Gigadenza (@gigadenza1) reported@GameGPU_com Another brutally illustrative example of how Enduser licence agreements for any form of consumer grade entertainment are effectively contacts between the customer and provider enabling the former to “receive” their product upon the latter’s legally documented terms…which are unconditionally subject to change. In this instance the Purchase of any PS game on its original physical media, technically amounts to acquiring it for “an indefinite lease period”….which remains in effect for as long as the publisher is able, through “reasonable effort” and in “good faith,” to make it available. If a disc degrades to the point that its contents becomes “unplayable”, whether through routine wear & tear, mishandling, or accidental damage, then the user’s logical recourse is to request a replacement from the manufacturer, who will typically require proof of purchase before they issue one…hence in this instance, I guess we should garner reassurance from the fact that all “certified” owners will be able to continue downloading their games from Sony’s provisional “backup” archive without any handling fees…yet. Nonetheless, this shrewd “Executive” Decision is also a blatant effort to accelerate the inevitable demise of the “virtual and factual high street’s” financially injurious second hand market… As for the PS3/Vita closures, Sony evidently wishes to repossess all the “intellectual property” that gamers might otherwise have been able to grab off EBay, Amazon Marketplace or their nearest branch of Computer Exchange, thereby depriving the cooperate colossus of any “profit“. After a strategic delay, Sony will then almost certainly redistribute these titles on their later Consoles’ “subscription based” platforms….for the exclusive privilege of “premium members”. In an attempt to appease potential, this retrospective relaunch will probably coincide with the PS6’s release! Prices for “digital” versions of these games will be similar to those that “collectors and retro-rebels” would have paid for the vast majority of used and new discs from what is essentially a legacy catalogue, though the comparative mark-up is astronomical, due to server space within cloud based storage infrastructures costing a fraction of the material and operational expenses associated with mass “CD/BD-ROM” production.

SlabSquatch Sports Cards (@WaxMetrix) reported@skol4L @eBay I wonder what it will take to fix this. It's almost like they don't care.

🦈🐑🚂davidevans442-Undy 🏴🐑🇺🇦🐧 (@davidevans442) reported@not_airspeed Refuse to use them for anything I buy from eBay or elsewhere. Used to be Hermes, aka Herpes - just changed their name. Had stuff stolen and broken by them. No more.

Ijlal Aslam (@IjlalAslam) reportedHere’s a compiled list of notable NFT marketplaces that have shut down (or significantly wound down operations) in recent years, amid the post-2021/2022 boom decline in trading volumes. I’ve focused on well-known platforms with confirmed closures: Foundation (Ethereum-focused art marketplace) — Shut down in 2026 after a failed acquisition. Nifty Gateway (Gemini-backed, early pioneer) — Closed in early 2026. MakersPlace — Shut down amid declining activity (around 2025). KnownOrigin (acquired by eBay) — Wound down in 2024. Async Art — Closed in late 2023. X2Y2 — Shut down NFT operations around 2025. Cent — Halted in 2022 due to fraud issues. Rodeo — Shut down in early 2026. Kraken NFT — Closed in early 2025. Others like parts of Bybit NFT, Exchange Art (Solana), and Magic Eden (certain marketplaces) also wound down.

RickRoss504 (@RickRoss504) reported@Nortier Psa also controls the hobby market I find it very weird that as soon as they shut down all these service levels all of sudden every seller on eBay is selling every Psa card for 2x times or 3x times of comp prices I even saw some sellers have their slabs at 4x times of comps

Cards for Sale 😎 (@BasedCardGuy) reported@BayleySportCard @eBay On god, I’m so upset I have them reviewing my case over the next 24-48 hours so hopefully they fix it for me or I’m highly considering a new route for selling

Ania (@AniasFinds) reported@piece_of_scrap @eBay Last month was slow for me but July seems to be moving in the right direction 🙃

alex bud (@alex_budimir) reported@CardPurchaser First time I was victim to the refund because of a cheap buy. And my first negative review left. Bought on ebay for like 8 years with no problem before this.

𖤐 Ace 🜏 (Diavolo & Lucifer’s Husband) (@AceDisgrace404) reported@Elizabe13050542 eBay is just CRAZY overpriced now with resellers sadly. You can find BROKEN Lucifer merch going for 10x it’s original price

WCPW® (@Official_WCPW) reported@CardboardPicker They listed this "prototype" and it "sold" for $501. They listed it again and it "sold" for $300. They listed it a 3rd time, I called them out on it, they yanked down the listing once I exposed them. Ebay no longer allows winning bids to get out of paying. They got busted.

Airlim (@Mainstreamlive) reportedPutting things up on eBay that I don’t really want to but I need things. If I get the funds then I’ll take them down but for now let’s stick them on the old internets

zaki of #zakitwt (Im back! ×2) (@bacon4zaki) reportedEveryone, it's important to me that you all know NENE is ******* lying on her BLOODLINE this ***** sold her soul on ebay for 3000 dollars and didnt know how to get it taken down for 4 days

Feldspar (@greenjeopardy) reportedAgree. I’ve had issues with the eBay guaranteed shipping as well, turns out that the correct process is to refund immediately after the buyer says they didn’t get it and file a claim with a separate insurance company. If you don’t do eBay shipping labels you are out of luck even more. For me the authentication process for higher end cards and orderly process are worth the fees and frustration. Maybe I can find better luck on X but I’ve had a lot of bad/shady experiences off eBay. Unfortunately eBay has little incentive to help sellers either . Overall agree eBay should have better systems in place for these types of things. Feedback as well. Currently dealing with a negative feedback claiming failure to disclose holo scratches-listing has 14 close ups lol. I think it’s choose your pain unfortunately and I don’t see eBay doing anything more for sellers any time soon.

Niner808 (@Niner808) reported@WaxMetrix @eBay Same thing happened to me on a sealed Panini Honors card. They opened the factory seal and put the card in a sleeve and card saver. The card arrived sticking out but fortunately no damage. After complaining to eBay they refunded me $50 for the issue.
