  @grok @iamelijahfloyd @Grok I bought several magnets like that on ebay in order to work on a SRM motor... How would they be mounted so they're engaged to slow a metal disc like a tire rim?

  Following the clear confusion between labeling a jersey with a MEARS letter game used, I am hearing @eBay and @GoldinCo have finally decided to change their policies. No word on exactly what the shift is, but it is clear @eBay has recognized the liability created by selling objects as game used that their own internal team would clearly have reason to believe are not. Times have changed and credit to eBay for responding to it. Probably saved themselves from big issues down the road.

  @thewebbie @amazon The fluctuating delivery times I can live with; I just expect that as a result of the many variables inherent in online shopping. The packaging quality, however, is a big problem. Amazon built its sales volume on cut-rate shipping deals with USPS and UPS that other retailers couldn't match. That could hold out unless -guess what- we suffer an inflationary period driving up energy and labor costs. Now they can't afford to pay for proper boxes, packing, and skilled workers to sort & pack properly. (For anyone with an eBay side hustle you know that's actually quite a skill). So I concur that the amount of large items shipped in cheap envelopes is increasing, meaning we get more broken and missing stuff. Amazon will keep doing this until the cost of refunds and returns overwhelm the packaging savings...and I fear the end of the "free shipping" era is near.

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

  @eBay why do you allow terrible people like this on your platform? He replies to feedback with threats and stalking (when I ran a background check), brings in users family's (you have a 10 year old), deflects any blame or responsibility, and it just horrible. You should kick him off the platform.

  As most of us know, there have been plenty of people opening and selling 30th anniversary product early across Whatnot and other platforms. Over the past week TPCi has decided to put their foot down, specifically with sellers on Ebay. Several sellers have been contacted by Ebay and informed that their early listings for raw Pokemon cards from the 30th anniversary set have been taken down. Ebay claims the listings were in violation of their stolen product policy. I wonder if TPCi will go after Whatnot themselves and other platforms to root out the source of the problem....

  @eBay your platform is hurting buyers(im also a seller) The return process is broken. Theres no way to talk to people in the US, either by message or call. Some of your reps read the same script over and over again. Ask you for useless information that leads nowhere.

  Beware of this eBay seller. Purchased a J Baez lot when he was hot and I had to cancel and refund him because it sold on Mercari probably 15 minutes prior. He purchased it literally as I was taking down the eBay listing. I messaged him and apologized and refunded him immediately. Well… he left negative feedback and said he never got the cards.

  @KyngDid Even that breaks down to math too. If a table cost is $150 that’s 10% of $1500 in sales. Even selling at 100% of comps comes with a cost (and depending on how much you sell could be far more or far less than eBay)

  They seem to think they are THE Majima yume or want to come across as such, had an issue with me and my merch collecting, thinking I spend a fortune... if they only look at ebay prices, I can see how they maybe think that. lol But in the end...

  @BitbyBitFlips @cleartheshelf Nice Amazon growth! Focus on Amazon more and double down on it. Leave Walmart and eBay as side hustles
