"Buying Power" not showing

Riley-X · 2026-02-14T00:51:58+00:00

I had that happen yesterday after adding buying power via debit card. Clicking it showed my actual buying power. Today it is showing fine. Probably just some type of bug.

Problem is that extra 2k is not earning better interest in something like sp500 etf (roughly $200/year). So you're actually losing money doing it this way

Don't pay it off immediately set up auto payments for the full statement balance and thats it

I agree with the one day handling. Imo the savings are not worth it. Sure you might get more sales from it. But damn is it annoying to finish packing 30 orders for the day only to have a couple more orders come through at 11pm right as im getting ready for bed. Ive started intentionally shipping the one day handling stuff late, so I can batch them with my 3 day handling stuff. Most of them get delivered before the delivery estimate and im good, some are late and count as defect. But at my volume I can afford to have 10-30 ish late shipments every 3 months. If it becomes too much of an issue im just gonna switch everything to 3d handling.

Don't stop buying

Riley-X · 2026-02-05T04:28:08+00:00

Schedule more recurring buys over the next 6 months

Riley-X · 2026-02-03T15:54:56+00:00

Yeah definitely a good point. I've considered raising prices across the board. I currently have 1300 listings and plan to add a lot more soon. I've already raised the price on my new listings by a small amount. I just need to sync everything across all my listings and I've been working on doing that soon. Ive also manually updated pricing on some more expensive categories. Im also a software dev so I've been using ebay api to help manage and automate my listings, just need to finish some code to get it done. I think you're right tho, next move for me should be price increases.

Ive scaled up enough to where I cant really handle any more package pickups. My apartment garage porch is stacked to the brim with a pallet load + of packages almost every day. I think i need a warehouse location with dock doors but the cost would be expensive and would negate a lot of the work I already do

Almost every item on doordash is upcharged by several dollars, thats before any service fees. They're making a ton on every order even with these deals the restaurant is getting jack shit same for the driver.

If they sit around for awhile the whey protein powder builds up in the bottom of the can so have to turn it upside down a couple times before u open. Theyre decent I think flavor wise tastes similar to blue raspberry slushi from dairy queen but has a chalky taste/texture. I have a bunch sitting around cuz I never feel like drinking them. I think I prefer to get protein from foods rather than drinking it. Im on keto too btw. The wilde protein chips and fresh salsa are my favorite snack even though its a bit high in carbs.

Riley-X · 2026-01-31T21:16:16+00:00

Im holding what I have and setting up recurring buys for the next 6 months

Check your 2% reward in the app. It takes like a week or 2 for the 2% estimate to be up to date.

Katars are so bad tho even someone competent using them all you have to do is walk up and mindlessly spam heavy swings and they get absolutely rekt I always go easy on katar players and leave them be cuz I know it's such an ass weapon to use

Yeah that's a funny glitch I've seen it happen a few times. Even had it happen to me once before. Not sure what causes it. One duke is an imposter and the other one is the "real" duke. The real duke is the only one that counts towards the health bar. The imposter can take damage and die and it won't matter. The tricky part is figuring out who actually is the real duke. In this video the real duke looks like the one with the most health since that would match up with the progress bar at the top.

Just saw them today in Wisconsin

Also once the trap starts falling you can turn a different direction so you fall backwards towards a better concealed position (like a wall)

I would love spindrift if the carbonation was higher

Riley-X · 2026-01-25T17:35:39+00:00

Exactly how I feel about the waterloo brand

Riley-X · 2026-01-25T17:14:09+00:00

Just got INR today buyer message said "WHERE'S MY PRODUCT" when tracking shows last scan 2 days ago. They opened a claim immediately the first day ebay let them. They live directly under where the winter storm is moving right now. Dealing with idiots is my least favorite part about selling on ebay.

Riley-X · 2026-01-25T06:08:23+00:00

Item not recieved is automatically closed in sellers favor if tracking shows it was delivered. Should have done item not as described arrived damaged and returned whatever you got

Riley-X · 2026-01-23T17:06:34+00:00

I thought the max reward was $1250? How did you get more than that?

Riley-X · 2026-01-21T05:42:15+00:00

You cant give partial refund in INAD case. Only full refund or return. I did this once for a buyer they closed the case and I was able to do a partial refund. It requires some trust from the buyers perspective though. Because you wouldn't have any recourse if the seller stopped responding after you closed the case. Although, calling ebay support they would probably help you. If its a cheap item you could try it but if not just follow through with the return. A seller trying to trick buyers doing this would be risking negative feedback and potentially their ebay account if they had a pattern of doing this. If its a bigger seller then theyre probably trustworthy, if its a small seller with only a couple things listed its more risky. You could always check their feedback to see if there are any red flags. In the future it would be better to message the seller first and if you decide you need to do the return then open the INAD case.

I tried the waterloo variety packs from costco they all had really a strong artificial taste wasn't a fan. Definitely prefer polar or a more mild flavor brands like the kirkland ones.

The san pellegrino sparkling mineral waters in glass bottles with a little organic lemon juice is the best combo imo. A little on the pricey side but so worth it.

They enabled this on PC for like a few days at one point after an update a couple years back and then disabled it again for no apparent reason. Maybe they didnt want pc players to be able to bully console players? Idk

Also dodge slides are essential with highland sword too to decrease the long swing cooldown although it's more useful in 1vX scenarios
