  @torquespeak @eBay The eBay product for selling mainstream used cars could be compelling with a few small changes. Instead, a ‘win’ rarely seems to mean a sale. ‘Car sold - let’s see if the buyer collects’. It a terrible place for sellers, all to the benefit of CC, albeit a different market

  @tercio_miranda unfortunately, the card was sold on eBay with bulging capacitors and the board is so dense that I couldn’t recap it without a de soldering station. And the fan was blown. The listing said that it was tested and in perfect condition, but the pics were a little blurry so you couldn’t tell that the capacitors were blown. And when I got out the fan didn't work. I had to send it out to get it recapped and chase down a PCI express xfx 7800 with the same fan because those are still cheap. The annoying part is that right after I bought this another person listed an identical card for maybe four or five times as much and since that point everyone I’ve seen trying to sell one in better condition would not accept an offer closer to what I paid for mine. But since I had to have this specific one to match my hair and the Nvidia stacker 830, I’ve just been determined to figure out a way to get it working. I saw a new in box agp 6800 xt on Facebook marketplace for $25 and while I was on the way, it got sold out from under me driving from the valley to in town.

  @poop_booger I don’t use the eBay envelopes. I ship with my own bubble mailers or if it’s an expensive card I use one of PSA’s boxes. I’ve read about a lot of problems with the eBay envelopes.

  @blackcatscards It’s not a public marketplace if two people are discussing price negotiation Really the card show/stack sale convention would be to extend it to the person negotiating with them having right of first refusal It isn’t crystalline, because the tech sucks (FL and WN definitely, I think eBay live too) to where payment can still be processed. Best thing you can do is arbitrate as if tech weren’t an issue, and that’d be to extend to intended buyer first

  @whypickname @foursyYT Lego has no problem forcing people who sell legit goods on eBay or Amazon to pull down their listings or risk being sued yet they say nothing about a retail org they clearly sell to who thinks it's ok not to reimburse an old man for a legit consignment.

  @Tom_Rowsell A household member sold a tech part for a PC on Ebay and the buyer was local. They came to do pay on collection instead of us post it, and a black BMW filled with Africans came round. No reason for all the squad to accompany but it went without issue. Whites drop round alone.

  He spent $400 on 12 broken phones and turned them into a machine that prints money while he sleeps. not a metaphor. a literal shelf of cracked Pixel 2s earning him cash 24/7. here is the whole build. he buys dead Android phones in bulk off eBay. cracked screens, trashed batteries, dead speakers. the more broken, the cheaper. $350 for twelve. $50 more for chargers and a hub. that is the entire startup cost. then he loads each one with apps that pay you to do nothing. apps that pay you to swipe up when an ad plays on the lock screen. apps that pay you just to sit there collecting data in the background. apps that pay you to run games passively. every phone gets its own Google account. its own phone number for verification, rented for a dollar. then they just run. on a shelf. all day, every day. 36 cents a day per phone. twelve phones. $129 a month from a pile of e-waste he plugged into a wall. the farm pays for itself in four months. everything after that is pure profit, and he just keeps stacking phones. people are out here trading 8 hours a day for a paycheck while one guy built a system that earns whether he is awake or not. that is the whole shift happening right now. the people winning are not working harder. they are wiring up systems that run without them. that is exactly the kind of build people are tearing apart inside @NeuroClubAi. not watching demos. learning to actually wire the machine and let it run. stop trading your hours for money. start building the thing that earns while you sleep.

  @MichaelTLoPiano I think we are in a very interesting time right now if GameStop is doing what I THINK they are doing. Using mechanical downward pressure from Ebay arb traders to help keep the price down while they buy and essentially have $32 call options (warrants) that they can collect if/when price gets there. If they end up erasing ~90M shares, I can't imagine it NOT.

  Reseller Rowe (@resellerrowe) reported 31 minutes ago

  Want to really change your life? Here’s what I did I accepted responsibility for my results. Not the economy. Not eBay. Not Facebook Marketplace. Not the auction company. Not bad luck. Me. When sales were slow, I looked in the mirror. When inventory wasn’t moving, I looked in the mirror. When I wasn’t making enough money, I looked in the mirror. It was the best lesson I’ve ever learned.

  I never thought I’d write this. After five long years, I have liquidated my entire $GME position. Not because I stopped believing in what this community once stood for. Not because the early thesis didn’t expose real problems. Not because the movement didn’t matter. It did. For a while, it felt like we were part of something bigger than a stock. It felt like regular people found each other in the middle of a rigged game and decided to stand together. There was hope. There was fire. There was conviction. But five years is a long time to keep waiting for a tomorrow that never comes. @TheRoaringKitty isn’t coming back to save this. @RyanCohen isn’t buying @eBay. There is no grand reveal. No secret countdown. No hidden master plan that magically fixes everything. At some point, belief becomes exhaustion. Conviction becomes identity. A community that once felt powerful starts to feel toxic, defensive, and trapped inside its own mythology. I held longer than I probably should have. I ignored doubts. I defended the company. I defended the silence. I defended the possibility that maybe, somehow, there was still something coming. But I can’t keep pretending. This feels less like a revolution now and more like another Bed Bath & Beyond situation. A story where people kept finding reasons to believe right up until the end. I hope I’m wrong. I really do. I hope everyone still holding gets the outcome they deserve. I hope something happens that proves all of this doubt was premature. I hope the people who gave years of their lives, money, energy, and emotion to this company are rewarded. But for me, this chapter is over. Rest in peace to the version of $GME we all thought we were investing in. It was beautiful once. Maybe that’s what made it so hard to let go.

