  I was nosing through ebay and my throne wishlist to make sure that all of my items on my throne are still available. Cool news is that one of the items went down in price. Bad news. For some reason i can’t change the price or shipping cost(which is higher than necessary by default for some reason) and it doesn’t appear to auto update? And it already has some funding? So idk if i can fix it or not. But lil figs like $25.50 shipped now and throne thinks it’s $30 w $8 shipping so it’s listed at almost twice its actual cost rn😭

  @MarioBrothBlog Man I remember when I was a kid I played my cousin $10 for his game boy camera. He said he’d bring it next time he visited, but it was a full year later and he’d forgotten. My heart was broken. Don’t know why I didn’t just get one off of eBay, I think it was 2003 or 4.

  @joshuas430 @BosCardHunter I haven’t ever sold anything through eBay so I wouldn’t be knowledgeable enough to speak on it, on the buying end, I’ve been told about undisclosed flaws or problems which I don’t mind because I typically buy rare and unique items so I won’t find another. But it’s nice to know

  I known about that for over 20 years. And not only that but I bought a Japanese PS2 off of ebay like 3 years ago. And I have a Japanese Nintendo 64, as well as a Super Famicom. I traded in my Sega Nomad and Sega Genesis decades ago. Also take into account the PS2 is backwards compatible with the PS1. So I still can play Japanese Playstation games from the 1990's without a problem.

  Nobody made money owning the internet, everybody made money building on top of it (Save this). That's @friedberg argument because Netscape built the first browser and server software, charged for both, went public, then got wiped out once open source alternatives showed up. Mozilla built Firefox for free, Google built Chrome for free, Apache gave away server software so anyone could get online without paying a toll. The value didn't vanish, it just moved off the gatekeepers and onto everyone building on top, Google, eBay, Etsy, Amazon, and millions of small businesses that never could have existed otherwise. Friedberg's claim is that AI is following the same script. If open models keep closing the gap with proprietary ones, value stops concentrating in two or three labs and spreads across every company building on top of it and the data backs this up. Stanford's 2026 AI Index found the gap between the best closed model and the best open model has shrunk to about 3.3%, down from double digits two years ago. Chinese open models now account for 41% of downloads on Hugging Face over the past year and more than 30% of Fortune 500 companies have verified accounts pulling models straight from that ecosystem. Enterprise sentiment backs it too, 41% of organizations say they'd drop proprietary models entirely once open ones hit parity, and another 41% are expanding open source usage regardless. The market already got a preview of this snapping into place. DeepSeek's open weight model release in January 2025 wiped close to $600 billion off Nvidia's market cap in a single day. That's what Chamath means by value capture evaporating in months, not decades. A sector with what looked like permanent pricing power turned out to have a shelf life measured in product cycles. Where this gets uncomfortable is capex and if enterprises can get most of what they need from a free open model on their own hardware, the case for endlessly compounding training spend weakens. Analysts have flagged this as a risk that isn't priced into current capex forecasts, precisely because open models keep closing the gap faster than commercial labs are widening it.

  Dear @ryancohen, A real eBay experience… I ordered about $168 worth of coffee from Amazon. They shipped the wrong flavor. I opened the app on my iPhone expecting to start a return. Instead, Amazon instantly refunded me and basically said, “Keep the coffee.” So now I have four cases of coffee. I figured I’d sell them on eBay. The AI listing was actually pretty slick. It recognized the product immediately and even suggested a price. Then I got stuck. The AI wanted to create a listing for all 4 cases (about $147 total). What I wanted was 1 case for $37.69 with a quantity of 4 available. I couldn’t figure out how to do that, and the app wouldn’t let me switch to a manual listing instead of using AI. I messed with it on my phone for way longer than I should have before giving up. I canceled the listing, figured I’d ask AI how to get around it later, and then got distracted. So… the coffee is still sitting in my house. To be fair, Amazon basically handed me free money, and eBay would let me create four separate listings if I wanted. I just think it’s a better experience for buyers who want multiple cases, better for sellers who don’t want to jump through extra hoops (or ship four separate orders), and probably better for eBay too. Anyway… when you take over eBay, can you have someone look into this? I’m guessing it’s an easy fix. Thanks, Cognito

  @JayStrellson @antonydavies It’s also bizarre that the problem is the people subsidizing Walmart to pay workers below sustenance, but you want to talk about eBay. Eliminate profit, and Walmart will have plenty of money to pay workers.

