  The problem is you don’t understand accounting. You’re just looking at revenue. I can resell **** all day on eBay but if I pay $100 for it and sell it for $105, how much did I really make?

  If you want to contribute to someone actually rebuilding, you could donate even a few cents to my van fund. Its literally where I'll be living. I'm an experienced van lifer, due to a medical condition, its really best for me. I had to close my businesses 3 years ago. Then I lost my wheels 2 years ago after an accident & ended up selling assets to survive my revovery. Now I'm without wheels Airbnb hopping with my dog Joey until I get myself another van. I had to leave thd house it was not a good place for me physically or mentally. They aren't expensive. Im finding what I need is between3-5k in good enough condition & I'll fix & paint it myself while making a living selling vintage items I find on my travels & that i have in storage. Also experienced at ebay & online sales, 30 years experience selling & shipping & have even higher hopes now with Xmoney being available. I also still have assets to sell, so you could buy something that you like & its helpful. I will share my journey & daily experiences from the road. And I'll teach shipping tricks & how to spot things you can make money on. I like to teach. I did 1M on ebay the first time in 2000 & while I dont think I'll take it that far this time, I could teach you how. I work every day. Always have. But a hand up wouldn't hurt & I'm not normally one to ask. I'm used to doing the giving but the thought of being completely homeless does scare me. I dont drink or use drugs. I do use ********. In fact I used it to cure my cancer & I still microdose to keep it away. I ran a recovery & homeless mission from my last retail location. A van would completely prevent further personal disaster. So I'm working hard. I dont know if I'd survive the streets with my medical conditions. So, while I've always been the breadwinner & the giver my whole life, I'm in a bit of a pickle with my legs cut off & my hands tied. None of it was my fault, but I'm recovering alone. I dont have family to help. For once in my life, I wouldn't mind a little help. Its hard asking, but when I'm on my feet again, I can go back to being the giver. All I need is a van. Let's get me in one. I won't let anyone down.

  @ObjIFDividends As much as they suck if you deny it they will prob try and do an inad next id probably just take the return and relist since its only 10$ . How has your eBay account been the last couple months ? I went from 7-10 sales a week to maybe 1-3 and had a two week span in July with no sales it's been slow it seems

  Rippaverse is on track to make over $5 Million in revenue for 2026. Ethan Van Sciver has not only earned nothing outside of petty superchats, $1000 cover commissions, and ebay firesales, he has halted production on all of his comics because he can't afford to finish and fulfill them. Chicken ***** Shane Davis is in the shitter. Sunk 20-30k into BackHoleMeBro and is not going to end up making a profit off of that mess. Shane is going to be getting his backhole blown out both financially, and his reputation, for the next 2-3 years over that site until he quietly packs packs it up or triples down and goes into bankruptcy. Fat Horse Mandy Summers is starting to rack up a serious glut of unfilled books. She is approaching Ethan Van Sciver levels, and she has dragged Dale Keown's reputation into the mud with her as, the comic legend, Dale Keown, is now OFFICIALLY sitting on a late book that he owes backers. Worst of all, it's not even the coveted Pitt Omnibus. It's a single-volume trade paperback filled with ****** scans of old comic pages. You can get Pitt Trade Paperbacks RIGHT NOW for like $15 and they're from Image Comics, a real comic book company. And those use the original paint files so the art will be clear and crisp. Mandy is too stupid to pay Image Comics to get access to the original paint files and do the high-quality Pitt Omnibus that fans have been wanting since the 90s. With friends like Mandy, Dale doesn't need enemies. Dale would be in a better position if he had just left Pitt in the grave. No omnibus at all is better than this both for the fans and for Dale Keown's reputation. Ethan Van Sciver and his zeros are still LIMPING in 2026 and they still have 4 more months to fall even further. The BackMeBro Era of comicsgate is proving to be the worst one yet.

  @RedskinsArsenal Hell no. There may be a bubble, but it hasn’t hit yet. I did sell my all aces card if that’s what you’re referring to, 400 for a raw with 70k+ print run just doesn’t seem sustainable. The all aces card post was showing numbers coming down, but I think someone was manipulating the postings on eBay

  Dropshipping fake Jordans on eBay All auctions, made clear there was no receipt/authentication, usually went for $70-$100 Paid a guy named Tommy in HK $55 per pair landed when the listing ended. Sold a lot of Blackcat 3’s and at some point realized - Nike would only take down the fake colorways. The real colors almost always stayed up. I was a freshmen in college, sold a lot of shoes to the football team that yr

  I had to consult the Oracles (ai chatbots) to figure out the proper spell (prompt) to use in order to summon the demon (ebay customer service employee (actually quite nice)) to solve the issue Looks like everything will be resolved now. Let it be known that you CAN access a human on ebay customer support, if you're a powerful enough wizard

  an issue I don't see people talking about in this discourse is that bootlegs are so hated because they usually try to pass themselves off as official. go onto amazon or ebay and look for a figure, and theres a hundred listings of bootlegs which aren't listed as such

  @BIGBetts1999 @CardPurchaser @eBay I had this issue with them and argued what they are really saying is the are subjectively “grading” the condition of cards rather than confirming authenticity. They disagreed and nothing came of it. Sent the card to PSA and it got a 9 which, to me, confirmed eBay was completely in the wrong and it cost me $400.00 in the difference between sales. Now, I keep all cards possible under authentication as they have no transparency or objective evaluation process.

