  🚨 SOS Card Peeps! Need some help ASAP please. 🚨 I received an offer on My Acuff 1/1 card on eBay. The guy offered me a fair price and is now negotiating with me…I’m totally fine with that, but in our chat (on eBay) the user name keeps changing…when I click on the first name at the top of the chat it seems like he is a legit seller/buyer. When the other name pops up, it says “error” Is someone trying to scam me or is this some kind of issue with eBay’s messaging?!? Thanks in advance!

  @LLMJunky @stevenharms I don’t sell much on eBay but almost every tech item I’ve had scammer issues. Luckily I didn’t lose any money and they were fairly low value items in the 100-300 range. I would not trust selling a multi thousand dollar item there.

  @eBay why do you allow terrible people like this on your platform? He replies to feedback with threats and stalking (when I ran a background check), brings in users family's (you have a 10 year old), deflects any blame or responsibility, and it just horrible. You should kick him off the platform.

  @CCCollectorTCG I ship via eBay to third-party shipping companies almost daily. I've never had any concerns or issues with them. All the orders work out fine.

  @CardsMax If Comc didn’t take 6 months to process or ship, they could have caused real problems for ebay.

  Most people never see the inversion coming. They see the crash. The coup. The empty bank account. The factory that will not ship. Then they analogize: more staff, more robots, more of last year’s stack. Innovators do the opposite. They stay in the problem until the cost curve breaks. PayPal ousted Musk in 2000 for pushing a rebrand and a Unix-to-Windows NT migration. He did not wage a public war. He stayed a shareholder. eBay paid $1.5 billion in 2002. His ~11.7% stake — about $180 million — funded SpaceX and Tesla. By late 2008 both companies were days from death. Three Falcon 1 failures. Tesla about to miss payroll. One last rocket. Flight 4 worked on September 28. NASA signed $1.6 billion in December. He put his remaining cash into a $20 million Tesla bridge that closed Christmas Eve. Analogical thinking said “stop.” Physics said “one more launch.” Reusable first stages. Manual labor where the robots jammed. 5,000 Model 3s a week after he ripped out the over-automated line and slept on the floor. 75% of Twitter’s headcount gone so the cost of running the network inverted. That is not grit as a slogan. That is inverting labor, capital, and infrastructure until unit economics work. Follow people who have innovated at least once. Not the ones narrating the next analog. I built a platform to help average people think like that before you commit the capital. More on that soon. This is 100% a real interview LOL

  @The_Top_Loader Your only problem with Snes controllers is the plastic decaying or the seals in the D-pad & buttons vapourising. Even those, eBay will accommodate you.

  @643DoublPlay @CardPurchaser He actually is asking over $10k on eBay so I got him down to $7k

  @laralogan Goodwill was established to train unemployed or undereducated men to repair items for resale. Now they don't accept broken items that need repair. And they have learned that they can make more money reselling stuff on eBay than in stores.

  @SeeifIhaveit Fifteen minutes while you were taking the eBay listing down is brutal. That's the one that gets you.

  @selStreams @austeregrim @RDKLInc You can't buy CPAPs, for example, on eBay. They are class II medical devices and their requires a doctor's prescription. Some people have tried to get around that by selling a CPAP travel bag for $300, which just so happened to have a CPAP in it. But eBay has cracked down on that, too. Not all medical devices require a prescription, though.

  Anyone else notice how much better listing has gotten? I hadn’t listed cards on eBay in a while because of the fees and how long it took. Used to be 3–5 minutes per card. Listed a few Laz and Rainiel cards today and the AI had me down to about a minute each. @CardPurchaser
