  @vvvvioll And then returned to the seller. When I tried to contact them, I found that their eBay account was entirely gone. $80 USD down the drain… I did end up getting them from Best Buy a few years later though!

  @Jbm_dev Because listing industrial electronic items on eBay through eBays app takes to long especially when all the details of the items matter and typing them allows for too much human error. I built a Ebay listing agent that allows you to just take multiple pictures of the item especially the name plate, then it drafts the Ebay listing while you are off taking the next set of photos. Not to mention it sets a price based off of eBay sales as well as historical data and google data. At the end of the day you have a big list of drafts to review to ensure accuracy and then you do a bulk listing push to Ebay live. I've reduced the time to list one item from 8 minutes down to less than 1 minute.

  $gme I think scam Street has all this arranged. Push down the price of GME and push up the price of eBay to 125 where they can say to shareholders see, look you don’t need a buyout. The stock price is high right now. ceo should sell the 5 percent and make 2 billion

  GameStop CEO Ryan Cohen Pushes Forward After eBay Rejects $56 Billion Bid eBay's board turned down GameStop's unsolicited $56 billion offer, citing doubts over financing, valuation, and merger risks, despite the bid's 46% premium over eBay's February price. Cohen, who holds a 5% stake through shares and derivatives, highlighted GameStop's shift from big losses to $130 million quarterly profits since he took over in 2023, backed by nearly $9 billion in cash and a confident debt letter. Retail investors cheered Cohen on, while he eyes synergies like using GameStop's 1,600 stores for eBay's collectibles and hints at rallying eBay's owners next. $EBAY $GME

  @Gammitin A bit like eBay sellers offering a TV set they bought for 10.000 DEM in 1995 because it was one of the first and largest 16:9 HD sets - and wonder why no one places a starting bid of 160 EUR and wants to carry a 60 kg piece of trash down five storeys in a house without a lift.

  @ValueAddedRS FBA has essentially failed for the original vision Amazon had any they subsidized it massively for years. If they can’t make it work I don’t think anyone else can. I say it failed because FBA is now a terrible deal and hassle for small sellers or small quantities, they are getting pushed off the platform. Now FBA I’m sure is very profitable and strategic still for Amazon but it’s a different very narrow focus, at huge scale. ebay-type inventory just didn’t work there

  @InningOne @larryvc @ChungusInvestor It seems you’re having trouble understanding how GameStop’s pending acquisition of eBay would work as proposed. You should have a look at Paramount/Warner Brothers to see how a smaller cap company can acquire a much larger market cap company. The cases are not dissimilar.

  @alt_w_v_g EBay is a dumpster fire. They openly let buyers scam sellers by letting them say they didn’t receive an item and automatically reimburse the buyer from the sellers account. I shut it down a few years ago now. Scammers everywhere

  @alphafox @jo42993661 I started using @mercari_app in 2018. It's better and safer than eBay still, but I have slowly watched it turn and head down the same path. Fees rising, required promotions etc. I'm expecting by 2030 it will be just like eBay.

  @alt_w_v_g I think @ebay is a giant bore. Once a year I buy a vintage computer there that's about all that's left. And you can't call or talk to anyone if you have a problem it _feels_ like a scam.

  @bkj_brad @yanxchick The fake card problem is honestly why I'm skeptical of eBay for anything graded. Between fake PSA certs and people pulling bait-and-switch on auctions, it's playing roulette with your money. Sellers eat 15% fees and still get burned by buyers sending empty boxes back.

  @alt_w_v_g Just my 2 Cents, but a big problem plaguing eBay right now is sellers who drop ship items from Amazon. Any seller that does this, I give them a neutral review. At one time, I went out of my way NOT to buy from Amazon, and it pi$$ed me off!

  funny story, bluebird SRs ran a distributor instead of a coil pack, and the one on my donor engine was dead. in 2005 i posted on craigslist, and tracked down a spare ECU in Everett, WA from a 70 year old man who collected 240sx's. he was a millionaire from selling old farmland he bought in the 1950s, and for fun he built a barn with two working lifts just to restore S13 240sx's to showroom condition with all OEM parts. he had probably 10+ in various states that once finished he'd just sell to random people. he had a separate barn with a hidden sliding door with a room full of spare parts he collected off ebay. i spent a day with him driving back and forth between his farms to try and find the part. ive always wondered what happened to him, and regretted not staying in touch. pic of the beat up dodge colt he drove.

  Commodore International Historical Society (@commodoreihs) reported 48 minutes ago

  I snagged this Commodore 620 off eBay recently because it was an interesting piece. First, I have to thank my friend Steve Gray for providing background information to me on CBM-II model numbers, because I manage to screw them up every time. The Commodore 620 was the European market version of the North American B256. It's the low profile CBM-II model with 256K RAM. This one, despite being the European model 620, seems to have been modified for the North American market, as the PSU was converted to 117VAC. You can see on the serial sticker that there's a 117V sticker on top of the original serial sticker. Given that it's the same color and style, I'm guessing Commodore modified this, not a consumer. It's serial 00031, which is a low serial, but the chip date codes range from 2182 to 2983 (May 1982 - July 1983). It's in generally working condition, and it boots to the native boot screen saying, "commodore basic 256, v4.2". I have a line on a replacement keyboard, so the missing keys won't be a problem.

  @TimothyGre12262 Yeah, I get on eBay and sometimes can’t resist, couple weeks ago I bid way more than I should on a Gibson SG and was hoping someone would outbid me and they did. But this one wasn’t too bad and I wanted a vintage broken in guitar and I never tried a telecaster before. Now I see why they’re so popular, it sounds so good and it never seems to go out of tune.
