Zubiqo (@zubiqo) reported🚨 NEW: US-Iranian Tech CEO Arrested For Supplying Iran's Nuclear Program Jamshid Ghomi, the CEO of a Tehran-based technology firm, was arrested Wednesday for allegedly funneling sensitive American networking and security equipment directly to Iran’s military and nuclear facilities. Prosecutors claim he operated a massive money laundering network to bypass strict US sanctions and finance a lavish California lifestyle. His company, Faraz Pardaz Rayaneh, allegedly supplied critical equipment to Iran’s Atomic Energy Organization and the Ministry of Defense over an eight-year period. Ghomi laundered more than $15 million into American bank accounts and construction escrows, falsely reporting the illicit funds as a foreign inheritance. The 63-year-old executive utilized personal eBay and PayPal accounts to make over 400 purchases of computer networking equipment, routing the shipments through intermediaries in the United Arab Emirates. Federal prosecutors are now actively attempting to seize Ghomi’s massive $35 million mansion in Newport Beach, California, which was largely funded by foreign wire transfers. This high-profile arrest exposes severe vulnerabilities in global supply chains, revealing how hostile foreign programs can acquire restricted technology through basic e-commerce workarounds. It also marks a significant escalation in the ongoing enforcement of sweeping sanctions against Iran's manufacturing and defense sectors. Are current international export controls completely broken, or will massive asset seizures like this finally deter intermediary smuggling networks? Source: Justice Department

Eric Flood (@EricFlo19671974) reported@esherifftv Theres this wierd stigma to motherhood ive noticed. When I was in for my A&P one of my instructors had a stay at home wife. Granted she ran their ebay page. She quit telling people about the mom part and said she ran a business from the home because they looked down on her for it

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.

ThatTrippyArt (@TrippyAiArt) reported@jrtradez777 @bankboy24 Nope...I still don't see the issues? Questions like this come with running your own buisness and an eBay shop is no different

Big Sky (@campx022) reported@slabfactory_ty @Voodoo_TCG People who don’t realize eBay doesn’t show the best offer accepted is the issue, not using eBay as comps. If people aren’t looking up sales on 130 Point or Card Ladder to get the accurate sale, they are they problem.

OnlyCharizard (@OnlyCharizard) reported@BenCham63173153 @FeistSportsCard Correct, anyone paying more in fees is Below Standard or promoting their listing too much. As usual eBay is not the problem, its the ignorance of its users.

DinDjarin (@TheWheyThisIs) reported@DanielW40094974 @Python0o Thank you for the response Daniel! Will you please keep us updated on what ebay will do to resolve this issue? I’m interested to know what that process looks like for sellers experiencing the same dispute.

✨rachie✨ (@RachiesArt) reported@stonershelb eBay tbh!! As long as the seller has good reviews I’ve never had issues and it’s usually fast shipping

Stay Predictable (@staypredictable) reported@TheodorTheta @JonFairbourne They don’t affect short interest if they use options to hedge. When viewing the price action since May 4 of eBay and GME, you will notice GME (acquirer) is pushed down while EBay is still retaining their gains. Arbitrage desks frequently target acquisitions

rnewton (@rnewton7777) reportedPeople are tired of hearing these things, but I must emphasize them always. - I don't know what is going to happen. - I am always wrong. - All models are wrong, but some are useful. - Please make good decisions for you. - I can't know what those decisions are. - GME probably isn't for everybody (it is stressful). - None of this is financial advice ever. - I am desperately trying to learn. - Give generously. - Love always. Especially the haters! If I missed any of the disclaimers, please remind me in the comments! This is the weekly chart which has been extremely helpful for me personally. I only have a few indicators on the chart. #1 The "Cash per Share" floor. For anybody that followed the videos, coming up with this was rather accidental. We noticed the stock continually coming back to a line on the sheet, once per quarter. So this model was developed and refined based on that observation. Of the various models made, it has been the most consistent. I am eager to see the 10Q to update the figure shown but with the company release and ignoring the eBay position, this increases the theoretical floor quite substantially. Note that it is just a theoretical model, but I want to emphasize that I personally do look to periodic returns to this level, thus the very large buying I engaged in the last two weeks sub $22. I plan to personally respect this theory again and people should know that. So I am bullish but limited bullish based on this pattern. But this pattern can certainly break. So trade it at your own risk. *Notice I have some forecasting on the chart for future quarters. This assumes similar profits. If the warrants fall off for any reason the denominator drops and the line moves up 13% or more. #2 Bollinger Bands and Stoch RSI. You can see the periodicity here. Do we repeat the pattern and move up to the top of the bands now with Stoch RSI moving from 30 to 60? We'll see, but again, trade at your own risk. #3 Kitty PMO but on the 1-week with his 55-period SMA. This flipped bullish as he returned in April 2024 and flipped bearish with the second bond offering in June 2025. To flip bullish again what you would want to see is the SMA (green line at the moment) bottom out and then turn upward. Then you'd want to see the PMO (pink line) cross over the signal (blue line) and all 3 move upward. So optimal formation is: PMO over Signal over SMA and all 3 facing up. We literally have the inverse of that right now so maximum bearish. But it is always maximum bearish right before the cross. I don't know if/when a bullish cross on the weekly PMO will happen but that's something I keep watching extremely closely. Because it only happens every few years and when it does, the stock rips violently. I don't want to be selling CCs personally into that event, but people should do whatever they think is best for them. I hope something hear is helpful. In summary, please make good choices for you. I run a fairly complex trade on this thing that tries to respect what I consider the short side's target (cash per share floor) while being bullish in a limited respect short term while very bullish long term. I am constantly evaluating the technicals and fundamentals to see if I need to adjust strategy. And even with all that being said, I am absolutely terrible at forecasting the thing as well as trading the thing. But hopefully folks following along can appreciate that you really don't have to be very good at either to do well here. You do have to be pretty courageous, though, no matter how you approach it. Most importantly, - Christ is King!

