  TWO USED EPYC ROMES. 768GB OF DDR4. ZERO GPUs. ONE BASEMENT RIG RUNNING DEEPSEEK V3 671B WITHOUT A DATACENTER'S PERMISSION. Nobody talks about this setup and I don't know why. A used dual-socket EPYC Rome board with 768GB of registered ECC costs less than renting a single H100 for a week. I paid $2,400 on eBay. Guy shipped it in a box that used to hold a microwave. Loaded ktransformers, pinned the NUMA nodes properly, and now DeepSeek V3 671B runs at 8-12 tokens per second on my basement floor. No cloud. No rate limits. No "your prompt violates our terms." No data leaving the room. Everyone assumes local AI means a wall of 3090s. It doesn't. MoE models only activate ~37B parameters per token, so memory bandwidth carries the run, not raw compute. Server RAM has plenty of both if you wire it right. The wild part: as datacenters swap Rome for Turin, this gear is basically being given away. What cost $40k in 2022 is $3k on eBay now. Meanwhile the models keep getting better. I'm not a sysadmin. I'm not an ML engineer. I watched three YouTube videos and read one Reddit thread. If I can do this in a basement, the "you need a datacenter" narrative is cooked.

  @Mario79L @LordCharizard33 Debatable, if print quality is terrible there is definitely levels to the "NM" even when pack fresh. Imo raw value should = psa 7 as that is the lowest NM grade Also with how people list raws on tcgplayer/ebay, theyre listing vastly different NMs

  I have sold over $12 million worth of high-end watches. Here’s the thing: I’m not in the watch business; I know nothing about watches. Hell, I don’t even wear a watch. This is a story of opportunity. Read along, and I can show you how I did it and how you can, too. I was buying consumer electronics returns from a company with which I had built up a ton of credibility over the years. I always bought everything they had. I always paid on time. I never complained about small problems. I knew the opportunity with them was good, and I didn’t want to screw it up. Opportunities handled well lead to more opportunities. After a few years of buying, I got a call from a guy in another division of this business. Let’s call him Bob. Bob: “Hey, John says you are reliable. We have a problem in another division, and I wonder if you would be interested in a different product line?” Me, as I utter the four most powerful words in my vocabulary: “How can I help?” It seems that Bob had lost a buyer of a unique product line: high-end watches. The company was worried about selling its customer returns to a new buyer. I wasn’t new. and I possessed a unique attribute: Trust I had put in the time, energy, and money to build a relationship with their consumer electronics division. Did I mention I know nothing about watches? I still don’t. But I figured I could learn. Step 1: Get the deal. The deals are the hardest thing to find. Money to buy and customers to sell to – easy. Well, easier. The challenge with this product line that I knew nothing about was that it was a firehose. An instant multi-million-dollar business that I had to open wide and take on with little knowledge. So what did I do? I went on eBay, naturally. I found every watch seller I could find and started reaching out to them. I spoke to 87 people before I got to one guy who didn’t think I was nuts. Dimitri had his partner fly out to my office the next day. I showed him some samples, and we agreed on a markup for my services. We shook hands on the deal. Dimitri sent a wire transfer, and I shipped him the product. We’ve done over $12M worth of business on that handshake. About that markup. Here’s another secret to success: let other people make money off you. Since I knew there was little risk, it was pretty passive, and the volume would be high, I didn’t need to make much on each item. I kept my take very small so Dimitri could put the time and effort into building a sustainable business. This allowed me to focus on my other businesses while this “side hustle” paid for my kid's private school, bought my cars, and more. The key takeaways here: Opportunities handled well lead to more opportunities. Finding the deal is the most important thing. The most powerful phrase in the world: How can I help?

  @Revampedneonpt @Jazwares @Aaron_Margolin It's been really hard for me too, I've had to go to eBay a couple of times and use the restock server to keep track of figure restocks since that's what I mainly collect, but the stock has gotten slightly better in my area even if it's just a little bit

  Yes, this coin is almost certainly a hoax / modern fantasy piece. Why It's Fake Design Issues: The portrait is crude and doesn't match known Roman coin styles. The lettering ("QUINTVS III" and "AVGVSTVS") is poorly executed and mixes elements that don't belong together on a single coin. Subject: "Quintus III" isn't a recognized Roman emperor or ruler. Roman coinage had strict, standardized designs for each emperor. Material & Wear: The "aged" look is artificial — typical of mass-produced replicas sold on eBay, Etsy, or tourist shops. Common Scam: Fake "rare Roman coins" are extremely common online. Real ancient coins have specific weight, die marks, and patina that experts can verify. Verdict: Not authentic. It's a modern reproduction or outright fantasy item made to look old.

