  In my view, many retail stores — both online and physical — are contributing to the same issue as eBay scalpers by selling products at excessive mark-ups far above the original retail price.

  @ShaunFitzzzy @ryancohen It's offensive, How sloppy the Ebay C suite behaves.. it is as if they don't care and can't be caught or corrected, thus why bother - just more doubling down while turning up the financial extraction strategies. It is looking as if they have a plan and are running a play....

  Anyone else having problems with EBay card scan? It just will not recognize the card today. I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled the app. @CardPurchaser. Need to list some more!

  @foxenflask Let’s not forget the massive buyback program that eBay has been running for years. The capital deployed into those repurchases could just as well have been used to pay down debt, reinvest in the platform, or improve the customer experience

  @Joferjeff They’ve been terrible . They let someone get a refund when i had a shipment in the mail. The customer won’t send the money back and ebay keeps denying me my money back . Nasty work from them lately.

  My thoughts on eBay’s dividend program: $EBAY is sitting on $6.7B in gross debt, paying $61M/quarter in interest, and about to drop $1.2B cash on Depop. Yet management just declared another $0.31/share dividend (~$556M annualized), with tomorrow (May 29) as the ex-dividend date and cash going out June 12. Buffett said it best in his 1984 letter: “Unrestricted earnings should be retained only when there is a reasonable prospect that for every dollar retained by the corporation, at least one dollar of market value will be created for owners.” eBay is returning hundreds of millions to shareholders annually while simultaneously carrying nearly $7B in gross debt at $244M in annual interest charges. That capital could be paying down debt, shoring up the balance sheet ahead of a $1.2B acquisition close, or reinvested into a platform that is visibly losing competitive ground. Instead, the company is prioritizing optics over fundamentals. Active buyers grew just 1% YoY. Margins across the board are declining while costs are increasing. The platform went down for ~48 hours in April after a cyberattack. The board quietly rewrote its own oversight committee charters after settling a federal cyberstalking criminal case. Sellers are now filing class action suits over surprise fee structures. A company with genuine earnings power and a clean balance sheet paying a dividend makes sense. A leveraged platform with stagnating user growth, mounting legal exposure, and a nine-figure acquisition pending doing the same deserves serious scrutiny.

  @CHARIcollector Gotta lock in on eBay listings. I’ve had an issue with carddealer pro that’s put listing in hold for the last month 😒

  If Cohen buying up options of eBay exposes the >100% institutional ownership issue, and eBay squeezes...does that fully remove the narrative aimed at GME, when the market folds? #GME #Ebay

  Speaking purely morally, disregarding the rules from ebay that you can't sell modded consoles—WHY DOES IT MATTER? The 3ds is officially a dead console. Nintendo doesn't offer replacement parts anymore, the eshop is dead, and all of the online features ARE SHUT DOWN

  @Globalstats11 The CCIE exam in 2026 isn’t that hard. The theory is easy; the practical part is the real problem because you can’t afford to make mistakes. That’s why it’s worth buying training materials from Asians for example from Vietnam - on eBay. In half a year, you can grind through the labs from an architect’s perspective.

  @eBay lol you’re absolutely ******* useless trash. My accounts been suspended twice and all I’ve done is login. Haven’t even been able to use eBay. Absolute ******* trash board room and exec level needs to step down and leave so the right people can take over and fix these issues.
