  @DanzelAlex Just unscrew the panels, and take them down normally! 🤦 Then you can put them up in your next place or sell them on ebay to recoup your losses! 🤦

  When selling on eBay if you see a third-party shipping company do you have issues or concern shipping the card? I always seem to have problems with ship my cards.

  I think that every time EBay or another platform has issues they should reduce the fees for the equivalent amount of time.

  @Oscvr9_ Hello! Best way to price sealed is to refer to eBay last solds for sealed - do not count any unsealed. Often I find issue with sold items under “best offer” and the listed price being the sold price. For this reason I always use 130point to get most accurate prices w/ offers.

  @ThePokeMD It’s fine had a similar issue before. eBay rep basically said if it is a fake card then it will always get rejected so this “miscategorization” isn’t related to authenticity etc

  So I made a complaint, got auto response saying no regulations broken. Appealed, response 12 hours later saying same 😯😳 @eBay_UK @eBay Why do you allow sellers to defraud buyers by letting them cancel the order, change the price, ask them to reorder, & hope they won't notice?

  The photograph that disappeared for 150 years Richard Carrington was an astronomer. In 1859, he looked through a telescope and saw something nobody had recorded before. A huge flash erupted from the Sun. Less than a day later, a powerful solar storm hit Earth. Telegraph systems failed. Auroras appeared far beyond their usual range. The event became known as the Carrington Event. But there was one strange problem. Nobody knew what Carrington looked like. No photograph of him could be found. For decades, historians searched museums and archives for a missing portrait. Nothing. Then, in 2025, an archivist at the Royal Astronomical Society checked something much less obvious. eBay. She found an old photograph being sold by a shop in Pittsburgh. The seller had simply listed it as: “Photo of Mr Carrington.” It was him. On the back, faint writing gave another clue: “R C Carrington, Esquire for C V Walker, Esquire.” The photograph had been missing for about 150 years. Now it has a home in the Royal Astronomical Society archives.

  Designed and sold my own bike parts on eBay First £1k online Absolutely zero clue what I was doing I just saw a space for a product, knew how to get stuff 3D printed, and built the product I wanted for myself - Ordered 3D printed parts for ~£7 - Final assembly + packaging ~£2 - Sold for £35 bosh Only shut it down bc a friend (competitor in the industry) asked me if I had insurance Spent a whole day phoning up insurance companies None of whom offered to cover me And bc the bike part was related to steering… I bottled it and shut down the biz (Didnt fancy my chances getting sued over an untested product if one of my buyers lost his teeth in a 1v1 with the floor) Boy oh boy that was a fun summer

  LONG READ: Off-brand post, but as a longtime @Nike shareholder, this needs to be said. Nike used to be a company you could invest in and trust to run itself. Now the stock is trading in the high $30’s, a fresh 12-year low, down roughly 76% from its all-time high of $163.63 in November 2021. This didn’t happen overnight. It’s been a slow burn downhill. In 2020, Nike handed the company to John Donahoe, a former eBay and ServiceNow executive with a consulting background and no real history in sneakers or sport. The stock hit its all-time high under him in November 2021, but that wasn’t a product win, it was pandemic tailwinds. Lockdown spending and a digital sales boom carried the whole brand. Donahoe leaned into it, pulling back from wholesale partners like Foot Locker and Amazon to chase direct-to-consumer sales. It worked while the boom lasted. The second it ended, that same move handed Hoka, On, and New Balance the shelf space to take over. He spent the rest of his tenure cutting costs and squeezing profit out of old product instead of investing in anything new. On June 28, 2024, Nike’s stock fell 20% in a single day after weak earnings and guidance for a 10% revenue decline, its worst trading day in 44 years as a public company. It never really recovered. Nike has now erased roughly $200 billion in market value since its 2021 peak, the largest drawdown in the company’s history. Even Jordan Brand, the crown jewel, isn’t safe. Revenue fell from $8.7 billion in 2024 to $7 billion in 2026, two straight years of decline. Hoka went from $153 million to $2.6 billion in sales in eight years. On grew 285% in three years. Nike handed them the shelf space and gave people no reason to buy new. Stop putting bean counters and consultants in charge of a brand people love. Put product people back in charge. Open the SNKRS app right now. The Jordan 4 “Rare Air” Tour Yellow drops September 5th, a 20-year-old colorway from 2006, priced at $220. A shoe that’s already been made once, repackaged, made cheaper than its original release and marked up. Stop chasing what flippers on StockX think a re-release is worth. Price product for the people who actually want to wear it. Every dollar Nike hands to resale culture is a dollar it’s not making itself, and a customer it’s not building loyalty with. Nike has an entire team of engineers dedicated to fighting bots on SNKRS, blocking billions of fake entries every month just to protect launches like this. You wouldn’t need bot protection if you weren’t manufacturing the scarcity yourself, especially when a good chunk of these same releases end up marked down in outlets and clearance stores months later anyway. So what was the artificial scarcity even for? Elliott Hill spent 32 years at Nike, most of it running product, commerce, and marketing, before retiring in 2020. Now he’s back, cleaning up a mess a consultant-era CEO left behind. Even so, JPMorgan just downgraded the stock again this month, warning the pain from the turnaround won’t stabilize until fiscal 2028. Bringing back someone who actually gets the brand is the right move. But, it shouldn’t have taken a 76% collapse to get there.

  Adam Gray on YT was talking about fake patches today going back to 2007. According to Upper Deck they have staff on hand now that saw it happen in 2001!! Personally I think the current UD story is BS as this is the 3rd time they have changed the story on this card but they did say it recently. The latest UD version is someone pulled one of the first Kobe Patch cards and immediately swapped it into this card and they have someone on staff that remembers them doing it in 2001 ish. In 1999 UD told me about this specific card and another patch card when I asked them what the future of patch card looked like. They instead told me about the best and worst Patches they had seen so far while they were testing. I ran a cron job from my GameJersey server to search ebay and the newsgroups for these cards. A few years later I found this card on eBay from a highly rated seller that sold boxes and cases and, at the time, a rather large Kobe collection. I inquired and they said it was a gift from UD to someone who had passed. Around 2012 I had to call UDA about the first 1 of 1 Game Jersey card ever made because it didnt show up with their online verification and has a phone number to verify. After doing that I inquired about this card and after a few transfers I was told that my card was a fake and they were floating around the past few months. I assured them mine had providence and was in my collection for years at this point. They shrugged and said they didnt have anything further to add.

  @selStreams @austeregrim @RDKLInc You can't buy CPAPs, for example, on eBay. They are class II medical devices and their requires a doctor's prescription. Some people have tried to get around that by selling a CPAP travel bag for $300, which just so happened to have a CPAP in it. But eBay has cracked down on that, too. Not all medical devices require a prescription, though.

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.

  A funny thing about ebay for me is when I get a wild hair up my *** on buying stuff, like a new HDD to replace a dead one in my server, I'll peruse the auctions with current bids ~50% below market value, and then place a max bid of ~80% market value. Often times I do this, I see that someone else has already placed a higher max bid than I'm willing to do. So I feel like a gremlin running around ebay casually helping sellers and causing the other bidders to lose a chance at a true deal. I got a $420 camera lens for $200 doing this method though.
