    @eBay Customer service is so poor! I sent more than 3 emails/ feedback and received no response! Plus Automated auto isn’t adding any value to customers!! It is not connecting me to an agent to describe my issue! My item bought since February and hasn’t arrived until date!

    Just watched Whatever It Takes: Inside the eBay Scandal. It’s crazy. And it’s not. Most people outside of enterprises assume people inside enterprises operate with their values. The truth is that many leaders values are simply to “advance by any means necessary”. The part that did surprise me was how this Director was able to fire everyone and replace all empty chairs with an army of Fembots without legal or any executive raising an issue. @ValueAddedRS

    @Yoshegame >whining Don't be that guy. Just don't. It's not "whining", and you're being bad-faith by suggesting it is. If they're not going to give people an off-ramp and keep the bridge open without having to connect online, then they have no reason not to keep the service going when a full account with 3,000 Pokemon is barely 1 megabyte and 1 million full accounts is still not 100% of 1 terabyte, because a Pokemon is only about 300 bytes. They have no excuse when I can use a single $30 SSD and some flash drives in RAID for backups on an e-waste PC I got on eBay to store MILLIONS of Pokemon for pennies of electricity while they have BILLIONS for an operating budget. The rounding error to keep the service up won't hurt them any when a trip to Walmart is all it takes.

    I bought a card from eBay from comc I have got about 25 alerts to pay now, normally not a problem. However I’m watching a card that ends tomorrow and want to combine shipping . I have never got that many alerts from a purchase for any other card to pay right away like that it’s crazy I got two alerts in under 4 mins also why can comc charge $5 for pwe shipping

    @ShaqMaadWolf If they do a larger print, the “value” of the art goes way down in their eyes meaning that the idea of exclusivity doesn’t matter. That’s the way I see it, and I still think it’s a dogshit view when ppl on ebay are throwing up 12 copies for 800 dollars lmfao

    @ScottyUncle I’m torn, Unc! The listing was final sale, no returns. Accurately described and I know it will pass eBay authentication no problem. I just don’t want the headache of them siding with the buyer somehow after the fact.

    @nonexpertt @realPhantomFuck @benwegmann Of course selling third party will net more than trade in. And yes it is legit, but I've had 2 sales 1 purchase on swappa. The purchas the phone was stuck bootlooping and one of the sales the customer complained about dust around the lens (something easily cleaned with a Qtip and I didn't notice it) which allowed him to send it back and cost me $60 in fees/ship. Meanwhile sold 3,000 items on ebay with only 10 or so issues. I personally would recommend selling on eBay but go where your net is highest.

    @madskilz15 @CardPurchaser There are quite a few listings like this on eBay. eBay said there isn’t anything they can do & there’s no “authenticity” for packs. Once you purchase/open, & if seller doesn’t have returns turned on, nothing you can do aside from leaving bad feedback (then they’ll shut acct down)

    @goddammitsarah Enjoy it! I just curated a set of Lenox China for myself on eBay and the common thread was that it all was passed down from a grandma or mom. Every 60 year old piece had been saved for events that never were. I told one woman her mom would be happy!

    I would love to hear any coherent explanation of what tf @ryancohen is doing. I am literally down to two explanations. He’s either a hedgie. Or he’s setting up for MOASS. Nothing else makes sense. Let’s raise convertible notes to buy a bunch of $BTC! Just kidding let’s wait as long as possible and then only buy a tiny bit at all time highs. Okay well, then let’s use it to buy a company 84 times the size of ours, that’s also at all time highs! We can exchange our convertible notes now to clean up the balance sheet so we can buy $EBAY! Well let’s not really buy @eBay, but for sure let’s dilute our company to the maximum for seemingly no reason at all. Every one of these things brings extensive short pressure to our beloved stock. You would have to be so beyond regarded to not know that’s what was going to happen. Yet he still for some reason created dividend warrants, which also bring on their own arbitrage pressure. You see the problem? Why would someone who wanted to reward shareholders do all these things that clearly prevented that. He’s surely knew every single thing he was going to do this past year and if you don’t think that, you should stop eating crayons. He’s a hedgie. Or MOASS is coming. I do not see an alternative explanation. Because if it’s not MOASS, then he is full regard, or worse, and someone should take the controller out of his hands.

    @CopiaFanart That’s utterly horrible! Ebay is (at least in my experience years ago), really good with refunds for scams. Hopefully they take down the ad/scammer account as well.

    @staypredictable As an eBay shareholder that bought more than their entire board combined, I am pissed that the board isn’t allowing GameStop to take over and provide value! Just like Netflix, I am now down on my investment over completely irrational decision-making by these people.

    I am the Director of Retroactive Attribution at Phia, the shopping app Phoebe Gates co-founded. My job did not exist in June. It exists now because someone has to go back and figure out, after the fact, who actually gets credit for what. Attribution was always the word. I did not invent it. I inherited it. Here is what I inherited. A setting called enable coupon auto drop, switched ON on December 10, switched OFF on July 7, the same day a reporter called. Nobody builds an off switch for an accident. A second feature ran in the background every two hours, dropping a cookie on any site linked to a past Phia visit, whether you were shopping or not. Here is what that bought us. A retailer only owes a commission to whoever actually sent the customer. We stopped waiting to find out who that was. The cookie went down regardless, sometimes on top of somebody else's, so the retailer paid us for a sale we did not cause, and whoever did cause it got nothing. On December 18, Gates asked developers to confirm the auto-drop was live on every site with a coupon, so the company could be sure it was monetizing on all sales, regardless. It gets better. When a colleague warned that dropping a cookie every time a user closed a Phia pop-up would violate Chrome's own rules, a cover story was proposed instead of a fix: "the user is trying to open us and roll it back if they complain." In July, when a reporter called, the company said it had learned "within the last 24 hours" that its own code was causing the problem. I have both dates in front of me. I am not going to do the subtraction for you. Before July 7, we were bringing in roughly $80,000 a day. After, $10,000 to $28,000. An internal estimate put 51% of what we billed advertisers in June on transactions we did not actually influence. We are disputing the methodology on that number. We are not disputing the toggle. An attorney posted that this is the kind of thing that gets treated as federal wire fraud, up to 20 years. Nobody has been charged with anything. The last two men who did something like this to eBay got 5 months and 15 months, on $28 million and $5.2 million. Nobody in the actual precedent got 20 years. Nobody in this one has been charged with a single day. In February, before any of this, Gates told a podcast she wanted Phia to succeed with "no ties to my privilege or my last name." The revenue chart doesn't say whose name earned it. It just says whose name got the credit. Going forward, my job is to make sure every transaction gets attributed to the party that actually earned it. That's attribution. It was the crime. Now it's my title. The app still says Never Overpay Again. I have not found a beginning yet, only the days somebody decided not to say anything.

    @4Miathebrave If you are going to purchase physical copies, I suggest the nitro store! You can find the copy you want to purchase, give the link, title and price to a proxy or middleman who will purchase it, store it until you pay for shipping and then send it to you! Or, you could obtain a Japanese address for free with a packaging forwarding service, make a nitro store account yourself, pay yourself, and then have it forward to you with no middleman required! There is also j-list, based in America, that sells the offical english versions of the games! It’s all in eng, is easy to navigate, and is domestic for you, so no proxy required. eBay is full of resellers and scalpers who buy up all the stock, and resell it for higher prices. If you have issues with limited stock always being sold out, please do not support or buy from the scalpers and resellers on eBay, as that will just make the issue worse. Good luck!