513SportsCurse (@MKSportsCards77) reported@Pittsburgh1Pete Same issue I’m going through but I have no eBay store, only an X account. Seems like a lot of work for minimal return. I mean what do I do with 500+ Stars of MLB from the last several years. Is there actually a market. Or just stick with player lots…and does that work?

Girl In AI (@girlinAI) reported🚨A FIRED SALES MANAGER ASKED CLAUDE HOW TO MAKE MONEY FROM HOME. One month later, he reportedly made $10,765. No employees. No office. No fancy setup. Just AI tools and a simple service business. Here's the workflow: → Claude finds opportunities, researches markets, and identifies trends → Google Omni helps create video content → eBay is used to advertise and sell services The idea wasn't to build the next startup. It was to solve a problem businesses already pay for. In his first month, he reportedly completed 16+ client projects for: ✅ Course creators ✅ Marketing agencies ✅ Freelancers ✅ Startups ✅ AI companies ✅ Bloggers ✅ TikTok creators His minimum project price? $400. The interesting part isn't the income. It's how simple the model is: 1. Use AI to identify demand 2. Use AI to create deliverables 3. Sell the outcome to businesses No coding required. No huge audience required. No investors required. More people are discovering that AI isn't just a productivity tool. It's becoming a way to launch service businesses faster than ever before. The barrier to starting has never been lower. And the playbook is becoming increasingly obvious: Find demand. Use AI to increase output. Sell results. That's exactly what this guy did. 👇

Specter👁 (@0xSpecter_) reportedA successful store on eBay and Amazon used to look like this: one person searches for a niche, a second writes listings, a third handles SEO, a fourth responds to customers, and a fifth looks at the numbers and decides what to scale. Now it's one person and one tool. Claude doesn't just "help with text" - it covers each of these roles entirely. You insert a prompt and get a ready-made competitor analysis, an SEO-optimized listing, a human response to a negative review, or an analysis of what to kill and what to scale next week. A team of one. No hiring. No delegation. No loss of control. I've broken down the entire process step by step, with real prompts you can copy right now 👇

AJ Rockatansky (@AjRockatansky) reportedA proof of life post for me right now. I am busy, but not too busy to maintain. So I find a couple of replica lightsabers from the Star Wars in a storage unit I am working on. Okay quality. Just enough for morons to pay lots of money for and probably display them proudly. I am going to list them for 30 bucks to see idiots spaz out over my listing when I degrade them before they even buy it from me. I will stick to that price too. I want to interview the winning dumbass. Money is not the root of all evil. The *love* of money is. Loving ****** Chinese made movie props is just plain retarded. No evil involved. Scripture never said nothing about shining a light on morons. The one on the right cannot be purchased on eBay for less than 300 dollars. Mine sucks in collectabity condition, but they ALL suck when it comes down to it. They are like Beanie Babies for even duller simpletons Stay tuned.

Op-ed (@user98765146435) reported@pcgamer not a monopoly but ignores the real issue New digital video game sales are oligopoly controlled by companies who make games. The only real competition is in the console disc market, particularly the used disc market (Ebay, Gamestop, etc). Which is why they're phasing out discs

m5 b7 (@m5b71) reported@GrandpaRoy2 Disturbing to see that potentially capable 'affordable' AA systems may proliferate. You can't buy a MANPADS on ebay, but R7 you can. Unlikely to take down an airliner, but a real threat to light aircraft, I'd assume. I wonder if I could register one as a class C1 drone... :P

Harken (@Harken333) reportedUpdate: The bundle limited prints are now reduced to $75 - this and other things were marked down on his ebay store - Evan tried to blame his warehouse employee for changing the prices- see trashcast 254 but he has yet to revert the prices it seems 10 hours later!

AJ (@CardGameNomad) reportedDid you know you could report other sellers directly to eBay for this behavior? Open up a ticket and share the screenshots of the messages. Sellers doing this are terrible human beings that don't deserve a platform to sell on.

Sunk Cost Pharisee (@Liamjsm) reported@eBay I’ve done this already and I’m never connected to an agent, just fed back out into FAQs. If you’re suggesting that I misconstrue my issue so as to be connected to an agent, I will, but in the interest of not wasting my time please provide the fastest path

Apex (@UFC_Apex) reported@ForeverPhysical @VideoGamesPlus_ Thanks for the tip I have been contemplating about getting this one for awhile now you just sold me on it. Although I tried to use your link for video games plus in. It looks like they already took it down. So I went straight to ebay, got a copy for thirty bucks

Bargain Sports Collectibles (@bargainsportsco) reported7:30 am and a buyer called me a “******” on eBay. What a way to start a day… Just because I wouldn’t come down more than 20% on a card…
