  @g0lden8ge Antique roadshow: unfortunately Yes. The articles about people going to yard/estate sales and picking up a painting that’s actually a super rare one that’s worth a million dollars have slowed down. If you have something worth anything you just sell it on eBay.

  @ListerLawrence @Auto_Revving Presumably the battery is replaceable n'' all. A few years down the line, a quick purchase from eBay and it's good for another 5 years. What's not to like?

  @certifiedsanji 40$ is like average plarail price on eBay so I never understood the issue

  @BryanMcNamaraUS @k1rallik It's simple supply/demand. They're ramping down supply on an outdated piece of tech that is still in demand. They don't need to upgrade the Steam deck when people are selling them for this price for resale on ebay. Valve is simply giving the last few folks who didn't get one the chance to pay that price for a brand new model rather than a pre-owned one. Resources are being reallocated to the Machine and Frame, consider this a "Late adoption tax" for the people who want to get the first gen steamdeck one last time before it's sun sets.

  I read this this isn’t my personal card. I ran a business on eBay for years selling guitars and watched it decline till I left. This to me is wild as the error was cleared card was rebought and delivered as stated. eBay as a whole shifted hard to buyer protections leaving major loopholes on returns for quite a while. Exporting Hugh end guitars was what I mainly did and it became a nightmare allowing international bidders to force partial refunds for clearly listed items

  The eBay "mass accidental shipping overpricing" event continues! Sellers accept incorrect default settings and unknowingly set USPS calculated shipping to $75-$200 for items that should ship for $20 via Fedex/UPS. None of these items are ever going to sell! Potentially millions of items. The damage caused is hard to calculate, but it's certainly severe. Yes, the shipping is technically correct for the incorrect size/weight that is a seller's default -- USPS is simply the wrong carrier for items of any size/weight, which they are unaware of. But instead of blaming thousands of sellers for getting the system wrong, how about eBay gets a clue and suggests an optimal shipping method? I.e. "Hey, before you proceed with that, UPS/Fedex would probably be a better option! And by the way, based on all the data we have on what you're selling, are you SURE it weights 50lb and is 20x20x24?" I mean, they are trusting AI in a million bizarre and inappropriate ways, so why are they afraid to use some intelligence to determine proper shipping? In the last 3 months, I have personally walked 50 sellers through switching their shipping to UPS/Fedex and correcting dimensions. But most will not listen and suspect that a helpful buyer is up to something. I only know all this because I am the odd person who scours eBay 3-5 hours a day. This is a big problem, and nobody even seems to be aware of it. Certainly eBay isn't. Either they don't know, or they don't care -- pick one.

  @rustyshackmin @gmefan1684 @YoDooley Because anyone who invested when he became chairman of the board is down 60+%. Anyone who bought in when RK came back is underwater. Anyone who bought in when they announced ebay is down 20% in 2 weeks. I mean, is everyone losing money a good thing in your eyes or??

  @m74ft1 @powerpacks @natsturner Pretty sure it’s an eBay issue. I’ve had some never payout, eBay still list the cert as sold for the inflated price months later. Had to email PSA just to get card unlocked in the app so that I could relist etc.

  @Kyl0Z3n Wall Street is selling eBay. eBay will take a dive of a cliff towards the mid 90s. GME will have more than a billion dollars of losses from buying eBay at the ATH! GME earnings report will trigger a big sell off and take it to mid teens. I can see the **** show unfolding. GME will not have enough equity to be in the bid for eBay but it will not recover when merger fails because of the loss. eBay will pull back because merger failed. This is the **** show RC created instead of simply buying a mega cap in huge growth and increasing the cash at hand…. Maybe taking GME down to low teens was in this part of the plan.

  Look out! GME TAKEOVER EBAY whilst their pants are down. Caught between fiduciary duties and brazen corporate crime and theft of public company. EBay board will now have a lot of criminal proceedings as their blatant lack knowledge of how to run a business is negligible