  I got a few of the Chinese #PokemonTCG products recently, they have such cool stuff. My only issue is every plastic/acrylic clear thing seems to have major scratches on it. I tried on ebay from what seemed like a good seller and @Pokene_Pokemon but every product, giant scratches.

  Best Online Businesses To Start With $1,000 Or Less Think Big Minute #79 $1,000 starts every business on this list. The phone you're reading this on cost more. Most people waiting to start a business don't have a money problem. They have a permission problem, and the savings account is where they hide it. "When I save up enough" is the lie that keeps the job forever. Everything I have was built online, starting from about $4,000 to my name a few months after I quit my job. Nobody funded anything. The businesses had to pay for themselves, and they did. And online, the thousand dollars buys something different. No truck, no territory, no gas money. Your customer is anyone on earth with a card, the margins have no fuel bill in them, and what you build keeps selling while you sleep. Online is not the fast lane. A driveway business can be paid by Friday. Most of these take weeks or months to pay, because you're not walking up to demand that already exists on a street... you're building the thing that attracts it. The trade is worth it. The first dollar comes slower, and the ten thousandth comes easier. Five that work right now, with the real 2026 numbers. Flipping. The one exception to the slow start. This is cash the same week. What the money buys: inventory. The whole $1,000 is stock, and it recycles. Every sale puts a bigger bankroll back in your pocket for the next buy. The play is one sentence long. Buy underpriced things locally on Facebook Marketplace, where local pickup has zero selling fees, and sell them nationally on eBay, where the sold prices run higher. Flippers routinely buy at 40 to 70% below retail and clear $100 to $300 per item on the spread. One documented reseller pulled $47,000 in profit over 18 months sourcing from Marketplace alone. A Herman Miller chair bought for $75 sold for $385. Figure on $200 to $400 in month one while you learn what sells, $600 to $1,000 by month three, and $1,200 to $2,000 a month by month six at around ten hours a week. Full timers treating it like a real operation run $4,000 to $10,000 a month. The niche move: know one category cold. The winners aren't the people with the most cash. They're the ones who can look at a listing and know the real sold price before they buy. Check the comps first, every time, because fees and shipping turn a lazy 50% margin into 15%. And list everything within 48 hours of buying it. Inventory sitting unlisted in a garage is money you already spent doing nothing. Digital products. What the money buys: almost nothing. The laptop you own and platform fees. Gumroad takes 10%, Etsy takes 6.5% plus pocket change per listing. You build a template, a toolkit, a system once, and sell the same file forever. Established creators run $1,000 to $8,000 a month, committed beginners realistically reach $500 to $1,500 a month within six months, and the ceiling is stupid: Thomas Frank's Ultimate Brain template has done $760,000 on its own. The pricing ladder is well mapped. Simple single problem templates sell at $9 to $25, full systems at $29 to $69, and complete business toolkits at $99 to $199. Start in the middle. Underpricing signals junk and attracts the customers who complain the most and buy the least. And give one away. A free starter version builds your email list, and email subscribers buy at 5 to 10 times the rate of cold traffic. The free product is the ad. The list is the asset behind the asset. The niche move: build for one profession. A client onboarding system for wedding photographers beats a "productivity template" every single time, because the buyer feels like it was built for them. It was. Then update your best sellers a few times a year and tell past buyers, because updates drive reviews, repeat purchases, and a catalog that compounds instead of rots. Local lead websites. What the money buys: a domain, hosting, and a simple site. One documented tree care site took about 15 hours and $500 to build. It has paid its owner $2,000 a month for over eight years. That's $192,000 from one boring website. This is digital real estate. You build a site for one service in one town, rank it on Google, and a local business pays you $500 to $3,000 a month for the calls it produces. The demand side explains the rent: nearly half of all Google searches carry local intent, and the average cost of a lead across industries runs about $198. A site handing a plumber thirty calls a month isn't an expense. It's the cheapest employee he has. This is my home turf... SEO built everything I have. And in 2026, Ai answers are eating informational search traffic, but when someone types "tree removal near me," Google still shows the map and real local sites. Local intent is the lane Ai hasn't taken, which is exactly why the rent checks still clear. Be honest about the clock. Ranking takes 6 weeks to 6 months depending on the town and the niche, which