  @carson_macedo @WorldofOutlaws Within 3 hours of them going on sale they were being listed on eBay. That is the issue. Scalpers ruin everything.

  @pokemondealsuk @AdamChambez2 You missed the point…. Scalpers are using bots. They don’t queue for 1 box and then sell a box online. This whole scalper mentality thing is getting boring. People need to start understating how bots work. They buy up ALL of the online stock in seconds. Stop calling people who are waiting in line for 1 ETB scalpers. It’s ******* stupid. It’s victim mentality. “I didnt get a box so everyone else that did is a scalper” opening 1 box before selling it doesn’t stop BOTS. These game stores are part of the issue as they resell on the secondary market for above msrp. Stop acting like they are doing a good thing. Check out their eBay accounts and the. You will realise the only scalpers are people with distribution access or bots. They are the problem!!!

  @EepyEwpert it depends! If you were getting tracking before and now you're not, that is an issue. If you haven't had a tracking number this whole time, they probably sent the package without a number. I would still probably file something with ebay or reach out to the seller because 1/2

  I get asked a lot how it’s profitable to sell $20 items on eBay when shipping keeps going up. Let me break down a recent flip. Bought two kids Timex watches on Woot August 4th for $5.99 each. Just sold one today for $23. Math Breakdown: Sold: $23 Cost: $6.50 Shipping: $6 Fees: $3 Promo: $1 Profit: $6.50 That’s 100% ROI on a fast-moving item. “But it’s only $6…” So ******** what. Do it over and over again.

  @thatsKAIZEN Tariffs are not bad they are Great . The problem is that consumers are not happy to pay them. You have so many small businesses that employ people here and try to make money, but because people from China either make copies of those products and just drop them here, or whatever else happens, it creates a difficult environment. When tariffs are really implemented, I know for a fact that multiple people made more money because the shipping was on point for them. We had the de minimis tariffs, which meant everything under $100 entered this country free from Temu and others. This is the problem with tariffs that people do not understand. You have people in America who design board games, puzzles, T-shirts, and a bunch of other stuff. These are small businesses that feed their families and employ a couple of people, and they are all over the country. We are still the second-biggest manufacturer after China. People in China do well, but they don't do anything; another American grabs a product, sends it to China, and says, "Make a copy of that, we're going to sell it." Even if we are the second-biggest manufacturer in the world, if the guy cannot sell it in America, China just stops dropping it on Amazon, eBay, or whatever. Look at Amazon: how many products are from China? They just ship them to Amazon, and they sell them cheap, even after Amazon fees and everything else. You have Alibaba and all those other sites. A lot of people do not understand this because they are only looking at whether their laptop or their TV is going to go up in price. But there are other things that are made in this country things that should and could very easily be made in this country. Instead, you have all these people working gig jobs, the Ubers and the delivery apps. You know how many delivery apps we have? Half the country uses them, and the other half works for them. Nobody makes money, but there are no other jobs. You think people don't want to work a normal nine-to-five job at a factory? It's not like a sweatshop back in the day; factories are not like that anymore. People do not understand what this "Chinese special" is, where they can bring anything into this country below $100 with no fees, nothing. All this junk was poured into this country. And if you are an American company and you want to make it in China using more or less slave labor because you want the cheap stuff, that's on you. You should be paying for that if you don't hire Americans. We can make these products in this country. Some Department of Labor regulations in certain states are over the board, meaning they just don't let people make money properly. That is why you cannot hire them; they all end up working for Uber, and Uber just pays millions of dollars every month in Department of Labor fines while people continue to work on 1099s. But that is a different story. Tariffs may or may not reduce the economy, but people who don't understand manufacturing don't understand the benefit of tariffs. Most of the people in this country are employed by small businesses, and those businesses can employ more people in steady jobs where you don't have to sit for 14 hours in a car, six hours a day, waiting for the next job to deliver food or drive somebody around, making no money and killing your car, basically bringing its value to zero. People do not understand how good tariffs are just for that just to create more jobs in small businesses. If you are not a manufacturing business, you just cannot comprehend how much money is lost by small businesses because of Chinese junk or copies. They cannot take the million-dollar lawsuits, and it is incredible how people don't understand that. Tariffs are very important. That is why every country has them; not only do they make money on it, but they protect their manufacturing. Look what happened in Europe. They allowed Chinese cars in, and look how many sales they lost. Look how much sales they lost in other countries. VW now had to shut down their plants. Are you kidding me?

  @PabloGRadio Exactly that proves your point. Trust me , eBay is very easy to deal with when you're a buyer with a complaint. It's why I drafted that up for you. So you have evidence and just cut down on the hassle. You don't have to use mine but do something similar

  Moons Card Shop (@moonscardshop) reported 18 minutes ago

  @craig_vent94132 @Pittsburgh1Pete That is usually where it shows up first. Card money is the most discretionary money there is, so the hobby feels a squeeze months before anyone writes an article about it. Slow eBay is a leading indicator, not a Pokemon problem.

  @ScottyUncle I’m torn, Unc! The listing was final sale, no returns. Accurately described and I know it will pass eBay authentication no problem. I just don’t want the headache of them siding with the buyer somehow after the fact.

  @StevenxTCG I remember reading about it when doing flash cards with a law school friend but can't find the specific case online. not sure that bodes well for my statement lmao. but ultimately, it comes down to the commercial code and ebay contract language. 1/?

  @BreakerCulture Pumpers gotta pump while they can Also, there's some heavy shilling going on as well that @eBay and their "Ai" are having trouble detecting Sent screen shots and relists of items that "sold" to a 90% bid activity buyer (bid on 150 items with one seller and every one this account won was relisted as a BIN) and @eBay said "we found nothing wrong" lol...

  @PokeTCGAlerts The problem is half the people complaining about the market are the ones buying on whatnot and ebay streams, ordering pokerev packs and helping fund the problem.
