  @Lucky_____Me Not to be an ***, but that’s not the buyers issue. You shouldn’t advertise on eBay while simultaneously trying to sell it privately. Just not a good business model. Just my opinion

  @LeratoPillayZA Amazon, eBay, Takealot, etc. Do any of these of these produce anything in South Africa, or do they too just bring in ready made products from wherever?🤔 Your consumerism conditioned brain is truly a problem.

  @Pittsburgh1Pete The issue is I’ve sent 3 cards to authentication through eBay. 1 was lost in transit to the facility and the other 2 got damaged after leaving the facility because they give a **** less how they package them up. Left a bad taste in my mouth and took forever to get compensated.

  Man said something important here. "Sold comps." The biggest reason people think eBay is slow or doesn't work is because they price where they see active listings priced. Too many factors to blindly list against another sellers price. Takes 2 secs to check the sales, dates, and prices. All 3 are important. That's the ONLY way to source and list on eBay. Search page listings tells you nothing. Do this and you'll realize OA on eBay is not only easy but a no brainer addition to your reselling biz.

  HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) has successfully recovered over £104.3 million in unpaid taxes from landlords in the 2025/26 tax year alone by utilizing targeted "nudge letters". Data obtained by accountancy firm Price Bailey reveals that this marks the third consecutive year that receipts from these prompts have exceeded £100 million, nearly tripling the £36.8 million collected in 2019/20. What Are Nudge Letters? Informal Prompts: Officially called "One-to-Many" letters, these are behavioral science-backed notifications rather than formal tax audits. Pre-emptive Warnings: They alert targeted groups that HMRC has spotted data discrepancies, urging recipients to review and voluntarily correct their tax filings. Cost-Effective Compliance: They shift the administrative burden upstream, forcing taxpayers to check their own records instead of tying up tax officers in complex investigations. Core Targets of the Crackdown: HMRC cross-references data using its sophisticated "Connect" AI system alongside global financial data networks. The primary focal areas include: Landlords: Over 11,511 voluntary disclosures were made via the Let Property Campaign in 2025/26 using Land Registry matching. Crypto Investors: More than 65,000 nudge letters were issued to cryptocurrency traders after HMRC cross-checked transactions from digital asset exchanges. Online Marketplace Sellers: People selling high volumes on platforms like eBay, Vinted, Etsy, and Airbnb are closely monitored. Offshore Wealth Assets: UK residents flagged in international data leaks, such as the Pandora Papers, are heavily targeted. Common Mistakes Being Uncovered: Many disclosures come from "accidental landlords" or hobbyists who genuinely did not realize they owed tax. Frequent errors include: Confusing property repairs (deductible) with capital improvements (non-deductible). Misunderstanding the restriction on mortgage interest deductions, which was replaced by a 20% tax credit. Falling over the taxable thresholds for casual side-hustles and online storefronts.

  @FragmenTerry That's how you do it. Had a similar thing with my old Jeep. Constant check engine lines for some Obama era environmental sensor bullshit. Dealer and garage want $$$ just to do a smoke test. Found the part on ebay. $50. Tire off, lining off, swap it out. No other issues.

  @TheOutlawinTX Bro, same, I've been shot, stabbed and beaten down and I still prefer that to needles. Here's a hint. Search "Pain Stim Fidgit Toy" on Amazon or eBay. They're lil spiky fidgit toys that will distract you from the needles and they're cheap. GL man

  Ebay has been ordered to pay a $55.7m settlement to an American couple over a harassment campaign by company executives which included doxing, online threats and the delivery of live cockroaches to their home. The orchestrated campaign, which lasted for two months in the summer of 2019, was waged against husband and wife David and Ina Steiner by six eBay employees and one contractor. The couple were targeted after posting criticism of eBay’s corporate and policy changes on their newsletter and website EcommerceBytes, which is popular among eBay sellers, Wired reported. The campaign began with anonymous threats via Twitter DMs before ramping up to malicious deliveries to the Steiner family home. Items sent to the couple included pornography, a bloody pig mask, pests such as fly larvae, live spiders and cockroaches, a book about grieving a spouse and a funeral wreath. Ebay employees had the Steiners trailed in a rented van and posted fake classified ads on Craigslist advertising a ******* party, a ********* and a yard sale with their home address. After the police were contacted, the harassment campaign tailed off as those involved sought to conceal their actions. Former eBay CEO Devin Wenig told Wired via a representative that he was “saddened” by the harassment. He has continually asserted that he had no knowledge of the specific actions taken by the group who carried out the campaign. Wenig is alleged to have given former eBay chief communications officer Steve Wymer the order to “take her down,” in reference to Ina Steiner. However, his lawyers claim he was referring to a communications plan and not any criminal behaviour, a claim supported by court documents according to Wired. Six former eBay staff and a contractor were charged with taking part in the campaign in 2020. The Steiners followed with a civil suit the following year. The case has now reached a final settlement which will award the Steiners more than $46.15m from eBay, $2m from former CEO Devin Wenig, $500,000 from former executive Wendy Jones, and $50,000 from former executive Steve Wymer. David Steiner told Wired: “We were really adamant that this type of behaviour by a Fortune 500 corporation didn’t go unchecked.” In a published statement, eBay said that what the Steiners were subjected to was “wrong, reprehensible and should never have happened,” and that the company had strengthened its policies, controls and training since the incident.
