amir(❖,❖) inkog.base.eth🟣🟢 (@amirhp771) reportedIn 2022, I convinced myself that buying a heavy vintage CRT monitor from eBay would give my artwork a truly authentic retro feel. I spent three weeks bidding, paid four times the item price just for international shipping, and tracked the cargo ship across the ocean every single morning. When the massive forty kilogram wooden crate finally arrived, my friend @Hosseinp77 and I set it up on my desk with pure excitement. I flipped the power switch, the screen flickered bright green for one second, made a loud pop sound, and instantly blew out the circuit breaker in my entire apartment. Writing this downbad confession for @RallyOnChain reminds me how far down the rabbit hole we go when we mistake extreme cope for creative commitment. What is your most downbad story from crypto, tech, or life that you are still embarrassed to admit today?

Just Oliver 3D (@TomOliver3D) reported@Stretchedwiener @eBay Usually when I sell on eBay I pick the shipping method after the purchase, but this time when I went to ship the item eBay automatically picked an option and created the label without even showing me. I should have known there was an issue then.

CMO333 (@Hellaorganics) reportedI have to reiterate I sold 10,000 magic cards with literally zero problems on tcgplayer and eBay. I sold 7 pokemon cards and half of the transactions had complaints trying to get discounts or the card for free. It’s amazing. The card buying community on Pokemon is **** high key. I dont know what else to say. Also every local trade ended up Having a scammer trying to grift some fake product. The magic I sold. Zero issues locally. I don’t know what to say about this or what valuable insights you can get from this.

Totodile King (@totodile_king) reportedWell that’s never a good feeling. Won this box from Dcsports87 auction house on eBay and it’s resealed 1. Immediately noticed all of the packs were upside down 2. The four packs I opened basically just opened themselves (no glue) 3. Under closer inspection some of the packs were just straight up open. Hoping for a quick resolution here.

DDubbbz (@ddubbz918) reported@aceofcards89 @RobsRips They gave their customers the option to move their consignments to their booth instead of eBay. Definitely not a great error to make, but of all the people in this hobby, I'd trust Josh & Zach at PC with my life. If something happened, they'd go above & beyond to make it right.

TCGplayer (@TCGplayer) reported@workshopwes @eBay Hey there, I'm sorry to hear you're having trouble with an order! If you could message us with some additional info, such as your email address and order number, I'd be happy to look into this further for you!

Palta T. (@TriplePronged) reported@MagatsuKingpin @GameStalgiaX Unfortunately, as long as used game sellers like GameStop, online resale stores, such as eBay, and greedy/lazy game developers exist, this will still be a problem.

Gen X are based (@LinPau22) reportedHM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) has successfully recovered over £104.3 million in unpaid taxes from landlords in the 2025/26 tax year alone by utilizing targeted "nudge letters". Data obtained by accountancy firm Price Bailey reveals that this marks the third consecutive year that receipts from these prompts have exceeded £100 million, nearly tripling the £36.8 million collected in 2019/20. What Are Nudge Letters? Informal Prompts: Officially called "One-to-Many" letters, these are behavioral science-backed notifications rather than formal tax audits. Pre-emptive Warnings: They alert targeted groups that HMRC has spotted data discrepancies, urging recipients to review and voluntarily correct their tax filings. Cost-Effective Compliance: They shift the administrative burden upstream, forcing taxpayers to check their own records instead of tying up tax officers in complex investigations. Core Targets of the Crackdown: HMRC cross-references data using its sophisticated "Connect" AI system alongside global financial data networks. The primary focal areas include: Landlords: Over 11,511 voluntary disclosures were made via the Let Property Campaign in 2025/26 using Land Registry matching. Crypto Investors: More than 65,000 nudge letters were issued to cryptocurrency traders after HMRC cross-checked transactions from digital asset exchanges. Online Marketplace Sellers: People selling high volumes on platforms like eBay, Vinted, Etsy, and Airbnb are closely monitored. Offshore Wealth Assets: UK residents flagged in international data leaks, such as the Pandora Papers, are heavily targeted. Common Mistakes Being Uncovered: Many disclosures come from "accidental landlords" or hobbyists who genuinely did not realize they owed tax. Frequent errors include: Confusing property repairs (deductible) with capital improvements (non-deductible). Misunderstanding the restriction on mortgage interest deductions, which was replaced by a 20% tax credit. Falling over the taxable thresholds for casual side-hustles and online storefronts.

yelziveta (@lettercunt) reported@emilkyun I’ve always assumed it’s import fees or something but I’ve gotten cheap aesop merch from china through eBay… so it’s probably a reseller issue. Scalpers gonna scalp

Paul Murphy (@PMurphy1978) reported@VirtuallyMarti @JoeMerrick They’ll inevitably end up on eBay for not too terrible prices but you probably know that. I got the Super Mario Yoshi Tree one for about £12.

doodlifts (@doodlifts) reported@seyong Imagine if everyone on the planet tried to sell their beanie babies into the available eBay offers at the same time. Understandably, there isn’t enough money to fulfill all those offers. So the fastest to do it will get the full price offers, then the rest will get the 2nd and third rate offers, this can continue until there is no money left. Luckily the bigger the market, the less of a problem this is, you can sell thousand of pokemon cards on eBay and have no effect on the “price” because there are so many bids on eBay. But with something more niche or new like fine art or an up and coming collectible, one sale can change the whole market, for better or worse!
