BobbyB (@revzcycles) reported@monsteracards @_bismack_ Through ebay? I've tried stamps in the past & always get lost. Buying postage through ebay @2oz and no issues

Dice (@honeydice_) reported@WestCoast_Goodz Man, “summer slow down,” “q1 slow down,” “dying platform.” I’ve had to deal with people telling me their eBay sales are dying every season, every month, every year, since I started but my sales have kept going up. It’s definitely the platform, not their fault.

Venturian Capital 🗽🇮🇪🇺🇸 (@SittingBear0921) reported$GME Q1 2026 top-line earnings read: GameStop delivered a strong quarter, but the details matter. • Net sales: $835.3M, up 14% YoY • Gross profit: $340.3M • Gross margin: 40.7%, up from 34.5% • SG&A: $201.6M, down from $228.1M • Operating income: $143.3M, vs. a $10.8M loss last year • Net income: $389.6M, vs. $44.8M last year • Adjusted net income: $179.3M • Adjusted EBITDA: $163.4M • Free cash flow: $333.1M The revenue mix is where the story gets interesting: • Hardware & accessories: $333.7M, down from $345.3M • Software: $152.7M, down from $175.6M • Collectibles: $348.9M, up from $211.5M Collectibles were the growth engine, rising roughly 65% YoY and becoming the largest reported sales category. Balance sheet/capital allocation also became central: • Cash, marketable securities, digital assets, derivative assets/collateral, and related receivables: roughly $9.7B • Long-term debt: roughly $4.166B • New discretionary share repurchase authorization: $2B through June 2029 • Unrealized gain on derivative assets tied to eBay exposure: $268.4M My read: This was a legitimately strong quarter, but not a clean retail-only earnings beat. GameStop showed real operating improvement through better margins, lower expenses, positive operating income, and strong free cash flow. But reported net income was also helped by investment-related gains, and the revenue growth was heavily dependent on collectibles. $GME is no longer just a meme stock or a legacy retailer. It is becoming a cash-rich special situation where the next phase depends on management’s ability to turn the balance sheet, buyback optionality, collectibles growth, and capital allocation strategy into durable shareholder value.

SecondSonSolutions (@SecondSonInc) reported@40kWorldview I can’t justify the money personally even though I COULD afford it. Priorities. What I do it hunt on eBay for good deals (any) and resell them (fix if needed) and use that money to buy ones I actually want. I’ve accumulated a decent collection for probably close to 0$

sprint (@sspriint) reportedHe spent $400 on 12 broken phones and turned them into a machine that prints money while he sleeps. not a metaphor. a literal shelf of cracked Pixel 2s earning him cash 24/7. here is the whole build. he buys dead Android phones in bulk off eBay. cracked screens, trashed batteries, dead speakers. the more broken, the cheaper. $350 for twelve. $50 more for chargers and a hub. that is the entire startup cost. then he loads each one with apps that pay you to do nothing. apps that pay you to swipe up when an ad plays on the lock screen. apps that pay you just to sit there collecting data in the background. apps that pay you to run games passively. every phone gets its own Google account. its own phone number for verification, rented for a dollar. then they just run. on a shelf. all day, every day. 36 cents a day per phone. twelve phones. $129 a month from a pile of e-waste he plugged into a wall. the farm pays for itself in four months. everything after that is pure profit, and he just keeps stacking phones. people are out here trading 8 hours a day for a paycheck while one guy built a system that earns whether he is awake or not. that is the whole shift happening right now. the people winning are not working harder. they are wiring up systems that run without them. that is exactly the kind of build people are tearing apart inside @NeuroClubAi. not watching demos. learning to actually wire the machine and let it run. stop trading your hours for money. start building the thing that earns while you sleep.

AJ |#1 CORNELIA STREET FAN| 🐍✒️ (@AJM1997AJM) reported@cassymcollins @Eras_Resale I really hope they can come through for me and help fix this! I even checked eBay as a last resort and they are $150+ 😭 scalpers are insane! It’s been about 35 minutes since they escalated my email, but I don’t want to send another in case it puts me at the bottom of the queue!

🐾 Beta 🐾 (@Beta_Protogen) reportedlove how ebay just casually stole $40 from me because of something literally completely out of my control. ******** do you mean the carrier losing my package halfway through transit is a *me* issue that i’m somehow supposed to magically resolve? i’m not a ******* postal worker

Space ☆ Bruce (@spacebruce) reported@netakoh_ A kid I was working with was fixated on buying a particular camera that a youtuber mentioned was their first, they tracked it down, parent bought it on ebay, and then they hated that it at most did low bit rate 720p and was bested by any modern phone. idk. Took nice stills.

Larry Moore (@LarryMoore_57) reported@marketswithmay The problem is he can’t duplicate the EBay shenanigans every quarter.

Paul Branham (@BoilerPaulie) reported@ValueAddedRS Very interesting indeed. I’ve never even considered sending a card straight to PSA from eBay, even though I’ve seen it. That has always seemed like a surefire way to tank your chances of getting a PSA 10 by trusting someone who potentially doesn’t understand the process to send it in for you. Even fingerprints or dust on the card can ruin your grade. As someone who has bought hundreds of trading cards over eBay, I’m not trusting someone else to wipe down my cards before they get graded. I’ll do it myself.

lee coussons (@cuzzyok) reported@eBay how can you get away with putting my funds on hold £50 because you couldn’t take 12p from my bank? you only wanted 12p because someone bought my collection only item in error and asked for a refund which i granted but ebay kept part of there fees back? investigators needed?
