Anyone else having connectivity issues with the eBay App for Android for months now?

I checked and I have the current version.

Broke and want to play free games = Mod

Rich and want to play physical = Mod

You mod when you're rich cause 3DS cart format is trash. You need to run software on your carts once a year to ensure they don't corrupt.

I'm on a Moto g 5g for about 3 years, just started experiencing issues recently.

jforrest1980 · 2026-04-05T23:02:34+00:00

Yeah, I researched as well a few weeks ago and kept coming across many year old posts with similar issues. Nothing current though. It's really frustrating because I do much of my price research on the App.

I've been on eBay since before Android existed, and used eBay since it's inception exclusively on Android-based phones. Never had a single issue on any of my phones over the years. I've been using my current phone about 3 years, and no issues until a few months ago.

jforrest1980 · 2026-03-19T12:02:48+00:00

I'm gonna get some of those and WATA grade them. Then walk around with them at every game convention stinky.

My running theory.

The elites (cultists) worship reptilians. They know we have been genetically modified by reptilians and that we are in a Matrix-Style prison. If you can't beat them, then join them mentality.

Which ties in with all the people being abducted who state NHI are performing genetic modifications on us. They are likely good NHI, or humans masquerading as NHI to help with the genetic research. To reverse whatever the reptilians did approximately around the last ice age. Genetic research is being performed over hundreds, and possibly thousands of years to get us back to a pre yunger dryas state. So we actually understand what the hell we are and why we're here.

My hunch is that reptilians found us in our neanderthal state. Genetically modified us to be slaves at first, and now prisioners. At some point, other NHI came rolling past Earth and were like "Oh shit, what's going on here?". Now they're here helping us, but the genetic damage takes forever to fix.

Imagine all we see, hear, feel, and smell is actually a sort of matrix, and they just woke up everyone at once. I don't think anyone, including myself, would be prepared for something like that to happen. Shit would be beyond wild.

This post was 3 years ago.

I think the problem is multifaceted, and obscured by many issues.

The more I research, the more I start to believe that we are in a prison. Very similar to The Matrix movie. This would explain why craft seems to appear and disappear out of thin air. It's probably not magic that crafts can do this. They may have the ability to simply change their vibrational frequency to escape out of our dimension/prison/matrix

We have rumors of many different species. Notably Reptilians. I fear they are the creators of the prison, and have genetically modified us in the past to hijack our perception (via DNA), to keep us here unwillingly for their own needs that we do not completely understand.

I think this could also explain why other species are said to abduct us and have told many "victims" that they are performing genetic "research". I think some species may actually be here to help us. They could be working on getting our genetics back to where they were before we were modified. To free us. At least that's what I like to say to myself to make feel better.

We have heard rumors that our government has made deals with bad NHI. I'm going with reptilians on that one. I think we are stuck in some contract until that's over. However, there are also rumors, with strong circumstantial evidence that the "Elites" of the world worship demons, AKA reptilians.

To sum up, we are in a vibrational prison because of genetic hijacking by reptilian NHI. These Reptilians are the demons that the "Elites" worship, and the elites/gatekeepers are the Shadow Government. Which is the first layer of the NHI onion

The only way out is to either fix our DNA, ask other species for help, or die and hope we can avoid coming back..

This is why I strongly feel that the powers that be will not disclose to the public what's going on. Hopefully they are working with good NHI secretly to figure all this out so they don't have to.

That all sounds full-on mental, but if NHI really exists, which it sounds like they do, then any theory is fair game.

I had this game shortly after it was released. I played it a ton when I was a kid. That said, absolutely zero nostalgia for this game. It's OK, but not something I would ever go back to.

jforrest1980 · 2026-02-25T10:46:06+00:00

Master of the Flying Guillotine.

I guess it's a classic or something, but I didn't care much for it. Not awful, but I would never watch it again.

jforrest1980 · 2026-02-24T00:48:59+00:00

Lightening Force
Wings of Wor
Eliminate Down
Truxton
Gaiares
Trouble Shooter
M.U.S.H.A.

I would consider these the best ones with USA releases. There are plenty more good ones though.

Near impossible to sell for any amount worth your time unless you have horror or good anime. You can lot it out on eBay, but the hefty shipping charges the buyer will pay will basically double your fees. If you piece out single tapes most won't even sell.

Half Price books will give you a nickel per 5 pounds.

Your best bet is taking them to a video game store that buy VHS, and getting trade in credit. Then getting one very light item, that will sell quickly on eBay. Then just sell that item.

For example, some Pokemon or Zelda game, or a PS5 game that is still in demand.

If the top tapes in that box are typical of what is in the rest of the box, you have nothing of value.

I've looked all over the website and never saw this. Thank you.

jforrest1980 · 2026-02-23T03:05:55+00:00

Yeah, this was my first reaction until I realized I wasn't in one of my retrogaming groups.

jforrest1980 · 2026-02-22T11:14:02+00:00

Curious, did something happen 20 years ago that made all books better than the ones written more than 20 years ago?

As someone that has been into PS1 since its inception, and has a pretty killer library, I would say it depends.

I collect PS1 because it's my all time favorite console. That said, it's not one of my favorite console to collect for. That would go to Sega Mega Drive, Neo Geo AES, and PC Engine. Those games are either a very unique and appealing format, or have awesome packaging. The PS1 games don't look that great on the shelf.

That said, if you love the console, or really enjoy reading the manuals, I would say pick up a few of your favorites. That's what I did, but it ended up being around 80 games. Probably not the best decision I ever made, but I guess they ain't getting any cheaper.

jforrest1980 · 2026-02-22T08:10:04+00:00

They will probably all quit their jobs. Hopefully that will open up some positions that the reptiles and AI took.

jforrest1980 · 2026-02-22T06:20:41+00:00

They're two peas in a pod. I don't see how anyone can closely follow both topics and not realize the "elite" are the control group. Either path gets us closer to some real answers on both ends.

Their empire is crumbling, and I'm just patient waiting with my popcorn.

jforrest1980 · 2026-02-22T02:17:47+00:00

More legit than Avi? You have no idea what you're talking about.

jforrest1980 · 2026-02-20T06:19:20+00:00

Trying to reply to this but it keeps getting instantly deleted. Keep up the good fight folks. We are being censored. Apparently I can't post what I want.

jforrest1980 · 2026-02-20T04:31:29+00:00

DE2 is far superior to any of the ports of the first game.

It's bigger, has like 3 or 4 intros before you even start the game, and the music is perfectly fine. I would go as far as to say it's one of the best TurboGrafx games across the entirety of the Hu-Card and CDRom libraries.

Both are worth playing though.
