Patrick Seven (@Patrick98109645) reported@Christo43252701 I've got a couple of rebuilt ones that people use for the paintball and larva. They're basically bewfwang radios with the Harris shell. I do have one though I bought off eBay that ended up coming from china. After about 20 freaking weeks it finally showed up and was an actual working Harris radio with all the original guts. It took me a while to find somebody that could help me program it because I couldn't find the software anywhere I'm just not that tech savvy. Was able to look up the instructions and could hand program it no problem. Funny enough the real one constantly crashes and changes functions channels frequencies Etc all on its own. Basically it's junk and I let my kid play with it LOL But as a side note I now have a contact to a seller who can get me any piece of those radios and similar that I need whether it be a battery latch a weird spring a **** or a button face LOL

J & C Collectibles (@JC_colleccoast) reported🚨 SOS Card Peeps! Need some help ASAP please. 🚨 I received an offer on My Acuff 1/1 card on eBay. The guy offered me a fair price and is now negotiating with me…I’m totally fine with that, but in our chat (on eBay) the user name keeps changing…when I click on the first name at the top of the chat it seems like he is a legit seller/buyer. When the other name pops up, it says “error” Is someone trying to scam me or is this some kind of issue with eBay’s messaging?!? Thanks in advance!

Paul Branham (@BoilerPaulie) reportedAnother surprise preliminary earnings announcement from $GME today premarket. I like these. The highlights: - sales down just under 20% Y/Y due to last year including the launch of the Nintendo Switch 2, planned store closures, and divestiture of operations in France - operating income up over 125% Y/Y due to @ryancohen’s relentless pursuit of efficiency - net income up ~75%, aided by a large equity stake in eBay and partially offset by a mark to market loss in digital assets and receivables - cash & marketable securities down 41.7% mainly from conversion of derivative position in eBay to equity stake Official ER drop expected on September 8. They also had a separate announcement, probably bigger news for the underlying security price, that the VWAP reference period for the convertible note exchange is terminated because they are issuing cash in lieu of shares for a portion of the agreed upon debt being retired. - $358.4M in cash spent - 55.5M shares of common stock issued - approximately $1.4B of convertible debt retired, or 1/3 of the total - $2.8B in convertible debt remains, $1.1B from the Project Rocket indenture (2030) and $1.7B from the Project Wee indenture (2032) - “GameStop expects that participating noteholders may purchase or sell shares of Common Stock or enter into or unwind derivative transactions to adjust their positions, including purchases of Common Stock to close out short positions. These activities could increase or decrease the market price of the Common Stock or the Exchange Notes, and the effect may be material.” Following some volatility on the announcements, GameStop trading up about 4% premarket. 4h chart shown here.

EF Comix (@11975MHz) reportedHad an Air Force family live down the street from me. The oldest son was the neighborhood know-it-all and show-off. Of course, he had the nicest, most expensive bike among all the kids. Mongoose had a deal going with military exchanges, and last time I visited the nearest base commissary, they still do. Anyway this kid had a Mongoose. The Blue Max branded Mongoose. About two years later his dad was caught doing PCS fraud. Lost his commission. Had to sell his prize 1960s Corvette he kept in the garage. Had to sell the house pronto because the Air Force yanked his BAH the day they yanked his commission. They even tried to give away a Hawaiian vacation to whoever bought that stupid house, the poor fools. They never sold it. They defaulted. They showed up in town a few years later, the entire family riding motorcycles. They had no home anymore, so they just rode motorcycles, as a family, around the United States. Anyway if you still have your Mongoose or Hutch or Redline, they go for a lot of money on Ebay now.

Tyler (@SeeifIhaveit) reportedBeware of this eBay seller. Purchased a J Baez lot when he was hot and I had to cancel and refund him because it sold on Mercari probably 15 minutes prior. He purchased it literally as I was taking down the eBay listing. I messaged him and apologized and refunded him immediately. Well… he left negative feedback and said he never got the cards.

Just Looking By The Way (@JustLooking_BTW) reported@ChevanceLo1 @TrevorAllenMD @YugiMuto91 Literally just takes a eBay listing & dropping it off at an ups or etc. to sell this thing, like you can’t be this slow to think winning the tournament was what he was referring too

Chase Jordan (@goatcollect) reportedFollowing the clear confusion between labeling a jersey with a MEARS letter game used, I am hearing @eBay and @GoldinCo have finally decided to change their policies. No word on exactly what the shift is, but it is clear @eBay has recognized the liability created by selling objects as game used that their own internal team would clearly have reason to believe are not. Times have changed and credit to eBay for responding to it. Probably saved themselves from big issues down the road.

The Nature Of Code (@thenatureofcode) reported$GME Preliminary Q2: Sales expected $780–800M (down YoY on store closures and prior-year launches). Operating income $150–170M and net income $290–310M, boosted by eBay investment gains. Strong balance sheet remains.

The Really Bad Golfer (@therlybadglfer) reported@eBay why do you allow terrible people like this on your platform? He replies to feedback with threats and stalking (when I ran a background check), brings in users family's (you have a 10 year old), deflects any blame or responsibility, and it just horrible. You should kick him off the platform.

Ryzm (@Goeun_6121) reportedGameStop expects Q2 net sales of $780M to $800M, down from $972.2M a year earlier, as store closures and its exit from France weigh on revenue. The company sees cash and marketable securities at $5.05B to $5.07B and net income of $290M to $310M, including gains from its eBay stake investment. Shares fell about 2% premarket.

Alison Scott 🐻 (@bnosilagm) reported@CalBearsHistory Every time these are brought out for the season count down I have to tell myself to stay away from Ebay. I really don't need another thing to collect.

Kurt S. Altrichter, CRPS® (@kurtsaltrichter) reportedGameStop is about to post a near-record profit. Almost none of it came from selling video games. The company guided to $290 to $310 million in net income last quarter, up from $169 million a year ago. Roughly $238 million of that is a paper gain on its eBay stake, not its stores. Actual sales fell to about $790 million from $972 million, down 19%. A video-game retailer now earns more from a stock bet than from its business. Ryan Cohen even made a $56 billion run at buying eBay outright, and eBay called it neither credible nor attractive. The register is shrinking while the balance sheet plays hedge fund. The stock tells the real story. Shares slid from $22 to $18 over the past 3 months, and a near-record profit has not stopped the bleed. A trading gain does not repeat on a schedule. The store decline does. $GME

Brian Pakett (@BrianPakett22) reported@PatrickHarmonn @eBay Why bid though if immediately ask to retract? I’ve had same issue re never paying but don’t understand the “cancel my bid” request.

josh (@heyitspixel69) reportedPeople really need to look at where $GME's profitability is actually coming from. The core retail business isn't funding any of these investments because store revenue keeps dropping year after year. The cash pile being parked in Treasury bonds and eBay stock came directly from diluting shareholders and issuing convertible debt. They are basically collecting interest on capital raised by printing new stock while closing down physical locations. When your net income depends on yield from diluted money while total retail sales keep collapsing, you aren't seeing a business turnaround. You are just watching a retail chain slowly convert itself into a passive investment fund. I've been saying that for more than 2 years now.

Chris Swanski (@ChrisSwanski) reported@CoCCollectibles Yeah. Still nice though. Don't feel bad. I owned THE Brady card for a minute in 2004. Got it for $400 from Ebay back when the photos were usually terrible. Seller said it was NM, but I couldn't tell from the pics. I trusted him. It wasn't NM, so I sold it at a loss.

Sam Parr (@thesamparr) reportedFormer CEO of PayPal + Inuit Bill Harris on Moneywise today. He broke down his portfolio and expenses (and what it was like working w/ Elon + thiel. - Net worth: ~$100m. Divorce cut it roughly in half - ~$50m in operating companies he's starting, ~$25m diversified securities, ~$25m bonds. No PE/hedge/alts - "absurd fees" - PayPal/eBay exit: personally "more than 20 million, less than 50" - Personal Capital: sold to Empower for $825m with $23b AUM; his take was north of $100m post-tax - New venture: ~$10m of his own money in - Total annual burn: ~$70-80k all in, property tax included ("well less than a hundred thousand bucks") - No mortgage (cottage paid off), no car, bikes to work - Owned a ton of stuff (houses, cars, planes). Sold it all because it took too much time to maintain.

Jeffcoly | ZarGates (@Jeffcoly) reported@WSJ Sales $780–800M vs $972M a year ago (Switch 2 comp, store closures, France exit). Operating income still jumped to $150–170M from $66M.Net income $290–310M includes about $238M of eBay-related gains and a ~$75M digital-asset loss. Cash is down to ~$5.06B after converting the eBay derivative into 43.4M shares. Shrink-the-store retail plus a balance-sheet company.

Germainrain (@germainraine) reported@cmpayneful @GameStopOnChain Consider this a rabbit hole, but if you choose to go down, will lead to more… like XRP. Surprisingly this stuff connected to Epstein, which is why the DOJ is gonna be important. If I were to guess I think eBay was permitting trafficking kids likewise to JP Morgan
