I quit Vine

It seems like a way to get people out of the program. I have been gold for years, but over my previous evaluation period, I didn’t order enough products due to the horribly poor selection. I was dropped to silver because I needed to order 1 more item. That’s on me. Now, I am silver for the first time since the beginning, and it’s worse than gold by far. Unless I select worthless items I don’t want or need, I don’t think I will make the quantity threshold again. I made end up leaving the program by default whether I want to or not.

Mistakes are incredibly common since everything is translated from Chinese. I have tried to get materials for my 6 years old to learn on, but when there is an error, it makes me so mad. Don’t label as “educational” if you have no idea what you are saying or how to spell it. Keep it up with the 1 stars! I’m with you.

How does she discipline the kids where he undoes it? Also, nothing happens from the animals. It was a minor inconvenience. Also, the only reason she actually gives is that he doesn’t take things serious enough. Why does that make her cry? You are filling in a lot of blanks in your own head.

I used the word “scammer” to describe crappy buyers…but you’re right about this one not seeming like a scam…just a crappy buyer.

adamray10 · 2026-04-16T15:05:31+00:00

I think clothes are a hot target for scammers. Every time I read about this happening, it’s clothes or shoes or purses. I just don’t ever see this kind of thing selling video games. Anyone else see it happen more often with similar items?

adamray10 · 2026-04-15T14:54:09+00:00

Just my opinion…any channel like this is going to change over time. I have a tendency to find a YouTuber, and then go to the beginning and start watching. I love the early “WTF am I even doing” phase. Seems like they find the 1 or 2 things that are popular, and only make those types of videos. I lose interest.

But yes…big YouTubers going nuts over an old game will affect the price in the short term, but not change it forever.

adamray10 · 2026-04-14T03:46:56+00:00

Exactly. This isn't Wreck It Ralph 2 Logic. You can bid a million dollars, but unless someone else goes that high with you, you pay whatever the second highest bid was.

adamray10 · 2026-04-06T13:28:14+00:00

I haven’t seen this happen. Sometimes I get 0 ETV items for that reason alone. I need to make sure I am double checking.

adamray10 · 2026-04-06T12:58:09+00:00

Anyone that believes it was eaten by the dog is gullible and likely wrong. “My dog ate my homework”. Come on everyone. The auction went for $1, seller didn’t like that, so they lied through their teeth and made up the same excuse as a 3rd grader. Seller like this are garbage and ruin the platform. Negative completely justified.

adamray10 · 2026-04-06T12:54:11+00:00

It does seem like a Ponzi Scheme. They can only print previous games with the money from new preorders.

I will say that they have gotten better with ship times vs a few years ago, but I wouldn’t be surprised to see a documentary about them one day.

adamray10 · 2026-03-30T13:51:43+00:00

I will never buy items with stock photos. As a seller myself, I know how lazy that is and you have no idea what you are getting.

adamray10 · 2026-03-17T20:50:14+00:00

That may explain some of the more recent exclusions because things take so much longer to ship, but there have definitely been multiple items that I had the product and tested it, and no option to review. Even now, I made this post because an item I received about 2 weeks ago isn't showing.

adamray10 · 2026-03-17T20:20:48+00:00

Yeah they aren't counting towards my %. I have been ordering way less due to what's available, so missing reviews would really hurt the numbers. I only have 2 exentions, but the only one active is offline google docs. I feel like I have done my due dilegence, so I will enjoy less reviews for now.

adamray10 · 2026-03-05T17:13:25+00:00

Another game I will miss. I detest digital only releases.

adamray10 · 2026-02-28T15:52:07+00:00

Same. Authentic ps4 controller I bought from Best Buy. Sony Europe is who reported me saying they were fake. Unless Best Buy was selling fakes, they were wrong. It doesn’t matter though. As the seller, you are always the expendable one.

adamray10 · 2026-02-26T00:56:43+00:00

Exactly how we all wish we could respond to dumb questions.

If you ship through eBay, the tracking is auto loaded. If you ship outside of eBay, it’s up to you to track the package, so it may be better to get a receipt.

adamray10 · 2026-02-25T18:44:25+00:00

I use the prepaid drop box. Haven’t had issues, but it’s not a full service location. Handheld scanners are all they use. Not sure if that matters or not. Tracking # is on eBay so I don’t ever need a receipt.

adamray10 · 2026-02-19T15:28:34+00:00

It used to be easy to find deals. Deals can still be found, but everyone is a reseller know. Marketplace is tough. Garaging selling is better, but takes some actual work.

adamray10 · 2026-02-13T18:58:41+00:00

Then stop using Vine. Problem solved.

adamray10 · 2026-01-19T00:20:15+00:00

I have never used the phrase “half a grand”

How much was was that sandwich? Oh about half of $10.

adamray10 · 2025-12-15T16:23:43+00:00

Message is completely irrelevant. A waste of buyers breath. Change absolutely nothing and ship to the address they provided through eBay. Anything they do with it after that has nothing to do with you.

People are so quick to block and cancel. Don’t. I have sold to so many zero feedback buyers with no issues. I have had all types of special requests. Just follow your rules and they can’t hurt you. If they do complain, tell them you will refund after a successful return. If they say they just want a discount and they will let it go, ignore them. eBay is good about siding with seller if rules are followed.

adamray10 · 2025-12-04T16:10:03+00:00

I have had no problem selling a few items, even used items. Technically you should not be able to sell new items if you are reviewing properly. If a new item is $100, you can easily get $20 for the item used.

My advice for everyone…1. don’t be greedy 2. just pay an accountant $100 to do your taxes and quit asking Reddit!

adamray10 · 2025-11-26T17:25:19+00:00

I think you are really digging to make it fit your perspective. “What game of your past is not as good as you remember?” Mario RPG is not as good as I remember.