  @Chicken__Head Nothing against GME - I truly want to see Cohen take over eBay and believe he will do whatever necessary to get that done. And I'd love to see it. I sold on May 1 into the evening run up because 1) it presented a great profit opportunity for my $20ish cost basis and 2) the rumor of acquiring EBAY was likely to drop GME's price. It is a pretty normal dynamic in takeovers that the target price goes up, acquirer goes down. Finally, 3) it was not the 'buy a cheap cash-flowing business at a discount in a market crash' use of cash I had envisioned. Instead it is a "buy an expensive company at a premium while taking on an enormous amount of leverage and creating enormous execution risk." I think most $GME social mediua accounts sidestep, minimize or ignore the risk-side of the offer, which is par for the course for social media and why everyone acts confused why the price is coming down despite a great quarterly result. None of this means I will avoid re-buying $GME. It just means I am waiting for a good price (in my judgement) to minimize my risk and I figured it would come back down to close to $20 - we are almost there. Take profits, wait, re-buy. My normal M.O.

  @jameshalldon I am all for it. I checked that every night Eight Sleep uploads over 1GB of data. Thats a lot that it generates so somehow exporting that and saving + doing analysis on it would be pretty cool. But the Whoop project was more successful because you can buy Whoops from Ebay for 50$ and use it with this OSS. Eight Sleep is not that. Someone who actually buys one is heavily invested and paying that annual subscription without any issues.

  @UnpluggedRetro oof is that CAD? $80 isn’t super terrible if it’s like the crispiest copy ever but if it’s been sitting there a while I’d try talking them down a bit. unfortunately $40-$50 US seems to be the going rate these days. idk if the guy was in a particularly good mood or something but he was nice enough to let me talk him down to $30! always worth politely haggling if you’re comfortable with it. worst case they say no but I’ve had really great luck buying a few games at a time and asking for a 10% discount. that’s still less than whatever eBay fees are these days so most places are happy to make the deal.

  @eBay I bought a card literally in April. The seller never shipped the item, I’m still waiting on my money to be refunded. It’s a “authenticity guarantee” and I got told I have to wait literally 45 days until the “delivered between date” ends. How does that make any sense? You can authenticate an item you never receive, so now I just have money sitting in limbo for 45 days and you guys can’t help me? By the way, your support on website isn’t very good. The app “help and contact” is terrible and constantly closes out the window.

  🚨 NEW: US-Iranian Tech CEO Arrested For Supplying Iran's Nuclear Program Jamshid Ghomi, the CEO of a Tehran-based technology firm, was arrested Wednesday for allegedly funneling sensitive American networking and security equipment directly to Iran’s military and nuclear facilities. Prosecutors claim he operated a massive money laundering network to bypass strict US sanctions and finance a lavish California lifestyle. His company, Faraz Pardaz Rayaneh, allegedly supplied critical equipment to Iran’s Atomic Energy Organization and the Ministry of Defense over an eight-year period. Ghomi laundered more than $15 million into American bank accounts and construction escrows, falsely reporting the illicit funds as a foreign inheritance. The 63-year-old executive utilized personal eBay and PayPal accounts to make over 400 purchases of computer networking equipment, routing the shipments through intermediaries in the United Arab Emirates. Federal prosecutors are now actively attempting to seize Ghomi’s massive $35 million mansion in Newport Beach, California, which was largely funded by foreign wire transfers. This high-profile arrest exposes severe vulnerabilities in global supply chains, revealing how hostile foreign programs can acquire restricted technology through basic e-commerce workarounds. It also marks a significant escalation in the ongoing enforcement of sweeping sanctions against Iran's manufacturing and defense sectors. Are current international export controls completely broken, or will massive asset seizures like this finally deter intermediary smuggling networks? Source: Justice Department

  @AtRealBen @CamoCat17 You know before they gave a lobotomy to all of the chat bots I was learning all sorts of interesting things about the Talmud After learning about metzitzah bpeh I was specifically interested in what it had to say about blood I had been aware of the issues surrounding animal blood Well, there’s quite a lot more And what I’ve also noticed is since things I thought I had learned Well, now I’m getting different information and would feel very much like lectures designed to discourage certain lines of inquiry But when you add up things like metzitzah , or the protein fake meat is based on (Heme) or those thousands of ‘baseless’ “blood libel” accusations and paintings… Goy Well, it all starts to add up to something that I certainly wish wasn’t true and I certainly don’t think it’s an all of them situation, but I think it would be extremely naïve to pretend that we are not dealing with literal witches and vampires That’s what it is, and they’re using all of the different nation, states and religions and ideologies and schools of thought to essentially hide and perpetuate this I mean it’s evil but it’s also fascinating I’d prefer to be wrong, but I have absolutely no doubt that when it comes to vampires in witches that that’s exactly what this is I remember reading apart from the I call it mud book.. the t mud It literally said that consuming human blood was OK. It just advised to keep it secret for appearances sake. Of course, when I went to fact, check this, it seemed to be gone But I just went ahead and bought myself a full English translation from over 100 years ago on eBay and we’ll just read it myself and take screenshots as needed I still can’t fully believe metzitzah bpeh or even betakhot 6a are real I’m even more surprised if they don’t pretend that those are fake too as it seems like that’s what they’re doing But I don’t know, and I would prefer to be wrong as far as these type of things go And like I said before, I know it’s not an it’s all of them but rather it’s always them situation