is why you build in suburbs where the competition is thin and the ranking comes fast. The sell, though, is the easiest in this post, because the hard part is already done. You're not pitching a promise. You're showing a ranked site and a ringing phone and asking who wants the calls. The niche move: boring home services, one service per site, one suburb at a time. Tree removal, roofing, pressure washing. Nobody stops at one property. Five to ten rented sites is a serious recurring paycheck, and every site gets faster to build than the last. Courses and paid communities. What the money buys: the platform. Skool runs $9 to $99 a month. The actual product is the years of reps you already paid for. An analysis of the top 1,000 paid communities on Skool found the median membership charges $49 a month. At $49, a hundred members is $4,900 a month, and two hundred is a $10,000 month, recurring. Courses stack on top at $50 to $500 each. I run a paid community myself, and recurring revenue from people you're actually helping win is about as good as business gets. The order of operations matters more here than anywhere else on this list. Audience first, then the offer. I built my audience before I built anything to sell it, and that sequencing is the reason any of it worked. Post about the thing you know every day. Help people for free in public. Do that long enough and the first members are already waiting when you open the doors. And the game after launch is keeping people. A course gets finished. A community gets lived in. Members renew for as long as the room stays worth standing in, so the real job is making sure it does... show up, answer, bring in wins, repeat. The niche move: a narrow promise. Teach the specific thing you have actually done, to the specific person trying to do it next. The market pays for reps it can't get anywhere else, and it can smell the difference instantly. Productized services. What the money buys: a simple site with a price on it. Delivery gets paid after the customer does. This is a service turned into a product: one deliverable, one flat price, subscription billing, no proposals, no sales calls. DesignJoy sells unlimited design at $5,995 a month, runs as a one person operation, and clears seven figures a year. 24Slides redesigns presentations from $299 a month. Bean Ninjas packaged bookkeeping into three tiers and did $100,000 in its first eight months. Flat pricing is why it sells. A business owner comparing agencies has to sit through calls and wait on proposals. Your offer has a price on the page and a buy button, and plenty of buyers choose the company that let them purchase at 11pm without talking to anyone. And you are not the one doing the work. You own the offer, the brand, and the pipeline, and a small team you manage handles delivery. The margin is a spread you control: price the offer, pay for delivery, keep the difference. Entire agencies run on this exact structure, selling the package up front and routing the work to production teams behind it. Productized services built my first company. The niche move: one deliverable for one industry, with the scope defined in writing and defended like the business depends on it, because it does. Scope creep is the profit leak in every service company that ever died. The narrower the promise, the easier the sale and the smoother the delivery, because every job looks like the last one. The thousand dollars buys something different online. Every pick on this list is a thing you own. Inventory, a product catalog, a ranked website, a community, an offer. Not one of them bills by the hour, and every one of them can grow without asking your calendar for permission. That's the trade online makes: the margins and the reach go up, and the fight moves to attention. Because nobody finds any of these by accident. The local version of business wins by showing up. The online version wins by showing up everywhere, constantly. List daily. Post daily. Publish weekly. Pick one channel and be loud on it for months. The people winning in every one of these categories are simply outproducing everyone else in them, and most people quit publishing right before the compounding starts. The other failure pattern isn't picking wrong. It's picking three. Every business on this list works, and none of them work on one third effort. Give one of them six months of daily reps and ignore the other four until the first one pays. And every one of these is sellable. There are entire marketplaces where lead sites, communities, product catalogs, and productized companies change hands every day, listed and bought like the assets they are. You are not building income. You are building equity that pays you monthly on the way up. If you want cash this week, start flipping. If you like building something once and selling it forever, make digital products. If you want rent checks from Google, build lead sites. If you have reps worth teaching, open the community. If you want a real company with a team under it, productize a service. You have spent $1,000 on dumber things than a business you own. Pick one. Put something up for sale this week. Think Big
