Hannah Eden (@HannahEDishman) reported@XRPspider I totally understand your frustration, but you ordered them at a price that you agreed on and you received what you ordered. If you want a lower price you can get it at those locations. I don’t think I would feel comfortable doing this as a seller, but the seller goes to the trouble of finding items that they can mark up. That’s how it works. I resell on eBay. I search for hours for items that are low cost that can be resold. My Free People dress with tags may have only cost me $3 and resell at $50, but the work that I put into finding it at that low price is my job. I’m kind of on the fence on this.

EverydayReseller (@EverydayResell) reportedDay 194 Total sales: $599.00 eBay earnings: $102.82 Buy cost (COG): $15.54 Net profit: $87.28 ROI: 562% Today was definitely an unusual one. On paper, it looks like a slow day, but the story is a little different. 3 higher dollar orders were canceled before they shipped, which meant they hit today's numbers even though I still have the inventory ready to sell again. That's one thing I've learned about reselling, not every low profit day is a bad day. Sometimes it's returns. Sometimes it's cancellations. Sometimes it's just timing. The important part is that those items are still sitting on my shelf, ready to be sold to the next buyer. You can't control cancellations, but you can control how quickly you relist, how consistently you source, & whether you keep moving forward. Tomorrow is another opportunity, & those canceled items are already back in inventory waiting for their next sale. That's just part of the business. On to Day 195. 📦💪

Bandido (@BluestripBlue) reported@brian_2o3 @gamestop I think it’s the other way around. I think he bought cheap broken consoles on eBay and got a higher value through GameStop credit
-
Clutch (@ClutchWuff) reported@TazztheWolf @FoxNamedAri You know, I actually just ordered a fat PS2 off of eBay to replace my broken one.

THE MINUTEMAN FILES: (@Wefactcheckedit) reportedI want to sue this piece of **** website its full of fraud mail fraud and criminal thieves and eBay protect them not the sellers we had multiple accounts over the years everytime some scumbag attacked us and shut us down for no reason other than we had a better price.
-
NEOAethyr (@NEOAethyr) reported@ChrisPirillo The problem with support these days could be down to them wanting to avoid the craziness. Think about it, half the folks wanting to chat with support are probably pissed off. The other day I saw someone say ebay has no support, I know they do. You just gotta get through the bot.
-
A Floyd (@Mrshoujo) reported@gamestop Broken stuff which will end up on eBay "for parts" and then all the retro gaming channels on YouTube will buy it up and make videos repairing it all.
-
brokeboycards (@brokeboycardz) reported@MK5Cards I’m wondering when they’re gonna open back up, it’s kind of a bummer. I’ve had issues getting distribution as well, I’m basically **** out of luck for getting anything retail value. I’ve gotta buy in bulk from other eBay distributors and see if I can manage to make money on it is basically how it’s going to work for the next year or so. Nobody will sell or distribute to anyone unless you have an actual store front. I can’t afford to buy a brick and mortar storefront right now, who can afford that kind of overhead lol.
-
OG Uncle Sam (@WestCoast_Goodz) reported@CardPurchaser I don’t know about selling more, but I do know what’s stopping me from sourcing more on eBay — the new soft bids they implemented. My buying is down over 30% since they rolled that out.
-
Tom (@comingconflict) reported@Burnstation3D Get a refurb K1 on eBay (they are on coupon right now) and call it a day. The issue is parts availability. once you get to a certain point the parts may not even be available (thanks Creality) . You can get a K1 for like 200$ something

Shoebox_Stadium (@ShoeboxStadium) reportedWas trying to put some cards up for sale on eBay today, but the option to set flat price shipping was gone. Anyone else have this issue?

HarryWarrick (@BooksByHarry) reported@WCRaustler Good question. I wrote my first non-fiction book in 1998 (at 28) it was a simple eBook called Autopilot eBay which showed people how to sell digital delivery items on that marketplace. I offered it as an PLR product. It was eventually translated into 16 languages. Most of those by customers who translated in long before AI and made it available for their country. I did not start sooner because I did not have an idea for a book before that. I later used that same kind of idea, finding a common problem, and providing a simple proven solution. To write many more books. Just getting into fiction now after helping many fiction authors find their way in the publishing process. It matters less when you start but how well you finish. For many it is just publishing that one meaningful book. For others it is an unspoken passion that drives them.

