The Giant eBay Garbage Thread

It’s the foot-in-door effect. People are more likely to do a favour for you after they agree to do a smaller favour for you first.

If a buyer asks too many questions on the very first message I just ignore, most likely will only waste my time and/or cause issues after purchase.

It’s like, “Do me a favor bro!” My uncle got cheated out of half his house by his business partner. Taught me, “Always charge friends and fam double, /s/” cuz they want special treatment at best, cheat you at worst.

“What’s PSA mean?”

Please Stay Away

To be fair, we all gotta start somewhere!

Maybe ebay isn’t the place though lol

I should have hit you up on eBay first with some stupid questions before wanting to actually buy stuff

Why do I know it’s a card worth less than 20$?

It is not. It is a Japanese Pikachu Gold V PSA 10.

So it was worth my time to talk to them.

Sneaky way to get a high price for 6 cheap cards. The rookie Umbreon is “free” and fake, so is there even an item not as described case for this?

People might bid hundreds on it

Checked a few listings to price check a few doubles I have. Now I am bombbarded with offers from sellers. All I did was view them, was never added to watch list.
And my autism is only satisfied by clearing out the offers from my bids and offer list.
Ebay shouldn’t allow sellers to send offers to viewers of the listings. Should be only followers

Up for grabs is a 1 of 1 custom that was made personally for me a few years ago. I’ve always wanted a shiny version of Charizard with the original Base Set artwork. This card was commissioned specifically for me, and features a beautiful Shiny version of Charizard. The color is absolutely stunning. The foil is 100% original wotc base set foiling. Original Pokemon card stock was used during the process as well. This is a must have for any Charizard collector! Every time I display this card at events, it always catches people’s attention! If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

Does GLG stand for Good Luck Grading this crap?

Damn GLG is really taking some market share…
Already in the 5xxxx certs? Feels like just yesterday they were in the 2xxxx and just handing out 10s

I like that the certs are different on the front and back too, try stealing that one!

It’s think it’s kind of cool :joy:

I mean, there’s no way I’d pay money for it but I have to hand it to them, they did a good job. I am surprised the bid is at $700+.

The seller wants $25k for this. 30k modern bulk at 0.50 per card.

“So now you know what I am selling and before you say it is not worth it blah blah blah……That means this not for you. Thats fine time to move on.“

I love it. Taking “I know what I have” to whole new levels.

But seriously though this is what it looks like when your average poke investor tries to cash out.

I’d be happy to purchase something like this at 50-60% of the sealed value, but at above MSRP? :skull::skull:
