@mpp75214 @ModeledBehavior Ask Ebay. Its astonishing how these rubes fall for everything, hooks, line and sinker. Yeah, get all worked up about Dr Suess but no problem with the Capitol being attacked.

@johntylerchris @star_wars_crazy I know, I've gotten everyone of them, and never had a problem. Over the past year Star Wars comics have become eBay gold, so I imagine a lot of resellers have crashed the site.

@hiandlois @jessesingal On that, Mein Kampf has no trouble circulating. This whole situation strikes me as Penguin Publishing and Ebay going for woke points

@Danieljloeb @CharlesMBlow I get it but my complaint is that they were forced out of print. I can buy the Elders of Zion on eBay but not these Dr. Seuss books. The world is upside down.

@DukatBot No book burning. A company was progressive in seeing a problem with its books. That’s it. Over and done, and to sell your book, just can’t do it on eBay.

@klcmurphy @allahpundit Don't get all morally smug on me. It's a free market, people can do what they want. Ebay is within their rights to do this, just as the publisher is with their rights to stop printing the books. I just happen to think shutting down sales of the old books is dumb and unnecessary.

@Hoidy Only one for sale on ebay that's $899 right now 🤯 How much was a spot on the box break? I'd be tempted to send it to PSA but then the hype could die down by the time you get it back in 2022

@AlanMCole its purely reactive. ebay could in theory enumerate every single historically malign book (mein kampf is obvious but not singular) or it could merely focus on enforcing stuff that is most likely to get it in trouble

@grevenboi @KEEMSTAR This book was published in 1950 and there is still a demand for it as evident from the prices people are currently willing to pay on ebay. They are no longer publishing ANY copies making the amount finite. of course the price will go up as supply goes down.

@Tskrlj @crazypill I send that article to everyone on ebay who lists medium format cameras or film as 120mm. some of the responses are really aggressive but most just say thanks and fix the listing

@colemanglenn @thomaschattwill There are currently 10 listings on eBay for a 78 r.p.m. record called "Bake Dat Chicken Pie," in which part of the refrain is literally the n-word repeated over and over—but no problem! The inconsistent, panicky, cowardly, responses of corporations to these things are appalling.

Continuing this thread ... When Amazon quietly delists or down ranks books, some classic books get banned, and places like Amazon, AbeBooks, and eBay debate not selling books, that's algorithmic and administrative hazard control. Wait for FB market place etc. to weigh in, too.

@werelemming @ceralor Nah, "Friend" in a professional email sounds too much like all the junk I get from China Amazon/eBay when I have issues that are mostly resolved with "will you make good review if refund?"

@DonnaFrejlev @JDVance1 distribution group C (ebay) straight up sells the products of child slavery and supports a nation that does genocide yet dr.suess is too much.... “I know, up on top you are seeing great sights, but down here at the bottom we, too, should have rights.”

@gpurcell @conor64 My conjecture is that ebay acted out of self-interest due to the prominence of the issue, not because they give a **** about these particular books. Maybe the announcement alone would have been enough, maybe not. The media coverage lubricated the slope.

@Bry2638939 @CJDate @MrAndyNgo Then why did eBay shut down all accounts selling ANY Dr. Suess books?

@JarekFA @thomaschattwill @eBay is “safer” for eliminating mr.potato head or dr. seuss? no. root issues not addressed. moreover it 2) creates humans ill-equipped to make their own decisions about ambiguous references and contextualize them for themselves. ie “dr seuss is problematic and we cease publishing”

@bahamutfan I know that one. 2 years ago I bought a PSone with that chip bringing the whole rail to GND and blew the fuse. Bought a replacement from eBay and it fixed the issue. Maybe this one is also on its way out. But that one was quite hot compared to this. I’ll try and reflow it first.

@JarekFA @thomaschattwill @eBay or, if you like, I think it’s a misallocation of resources in 2 ways: 1) it misdirects attention, time, and institutional energy to solving superficial “problems” that are public facing instead of vigorously seeking solutions to root causes. ie do you feel the world

I’m not against acknowledging that Dr. Seuss contains imagery that hasn’t aged well, but I don’t think eBay wants to go down this rabbit hole. There are countless books that would be considered “offensive” to 2021 sensibilities. Excising them though isn’t the answer.

@DailyFantasyCPA @RichM_34 I know eBay issues 1099s if you reach a certain threshold in selling. Do you guys know if the capital gain tax would apply even if you didn’t meet that threshold to receive a 1099?

EBay just shut down Dr. Seuss books. This is super creepy, they were selling for thousands of dollars and now you can't get them at all. At first I thought they were just going out of print, little did I realize, they are going away for good. You can still buy Mein Kampf.

Dr. LongVersion⚠️
(@thelongversion) reported
@atrupar You're such a pompous dumbass. @eBay has now shut down accounts selling Seuss books, sending an email warning them not to resubmit their postings or suffer further consequences. You're a scab on journalism's ***.