  A2A tips (discontinued product edition): 1. Set alerts (FlipAlert, Keepa, etc.) on all discontinued products. You never know when Amazon will find a box in the back of their warehouse 2. Don’t buy deep right away just because you found out it was discontinued. Check how much total inventory is floating around at Amazon and other retailers first. I’ve made the mistake of jumping in way too early and tying up cash flow for months 3. For health & beauty items, put in a small order to check expiration dates before committing capital. It tells you how much time you have to sell through before you’re stuck holding expired product 4. If you have a buy and hold that has an order quantity limit, you can order 27 per week to keep stacking 5. Products going in and out of stock is a sign a product can be discontinued, especially if it can’t be found at any other major retailers. If these two line up, I like to reach out to the brand to confirm 6. If you can’t find the product on the brand’s own website, it’s a good sign it’s discontinued. Not guaranteed since some brands are just slow to update or reorganizing their site but it’s a good first check before digging further 7. Set alerts for third party sellers too. Sometimes a 3P seller doesn’t realize a product is discontinued or lists it lower by mistake and you can flip it back on eBay 8. Put your top items in the saved for later list. Sometimes you can catch Amazon in stock before monitors and alerts go off 9. Check if the discontinued product has a replacement or reformulation. If people still want the original over the new version, that opens up opportunity. If there’s no replacement at all, even better 10. Discontinued isn't always permanent. Brands can bring products back with new packaging, size changes, or just changing their minds. Always verify but don't assume discontinued always means gone forever

  @VHSDVDBLURAY4K Oh you are solving a nonexistent problem . They’ll just sell in another way in the future that doesn’t reveal the seat up front / just indicate the row or sell locally whichever . Getting a tiny % of scalping bounced off eBay isn’t doing anything .

  Hundreds of thousands of items on eBay show massively overpriced shipping, and their sellers don't even realize -- can you please fix this, @ebay? This is entirely within your power to fix. You are only hurting eBay by not fixing it, because I guarantee you these items are NOT selling, and the sellers don't even see the problem unless buyers tell them about it. And don't blame sellers -- they are simply accepting your default option.

  Every ******* time. I swear Facebook Marketplace needs a special button somewhere between "Message Seller" and "Is This Available?" that simply says: "This has absolutely ****-all to do with me, so I'll keep scrolling." Apparently, however, that level of self-control remains beyond a surprisingly large percentage of the population. I'm currently selling several tactical backpacks, operator attachés and patrol bags. They are brand new, most are still in the original packaging with the tags attached, and I'm selling them for less than their normal retail price. Some of them I originally acquired through BOGO promotions. Others I bought individually. Enter Fucknuts McGinty, Marketplace Economic Correspondent and apparently self-appointed Guardian of Other People's Transactions: "You can get two of them for that price from their website." First of all... No, you ******* can't. The price I'm asking is about $40 LESS than what you'd currently pay for the equivalent purchase. But even if you could, allow me to introduce you to a revolutionary concept apparently absent from whatever remedial economics course you attended: A BOGO promotion does not mean the second item has no value. It means I bought one item at full retail price and received another item as part of the transaction. Now I own both. They're mine. I can keep them. I can give one to a friend. I can donate one to charity. I can fill one with ******* jellybeans and bury it in the garden as a time capsule. Or... And stay with me here because this is where **** gets complicated... I can sell it. What I paid for an item has absolutely ****-all to do with what that item is worth to somebody else. If I buy something for $100 and the store gives me another one as part of a promotion, that does not magically require me to give the second one away. I'm offering someone the opportunity to buy a brand-new item for less than the normal retail price without having to spend the additional money required to qualify for whatever promotion happened to exist when I bought it. Buyer saves money. I recover some money. Everybody involved in the transaction benefits. Nobody is being deceived. Nobody is being ripped off. No laws are being broken. Capitalism continues functioning. The Earth remains in orbit. Civilization somehow survives another ******* day. Which brings me to the part I genuinely don't understand: Why ******** do some people feel compelled to complain about transactions they have absolutely no intention of participating in? Don't like my price? Don't buy it. Think you've found it cheaper somewhere else? Buy it there. Already own seventeen of the ******* things? Congratulations. Keep scrolling. There are literally thousands of other Marketplace listings available for you to look at. Yet somehow there is always that one miserable bastard who apparently cannot make it through his day without finding SOMETHING, somewhere, involving complete strangers, that he can ***** and whine about. The truly remarkable part is that my selling this bag has precisely ZERO effect on his life. I didn't knock on his door. I didn't empty his bank account. I didn't hold his dog hostage until he bought a tactical backpack. I posted an item for sale. That's it. Somebody wants it at my asking price, they buy it. Somebody doesn't want it at my asking price, they don't. This incredibly sophisticated economic system has successfully operated at yard sales, flea markets, gun shows, classified ads, eBay, Craigslist and Facebook Marketplace for ******* decades. Yet apparently we're still struggling with: "If you don't want the ******* thing, don't buy the ******* thing." There. I've just condensed several centuries of free-market economics into twelve words. You're ******* welcome.

  @FarandPaulJr I squashed the ends of the strap down to squeeze in, then noticed the quick release spring bar barrel length is 17.7mm. That won't fit. I've pulled the quick release spring bars out and ordered smaller ones on eBay. I've left the straps in the watch without spring bars.

  @ebay is a fraud ridden scam marketplace. I've had enough. Understand that eBay has zero incentive to correct fraud, they profit from it. This is a caution, intended for anyone that needs to be disabused of the notion that the eBay platform offers either party in a transaction security assurances. They don't. They will continue defrauding their users until it becomes unprofitable, and not before. Whether you intend to buy, or become a seller, you will be ripped off, finding out once it's too late that the promises, the commitments eBay claims to have toward being a safe and fair marketplace, are garbage. The check cleared, they got theirs, you lose. Stay away from eBay, if you value your sanity, and your wallet. It's a broken company run by dysfunctional, sick people. Avoid eBay at all cost.
