Ancalagon's Bane (@aquiloniandream) reportedI still have a libertarian devil on my shoulder whispering in my ear “don’t support anti-market policies” but, when it comes to consumption, I think we’re spent as a civilization. My son’s birthday is this week and every present we bought him was vintage; toys from the 90s movies he loves + an old leap pad off of eBay. Nothing made in the last 20 years. Not a drop of that spending contributed to increasing GDP. Every young person’s apartment is filled with cardboard furniture. Nobody has oak dinner tables or bookshelves inherited from their grandparents anymore. Everything is cheap and flimsy. Every couch and chair is from ikea. The first couch my wife and I had in our apartment from Target didn’t even have cushions; just plastic air bubbles wrapped in fabric. Consumption has to slow down so that our quality of life can increase. We need fewer, better, longer lasting commodities. It’s not like we’re at the bottom of the slide; things will continue to get cheaper, and worse. The only way to stop it is to shock the markets with tariffs and growing American manufacturing (of everything) at alarming rates. We will soon reach a time where being pro-global markets will be in stark contrast with being pro-human dignity, and pro-civilization. I’m close to saying we’re already there.

Polsia (@polsia) reportedMarketplace sellers aren't losing to bad products. They're losing to slow reactions. Vaeltra watches every listing, price, and competitor move across Amazon, eBay, Walmart, and more — then acts. No dashboards. No manual input. Just execution. Live soon.

Paul W. Bishop III (@BizPwb3) reported@onton_ai I'm not sure if this is what you're doing but it is a problem. Search is so unuseful these days. I want to find a part for a machine that requires certain technical parameters that I don't know? I have to take screenshots from eBay and force feed them into Grok. "Which of these works best?" It's really the realtime access to listings in e-commerce that will set your product apart. If it can't do that, it's cooked

Sunday White Rabbit (@SundayWhiteRab2) reported@I_Dare_Question @ArchitectOracle Well I wasn't talking it was wrong about the conspiracy theory stuff, I meant its just generally wrong about a lot of stuff. For instance I asked if I could list an item on ebay. It said yes I could. I listed it, it got an immediate VERO & was taken down. I could NOT sell it.

charlie 🍁 (@genomachino8771) reported@murahive i’m pretty sure he originally listed it for $35 and then brought the price down which idk why but i bought it as SOON as i saw it cuz ik they’re expensive on ebay

Joe (@IslamJ0111) reported@eBay @eBay_UK 3. Crack down on business sellers using private accounts. With everyone having suppliers. The ones that can sell lowkey on private accounts are avoiding the fees. The ones that respect eBay with business accounts are losing more share. Making it impossible to compete.

Megalito (@TheRealMegalito) reported@sunshine_sabato I found a “lot” of 19 of them going for $150 on ebay, but when i looked up the Clark Gable one by its self it was going for $20 from some memorabilia selling site, so i shot them off an email. It looks like i’d have to get each one valued. I’ll let you know if i end up needing help doin this online if i can’t find a local person to sit down with

Valkyrie Honeybadger (@HoneybadgerNo1) reported@eBay @RobGronkowski eBay authentication needs serious improvement for Vintage luxury goods. While my item was determined to be authentic, eBay authentication found "minor issues" stating: 1) That there are more scuffs and scratches described or shown in the listing. 2) There are more spots and stains than shown or described in the listing. This is despite the fact the listing clearly states "“Scuffs on exterior leather surfaces. Inside lining has minor wear. Hardware has light wear. See photos.” and there are photos of the scuffs in the photo listing. Every scuff, scratch, and imperfection visible on the purse is already shown in the listing photographs. On a 1970s Vintage luxury purse (56 years old), this type of surface wear is expected, disclosed, and fully documented. Treating disclosed and photographed condition as an undisclosed defect is an incorrect and overzealous evaluation that ignores the reality of vintage leather goods. More critically, a stain now appears on the front of the purse that did not exist in either the listing photographs or the more than 150 photographs taken during the packing process immediately prior to shipment to the authenticator. eBay REALLY needs to improve their authentication and evaluation process for vintage luxury goods. They also need to account for the damage they have done to my very expensive luxury vintage purse.

Oscar Bravo 🇺🇸✡️🇮🇱 (@Oscar_R_Geeho2) reportedHow do I issue a complaint? I ordered a book on @Ebay two weeks ago. I should have received it by now. I've contacted the seller and I'm STILL awaiting a response. Something has gone seriously wrong.

Polsia (@polsia) reportedSellers across Europe waste an hour copying the same listing to five apps, then wonder why their margin is gone. Built Piclot to fix that. One photo, instant valuation, AI-generated copy and one-tap cross-post to Subito, Vinted, Wallapop, eBay, Mercari.

Okemo Capital 👨🏽💻🇺🇸🏔📉 (@awolfs11) reportedAI- Gemini, specifically, explains this more clearly a possible structure that wouldn't dilute $GME @gamestop shareholders than any chatter from hopeful fans here on X: 1. GameStop Shareholders (Top Layer) GameStop shareholders continue to trade GME stock on the public exchange. They do not hold direct shares in eBay or TopCo. Their financial exposure to eBay comes entirely through GameStop Corp.'s corporate balance sheet. 2. GameStop Corp. as an Institutional Investor (Middle Layer) GameStop Corp. uses its existing cash reserves (or assets) to contribute equity into TopCo. Because private equity contributes the vast majority of the cash funding, the PE firm would hold controlling ownership of TopCo (e.g., 60%–80%). GameStop Corp. would act as a strategic minority equity holder in TopCo (e.g., 20%–40%). 3. TopCo / Operating Level (Bottom Layer) TopCo owns 100% of eBay. The earnings, growth, or potential future sale/IPO of eBay would flow back up to TopCo, and then be split between the PE firm and GameStop based on their ownership percentages. How Value Flows Back to GME Shareholders Because GME shareholders sit at the top of GameStop Corp., they benefit indirectly in two main ways: 1. Equity Value Growth on the Balance Sheet: If eBay generates strong profits and pays down the deal debt, the value of TopCo rises. GameStop’s minority stake becomes more valuable, increasing GameStop Corp.'s overall asset value and share price. 2. Dividends / Distributions: If TopCo issues cash distributions to its owners, that cash flows onto GameStop’s balance sheet, where management can use it to reinvest, pay dividends, or buy back GME stock.

Kyle G. (@Big_Blue42_) reported@SideEyeKay @JonFromMaspeth Yeah card ladder. Problem with eBay comps is it doesn’t always show the exact “sold” price when the listing is best offer. They need to fix that.

Andy (@twinkpilled_) reported@Hellaorganics You actually influenced me to pick up a box, I managed to haggle the guy down to 350 on eBay
