  BigWerms LLC - Tim (@bigwerms) reported 2 minutes ago

  @Ob1JohnKenob1 @eBay ESE claims can be filed by the seller. Never had an issue getting money back on these scenarios.

  So I guess @eBay has no problem pointing me to a screen that loops and doesn't let me contact support, but seems fine with scammers on the website. My first time using ebay and I'm stuck dealing with someone trying to screw me about. Now I know why I haven't used ebay...

  @WaxMetrix @eBay Why PSA? Why can’t you fix this simple issue? What is the holdup? How much more tone deaf can you be to complaints about this simple issue?

  @RRHand808 @nalaknip Switcheroo with their broken one is the ultimate evil move. I avoid ebay for anything easily broken or valuable. So it's kind of useless really

  @PeterB585337060 @Rainmaker1973 Yeah - but we got people interested in "Retro Tech" nowadays. Frankly a good % of flat screens can be repaired if no visible damage (cat knocked it over, broken screen) pretty cheaply and FAR less dangerously...still ONLY a pro should. But everyone just buys new. CRT's are more likely to knock you across the room and/or burn off a tiny hunk of flesh than kill you. But some people have weak hearts and it's at the edge of the voltage/types that can cause a heart attack. I don't want authorities going around trying to destroy them if some person does a stupid... CRT's are getting a market back but most/all the places to make new ones have been shut down. Usually, they CAN be repaired a few times to working before dying. Not going to list the signs/solutions here I'd type a book. Again better to try to recycle them to a pro or if into Retro stuff oneself pay to have a legit tech look at it. The last models were giant ones, 32 inch and higher, total dream for kids who had N64s and Dreamcasts to play with. Worth a few $ for a diagnostic then repair if feasible. AND if they find a pile in an estate sale or something, check they are working, might make decent $ on Ebay and make some people happy. Myself I like playing ATARI on a GIANT Flatscreen TV. My Aunt had a projection screen and warned me and other relatives NOT to put the Atari into it - said it'd wreck it and we'd have to mow her lawn and do YEARS of chores to make up for it... And we respected her so we never tried it. Now a flatscreen BIGGER than her $8K setup (NOT adjusted for inflation) is not $400 in my rural big box stores during Black Friday/Christmas... And yes I play ANCIENT games on it! And newer ones. There's some suck like I did play with lightgun games but... But otherwise I do NOT idolize the past though I have fond memories of it. ----Again TL/DR... 1 - let a PRO with experience and the burns/scars to prove it risk his A$$ on it and be PAID for it. 2 - You can FIX most CRTs a few times 3 - I hope there's a retro market like how people purchase NEW LPs (plastic sound music discs) and get NEW music made in LP, Cassette, Mini-Disc format for the niche... Not a "Full return" but a solid mini niche.

  @GBNEWS Maybe if charity shops didn’t price their items so high they wouldn’t have to close down. The charities also sell lots on eBay so probably they no longer want to deal with the basic mundane stuff

  @snacks_fruity2 Will Gamespot by ANY/ALL old games? I imagine you'd have trouble selling many of those games for ANY PRICE if you listed them on someplace like Ebay? I considered getting rid of all my old consoles/games/accessories a while ago, but all anyone wanted was the SNES stuff.

  Your competitors reprice constantly. You can't. So you either lose the sale or lose the margin. Built PriceLeap to fix that. AI agent monitors Amazon, Shopify, eBay and adjusts your prices in real time — within your margins, with full audit trails. No black box. No guesswork.

  @MandarinGobi @Ob1JohnKenob1 @eBay Haven’t had a single issue as a buyer until this last month and a half. TCGP and eBay 🤨

  Tech2000 💿 (Blake Powers) (@ucegotthejuce) reported 15 minutes ago

  @TechnicallyTee The problem is this: You buy a game physically and you don’t like it, you can sell it. You buy a game physically that your friend doesn’t have, you can take it to their house and put it in his console to play. You buy a game digitally you can’t do either of those. You can buy a 3 year old game on ebay or at GameStop for $20 or less, without a disc version this gives the digital storefront the opportunity to keep the price as high as they want it to be for as long as they want it to be because you literally have no choice but to buy it there. When a game inevitably gets delisted from digital storefronts and there’s no discs, how will that game ever be played again once the internet on your PS6 quits working in 20 years? (Example: If Spider-Man Shattered Dimensions never had a disc and only was digital and got delisted on PS3, how would anyone ever play it again?) NOT TO MENTION, the people that DO already have a bunch of PS4 and PS5 discs would have to completely re-purchase their entire library for those two consoles digitally if the PS6 ships without a disc drive.

  @Nortier Psa also controls the hobby market I find it very weird that as soon as they shut down all these service levels all of sudden every seller on eBay is selling every Psa card for 2x times or 3x times of comp prices I even saw some sellers have their slabs at 4x times of comps

  @BlixkGod @Gumidess Well downloading some games gives you the whole game locally. In those instances, you digitally bought physical media (seeing the same is physically written in your hard drive instead of having physical permissions to enter a server) the no disk thing is really their "yellow ebay

  AMERICAN MAKER IS BUYING BROKEN XBOXES FOR $187 AND TURNING THEM INTO A 16GB GDDR6 AI FARM ON HIS KITCHEN TABLE One kitchen. One floral tablecloth. Six gutted consoles. Xbox Series X APU. AMD Zen 2 8-core. RDNA 2, 12 TFLOPS. 16GB GDDR6 unified per box. $187 broken on eBay, one blue Ethernet cable each. Most devs drop $479 on a single RTX 4060 Ti 16GB and stop there. He gutted six dead consoles for $1,122 total and got six times the VRAM. Pause at 0:03 — a $500 Microsoft SoC sitting next to a coffee cup on a floral tablecloth. The AI moat is a dead console and a screwdriver. Microsoft built a $499 inference node and thought it was a game machine. Full teardown in the video below.

  Wow is the @FirewallaLLC East Coast warehouse slow. It's been 1 week since I've ordered and I still don't have anything but a tracking number that says USPS doesn't have my package. I'm not expecting Amazon speeds but the 3PL they're using isn't it when I've bought things on eBay that have already arrived from farther away in the same time.
