Pokemaam (@poke_maam) reportedSellers all be saying bc @eBay is buyer friendly. It is not! Sucks both ways, benefiting bad actors but not genuine issues. Cases Ive lost: - Seller shipped slab in envelope with no protection. Cracked slab arrive. Seller reviews in revent month had many complaints about cracked slabs. Screenshotted reviews and my own cracked slab. I lost. Apparently multiple complaints from many buyers dont matter to ebay. - Seller sent me a PSA 8 instead of PSA 9, opened a case, wrote to seller and seller said he would refund. Went dead. Window for refunds closed on the MiA. Wrote to ebay, says no refund even though wrong item sent. Im sure everyone on both the buyer and seller sides have their own ebay horror stories. So indeed, they are ready for disruption. Fees are less an issue if service is good. Often wonder if they have an actual human reviewing cases.

IMAYSELLIT (@imaysellit) reported@bkj_brad @yanxchick The fake card problem is honestly why I'm skeptical of eBay for anything graded. Between fake PSA certs and people pulling bait-and-switch on auctions, it's playing roulette with your money. Sellers eat 15% fees and still get burned by buyers sending empty boxes back.

Nicholas A. Pantano (@npantano_) reported@TheMagnifishit @THIS_TIME_X I 100% agree with you. My counter and entire point, is the scenario Cohen is drawing up only works if Ebay agrees he can bring them a ton of company value post merger. Because they are essentially bending the knee if the stock portion was post merger derived. And they turned him down, so it looks like they don’t believe he can bring that value right? So I’m just letting people know the reading the initial on paper proposal he doesn’t have the funds today.

Leo (@Leo_R_UK) reported@KaiXCreator 16gb - 24gb range. You don’t need an expensive machine to code. Install your coding assistant on a remote server. Have all your skills/tools/assets remote. This server shouldn’t be expensive either. Look on eBay, cheap HP i5 / i7 32gb (less that £150) You don’t need a powerful machine to use terminal!

I’mTheBaby (@Wheresdababy) reported@UPS Hello - I receive packages frequently from Amazon and USPS, and leave packages out daily for eBay pickup. Yesterday I had a package delivered fedex no problem yet my UPS packages were stolen within 1 hour of delivery. 1st time. Feels very targeted. DM me for more details.

mathieu malecot (@tragicslip) reported@treesonstumps @alt_w_v_g You can do ok as a buyer on ebay. It's sellers that have a problem, and slowly this bleeds quality buyers. Only the diligent and the scammers are good at using ebay's tools to shop smart.

Michio⚡ZEC (@michiokage) reportedhey @ebay fix your iOS app. It is succumbing to the repeat scroll bug. Same element is being inserted over and over with each scroll after a point

Jay Bee (@Mordin04) reported@Alyssandriaaa @TCGplayer I stopped using TCGplayer last year after eBay shut down their Syracuse facility.

Peter R Hann CFA, Goldbug Weirdo/Silver Freak (@PeterRHann1) reportedOk, I have to say it. I have issues with how Ryan Cohen has done things. The warrants are an example of that. But I do think he did spend considerable time planning out this Ebay proposal. Too many are laughing at him. This guy has a relationship with Carl Icahn. Do you not think Ryan had some deep thoughts on this with him? I'm sure multiple scenario analysis has been done. And for Chuck Gasbag to suddenly start talking positive about him and GME? Yeah, something is still coming.

TonguesOutGlassArt (@boroartgroyper) reported@2ray_degenemax @ahiychmpsm eBay is likely the least headache, but assume it will be opened by customs. If you have a bunch of trouble finding a good source I’ll happily hit a 7-11 and send you the whole line up, but private shipping is $$$ corporate is $, so eBay will probably be cheaper

Ecomint NEWS (@ecomintnews) reported🚨 DEVELOPING: GameStop CEO Ryan Cohen Escalates eBay Takeover Battle 🚨 Following the rejection of his $56 billion unsolicited bid, GameStop CEO Ryan Cohen is doubling down. In a formal letter to the eBay board, Cohen demanded that shareholders be given the final word on the $125-per-share cash-and-stock proposal. The bid, which eBay dismissed as "neither credible nor attractive," represents a significant premium over recent trading prices.

Vlad Green (@VladislavGreene) reported$GME My 2 cents about GME buying eBay. 50% cash 50% stock. If GME market cap $10B and Ebay's $40B, so it's 20/80 split, but as GME pays out 50% cash it bring us to 80/2 = 40%, so in the end 60/40. 60% GME shareholders and 40% eBay's in the new company. The stock portion is $27.75B (half of the $125 offer). Case 1 (basic): GME has 450000000 shares outstanding. To keep the 60/40 split GME need to issue 300000000 new shares to the eBay shareholders. $27.75B / 300000000 = $92.50 implied issuance price. Total after deal = 750000000 shares. This gives the NEW company $69.375B market cap and share price after deal = $92.50. Case 2 (diluted): Including the 144000000 Senior Convertible Notes + 59000000 Warrants = 651000000 total GME fully diluted shares. To keep the same 60/40 split GME needs to issue 434000000 new shares to eBay's people. $27.75B / 434000000 = ~$63.94 implied issuance price. Total after = 1085000000 shares. This gives the NEW company $69.375B market cap and share price = ~$63.94.

TheIronManWhoLaughs 🏴☠️🇺🇲 (@who_lols) reported@serenitynowhere @alt_w_v_g I sold an item once and the guy returned it just in time for the cut off and the item was not the same item that I had sold him. In order to fix the problem I was told that I had to contact his local police department because ebay would not get involved other than that. 1/2

Love is the answer 🧡 (@hivibz) reported@ryancohen I just read that post and it resonated with me. I used to sell on eBay in the early 2000’s. I’ve completely stopped. I just logged in to my old account which is still active. The fact that I used to use it a ton, I even had an ebay store, and have not logged in for a decade is indicative of a problem with eBay. By the way I know it’s somewhat unrelated, but PayPal has brutal customer service. I just wasted an hour on the phone with them this evening.

MarkMurrayBooks (@MarkMurrayBooks) reportedSometimes a post on X makes you think on things you never thought about before. I liked Gamestop. Now I like them even more. I've hated Ebay for many years. Now I know why. Thanks for breaking things down, @alt_w_v_g
