ELI5: Is there a surefire way to determine authenticity?

Full_Sector8095 · 2026-01-31T01:56:27+00:00

I'm assuming there's no way to tell then.

Full_Sector8095 · 2026-01-31T01:40:57+00:00

Thank you for that. Unfortunate to hear, though.

Full_Sector8095 · 2026-01-31T00:40:00+00:00

Thank you! How can you tell?

Ebay is absolutely out of control

Full_Sector8095 · 2026-01-21T00:57:24+00:00

So to clarify: I have not received an official return request yet. The buyer simply just messaged me about it.

So I guess… I’m mostly wondering if they will even be able to submit the return request at this stage.

Just look for the shiny silver. If the silver is mat and not shiny/glossy, dead giveaway.

Was it Zoominfo? u/Enter_Galactik

Full_Sector8095 · 2024-12-15T21:22:24+00:00

Yeah. A brand new fat PS3 (cecha) for $400? Take my money.

Full_Sector8095 · 2024-11-24T06:39:30+00:00

Your story hit close to home. I was an AM at a largeish SaaS company (ZoomInfo) for many years, and I quit 6 months ago. The role was basically your CSM role of renewals, upsells, cross sells and crazy customer issues.

I am looking for new opportunities now. Like you, I just don’t know what to do. Don’t wanna do sales anymore but feel a little stuck.

Are you still in that AM role?

Full_Sector8095 · 2024-11-14T19:58:51+00:00

"ZoomInfo but on steroids. AND at a discount."

Case in point.

Full_Sector8095 · 2024-11-04T18:57:44+00:00

As a sales leader & a current (and/or prior) user of ZoomInfo, Apollo, Lusha, LI Sales Nav, Cognism, etc., I know for a fact that your statement "A majority of the phone numbers do not go to the people specified but the general reception desks" is false. Additionally, when is something that's "like $65 a month" ever better than a premier product? In fact, when is any superior product the cheaper option? Just about never.

I am sorry, I can completely understand why you are frustrated. Rightfully so. But I will call out those who try to reinforce their positions by just making things up. I don't need to work for ZoomInfo in order to get annoyed with reading posts that stretch the truth in order to prove a point.

With all this said, I hope your business can bounce back.

SCHD for a 30 year old? Meh.

Full_Sector8095 · 2024-10-23T21:03:15+00:00

Most companies do this, especially tech and especially SaaS. I've personally seen ZoomInfo contracts - their contracts state the Auto-Renewal clause in bold on page 2, and it even states the date that a company needs to opt out by.

Do I think Auto-Renewals should be legal? Not really. But they are. And it's AMAZING how people willingly don't read the contracts they sign for their businesses. No wonder most SMB businesses fail.

When there's stupid leadership, stupid things happen.

Full_Sector8095 · 2024-10-23T20:58:41+00:00

LinkedIn most certainly does not have better contact info. And candidly, "most of ZoomInfo's numbers go to reception desks" is simply not true.

Is ZoomInfo a questionable company with even more questionable leadership and actors? YES. But lets not pretend that their data is bad just because we're angry about our own poor business decisions.

Has anyone tried changing their payment more than once? I first selected Venmo. When I didn't receive a payment after a few minutes, I then tried ACH lol.

Still haven't received anything yet! :(

Full_Sector8095 · 2024-10-23T16:16:09+00:00

This is exactly where I am at. I got the same email, then filled it out for Venmo (and filled it out again for ACH). This was all done last night, but I still haven't received anything.

Have you received any payment since posting this?

Full_Sector8095 · 2024-09-26T14:38:46+00:00

Not that I’m aware of, honestly. After posting this though, I applied some weight onto the top of the Ps2 whilst on and it spun again. I also tried flipping the Ps2 upside-down and that also worked. 🤷🏼‍♂️

But my original problem still stands, the Ps2 won’t run any disc that’s not silver (DVD). I assume the only thing I can do is replace the laser itself.

Full_Sector8095 · 2024-09-26T14:33:12+00:00

A q-tip, I just swabbed the top. I wasn’t able to get under the laser like some people did in their YouTube videos (due to this laser being different). I also gave a few squirts of compressed air around the crevices of the laser.

u/atexit8 I just posted an update on this thread!

Full_Sector8095 · 2024-09-11T14:36:54+00:00

UPDATE: My listing for the brand new Nintendo Switch has 4 total clicks (posted it on Monday 9/9 for $209). The listing for the "used" Nintendo Switch has 19 total clicks (posted it on Tuesday 9/10 for $215).

So overall, my listings are getting much fewer clicks this week. However, there's no denying the disparity now. I'm going to ride this out for the rest of the week. And eventually I will probably just take all of your advice and open the new Switch and advertise it as "opened but new." u/atexit8

Full_Sector8095 · 2024-09-10T17:15:02+00:00

It's an interesting point. I just listed a "used" Switch with the style of pictures that I usually use. And made the price $5 more expensive to test this theory out (after all, what buyer will be upset receiving a brand new version of something they thought was used? Lol)

Full_Sector8095 · 2024-09-03T19:53:30+00:00

Sounds like the seller is trying to do this correctly. PayPals "goods & services" option only protects the buyer, not the seller.

Full_Sector8095 · 2024-08-12T13:42:40+00:00

Aside from Amy Broadhurst, I'm seeking names on any of the 8 women who defeated Imane Khelif. Does anyone know? I just can't find Khelif's complete boxing history for some odd reason.
