  The problem with art comms is that the market's essentially the wild west: Google Maps lets me see reviews for establishments; Amazon and eBay also for products. But no centralized marketplace for artists. It's all word of mouth or experimentation.

  A 24-year-old former Deliveroo courier in Belgrade paid $180 in eBay parts last month and built the whole rig inside a Nike shoebox on his kitchen table. ASRock B450. Ryzen 5. 32GB DDR4. One used RTX 3060. Nothing new except the thermal paste. He runs three client accounts now. 18 automations. Menu translation for two Balkan cafés opening in Vienna. Reply-drafting for a small immigration law firm. Voice-note transcription for a real-estate agent working the Serbian diaspora market. The stack used to cost $412/month across ChatGPT Plus, Claude Pro, and a translator's retainer. The shoebox costs $8.50/month in electricity. He didn't hire anyone. He didn't buy a domain. He just plugged the box into a static IP and let the agents pick up the invoices. The delivery app that used to schedule him at 4 AM keeps sending him "boost bonus" push notifications. He forwards them to an inbox rule that drafts polite Serbian thank-you notes before the cafés down the street open.

  @PlayerEssence @mrpyo1 No seriously, the 3DS came out in 2011 and Nintendo shut down the store ending all digital sales and support in 2023. 12 years and you can't even download any games. I have to go to Amazon Marketplace or Ebay to get games.

  Tomorrow wouldn’t surprise me if $GME announces plans to table going after $EBAY for the foreseeable future. eBay is navigating several major legal and regulatory issues, including a revived cyberstalking lawsuit, whistleblower claims, and European regulatory actions.

  @mimibunvt I got a used headset on ebay for like $100 and it worked pretty well for me for a long time (the only issue is that the left controller stick has drift lol) But yeah it would be really fun to do, I hope you can find a nice headset someday if you do get one 🙏

  Look at the data mismatch: It reads "6,479 Feedback left (viewing 1-25) Page 1 of 260" at the bottom, but the table output states "This member has not left any feedback comments." The server reads the count but blocks the text. Absolute database breakdown. @eBay @AuctionBytes

  Devils Joint (@DevilsJointX) reported 27 minutes ago

  @NJDevilsMusee I get my cards (for the most part) by buying single packs and unseen auctions on ebay. Never more than 2 packs from the same store- always from different places so they aren’t coming from the same cases- this also works with upperdeckEPack. The issue with this is you might not find single packs of certain sets- I saw OPC platinum one pack 35$- I never buy those- I’ve gotten big OPC Platinum hits from regular OPC packs bc they toss cards from other sets into the cheaper sets-I don’t really know sites to look at regarding x accounts or breakers or anything bc I mostly just do it on my own and my process/the way I seperate where I get them from and when I get them has proven to be a solid. If this doesn’t make sense dm me lol

  🔥 $GME 👉 $TDDY 👉 $EBAY 🔥 Y’all realize Ryan Cohen has already put many of the pieces in place that would be needed to acquire eBay. If an LBO were also used to leverage a significant portion of eBay’s institutional ownership, that could materially reduce the cash required to complete the transaction. They wouldn’t necessarily need to issue anywhere near all of the newly authorized shares—even at GameStop’s current share price. If that’s the strategy, things could get very interesting from here. Of course, this is still speculation until the company announces something, but the pieces are becoming difficult to ignore.

  High Ready System (@highreadysystem) reported 32 minutes ago

  @amerpipedream I saw a comment about how a product on eBay is cheaper than on your site, but the issue with market platforms like Amazon and eBay, are the excruciating fees just so you can "tap into their vast customer base". I have a personal eBay account for selling my household goods, and I easily lose ~20% of my total sales on taxes and eBay fees alone, not including losses from shipping and packaging. There should be some understanding that depending on distributor, supplier, and volume, wholesale prices differ. And that there is a limit to how low a product can be sold for before it turns into a charity. Online netizens on Xitter love to talk about hiring domestic nationals as opposed to H1B or TFWs, but they also want to price match Amazon, eBay, and/or foreign websites. At the end of the day, what can we even do. 🤷

