  @XRPee1983 @Cliffracer56k I just don’t know when I’m gonna see another functioning Jag CD for less. The cheapest I’ve seen was a broken one on Ebay about 6 months ago for $650, by itself. It’s my grail console.

  @CoyoteKn0wsBest @ryancohen I really see no major issues with EBay or their business. I had a lot more respect for Cohen before all of this and the Bitcoin bullshit. True colors always show.

  Right now, I have the choice to buy $60+ digital games or physical discs at walmart, resold on ebay, or discounted on amazon for $25 or less. Not to mention I’ll actually own the game and have the ability to share it with my gf or resell. This is vanishing.. ******* terrible

  @space_canti I just buy the hard copies of games on EBay. Circumvents the entire issue altogether

  The Story of a Small Server Leo bought a Lenovo ThinkStation P330 Tiny for $340 on eBay. He installed an Nvidia T400, added 32GB of RAM and an NVMe SSD. Parts cost $180. Total: $520. He lives in a small apartment. Electricity runs about $6 a month for the box. It draws 45 watts. Runs 24/7. On that hardware he deployed five agents: •One scans Upwork, Clutch, and LinkedIn — finds companies that need outsourced dev work •One studies each company’s site and writes a personalized email in 40 seconds •One reviews the copy before anything gets sent •One handles the replies and answers questions •One tracks conversion rates and flags what to change Result after 3 months: 8 clients. $1,200 a month each. $9,600 a month. From a box under his desk. He works two hours in the morning. The rest of the day, the box runs itself. His neighbors think he’s unemployed — he’s home all day. He doesn’t explain.

  @ChiMaxwellSt @CardPurchaser @eBay At least you have the safety net of it going to eBay first, if they don’t get it you shouldn’t have an issue getting your refund, and when they do get it they’ll give their own tracking when they ship it

  @SpawnPoiint Digital. I do not care for clutter & I do not care for eBay flippers or gamestop glorified rental programs. the used market cannibalizes sales. 15% of sales are physical, so since, at time of writing, 71% of your votes are physical enjoyers, that means most of them are buying used instead of buying the game. When it is possible, there is nothing wrong with it. Since it will no longer be possible, maybe price hikes will go away. Maybe you will not need plus just to play online. Maybe the price of plus will go down. You never know. Actually, you do, because investors will not accept something like that. But maybe the hikes will stop. Imagine if your numbers up there are accurate right now. That means that despite new games sales being only 15% of all sales, 71% of people prefer physical. That means the vast majority of physical players never buy from the source & are constantly re-buying the same discs at least 4 to 5 times over - and they wonder why gaming is getting so expensive per-game! Sony has announced that their platform will no longer have the income cannibalized by gamestop or eBay flippers. 1 key = 1 account. As God intended.

  @grayuzuhiko You could also try things like eBay or just searching up the magazine issue on google (which in this case is "V Jump August 2026") to see if a more appropriate site shows up.

  @eBay has the worst customer service. Speaking as a seller and buyer. Terrible.

  Elon Musk on how PayPal got its first 100,000 customers in one month “I didn’t expect PayPal’s growth rate to be what it was, and that actually created major problems,” Elon explains. “We started PayPal on University Avenue [in Palo Alto], and after the first month or so of the website being active, we had 100,000 customers.” As Elon explains, the key to PayPal’s viral growth was it referral program: “We started off first by offering people $20 if they opened account and $20 if they referred anyone. Then we dropped it to $10, and then we dropped it to $5. As the network got bigger and bigger, the value of the network itself exceeded any sort of carrot that we could offer.” He continues: “And then we just did a bunch of things to decrease the friction. It’s like bacteria in a petri dish. What you want to do is try to have one customer generate two customers, or three customers ideally. And then you want that to happen really fast.” Elon estimates that PayPal spent $60-70 million to fuel this growth, before the company was acquired by eBay for $1.5 billion.

  @LeanPicachu @woggerman1974 Xbox had this in the works for Xbox One when the internet melted down on their e3 unvailing. Every sale was going to have a small percentage fee that went to the platform (xbox) and the publisher of the game. They get a cut of every transaction. Like how Ebay does.

  @GoodBoy1660880 @eBay @askebay Buyer protection is a joke. I reported a rude seller who lied about the size of an Hermès bracelet. I bought 5 in 2026 with no issues. EBAY must have a hub for returns of disputes. I dont trust the seller. So I lost my money 🙄

  @bobdole08923509 This was my thought all along. You’ve got their audience with free marketing. Now take their user base and crater their stock. GME price goes up and EBay goes down and leverage the acquisition at half the cost

  @AmanogawaShiina Just order new ones off amazon and sell the old ones on ebay. Problem solved.

  AMC&GME: My opinion: If the bad actors had not manipulated the system so drastically…. We may have never known how corrupt the system is. With AMC&GME doing so well it magnifies the problem of manipulation….especially if GME gets EBay
