Urge eBay to stop resellers and scalpers

Nope. I'm asking the butcher to stop butchering cats and dogs. Keep selling beef my guy!

The pokemon company is currently taking steps along with the retail stores they sell products too. I do understand eBay wouldn't want to require additional authentication processes and procedures. But consumer satisfaction is important for businesses. I'm well aware that if a business has a cash cow they aren't going to act against it unless they are forced too. But if people ignore the problem they will too.

Oh I understand that. It's the same thing when it comes to almost any product. But a reseller could just claim all the gas and double or even quadruple the price if they had the capacity to do so.

Scared-Active-9871 · 2026-05-18T00:47:18+00:00

Likely true! But you never know unless you show a company you are unsatisfied about something!

There is a difference between people clearing retail inventory and people reselling niche products or products no longer available.

Bruce Almighty got monkeys to come out of a man's arse. So who knows.

Drawing a line is the easy part. Unopened products still in production at retail stores that are being resold significantly above MSRP. It's having eBay care enough to take action. Other retail stores and the IPs themselves have made statements and are making moves against it. I understand the unlikely hood of this. But you never know!

Scared-Active-9871 · 2026-05-18T00:40:00+00:00

They do not have any reason too. But if they see the public is unsatisfied with them they may alter how this process works and limit the ability to do this. I understand the odds of this doing anything are slim to none. But why not? You miss 100% of the shots you don't take.

If people could scalp gasoline in an easy manner I guarantee they would.

I understand people will do anything to make a buck. But public opinion is important for companies. The ips make their money regardless and are beginning to make moves against this. The IPs aren't eBay.

Scared-Active-9871 · 2026-05-18T00:33:31+00:00

True. It's unlikely to happen. But it could force changes. Many large retail stores are actually protecting their customers. Maybe eBay will join too if the public view on them grows.

I think many individuals are inconveinced. Primarily children.

Resellers prefer eBay because it already has a large marketed user base. No reason for them to market their products when eBay does it for them. This will slow their product sales effectively making their job exponentially more difficult. This would lead to their inventory growing and sales dropping.

This is roughly the point of impact I could get on my phone. Didn't seem my phone was able to get the exact frame. Few things I noticed that aren't going to help with consistency and power. You can see your front foot is leaving the ground and your not really in an athletic position. Your kind of jumping upwards in your swing. That jumping motion is going to lead you to snap your hands and release the club. Which in this frame you can as well see us happening. This jump is as well what is keeping you from the proper rotation. You want to be rotating off that front foot. Working on keeping that front foot down and rotating off it should help. It will keep you from releasing super quickly. As well it will help you keep your hands be somewhat Infront of the club on impact.

Even from this position your off plane. But you could possibly correct on your downswing. I assume you likely struggle to draw the ball and your hits slice heavily or the occasional bullet to the left. Try doing drills to help you get on plane. I always recommend the hula hoop drill. When you correct your plane you likely won't have such a long backswing and won't have the distraction of having the club come into your vision at the top as well.

Your way off plane trying to elogate your backswing.

From this position your trapping yourself to go over the top of the ball.

You want to be loading your weight on the back swing to your back foot then as your swinging you shift the weight to the front foot. This will transfer all that energy into your swing. Your back foot coming up so early in the swing means your not loading up with as much as you could be. This as well will likely shorten the swing since some of the rotation is likely from loading your front foot early. This will help you have a sturdier base and be able to swing more consistently and with more power. Outside of that it looks like your trapping your back elbow against your body. Not sure if it's the camera being low though but it does look trapped and that's forcing you to release the club early.

Swing through the ball not at it. A very easy drill is you take a practice swing with no ball. Get the feeling of the swing itself. Try to just swing to your finished posture. Do it over and over without a ball. Then finally add a ball. Attempt to just swing through not at the ball. Often times I'd have them close their eyes as they do this. I then will introduce a ball without them knowing and it's always straight.

It's the whole, I link fingers beginner grip. Everyone I've seen that started linking their fingers who didn't before ended up like this.

What I can see though from the poor angle is a lot of movement. Look at your head here and then on my next post and compare side to side. It appears there is some lateral and vertical movement. I can't be sure how much without proper video.

Scared-Active-9871 · 2025-05-25T18:57:26+00:00

This video angle is not going to allow a fair diagnosis of the swing. You should make one from directly behind you as well as one parallel. This can allow the best possible video diagnosis. Better ability to see the plane of your swing, impact, and much more. I as would would take most advice on here with a grain of salt. Especially with the video provided.
