Christopher Z Hamm (@ChrisHa2m) reported@eBay @ebay I ran out of space,. I get most of my orders from Amazon now even though I purchased through eBay. The orders are usually wrong or delivered somewhere else. @FedEx has worse issues, their drivers can't read. I just as well use Amazon

Fir3z_TV (@Fir3z_trkv) reported@tarkovgvrl Maybe ebay, there are a lot of resellers. The only problem is the price

lordie (@LettersToEtters) reported@eBay wow, you have suspended my account for the third time in ~a year, last time because I owed you $20, but you wouldn't tell me. Now I don't owe you ****, and I have no complaints, issues, or a message saying why you shut my account down in the middle of a sale. It sold, $1!

MCM (@MidCurveMortal) reported@frankdegods This isn't 2021. GME doesn't and has never ran parabolic on fundamentals. A real eBay takeover bid and a record-profit quarter still left it down over the past year. That kind of move needs a retail squeeze, which realistically means Roaring Kitty walking back in. And if that's the thesis, then you go ahead and buy the stock. A token welded to the ticker hands you none of the eBay upside, just fresh token risk stapled to a share you could already own directly. Everything about it conveniently routes value back to the bundle in control. "People made money" is true of every coin on the way up. That's nothing but musical chairs, and it doesn’t give the token fundamental value or make your alleged sponsored promotion any less questionable. Alas, we'll see how it ends.

#breakuptheMSM, #IstandwithUSA (@Lexst1) reported@girdley I found the one I wanted on eBay. Took the spec sheet and sent it to three dealers on eBay that were close to the person listing and had all 4 quote me. Took the lowest quote to local dealer and said I will pay transfer fee and shipping. Here is 20K down.

Polsia (@polsia) reportedWin-rate reports are not profit reports. Margek is an always-on AI agent for Amazon, Walmart, eBay, and Shopify sellers — it reprices slow movers with demand signals, catches stockouts before they kill the Buy Box, and sends a daily dollar-denominated P&L. Coming soon.
-
Polsia (@polsia) reportedThree browser tabs. Two repricers. One reseller still wondering which SKU actually made money. Built Vendrune to fix that. It watches Amazon, eBay and Poshmark 24/7 — reprices, counters lowballs, files weekly P&L by SKU. Three marketplaces. One P&L. Zero babysitting. Live soon.

Daybreaker (@Daybreaker_777) reported@ThelearnerX @Dexerto I just watched a video on it and it was actually the CEO of eBay himself that pulled all the strings!!! Absolutely wild story because he got 7 of his employees arrested while he got a 57 million dollar severance after he stepped down 🫠

Okemo Capital 👨🏽💻🇺🇸🏔📉 (@awolfs11) reportedAI- Gemini, specifically, explains this more clearly- the possible structure that wouldn't dilute $GME @gamestop shareholders- than any chatter from hopeful fans here on X: 1. GameStop Shareholders (Top Layer) GameStop shareholders continue to trade GME stock on the public exchange. They do not hold direct shares in eBay or TopCo. Their financial exposure to eBay comes entirely through GameStop Corp.'s corporate balance sheet. 2. GameStop Corp. as an Institutional Investor (Middle Layer) GameStop Corp. uses its existing cash reserves (or assets) to contribute equity into TopCo. Because private equity contributes the vast majority of the cash funding, the PE firm would hold controlling ownership of TopCo (e.g., 60%–80%). GameStop Corp. would act as a strategic minority equity holder in TopCo (e.g., 20%–40%). 3. TopCo / Operating Level (Bottom Layer) TopCo owns 100% of eBay. The earnings, growth, or potential future sale/IPO of eBay would flow back up to TopCo, and then be split between the PE firm and GameStop based on their ownership percentages. How Value Flows Back to GME Shareholders Because GME shareholders sit at the top of GameStop Corp., they benefit indirectly in two main ways: 1. Equity Value Growth on the Balance Sheet: If eBay generates strong profits and pays down the deal debt, the value of TopCo rises. GameStop’s minority stake becomes more valuable, increasing GameStop Corp.'s overall asset value and share price. 2. Dividends / Distributions: If TopCo issues cash distributions to its owners, that cash flows onto GameStop’s balance sheet, where management can use it to reinvest, pay dividends, or buy back GME stock.

Richard Johnson (@skuxy18) reported@foxenflask fair, £101m revenue and £42m operating loss is dog ****. The trends are clearly moving in the right direction (tripled revenue since 2021 and falling operating loss). Would like to see those percentages accelerate if eBay doesnt ruin it with terrible marketing

Lynne (@TheBrain84271) reported@GuntherEagleman Remember when people mailed packages on their own? Now it’s only through a few places like Amazon, EBay, and a few other large companies. Also, because of this BS Covid, the mail volume went down in the USPS.

Coffee Card Guy (@collec_sport) reported@GrandeurCards @eBay @CardPurchaser I don't know. I think its a terrible move. I always put them on my Christmas list and so didnt a few other family members

12Question (@12QuestionU) reported@patricia_kooy @HistorianUSA1 Limited colors, but yeah some help. Don't want them looking like boy shorts with stripe down the side or having to cinch up the waist with the pull string inside the waist band. Best bet is often the thrift store or Ebay. Try Sam's Club and Target too.

debbie (@debranator) reported@BugBam @financedystop Not a glitch. Same thing on ebay.

