  Hundreds of thousands of items on eBay show massively overpriced shipping, and their sellers don't even realize -- can you please fix this, @ebay? This is entirely within your power to fix. You are only hurting eBay by not fixing it, because I guarantee you these items are NOT selling, and the sellers don't even see the problem unless buyers tell them about it. And don't blame sellers -- they are simply accepting your default option.

  @BillAckman Reselling is a big problem generally, Bill, look at EBay listings of collectible products bought up by bots, leaving consumers empty handed.

  @AnarchoDarling @VelcroFathoms I’ve been selling pretty steady on EBay the last 5 years & never had an issue with scammers.

  @sneedweb Nothing moves GME. Beat earning...down, bid for Ebay, down. Get out of Ebay bid, down. BTC goes down, GME down. BTC up, GME down. This is normal. Just wait, soon wall street can't suppress the price anymore.

  @wesbos @levelsio im gonna be honest its not even that flat, and the screen is still too bright in art mode and to get a real wood frame? you're gonna need to build it yourself (easy to be fair, but who wants their tv to be a wood working project), or spend another $900 to a "carpenter" on etsy who hacked up a few bead trim boards from the box store lumberyard and charges suburban housewives 20x margins for a "SOLID WOOD" product—spoilers, its young pine if you're lucky, and it shows you also can't put the box for it into the wall anymore, as they don't make a wall-rated power cord anymore, and fire rated cords go for a zillion dollars on eBay. so you're gonna have a shoebox somewhere random if you mount it on a wall its the worst TV i've ever owned was like $3k and its worse than the TV i had in college that I paid $150 for at walmart crashes constantly, needs updated all the time, logs out of all the streaming services. its painfully slow, apps take *forever* to load we had to have the 'brains' replaced within first year, just randomly died i dont regret most purchases. but i lement this tv decision

  Rippaverse is on track to make over $5 Million in revenue for 2026. Ethan Van Sciver has not only earned nothing outside of petty superchats, $1000 cover commissions, and ebay firesales, he has halted production on all of his comics because he can't afford to finish and fulfill them. Chicken ***** Shane Davis is in the shitter. Sunk 20-30k into BackHoleMeBro and is not going to end up making a profit off of that mess. Shane is going to be getting his backhole blown out both financially, and his reputation, for the next 2-3 years over that site until he quietly packs packs it up or triples down and goes into bankruptcy. Fat Horse Mandy Summers is starting to rack up a serious glut of unfilled books. She is approaching Ethan Van Sciver levels, and she has dragged Dale Keown's reputation into the mud with her as, the comic legend, Dale Keown, is now OFFICIALLY sitting on a late book that he owes backers. Worst of all, it's not even the coveted Pitt Omnibus. It's a single-volume trade paperback filled with ****** scans of old comic pages. You can get Pitt Trade Paperbacks RIGHT NOW for like $15 and they're from Image Comics, a real comic book company. And those use the original paint files so the art will be clear and crisp. Mandy is too stupid to pay Image Comics to get access to the original paint files and do the high-quality Pitt Omnibus that fans have been wanting since the 90s. With friends like Mandy, Dale doesn't need enemies. Dale would be in a better position if he had just left Pitt in the grave. No omnibus at all is better than this both for the fans and for Dale Keown's reputation. Ethan Van Sciver and his zeros are still LIMPING in 2026 and they still have 4 more months to fall even further. The BackMeBro Era of comicsgate is proving to be the worst one yet.

  I dropped $15,000 on SSDs this week It sounds insane until you look at the math - Walmart dropped a $290 solid state drive down to $130 - Amazon price matched instantly at $130 - eBay comps were holding firm at $220+ Our group bought hundreds of these before it went out of stock. All of these SSDs will move for $50 profit each easily. If you aren't monitoring for price drops like this, you're missing out on FREE MONEY in @AscendFBA

  In 1954 Mickey Mantle was the best baseball player in America. In 1994 he was a raging alcoholic with a failing liver. He jumped the transplant queue, got a new liver, kept drinking, and died anyway. The liver went to someone who could pay. Not to someone who needed it most. That is not a legal question. It is not a moral question. It is a microeconomics question - and there is a Harvard lecture that builds the framework to answer it from scratch. His name is Jonathan Gruber. MIT, 14.01, Principles of Microeconomics. He advised the Massachusetts health reform that became the model for the Affordable Care Act. He has taught this course at MIT for over two decades. This is lecture 1. One claim: every decision you have ever made is a constrained optimization problem. You just did not know it had a name. At 08:17 he uses the iPod to show how three questions get answered simultaneously by one mechanism. What gets produced. How it gets produced. Who gets it. The answer to all three is the same variable: price. One number coordinates millions of strangers without any of them knowing the others exist. At 19:13 he gives Adam Smith's paradox. Water is necessary for life. Diamonds are not. Water is nearly free. Diamonds cost a fortune. Smith had the question in 1776. The answer requires both sides of one equation - and the side he was missing is what this course is built on. At 21:15 he puts the kidney auction on eBay to the room. Starting price $25,000. Bidding reached $5 million before eBay shut it down. He asks whether eBay was wrong. The students argue. He does not resolve it. He says that question will take the rest of the semester to answer properly. A consultant I know says this is the lecture that made her realize she had been solving optimization problems her whole life without the vocabulary to describe them. Says she started seeing supply and demand curves in arguments she had been losing for years. Free on MIT OpenCourseWare, all 33 lectures. The kidney question from lecture 1 does not get a clean answer until week twelve. Most people who have opinions about ***** markets have never watched the part where the model is actually built.

  Watch out as an eBay Live seller for a user named: teel_5457 Running bids up and taking down over a dozen in a row and kept refusing to pay for the ones he won before bidding on more. Poor seller was about to lose his mind. #TheHobby

  @GilliverJamie Yes that’s the one, if you click bids you can see eBay keep removing fake bids so the price is constantly up and down it’s a mess

  @_bismack_ Going through all that trouble to save some money on Pokémon cards is so bizarre. If these people expended half this much energy at their day jobs they'd be millionaires lol. I get this a lot on fb marketplace but somehow have avoided it on ebay.