  @JaePatriot17 @NostalgiaYZ The lead is no problem. The "cassettes" are easy enough to treat lightly, and come up on ebay all the time anyway. (never had the need). The trickiest part is finding erasers that fit in the little metal holders. Too thick, and they crack the cassette top.

  An Open Letter to the United States Postal Service Dear USPS, Thank you for changing your shipping rates again. We sellers were becoming dangerously comfortable. Some of us had gone nearly two weeks without rebuilding our shipping calculations, changing listing policies or trying to explain to buyers why mailing a pair of jeans now requires a degree in advanced mathematics. Fortunately, you have rescued us from that stability. On June 22, you suddenly lowered Ground Advantage rates for many packages weighing three to five pounds. It was a strange decision that made some heavier packages cheaper to mail than lighter ones, but we foolishly assumed there might be a plan behind it. Then came another collection of rate changes on July 12. Now, effective July 25, you have raised those three-to-five-pound rates by ten cents—with roughly one day’s notice. Apparently, this particular increase didn’t require the usual public rate-change process because it involved special USPS Connect eCommerce pricing. That is a wonderfully convenient arrangement. You can call something a “negotiated discount,” alter it whenever the wind changes direction and leave eBay to tell sellers after we have already priced thousands of listings around it. Very clever. The ten cents isn’t the real problem. The problem is that nobody running a business can depend upon a shipping system whose prices are apparently being adjusted with the same careful planning used by a gas station changing the numbers on its roadside sign. Sellers need predictable costs. Buyers need understandable shipping charges. Marketplaces need enough notice to update their calculators properly. What we receive instead is another announcement explaining that yesterday’s rates are no longer today’s rates—but not to worry, because everything will update automatically. How comforting. Perhaps USPS could publish a schedule showing when it plans to reconsider, reverse, adjust, fine-tune or partially undo its latest pricing brainstorm. If no schedule exists, a spinning prize wheel would work equally well: Congratulations! This week, three-pound packages cost less than ten-ounce packages! Come back next week to see what five pounds costs! Rural ZIP code? Sorry—different game entirely! USPS is supposed to be a national delivery service, not an airline fare calculator. Sellers should not need to check postage rates every morning before listing an item, wondering whether the price changed overnight or whether yesterday’s “special discount” has quietly become today’s “small adjustment.” Please choose a rate structure, explain it clearly, provide reasonable notice and leave it alone long enough for the people using your service to operate an actual business. Or don’t. At this rate, we’ll probably receive another announcement correcting this one before the ink dries. Sincerely, An eBay seller who would merely like the cost of mailing a package to remain predictable for more than fifteen minutes

  It’s interesting to watch the delay in Bowman color increasing in value as a player’s stock goes up. There’s a prospect whose base auto has gone from $30 to $65 but there’s a Gold Auto of his sitting on eBay at $500 with 40+ watchers. If the seller pulled it down and auctioned it I would bet everything I own that it would go over $500, but nobody wants to be the first one to buy a card “over comps”. They’d end up going over that price in a bidding war though once they realized somebody else would also pay that much. Such a silly game we play.

  @Priangshu33678 @eBay I am dealing with the same issue with my account. I so tried to sell 2jerseys that were legitimate one from the Company puma and the other from Nike. I had receipts on these items and they still said they were counterfeit. I’ve seen other website websites that sell identical item