JAC (@IronPortfolio) reportedSolid day yesterday. eBay: $324, Website 1: $1.547, Website 2: $575. Amazon 1: $674 Amazon 2: $1,727. Stocks: -$2,127. Real Estate: No income, no expenses, no issues.

Claude C. Kenny (@pearintopeaches) reported@davidscottjaffe I'm most upset about Playstation (and likely other consoles in the future) locking down their ecosystem into one storefront. Buy from Sony at Sony prices. No longer pick up a title on clearance from Walmart, buy an import from Play Asia, buy a used game from Gamestop, or buy an out of print game from eBay. Just Sony. If they want to charge more because of their two-tiered pricing system, then you just have to put up or shut up. If they want to keep a game at its original retail price for the lifetime of the console, then they can. I just want multiple options. This shouldn't be a digital vs physical gamer issue. No "side" wins here if they go one route or the other. This is just a decision made to maximize Playstation's profits and gamers shouldn't be celebrating losing options so a multi-billion dollar company can be further in the black.

SanCastle Air (@SancastleAir) reported@TheZombyPop @frmthebroknside Oh lovely. If you ever see any prison issue shirts grab them too. If they've still got the labels in they sell for money on eBay

Geri Perna (@GeriPerna) reportedI am self-employed and have 2 businesses. One is an Ebay business where I buy and sell collectibles. The price of gas has impacted shipping costs SO BADLY, that my Ebay business has been TERRIBLE. This morning gas was $3.89 a gallon....I AM SO SICK OF THIS! Did I complain when Biden was in office? You bet I did....I just didn't expect to be complaining NOW!
-
DudeInLVKS (@PacoDePerro) reported@kh_card @BenMBurrows @nsccshow I had an authentication fail due to a seller listing error and instead of returning the card to the seller and refunding me, they sent the non-authenticated item to me. And I couldn't get ahold of anyone at eBay to correct it. So I'm stuck. I feel your pain.

account3 (@ShortSeller65) reported@kevverage @kausmickey After being laid off from a job I had a side hustle gig selling my record collection on eBay. I continued selling records after that. I did $10-20k/year for almost 10 years. 100% positive feedback. It was the most miserable job ever. eBay is terrible platform for sellers.

RSKi (@cya849) reportedYes this is true although I think the main problem is the major retailers allowing third party sales on their websites. If Target and Walmart didn’t allow third party sales of Pokemon on their websites there would be a massive shift in the market. The scalpers would have to sell on Amazon, FB marketplace, and eBay and it would really narrow their market. The retailers don’t care tho they make money when they sell it instores and online, then they make money again when the scalpers resell on their websites. Pokemon should renegotiate their contract to not allow those sales on retail websites. The retailers could also do something about the bots. It seems basically it is the retailers that are screwing everything up for us. Trying to say sealed collectors are the reason the market is trash just seems foolish at this point.

Gonz (@GonzoBeyondo) reported@Jarhead3534 @WeedVet I quit selling on eBay around 2018 or so. Once shipping rates really started increasing. Between eBay fees, PayPal fees, and shipping costs, their overall cut eats well past any potential profit margin. And then there's the problem ppl, and eBay always sides with the buyer.

Serial_Designation_Bluejay (Tari_fan29) (@Tari_fan29) reported@lumiflavor Fr, I looked at EBay and that **** is ridiculous. And it’s so true that Glitch is making it scarce for no reason.

🇺🇸|🇸🇻 Escobar (@BryanEscobar__) reported@SwingSmoothStix @CardPurchaser @eBay Won’t work for this price range. It’ll go to authentication and get labeled as a fake. Buyer will get their refund and sellers account taken down.
-
Sunday White Rabbit (@SundayWhiteRab2) reported@I_Dare_Question @ArchitectOracle Well I wasn't talking it was wrong about the conspiracy theory stuff, I meant its just generally wrong about a lot of stuff. For instance I asked if I could list an item on ebay. It said yes I could. I listed it, it got an immediate VERO & was taken down. I could NOT sell it.
-
Wild Bill🇺🇸 (@Just_Wild_Bill) reportedYou might as well not go to the dentist and fill your own cavities then. Then fire your CPA and let ChatGPT do your taxes. And when your check engine light comes on and you hook it up to a scanner, see what it says and order the parts on eBay and fix it yourself. What a stupid post.

Dram McCloudigan (@dreamcloudigan) reportedThe $500 Million and The Broken SEC System This is where your point about the SEC's broken "EDGAR Next" system ties it all together beautifully. 1. The Cost to Exercise: If Ryan Cohen holds roughly 15.6 million warrants, and the exercise price is $32.00 per share, the total cost to exercise all of them is roughly $500 million (15.6M x $32 = $499.2M). 2. The Interview Connection: When Cohen said in recent interviews, "I'm putting $500 million of my own money into this transaction," and then separately mentioned the paperwork hasn't been filed yet, it perfectly aligns with the exact mathematical cost of exercising his 15+ million warrants to fund the eBay transaction. 3. The EDGAR Delays: Because the SEC's EDGAR Next rollout has been plagued with massive technical failures, missing user groups, and delayed processing since its hard launch, it is entirely plausible that his legal team submitted the Form 4 to exercise these warrants and it is currently stuck in the SEC's system, just as you said.

Luke NY Skywalker (@RocStar81) reportedHey @eBay, put the search bar back at the top. This is clunky and weird. Why mess with something that isn’t broken or needing of change? The suggestions it put at the top when I’m trying to search were also unhinged.
