    @oveRayster just check out the seller ratings before you buy! I’ve bought and sold a ton on there and only had an issue once but eBay refunded me in the end so it was alright

    @RJ74120113 why are you adding? If Ebay offer happens, won’t GME go down? I also have calls so honestly want to know.

    @wemby210 @CardPurchaser I’m going to be real here I dealt with two of these types of vendors at the last show I went. It was a Kelce score rookie that goes for about $20 on eBay. Two different vendors had them. We are in Missouri mind you. One had it stickered for $80, the other one for $60. Both got VERY standoffish when I brought up that I would buy it, but I’d average the last sales. This is a VERY liquid card with plenty of comps. “You can’t look at comps because they’re what happened in the past, not what’s happening now!” - one of the vendors, when I showed him several eBay sales of that day around $20. “Well I’m in it for $40!” - that’s not my problem. You’re going to willingly and knowingly sell a card you KNOW someone can get for 70% cheaper on eBay? How could you do that, consciously? What if a kid came by, huge fan of the chiefs and his parents buy him that card? His experience of the hobby being ripped off by some vendor? I don’t care what people say. Cards are assets. They appreciate and depreciate. They are fluid. They move with news, injuries, and market sentiment. These guys are old timers who will not last moving forward IN MY OPINION. If only there was a way to tie live data into card prices for vendors/dealers. I bet they’d make a lot more money, being able to capitalize on the swings they might not be aware of. Like if they were able to print a QR code off that represents the cards in the case and people could scan it and see live prices or prices that the dealer wants to set (if they want to mark it higher/lower than market value). Well it just so happens…

    @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.

    @2ray_degenemax @ahiychmpsm eBay is likely the least headache, but assume it will be opened by customs. If you have a bunch of trouble finding a good source I’ll happily hit a 7-11 and send you the whole line up, but private shipping is $$$ corporate is $, so eBay will probably be cheaper

    @Joshs_Cards8396 If you list the same cards in multiple places, like say you list them on eBay but also take them to a show to sell, if you sell a card don't wait to take it down. Make sure to check any platforms you sell on and take it out of your inventory immediately.

    @alphafox I pretty loyal to eBay. I’ve got all my computers, motorcycle parts, and any expensive electronic there. I’ve had a few issues selling… but selling things in general sucks.

    @MindandEmotion7 @ryancohen I sold a brand new Disney LoungeFly backpack on there about a month ago. I had bought it at a 40% discount and they weren’t making them anymore, so I thought I’d make a quick buck selling it on eBay. After eBay took out all the fees, I made a little over $4. It wasn’t even worth my gas to take it to the post office! I decided I wouldn’t go through the trouble again, but if RC makes some changes to make it more lucrative for sellers, I’d consider doing it again.

  • AddisonJK
    AwakeNotWoke (@AddisonJK) reported

    @Byerocm @KillaKreww Yes, but a fair offer would be at least 1/2 the value of a collectible. There’s a MASSIVE market for these cards, which means they’re fairly liquid. It’s not like it was something that would take up space in his retail shop. He could’ve instantly posted it to eBay and set a reserve at $2500+. He KNOWINGLY offered her less than 10% of the value of ONE card for the whole collection. Then acted like he’s doing her a favor and has sympathy after he thought her son died? Sir, if you don’t see the issue here, then you need to reexamine your moral compass

    Ok, this is a warning about @ebay Now they will lie to you in many ways. One of the most important ways is any way in which they will claim to empower you as a seller, but actually will punish you for being a problem. They have something called "defects" and they can't WAIT to

    @treesonstumps @alt_w_v_g You can do ok as a buyer on ebay. It's sellers that have a problem, and slowly this bleeds quality buyers. Only the diligent and the scammers are good at using ebay's tools to shop smart.

    @ColinGunn1960 Wow. Amazing that you have a copy. Someone is trying to sell that issue on EBay for £26. Good luck to ‘em. I still have my contributor’s copy. The editor was Ian McLachlan - my school teacher at the time!

    @userofintellect I'm pretty sure Cohen still plans to buy Ebay - he looked quite determined. BUT I also had a suspicion that was his secondary objective, the first being to have short make a mistake. And it looks like they made that mistake on Monday. $56 bn (!!!) market cap 'glitch' on BRK-B...

    Elvis (@Godstimelvis) reported

    @Dexerto The $1,800 eBay listing is an outlier for a super rare sealed copy, but the point stands, even a standard used copy is pushing $300+. The market is completely broken for international fans.

    @idealideas @maus97954 everyone so emotionally committed to ebay?(not saying you are)We supposed to be contrarians. Ryan's offer gave the green light for shorts to leverage up and double down shorting. But the share authorization is not for ebay, he tricked them. Hes launching Teddy from DK ,no Ebay.

    @eBay any way to check if there is an issue on a card sitting with an authenticator since 4/27?

    cryptobruh (@insidebus1ness) reported

    @GregIsKitty Maybe he knew eBay runs post acquisition rejection, then sell the shares for a tidy profit, release some big news from GME to pump stock just as eBay falls back down, rebuy shares with the previous monies plus the extra profit - lands at 15% ownership, eBay $98 + GME at $40

    @wildprichard A large book reseller on eBay. I've used the contact seller feature to let them know of the issue. I don't want to name-drop, as I've had similar issues before with various such resellers (including for copies of REC BCPs) and they are normally resolved amicably within days.

    @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.

    Idk.. I dont see how this goes bad for Gamestop in any way. I honestly dont. All eyes on Ebay. Ebay deal doesn't go through? - Cohen sells all shares purchased and sells his call portion of the pairs. - When he does, the price of Ebay decreases, and in doing so, shorts pile in. He rides this downslide and cashes in on the puts on the way down. - Gamestop collects BIG. - At this point Ebay would be even cheaper. And you could essentially do the exact same process over again with bigger exposure.. Ebay accepts the deal? - Ryan creates a money making, de-leveraging machine. - Debt will be paid off very quickly and the bloat cut almost instantly. - Net profit would skyrocket. Debt paid off quick. - Any "dilution" wouldnt be noticed by shareholders at all. It is truly win win. Price action only currently allows opportunities to those in a position to buy. Remember idk ****!

    Triangulation Fraud vs "Dropshipping" It's not uncommon for $EBAY buyers to receive orders "dropshipped" from Amazon, Walmart etc. There are many variations on the fraud, but generally: If it uses stolen credit card = crime No stolen cc = just terrible eBay buyer experience.
