  @FlockMastaMon @CardPurchaser Happens on eBay sometimes too. I’ve gotten a negative review because a dude found a better deal on a card the next day and wanted a full refund, but I had already sent it to the post office and have a no returns policy. They like to take out operator error on the seller.

  Ebay keeps recommending me old Soviet atlases & maps. Can't help but feel like a broken sleeper agent that won't activate

  @WeebyRevy My old OG XBox and PS2 had their lasers break. At that point, I sold them for dirt cheap. I imagine these conversions are often-times broken units bought for pennies on the dollar from EBay.

  @eBay what is going on? As a seller I am wondering why it feels like eBay is trying to control us more and more. You are forcing us to send to an authenticator, the recent update was terrible to the point that sales have dropped?Customer service is impossible. What the hell @eBay

  @Catscollecttcg I’ve been using EBay since 2006 and haven’t ever had issues with sellers but then again I auto-select my sellers to be US/NA only when buying any TCGs even foreign language ones.

  @renoipgp @natsturner It’s not about the loophole existing because it is 100% fact how the system is set up. I’m sure Nat worded it wrong or spoke without understanding the eBay system itself. Again, eBay isn’t his company who controls what goes to authentication. If someone wins a bid. They’d have to ask seller to cancel order so they can repurchase. Only then they can change the address before they repurchase. Not sure what buyer in their right mind would do that? They’d also have to have their P.O. Box and everything set up before delivery occurs. As a seller you lose ebay protection. If the seller asks buyer for address to manually change it seller gets flagged hard as they are strict with it. Seller then loses every right and protection, if buyer asks for a refund eBay would process that automatically and seller is out. Seller could also put it under wrong category which wouldn’t trigger any AG but again they have zero protection and any refund question it would process and buyer be out. So no the system isn’t fundamentally broken. Just like @natsturner could’ve misspoke on it, you are picking and trying to find anyway to dig to justify the slamming PSA eBay and the AG program because you don’t fully understand it yourself. I’m not knocking you in any way at all for the article. Personally, I fully dislike defending PSA on anything ever. I just want to make sure anything like this is accurately talked about. Since 90% of hobby beefs and drama that blow up viral are based on assumptions and misunderstandings due to non factual information

  The crazier part is TCGPlayer is so much worse. I went back to ebay and it was relieving, but still a big problem. TCGplayer is like 2 weeks after you mark as shipped or sometning. On TCGPlayer I constantly ran into liquidity issues and had more money pending than liquid.

  @SeanieQdup @ShiningScience The story is real but from 2018, not recent. Jackson Oswalt (Memphis, TN) built a homemade fusor (inertial electrostatic confinement device) in his bedroom using eBay parts, inspired by a TED Talk. He achieved deuterium fusion at age 12 (technically, just before turning 13), earning a Guinness World Record as the youngest to do so. The FBI visited once with a Geiger counter to check for radiation leaks as a safety precaution—no raid, no issues found. The viral post and image sensationalize it; fusors like this are a known amateur science project, not "star power" fusion.

  @emergeofchance @yo3887 @real_lord_miles That's fair i mean I'm a collector myself and I don't give a **** about grading most of my stuff is scuffed and or broken but the ****** thing is that whenever your average joe finds that stuff in their basement they're gonna look up prices on ebay and not know the difference

  @XRPee1983 I've seen this seller a lot on eBay and whilst they do have some great items, they sell collectables at obscene prices I dont understand why they wont try to price it fairly even if its initially ridiculous like 25K. At least you can negotiate down You can haggle from $5 mill!
