The Giant eBay Garbage Thread

I was also negotiating with the seller and interested in the item. I bought an item listed on Ebay for anyone to buy, and you’re salty about that? Get over it.

If you had never sent me a condescending message, I would have NEVER messaged you about this sale. YOU started bashing my listings by saying they make you laugh and wishing me luck on them on trying to sell them. That’s clearly price/listing bashing. Here’s an idea, don’t message me harassing me and I’ll forget you exist, again.

Holy cow, you think every time someone buys something openly for sale that they stole it from you? I’m sure everyone on this forum has bought an item at auction that I was bidding on. Should I call out EVERYONE? What a wild accusation.

TL:DR Jeverstones is SALTY that I bought a great item at a good price and they didn’t. As a result, they’re trying to astroturf me for it.

Grow up.

This 1000%. If you are selling a card over $100, just include a back picture. It reminds me of that 1st edition charizard that was ashamed of his backside lol

Just found this after posting the first link and I think it tops it.

Ok. Might have topped it once more. Holy crap.

unpopular opinion I doubt Probstein cares as long as they are making money. I don’t care for proxy’s but if a listing clearly identifies that it isn’t a legitimate Pokemon card, then I think it is okay. The only thing that pissed me off was we had a dad post on here that his daughter bought a card like this at Goodwill for $50 and she doesn’t know that it’s fake and it sucks seeing that. I doubt a place like Goodwill would do their due diligence and do research before selling it :confused:

I’ve seen this similarly formatted description for a bunch of listings from across a number of sellers. I wonder where this weird semi-cookie cutter description is coming from? If it’s from ChatGPT, is everyone just putting in similar prompts or is AI just spitting out the same thing for a lot of different people? Looks like Ebay has it’s own AI-generated description filler (link and link). I haven’t made a new listing on Ebay in a while, but I guess that explains where all these similar-sounding AI-generated descriptions are coming from.

That explains it than! Today I learned. I’m guessing that anyone using this doesn’t have much knowledge of Pokemon lol.

I think you’re giving AI too much credit. This reads like pretty much any AI given a crappy prompt.

POP 1 ERROR BGS BLACK LABEL 10 - Pokémon - Evolving Skies - Umbreon VMAX 215/203.

This card is the only known error with a BGS Black Label grade. The error is the card is missing an ink layer giving it a gold hue vs the standard blue.
