  @Fruitloops1984 I am aware of several methods eBay could employ if they wished to slow down or deter GameStop (those you mentioned). My comment was in regards to Cohen’s motivation. Some suggest he is not serious. I disagree.

  Deeply disappointed in @eBay and @PayPal for their handling of an issue with a Seller on eBay. Allowing the sale of fraudulent products and expecting buyer (me) to return the knock-off product to China at my expense - when the SELLER used photos of licensed product.

  @MichaelTLoPiano I think we are in a very interesting time right now if GameStop is doing what I THINK they are doing. Using mechanical downward pressure from Ebay arb traders to help keep the price down while they buy and essentially have $32 call options (warrants) that they can collect if/when price gets there. If they end up erasing ~90M shares, I can't imagine it NOT.

  @silvia6702 @eBay @AskeBay This is terrible. Luckily, after talking to someone on here I was able to get my issue resolved but we shouldn’t have to go on social media to get their attention

  @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.

  A $181K Pokémon auction flipped into a $236K “instant sale” right after the winning bidder allegedly didn’t pay. That alone is raising eyebrows in the high end hobby space. The MBA Black Diamond Black Label Bubble Mew reportedly ended at around $181,000. Shortly after, it was claimed the winning bidder failed to complete payment. The card was then relisted and quickly sold again for approximately $236,000. This all involves Ryan Card House and their handling of the auction process. According to an employee clarification, the original winner may have even bid up to $350K before backing out, which makes the final pricing narrative even harder to reconcile. The issue here is not just the individual transaction, but what it suggests about how high end auctions are being handled. If there were any prior agreements, guarantees, or undisclosed fallback pricing expectations, that would interfere with true price discovery instead of being explained after the fact. That is where concern comes in. Without the infrastructure and safeguards of established marketplaces like Goldin, ALT, or eBay, high end sales can start to distort rather than reflect real demand. Whether everything here is above board or not, the lack of transparency is exactly what erodes trust in the space. People need clean auctions. Not outcomes that require explanation after the fact. #Pokemon #PokemonTCG #BubbleMew

  @TheOmen8 @txrangerstime @eBay ESE is tracked, it’s also ensured up to $20 and i’ve had 1,000+ orders with only 3 having issues. I get wanting extra protection, but it’s a market based off prices. If you’re putting up a $3 card with $5 shipping and someone else has it for $3.74 they’re gonna pick the cheaper

  @ValueAddedRS Had a call w/an @ebay. It was a good call. Not a complaint, but an inquiry: Is the problem just that eBay doesn't have the buyer traffic? This went unanswered. Plainly nothing else makes sense. They've an interest in my promoted items selling 🧵👇(7pts)

  @citrusgirlpaige No the date on that order. Ebay clamped down on people selling them years ago. I was 15 when I made the order 😭

  @Comedyorwat BINGO! All this BS about the twists and turns … it boils down to just this. He is using the same method he originally used on GME, tried to use on BBBY and now has learned a **** ton more and is better prepared to take the big fish out. eBay will belong to GameStop, soon.

  @trigeminy_henry And sadly I work the department that takes calls or chats on this very subject Monday through Friday. It’s a shame and happens frequently, but because our metrics 90% of sales go through without issue eBay just deems it as the price of doing business. They’ll terminate accounts with valid proof within the site, though. Might be a case here at least. We’ll find out!

  @BourbonInvestm2 It's not even AI. It's simple IF/ELSE and OR/OR logic. It's used in all programming languages. He did a video a while back about an eBay "search secret" known only to the eBay employees. When searching for something, put a minus sign in front of words you want to filter out.

  According to @grok, this card is not numbered. Meaning, there’s no evidence he didn’t wipe the floor or have multiple copies purchased. It’s extremely common for a flipper to buy all variants and reset the comp. Everyone in that thread in favor of this witch hunt is toxic and all deserve to be blocked and even temporarily suspended from @eBay The fact that he said it was delivered when it was not is mildly problematic, but could be true. It’s a seller skill issue to refund here.