John Smith (@UrbanExplorer00) reported@JSM1884 Even markets in places like Buenos Aires are ***************. Desperate broke people on eBay are the best hope. Got my match issue tagged unworn Dock Sud on there for £20 after telling the woman nobody has heard of them and it'll be a tough sell. Same with my River tank for £16.

Wo Jake (Archived) (@woj4ke) reportedHow to get 70% discounts on Hotels: Hotel Employee Discounts places like Marriott have this search up ‘Marriott MMP’ and you’ll go down the rabbit hole, reddit can tell you who sells this (or ebay) copy/pasted.

ptr4CM (@PTRforCM) reported@sethweathers My family member works in Costco and shared this. The scammer will buy a product and keeps it new at home. The scammer will return after a month a used or broken one from eBay and get the full refund. The scammer sells the new item in the market place or eBay and keeps the profit

Coldbee (@cburnaman) reported.@eBay Proving identity to update my account is an absolute joke. $1000s in fees you had no problem taking from my account immediately.

sugarshaz👻 (@sugarshaz19) reported@ybtweetz I bought the Summer issues off of eBay

Alice 🌊❤️🔥🌒 (@Alice82669242) reported@ThrillaRilla369 Toy R US perhaps closed down due to bad management? I noticed if a toy sold out on eBay the price would surge, and had seen toys r us followed as they raised their price to match eBay’s price on certain things 😮💨 kids toys at a toy store at Christmas time- to say the least. Bad times calls for desperate measure?
-
Satchel Price (@SatchelPrice) reportedlowball offers are a non-issue, at least on eBay. set BIN minimums, ignore "what's your lowest" messages and you're basically set
-
Ryan Davis (@RyanDavisIND) reported@SteveFrenchAMZ The problem is that you don't know until later when Amazon flags them. On the other hand, eBay Global Shipping is fantastic. If something goes wrong in the process, eBay buys your item and liquidates it. The seller and buyer both keep their money.

KarmaWraith (@KarmaWraith) reported@akiraa_tanaka These sell for around $300 broken on ebay. Found one in a bin at the local thrift store last year and flipped it
-
blaksony (@blaksony) reported@LibOrNormal One problem might be that the kids parents put them up to it in order to get an autograph they can sell on eBay.

angie (@euphoria_atr) reported@4Miathebrave If you are going to purchase physical copies, I suggest the nitro store! You can find the copy you want to purchase, give the link, title and price to a proxy or middleman who will purchase it, store it until you pay for shipping and then send it to you! Or, you could obtain a Japanese address for free with a packaging forwarding service, make a nitro store account yourself, pay yourself, and then have it forward to you with no middleman required! There is also j-list, based in America, that sells the offical english versions of the games! It’s all in eng, is easy to navigate, and is domestic for you, so no proxy required. eBay is full of resellers and scalpers who buy up all the stock, and resell it for higher prices. If you have issues with limited stock always being sold out, please do not support or buy from the scalpers and resellers on eBay, as that will just make the issue worse. Good luck!

***** Kaperki (@carjdun) reported@SecretService They robbed me by blackmailing because of 2 stolen phones we purchased from eBay without our knowledge And blackmailed me that if I don’t give the money on my bank account , they will shut down our business , and Scott Windish opened my car glove box and took 3k cash and took my phone on the way to Wells Fargo and we waited at the Wells Fargo teller line 10 min and teller wrote a 39.000 dollars cashiers check under SECRET SERVICE and after they took me to STARBUCKS and made me sign paperworks…

Liesa 🍊🇺🇸 (@liesagonzalez74) reported@gregcello We had this and the gold castle. I got rid of both and the pirate ship when my kids got older. There was a huge protest and I had to hunt both down on ebay. Now my grandkids play with them when they come over.
