    Gotta love spending an arm and a leg to get my card graded, getting a 10, putting it up on EBay and then basically being at the mercy of the dude who bought it through PSA and if he feels like paying for the card he bid on or not, Meanwhile the market continues to go down. **** this. There should be more seller protection, to give the buyer 7 days to pull out of a deal is insane.

    It was very fun going to that auction. Proxibid doesn't take in bids properly yet. The fast clicking of eBay is necessary. Im not sure what they do but copilots can figure it out. The security issue you still meed someone who really knows what's going on for and proxibid

    @kennyf626 $30? not happening. $10 then slow growth for the next decade. moass doesnt exist and purchasing ebay just makes the squeeze thesis that much more irrelevant

    So this is how stupid UK has gone @10DowningStreet @eBay To buy a mulitool in UK to send to friend in USA is NOT possible. So you have to set up US account and worked around the system. No wonder net legal migration is down and people are LEAVING. SHITE.

    @Itsfoss Works ok here in firefox and chromium-ungoogled. If I'm gonna get blocked by a site, most of the time it's when I'm using ff. (even got a phone call from ebay once because of it) I didn't have an issue.

    @MindofMarvelous @footlocker It’s ridiculous. They’re on eBay now for $250. You can’t even get connected to customer service with Foot Locker either. And they wonder why sales are down…

    I cried bc I ****** up my eBay order for New Teen Titans books but then I told the seller the issue and he put the item back up in like 2 minutes. Moral of the story: never be afraid to sound desperate and stupid in front of strangers. Sometimes you get rewarded for it!

    @foxenflask One play I’ve thought about is they issue massive convertible debt above tbink 20-30b and after that’s priced gme runs way past it so debt holders profit and memes are allowed to fly and gme gets eBay for the low with a tender offer

    @SEOSENA7 I am doing the same, I am up to around 10 issues! Where did you find the best place to shop for them? I am just using eBay. Also when did you snag vol 1 and any advice around that? Did you do first prints? That’s what I am trying to do.

    @beefrespecter @UpperDeckSports @eBay The best method is to compare against a known good copy and/or trusted hobby resources. Lots of issues with these MJ's, but one huge red flag was actually the source account. Even easier to spot, when counterfeits are listed by accounts/sites known for selling bad items.

  • Handre

    When Pierre Omidyar launched eBay in September 1995, he faced what economists call the fundamental problem of exchange: how do strangers trust each other enough to trade? The government's answer had always been more regulations, more enforcement agencies, more bureaucrats with badges. Omidyar tried something radical instead. He built a simple feedback system where buyers and sellers rated each other after every transaction. By 1997, eBay was processing over 800,000 auctions quarterly with a fraud rate below 0.01% (while traditional mail-order fraud ran closer to 2-3%). No government oversight. No regulatory compliance officers. Just buyers and sellers policing themselves through voluntary reputation scores that actually meant something to their future business. The system evolved organically as users found creative ways to signal trustworthiness and spot bad actors. Power sellers emerged with 99.8% positive feedback ratings that took years to build but could vanish overnight with shoddy service. Compare that to your average DMV employee, who can treat you like garbage for decades with zero career consequences because civil service protections make them basically unfireable. Today's gig economy runs on the same principle eBay proved in the '90s. Uber drivers maintain 4.7-star averages not because transportation regulators threaten them, but because their next ride depends on it. Amazon sellers obsess over customer reviews while government postal services lose your packages and shrug. When your reputation follows you everywhere and customers can instantly switch to competitors, you don't need bureaucrats breathing down your neck to deliver quality service.

    @Disyouskol @BriManIU I don't know what to tell you man, if you got no problem with online scalpers I promise you'll be fine with in person scalpers and you can get your tower off eBay for less than the price of a park ticket and airfare. Feels like you're crashing out for the sake of crashing out

    @DeItaone @ryancohen time to go bro. Btc at ath, eBay at ath, abusing loyal shareholders…only hyping bluffing and issuing on backs of the gullible. We will vote no, and you need to step down. You said it best, gme is a dog under your leadership. Step down.

    @thasminlover considering the costs would need to be under £10pp for them to not lose money I would have been surprised if they spent extra money on the shipping rather than creating the card itself + with the customs issues they were probably just as gagged to see it on eBay as we were 😭.

    @DoniTheMisfit I’ve bought a number of laptops from Amazon third-party sellers and off eBay over the past 25 years with zero unexpected issues (some were bought knowing there were things to be fixed - usually drives).
