  From 2019 onwards, $EBAY has a pretty impressive rap sheet: - 2019: Execs ordered a stalking campaign against blogger couple the Steiners. Sent live bugs, a pig mask, and a funeral wreath to their home. GPS tracked their car. CEO Wenig ("take her down") walked with $57M severance. Never charged. - 2022: 7 employees convicted. Ringleader Jim Baugh sentenced to 57 months in federal prison. - 2023: DOJ sues eBay for selling 343K emissions defeat devices and illegal pesticides. Potential $1.9B exposure. - 2024: eBay pays $3M criminal fine (statutory max) to DOJ for the stalking. Same month, pays $59M for facilitating illegal pill press sales. - 2026: Steiner civil suit ($466M punitive ask) settled, then collapsed. Trial set for Jan 2027. Multiple DOJ actions. 7 convictions. Billions in exposure. A decade of self-inflicted chaos. Utter waste of shareholder capital, while the business has failed to grow and the margins + stockholders’ equity is depleting by the quarter. Is this board and CEO really the best to run this iconic American brand?

  @harrrmy Let your standards down a little. Go with Zimbabwe dollars instead of USD. I think you can get a couple mil Zimbabwe for about $20 USD on eBay

  @eBay Your automated system is broken. Plus it can’t help me. I need to update my bank details and I don’t have information you are asking me for. The contact an agent function is unavailable.

  @blackvvidows @HankMcPym People buy these for parts. Once it officially releases check eBay. There’s tons of people who just strip them down to sell the parts individually

  🚨 4 OLD GTX 1080s FROM A DEAD MINING RIG NOW RUN LOCAL AI AND BEAT $400/MO IN SUBSCRIPTIONS 💀 Same cards. Same VRAM. New job. Pause at 0:10. Look at the terminal. "GPU #0: EVGA GTX 1080, 53.54 MH/s." "accepted: 902/937." "Stratum difficulty set to 44.1414." Bottom right corner: "11/23/2017." That is not an AI log. That is an Ethereum mining log from November 2017. Each one of those cards was a printer for ETH. Then Ethereum killed proof-of-work in 2022 and 50 million GPUs went into a closet. The same hardware now runs the second wave: → 4 used GTX 1080s off eBay, ~$100 each → Total stack: ~$400 → 8 GB of VRAM per card → Spread a model across them: 32 GB of usable memory → One desktop tower, one PSU, one shell command The install: → ollama install — one line → ollama pull qwen2.5 / mistral 7b / llama 3.2 / phi 3 — one line each → One environment variable to point Claude Code at localhost → Same CLI. Nothing flies to Anthropic. The performance on a 4 × 1080 stack: → 7B models: 80–120 tok/s, comfortable for chat and agents → 13B–30B with layer splitting: 40–60 tok/s, fine for real conversations → Token logs sit on the same SSD as the model → Zero cloud calls. Zero per-token bills. The math he just deleted: → ChatGPT Pro: $200/month → Claude Code Max: $200/month → Cursor: $20/month → Annual: $5,040 → The rig: $400 once → Payback: under two months → Year-two delta: thousands. Electricity only after that. The old loop is dead. Sign up. Pay $5K a year. Watch every prompt ship to someone else's server. Hit rate limits on the worst possible afternoon. Now the rig is a closet appliance that used to mine ETH and now writes code. Here's what nobody in the AI subscription space is saying out loud: The mining boom subsidized a decade of cheap consumer VRAM. Miners paid full retail. They burned a billion in electricity. They dumped the cards on eBay at one-fifth of new-price the moment proof-of-work died. You are now buying that hardware at the loss the miners ate — to run the workload the cloud is renting back to you for $5,000 a year. Most people are still arguing whether local AI is "ready." Meanwhile, the same cards that mined ETH at 5am in 2017 are writing their owner's code at 5am in 2026. Bookmark this. The race for cheap AI just left the new-product shelf. Literally.

  @Dexerto can't justify that price but if it has a touchscreen i will be copping one on ebay once it comes down

  @daripitt @CardPurchaser @eBay Brutal. Seems like such an easy fix

  GM y'all! Here's the new project. I work on an SAR team and I have ATAK integrated with mesh on my phone but it's a pain to have to pull it out and look at it all the time while I'm working. So, new plan: Im going to find a cheap old GPS only Samsung Galaxy watch4 on eBay and use it to mirror my phones offline Google maps. I picked that watch because I need a smart watch that uses Wear OS because that will allow me to access and run actual Google maps natively within an app already designed to use them. Once I'm done I'll be able to have my watch running my location on gps and I just have to glance at my wrist. A lot less annoying than having to pull my phone out of a pouch or drop it down to look at it. Not a major problem by any means but fixing a small annoyance is still worth it.

  @KotoriSenseiBA Hi, would you happen to know if eBay and AliExpress would have a problem with this? Mainly for second hand/KO/new transformers items & upgrade kits From what I understood , hasbro themselves and amazon shouldn’t (?) have a problem…

  @RetroCoast I bought a used personal hidden camera on eBay because I needed just the recorder portion for a well/bore camera. It came with an SD card that had been wiped but I started to wonder what the previous owner would use it for. I had software I used to recover from corrupted memory cards and gave it a shot. It took all night but the next day there were 4 separate video files recovered. I played the files one by one, it was a man filming his apartment tours, he had the camera hidden about chest level, it was all very boring, filling applications and talking to apartment managers. I said, what a waste of time and skimmed through the last video, at the end, something caught my eye, it was him getting into his car while swinging HIS PURSE into the passenger seat, he was mumbling to himself sounding discouraged, then he sat down into the driver's seat for the great reveal, dainty women's dress shoes, pumps or heels or whatever, hairy legs and a tight fitting dress! This DUDE was trying to get anyone to openly discriminate against him for being a freak, ultimately it didn't work so he sold his hidden camera system.

  @eBay your chat is useless. Can somebody human contact me about an issue. Or can I get an email? Something not AI that can speak english?!

  This is one of the most interesting set-’em-up-and-knock-‘em-down opportunities I’ve seen in the market. The variables are largely staring us in the face. We know the balance sheet. We know the cash position. We know the buyback authorization. We know the eBay stake. We know the governance vote. We know Ryan Cohen’s playbook because we’ve watched him execute it before. But we also are going up against a stystem that has been captured. Keep the faith but don’t put all your eggs in one basket.

  @burntpnutclips @TCGPokePlug @eBay Yeah I sell a lot on eBay it’s not terrible … more hate towards the vendors who wanna give 80 the turn around and sell for 100% to the next guy. Depends on the card obviously

  No idiot this has no ramifications back home It just shows deep down the monarchist animals are hypocrites that would take the Jersey and probably will attempt to sell it on ebay