  There are people who take advantage of eBay’s 14 day return policy when it comes to #TCG /sports cards stuff. It’s profitable to just buy raw cards, digitally grade them, and return the cards that don’t grade well, and send in the best ones for grading. But it’s ****** up, as requires the seller to have to go to the post office the first time AND they have to pay the return shipping. eBay doesn’t give sellers the option of returns. It is the same issue I had when selling crypto mining rigs, even with $50k of sales, eBay always sided with the buyers(Bitcoin mining rigs are expensive right? Not when you just buy a $2.5k rig then return it after 14 days of overclocking it with third party firmware that overheats it till the heat syncs just fall of the hashboards. Though more unscrupulous scammers would litterally just rip out our working like new hashboards and replace them with broken spare parts before returning them. One person even listed our hash boards he ripped out of his unit before the refund request was granted. eBay granted them the refund and let them keep the stolen hashboards listed. At what point does eBay become legally liable for knowingly facilitating the sales of stolen goods? The answer to that is never, as we used macro photos, videos of packing, and stickers to show tampering and marked the hashboards with sharpie and photographed that to prove it was stolen, eBay knew the buyer stole our hashboards and let them sell them and let them get their refund and made us pay the return shipping- and sure enough, it came back with all broken hashboards, and eBay did not care). I’ve been researching the TCG space, as it fascinates me as a store of value. Satoshi is a Japanese name, and TCG (TCG = trading card games, specifically pokemon) was huge in Japan prior to US. Before Bitcoin, high value TCG cards could be used as a storage and transfer of money. Can stack of Pokemon cards worth $100k in a backpack and walk through security at an airport, but for some reason it’s problem if you bring $100k cash. Just saying, while I’m still all in crypto, I kinda appreciate TCG cards as being even more anonymous store of value than bitcoin. Pokemon has a longer track record of value growth than bitcoin, as it existed well before bitcoin. So while a smaller total market cap (billions not trillions), it’s sorta become a safer long term investment than most, as many products especially sealed products and first gen cards have outpaced both gold and the stock market overall. The Pokemon crowd thinks it’s a bubble, because they want to believe it is because they just like collecting cards and want to be able to afford the ones they want, but they sound exactly like people in 2015-2017 calling bitcoin a bubble. Imo take just one billionaire or 9 fig investor to double the market cap by buying up the floor(including the lower grade vintage ones and the less rare vintage ones, pop control isn’t the way to go to grow a market, buying up the floor is. Was only 10 million of the Pokemon English first edition cards printed, while today there’s 2 billion cards printed per year. There’s 21 million bitcoins. If the Pokemon crowd knew what was good for them, they’d start making that comparison to Bitcoin and argue that all first edition cards should have a floor of at least $1k(which is way way more realistic than the $100 XRP people. If every first edition card printed(even the ones torn and stuff) surpassed $100 each, it’d add less than $10b to the market cap. Seeing how collective crypto market caps added $10b of value many times in just an hour, it’s not even unrealistic.). Though the Pokemon crowd doesn’t promote it that way(they should, would be easy af for all them with a binder of mid condition first gen cards to get rich lol, they’re allergic to money though unfortunately). Anyways got off topic from the eBay issue. eBay really needs to fix that, they should make a device for sellers to scan cards and just stop allowing returns

  @RetroDerezzed I know what you mean there. My mother ordered three 256gb cards for her security cameras that I installed yesterday. Sadly not knowing she ordered them from ebay and got send 'lenovo' cards, obvious fakes which the camera reported a problem with and the pd also had issues. I found some on Viking but the prices were so insane she had to settle for 64GB. Ok good enough for 2 weeks storage of footage but still, it was only a few years ago I bought a bunch of 512 GB cards for my ODE's and they were around the same price £30 or so. AI and data centers (read survailence centres) have a heck of a lot to answer for.

  oh great, latam is in trouble now if these groups start targeting it. The security is laughably bad and so much so that even gov web sites in places like Mexico and Brazil do absurd things sometimes like disabling right click in the browser while also running 5+ year out of date wordpress based apps. I live in Argentina currently and find this a bit disturbing since mercado libre and mercado pago are tightly linked like how ebay and paypal used to be. Mercado pago getting pwned could turn into a major dumpster fire. I see this thing growing in latam in general because the comical security also extends to basically all mobile apps like rapi and pedidosYa(like uber eats) as just two almost obvious examples that almost certainly will get pwned eventually.

  @alphafox I have an NES with a refurbished cartridge slot I bought on eBay, and the seller said to try playing games without pushing the cartridge down. In fact, it usually won’t work if you push the cartridge down. (Obviously they’ve modified it. Maybe this is where the rumor started?)
