  @teh_Gazzy The plastic in those things just breaks down over an unacceptably short time but you can buy replacement caps for the joystick from eBay for under ten bucks and disassembling the 3DS to replace it isn't really that hard.

  @mov_axbx Power. That is what this boils down to. The Spark will stay in the 2 digits, while this one gets to hair dryer level. Processors alone at idle 400w TDP. And there is NO WAY you are getting a server with 6TB of memory for $500. A 4TB model on ebay right now is selling for $88,000+.

  BEFORE THE POP (@beforethepop) reported 12 minutes ago

  Alpha: Buy We spent hours pulling apart the 1999 Zelda: Ocarina of Time Carddass set. It passes nearly every test I have. It’s old. It’s Japanese. Zelda was a monster IP then and it still is now. Link is one of the defining characters in gaming. There’s a real chase: 42 cards, but only six holographic prisms. And almost nobody seems to care about them. That’s the bit I’m interested in. Because when we started checking the PSA populations, things got stupid. The high-grade pops are tiny. Some of the prism chases have no PSA 10 at all. Link #5 and Ganondorf currently have zero. Then we went looking for the supply that could prove the pops meaningless. Clean raw prisms? Barely anything. Old sealed product? Even stranger. These were sold through Carddass vending machines in Japan. Four cards together, held by basically a strip of paper. No modern foil pack. No tamper-proof seal. You can inspect the cards. So I’m not looking at 27-year-old banded stacks and assuming there’s a giant untouched supply of mint prisms hiding in them. Then there’s the one obvious fail. These are not Link rookie cards. Link had already been around for more than a decade. But they are first-era Ocarina of Time cards, released in 1999 immediately after the 1998 game. And if you’re going to fail the rookie test, being tied to Ocarina of Time is a decent consolation prize. It still sits at the very top of the all-time review tables, and Nintendo is bringing it back again in 2026. So we started trying to buy the chase. This is where the whole thing became comedy. One of the only Link #5 PSA 9s was sitting at US$880. We negotiated. Seller eventually decided he wasn’t selling. His message: “I’m actually going to take the card down, and wait till after the remake releases.” Listing gone. Great. Then almost immediately my phone goes off. eBay alert. Jump Attack PSA 9. The other card we’d been stalking had just dropped from £475.79 to £258.92. 45.6% off. About US$350. After spending hours watching a market with basically no supply refuse to give us anything, one of the cards we wanted had just been cut almost in half. We bought it. Then kept going. Heritage bids rejected. Offers flying around. PSA populations open in one tab. Japanese raw cards in another. Eventually we also picked up Ganondorf in PSA 8, because there isn’t even a PSA 10 to wait for. That’s the bet. Not “Zelda is popular.” First Ocarina of Time era. Six-card prism chase. Japanese vending distribution. Almost no mint raw supply we could find. Brutally low high-grade populations. Parts of the chase with zero PSA 10s. One of the biggest gaming IPs on earth, then and now. And a market that still feels half asleep. It fails the Link rookie test. Everything else got very hard to ignore. Alpha: Buy.

  eBay spent 2024 suspending sellers who route orders to Amazon and Walmart. Most sourcing tools are still happily routing orders to Amazon and Walmart. Built Lotvault to fix that — wholesale, 3PL, lot items, and the compliance layer to keep your account open. Live soon.

  Hi @eBay / @eBay_UK, is there anyway to switch off the annoying AI feature when uploading pictures of items to sell? It frequently comes up with inaccurate information and listing now takes longer due to having correct the errors.

  @Grevious47 @Dexerto The issue is the nut jobs buying everything they can then dropping on Ebay for a 4x mark up.

  @XRPspider The problem really comes in where there's a lack of delivery through these off-platform sellers. I know that @amazon is going to mess up delivery to my address because their gps is retarded but I can't be assured that shopping walmart or ebay will avoid an amazon resell.

  Day 194 Total sales: $599.00 eBay earnings: $102.82 Buy cost (COG): $15.54 Net profit: $87.28 ROI: 562% Today was definitely an unusual one. On paper, it looks like a slow day, but the story is a little different. 3 higher dollar orders were canceled before they shipped, which meant they hit today's numbers even though I still have the inventory ready to sell again. That's one thing I've learned about reselling, not every low profit day is a bad day. Sometimes it's returns. Sometimes it's cancellations. Sometimes it's just timing. The important part is that those items are still sitting on my shelf, ready to be sold to the next buyer. You can't control cancellations, but you can control how quickly you relist, how consistently you source, & whether you keep moving forward. Tomorrow is another opportunity, & those canceled items are already back in inventory waiting for their next sale. That's just part of the business. On to Day 195. 📦💪

  The eBay seller stack is broken. Analytics in one tab, listings in another, repricing in a third — none of them talk to each other. Bayquill fixes that. One AI SaaS for SKUs, listings, and Buy Box. Pre-2026. Coming soon.

  Who’s the idiot that made a post about $GME being “down $30M” on their eBay investment again? I can’t remember cause I blocked them faster than you can look up how to spell imbecile.
