    @clarkknowscards @phatjer300 @OnlyCharizard If you select “buyer requested cancellation” it will not ding your eBay account. All the other options from the drop down menu do. I lost top rated seller once for cancelling just 2 orders within a couple months.

    So, buying DVD's from eBay is cheaper than ordering movies to stream. Plus you get to keep them when the grid goes down 👍👍👍

    My librarian Janet was running a book laundering scheme where she checked out books under dead people's names, reported them lost, pocketed the replacement fees, then resold the "lost" books online. Discovered this when my dead grandmother's library card got a overdue notice. "Grandma's been dead for three years." "Oh no, our system must have glitched," Janet said. But the book was real. Someone checked out "The Goldfinch" under her name last week. I checked records. Grandma's card had been active for three years. 47 books checked out. All "lost." All replacement fees paid from a account I'd never seen. Confronted Janet. "You're running a fraud scheme with dead people's library cards." "I'm maintaining circulation metrics for funding purposes." "You're stealing." She showed me the books budget. Cut by 40% over three years. "I'm keeping this library alive. The replacement fees fund new books. The 'lost' books get resold. Money goes back into the system." "Through your pocket." "Some administrative costs are involved, yes." She'd been doing it for five years. 200 dead people's cards. $180,000 in replacement fees. Books resold on eBay for another $90,000. All money went back into library programs. Story time. Teen literacy. Computer access. "You're Robin Hood but make it books?" "I prefer Marian the Librarian but yes." I should've reported it. But the library was thriving. Programs everywhere. New books weekly. Then an auditor noticed the pattern. Investigated. Found everything. Janet was fired. Police got involved. Community rallied. "Janet saved this library." Petition to drop charges: 4,000 signatures. Charges dropped. Janet was rehired with "enhanced oversight." She's not allowed to handle money anymore. But circulation is down 30%. Programs are being cut. Janet started a nonprofit. "Friends of the Library Foundation." Runs fundraisers. All legal now. Raised $200,000 last year. Library is thriving again. I asked if she missed the scheme. "Every day. It was elegant. But this is better. Harder, but better." My grandmother's library card finally got deactivated. Last book checked out under her name: "How to Get Away With Murder." Janet swears it wasn't her. I believe her but I also don't.

    @StonksMae Problem is everyone is confused and there is no clear direction. Buying eBay or no? CEO unpaid or getting 35B? More dilution coming? Bonds being converted or not? Too much uncertainty

    Adam Gray on YT was talking about fake patches today going back to 2007. According to Upper Deck they have staff on hand now that saw it happen in 2001!! Personally I think the current UD story is BS as this is the 3rd time they have changed the story on this card but they did say it recently. The latest UD version is someone pulled one of the first Kobe Patch cards and immediately swapped it into this card and they have someone on staff that remembers them doing it in 2001 ish. In 1999 UD told me about this specific card and another patch card when I asked them what the future of patch card looked like. They instead told me about the best and worst Patches they had seen so far while they were testing. I ran a cron job from my GameJersey server to search ebay and the newsgroups for these cards. A few years later I found this card on eBay from a highly rated seller that sold boxes and cases and, at the time, a rather large Kobe collection. I inquired and they said it was a gift from UD to someone who had passed. Around 2012 I had to call UDA about the first 1 of 1 Game Jersey card ever made because it didnt show up with their online verification and has a phone number to verify. After doing that I inquired about this card and after a few transfers I was told that my card was a fake and they were floating around the past few months. I assured them mine had providence and was in my collection for years at this point. They shrugged and said they didnt have anything further to add.

    @laralogan Goodwill was established to train unemployed or undereducated men to repair items for resale. Now they don't accept broken items that need repair. And they have learned that they can make more money reselling stuff on eBay than in stores.

    When selling on eBay if you see a third-party shipping company do you have issues or concern shipping the card? I always seem to have problems with ship my cards.

    Not sure who needs to hear this but you can spend $100,000+ a month just using Amazon as your source of inventory. You can do this at 40%+ ROI. You can beat section 3s and account health problems. You can sell your inventory on Amazon, Walmart, eBay, Whatnot, TikTok, or locally. If you’re an Amazon seller you can also get a complete P&L, cash flow analytics, ungating support, reimbursements, product monitoring, replen dashboards, FBM tracking, order tracking, and more. For free, then $3 a day. You can be as weird as me and do it all from your phone if you’d like. We are building the most complete software package publicly available. Taking no profits out. Doubling down on team and partnerships.

    Former CEO of PayPal + Inuit Bill Harris on Moneywise today. He broke down his portfolio and expenses (and what it was like working w/ Elon + thiel. - Net worth: ~$100m. Divorce cut it roughly in half - ~$50m in operating companies he's starting, ~$25m diversified securities, ~$25m bonds. No PE/hedge/alts - "absurd fees" - PayPal/eBay exit: personally "more than 20 million, less than 50" - Personal Capital: sold to Empower for $825m with $23b AUM; his take was north of $100m post-tax - New venture: ~$10m of his own money in - Total annual burn: ~$70-80k all in, property tax included ("well less than a hundred thousand bucks") - No mortgage (cottage paid off), no car, bikes to work - Owned a ton of stuff (houses, cars, planes). Sold it all because it took too much time to maintain.

    Just bought 180 tested video games across generations for about $2.50-$3 / game. The previous batch was $2/game. Sounds crazy when you can see on eBay some of these only selling for $6-8. But I also see something that made me question this. 52 minutes south of me a video game store exists that sells these games for at least $20+ The same games you’d comp on eBay for much less. Why? Because it’s hard to trust random sellers and in this niche I’ve see people want to buy from people they like, people they trust and people they vibe with. Therefore I’m buying a disc refurbishment machine and offering a “warranty” to my future customers where if a disc stops working, we’ll fix it to the best of our ability. I’m also packaging games with the consoles we test and increasing the prices and will have a branded website off of marketplace platforms. Does this take reselling to the next level? Yes. Will it be difficult for me? No. It’ll actually be quite fun and we’ll act a little bit like game informer for retro games. If it doesn’t workout? Cool. If it does? That’s a fun way to resell.

    @Bgillz7 Spoiler alert… they have lost money now. They used it to buy BTC, eBay, and treasury notes. Down $100m on BTC. Even on eBay. Up maybe $100m or so on T notes. $350m in cash out the door and an extra 7m shares. $400 in value lost on $1.4b in notes that were 0% interest.
