay they're going.....". I cant finish the sentence because i didn't care and was out the door.

  @LiarAllDay @mario4thenorth I tend to agree that it is as important as lowered gas tax. The problem is the citizens pay rates 3x more than ebay sellers, amazon sellers or 3rs parties. 3x or more. Citizens are basically paying twice and subsidizing amazon. I think all citizens should have access. Bulk deals aren’t fair if we also pay in taxes for service.

  Regular Chinese student bought 7 Mac Minis on eBay for $1,600 and stacked them in a tower on his desk. Neighbors thought he was building a mining server. He just didn't want to pay $200 a month and use 20% of the capabilities. While others write prompts - he built a system. > Skills - Claude knows your rules from the first second and never forgets. > Hooks - tests run themselves, dangerous commands get blocked before execution, Telegram notifies when a task is done. > Memory - Claude doesn't start from zero every session. > Worktrees - seven machines take seven tasks and work in parallel. A marketer took content quality from 20% to 80% in one night. A consultant cut a client audit from 6 hours to 20 minutes. The tower on the desk does the same - but seven times faster because seven machines don't wait for each other. Setup: 40 minutes once. Result: 3-5 hours back every day. If your time is worth $50 an hour - you're currently giving away $3,000-5,000 a month just because you haven't set up the system.

  @JoshGmuwarrior @eBay @CardPurchaser Tracking is buggy right now, and even eBay has a warning on their site. They are well aware of the issue but there are a large number of untrustworthy customers taking advantage of sellers. Just file a PIP claim and get your money back. eBay sides with buyers even if they scam.

  I noticed he had the card up on auction on eBay and at the time it had two bids and was at ~$500. No BIN option available. I periodically check throughout the day to see if the listing would ever come down and if he would send me his PP info. No response all day so I send another

  @c_vinchenzo I missed the first two issues initially, got #2 on ebay for $10, but he’s just making it too difficult to get the back issues. If I want 1 and 3, I have to get the 1-4 + sketchbook pack and I just don’t want all that stuff.

  @nationalpost Every now and then, this device or something similar used by the FBI is for sale on ebay for $50,000 and within an hour ebay takes it down. Sure, sms blaster but these guys are intercepting all your traffic if theyre spoofing your cell phone tower.

  @Tuftenstein It’s a @Eurekavideo release. I think they are/were down to the last few copies, but I got this from eBay at a reasonable price. 👍

  @YoitisLeo My general rule with fanatics auctions is to try and get my max bid down as soon as possible. I want to discourage people from getting involved. Different approach on eBay, I try to snipe there.

  @iFixit Favourite repair win was my first bean to cup coffee machine on eBay, spares and repair for £50, nearly new and just a broken switch. Next up on the fix list is my retro Acorn Archimedes.

  Most eCommerce brands don’t fail because of bad products. They fail because: • Poor listings • Weak creatives • No data-driven strategy Fix these → revenue follows. #Ecommerce #Walmart #Ebay

  Damnit, I need a new PC to keep doing my eBay. Computer is so slow since Windows 10 ended. I’m not a laptop guy and looking for great basic (inexpensive) @HP desktop PC. Ideas? What do you use?

  @_BarbatosLupus_ @Wario64 Not a chance, especially refurbished. Already updated. If u want low firmware, search on Ebay older models. 2116 models have fixed liquid metal issue like Pros so for longevity I would buy new models

  @spinelessaisha that is bad. may be a motherboard issue, that's the worst case scenario. otherwise it could be RAM issue. if it's a laptop you can probably buy another motherboard off ebay and do a replacement.

  @KWilhelm85 @johniibo No, you're statng eBay anecdotes. A fact would be that the Switch 2 clearing 20 mil in a year makes it the most successful console launch ever, something you seem eager to sidestep. If you don't like it, that's your problem.

  @eBay has some of the absolute worst customer service an some of the most terrible policies. I have no idea how they’re even still around. I guess no competition but holy someone should start a new bidding site.

  @ValueAddedRS If CMA forces eBay to keep Depop separate, eBay ends up running two marketplaces with one team. That slows both down.
