  @LM39720 @LBFlyawayhome Yes, I did and oh how I wished I'd kept it. Been tempted to buy some off eBay but the prices are ridiculous. Such happy memories, although trying to fix the shelf in the green house was a nightmare.

  @TonyClimate @eBay The customer/seller support from eBay is terrible considering the fees they charge sellers. Almost makes dealing with the Facebook marketplace lowballers tolerable.

  @anomalie_blue I bought a broken $2000 stingray in highschool off ebay and my parents freaked out and made me return it.

  These aren’t accusations, just talking out loud about an “odd” feeling. I feel as a matter of opinion that PSA is going to be bankrupt and seized in the next several years and executives brought in on RICO charges. There is a direct circular link between the skyrocketing value of sports cards and PSA revenues. I’m not saying it’s happening, but essentially PSA can buy a PSA 9 or 10 card from itself on EBay for 5-10x the price the same card sold for from a respected (former) grader BGS and cite it as the worth of a card, then charge EVERY person that submits that card substantially more money (hundreds to thousands of dollars) to be graded. Well of course that would never work, because that would mean people could buy a $45,000 MJ Rookie card graded BGS gem mint and send it into PSA with $20,000+ to make it worth $350,000. A massive spiraling disconnect that screams RICO crime. Oh then PSA just bought BGS to help fix “that” problem. Major cracks are forming and reportedly “lost” value on PSA grading which is what has me thinking things are about to break fast. I’ve been unloading everything in the collection as cracks grow.

  My AI work flow has temporarily shifted. As I am doing some DIY engine work. My agents research any problem parts as I take them out. Photo of damaged part in = Most reported causes of failure + any premium or heavy duty parts that address this. Another agent is scraping forums for hot fixes, work arounds, tips/tricks. Another agent is building a list of parts to be replaced and sourcing them from ebay or wherever and then compares price with reviews.(checks with the agent researching failure point and premium heavy duty alternatives) Another agent is just ready for voice chat. For random questions or a morale boost. Haha. The caveat of being a one man team and not having enough resources to just build out a 2nd team. I still have one agent working on Corvus Hypervisor but he's busy sorting an issue in local commits that got broken. (Somehow two agents tried to write files at the same time). I take daily snapshots but whatever gives them something to do lol. To address this - I will be using a lock file type of method when we return which will be added to our work flow.

  Anyone else getting the message that eBay standard envelope is experiencing issues?

  @driver61d1 there's a chance that GME is selling its shares which is causing EBAY to go down. I don't think so, but I'm always surprised.

  @TonyClimate @eBay lie. I buy ALOT on ebay and have NEVER had trouble getting ahold of them. Several refunds. Several gift cards sent my way. Several account credits. Never had an issue. One time product came not as described. They refunded me and let me keep the product. Dont lie on @eBay

  9 months ago I started my Pokémon journey, although I had many cards as a child in played condition I wanted to go heavy and feel passion once again. Invested roughly around $8k till the date. I made a mistake on beginning by gambling and ripping good amount of packs, wanted to pull the chase, instead I dived deep, learned how to search for a good cards, sets or negotiate for several stuff. Pokémon market is indeed interesting when its combined by hobby and businesses. Till today I have at least 500 sales, purchases as well, trading cards in person or via facebook groups, ebay or cardmarket is really good experience, so the card shows as well. IMO market as this is really complex and entirely depends on liquidity and its volatility which is far lower than we have in crypto market. So to understand how certain stuff hold onto the chart or why Pokémons are like slow and without any bumps, its because someone has to buy either card or sealed product from You or someone else, You simply cannot dump and crash market like its the case with crypto or stocks. Obviously it will stagnate and there is certain of price corrections atm, especially with modern cards or sets like Destined Rivals. But as for me, I'm building and trying to collect vintage sets and cards, I don't have a fear for stuff that are in existence for 20 or 30 years that will loose on value, mayve a correction or a chance to grab a holy grail or decent slabs, but definitely in coming years it can get more on price than right now.

  @stonksandcards The ole “label created” and then nothing…poof, gone. lol. I do think they are getting better though. Either eBay, USPS, both know this is a problem.

  @RobsRips You keep saying “offering 60%” like there’s a firmly established realistic market. There’s not. There’s some people on eBay buying early based on early success. Like anything, it’s just gonna go down. I just literally paid $800 for the same card. If you think it’s $1300, fine lol

  Furthermore, how could @eBay policy allow someone with an uncompleted sale to shut down their account?

  A Yale class that costs $86,000 a year is the reason Google, eBay, and every ad exchange on earth can price you perfectly. Yale posted it for free in 2008. Millions watched. Almost nobody used it. The professor is Ben Polak — Yale's former Provost, and one of the most-watched lecturers on the internet. His course, ECON 159: Game Theory, breaks down into a handful of ideas quietly running every market you touch. Dominant strategies. If one move wins no matter what your opponent does, take it. Everything else in game theory exists because this almost never happens. Nash equilibria. The point where nobody can do better by moving alone. Every wage, every auction bid, every market price you've ever seen is one. Auction design. Google Ads is a modified second-price auction. eBay is English ascending. Treasury bills are Dutch descending. Same math, different formats — each one extracts a different amount of money from you depending on which one you're in. Tit-for-tat. In Robert Axelrod's 1980 tournament, the simplest strategy on earth beat every complex algorithm entered against it. It's still why most stable business relationships work. Polak's one certain rule, repeated every semester: "Never play a strictly dominated strategy." Retail traders break it constantly — doubling down on a loser because taking the loss feels worse than the risk of losing more. The lectures are free. The problem sets are free. The equations fit in thirty pages. The math was never the moat. Sitting through 24 hours of it before you open a bid box, a terminal, or a negotiation — that's the part almost nobody does.
