    The only problem I have with this is it will be difficult to do combined shipping on orders. I take advantage of that a lot but sometimes auctions end a day or two after I already won one. Or, if it’s a bunch of Buy It Now listings that I want to combine, the seller rarely responds to the invoice request within an hour.

      @@DanTheCardMan2 it’s an hour. I commented already on it but most bigger consignment sellers give you 4 or 7 days to continue buying and combine shipping. If you’re a volume buyer you’re talking about HUNDREDS of dollars in shipping if you’re getting charged every hour and just hoping a seller refunds it? That’s absolutely awful.

      It is but it isn’t. You can input any card you want. It doesn’t have to have a set amount of funds on it so even if it’s preselected payment if they don’t have the $ available it’s still sold but you’re not paid and waiting.

    I love it, shill bidding happens too often and legitimate buyers often look elsewhere when this happens. Frankly any market correction it causes, just means it's the real value of the card. I'm a believer if you have to rely on things being sold to pay for what you have purchased, you probably have the order of things back to front anyway.

    I think that this is a good move and it will not stop all shill bidding but it will start to weed out people unable to really buy the card. Its unfortunate for sellers to get the notifications that the card sold and then the buyer backs out on the choice they made. So if you want the card be sure to have the amount you are willing to pay.

    It should help quite a bit, especially with the auction houses that list on eBay. If they're the ones that are diligent at blocking non payers (shill bidding, nearly every time), it'll definitely lower instances. The shill bidders won't be able to just 'not pay' and burn a zero feedback account as easily due to having to set up a new payment every time they want to attempt it.

  • @RonLoranger-cz9tb
    @RonLoranger-cz9tb 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Hi Dan, did I hear you say it would be up to the Seller to implement the pay within an hour, or did you hear that EBay will do this for every auction. I usually submit offers and counter offers on Tues and Wed, if it’s accepted by the seller I send a message that I’ll pay Thursday morning before 10AM EST. This new rule would be lousy for me, but will have to adjust what I do I guess

    • @DanTheCardMan2
      @DanTheCardMan2  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

  • @wju2004
    @wju2004 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    The only thing I see some of these shill bidders doing is using a credit card or even a one time use card that won't have enough room on it for said card and I'm sure you have so much time to update your payment method. They will probably just use this time to cancel and relist.
    Hate to be negative on this, but the shill bidders will certainly almost always find a way to keep bidding up their stuff. Hopefully e-Bay manages to find a way to mitigate this, though.

    @trevorschiavone8395 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I like the idea but I’m not sure how this stops shill bidding. If the shillers have an hour window to cancel they will certainly use that. Like you said, how do they police this ? I have thought for some time that buyers should be paying the selling fees. The buyers get all the protection without any financial responsibility. Meanwhile, sellers pay the fee, but are the always on the losing side of disputes. Buyers premium is a thing at most major auctions. Why is eBay different ? If you win an auction on eBay , you can cancel, but you have to pay the associated fee with the final price, and sellers get $2 relist fee let’s say.

    • @DanTheCardMan2

  • @MTFSportsCards
    @MTFSportsCards 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    This is absolutely TERRIBLE.
    A. I buy as much as I can that makes sense from one seller. Saves a ton with shipping and lowers median cost overall.
    B. There are sellers who are big consignment sellers or international sellers I buy from often and they give you either 4-7 DAYS to combine shipping.
    Shit, DCsports even runs 3-4 hours of ending time auctions per night and good luck getting ahold of someone there. You buy 30 cards from them in a night and you’re looking at $150 in shipping?? That’s an absolute joke.

    What they should do...is put this stuff into place until someone hits 100 verified payments, item received, feedback left.

      @straight.cash.homie_cards 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      I agree. I don't like not being able to use my PayPal account when doing these. Especially with bigger purchases because I some times use the PayPal option to Pay in 4 to help spread the amount out instead of having to take a big hit all at once. With these features you can not do either. Currently when I put in for a Best Offer, I just put a card that doesn't work in. Then once it doesn't go through, I go in and pay for it through PayPal. Which this way is how people to get around this. They put in a card that is already maxed out or has only a dollar in the account, then when it goes to process it won't go through. Except for Ebay having a hold put on the amount on whatever payment they are using until the auction is over there will always be a way around it.

      All it takes is 2 people using automated sniping tools. They charge something like a 1% fee. As far is that goes, it doesn't matter what method they use, as long as they pay for it in the end it's fair game. If you were willing to pay more, bid more. I'm guilty of regretting not going a bit higher on some myself, but there were times where my last second bid was still 30% less than the final. One I recall recently was a 1999 Bowman's Best Rookie Class Atomic Refractor. Huge run-up in last 30 seconds.

    I would like to see something in place that requires a person to have a legitimate business to resell, like proof of LLC. The flippers and the mini gambling rings need to go. I love gambling like an adult, but not with trading cards . I have to go through at least 3 levels of distribution and then deal resellers because distribution isn't only distributing. Anything selling spots for what is gambling should not be allowed on ebay. My concern about card policies are they affect the rest of eBay that doesn't sell cards.

    • @johnnypopsicle
      @johnnypopsicle 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @DanTheCardMan2 Before, when they had SRP on boxes, there were laws in place to keep from price gouging . They need to implement some kind of limit to flipping. Double and triple price because they hord all the supplies is bullshit. I remember there was a time when you could only get so much profit on things like event tickets. At least in the past, it was that way. Everyone is a seller with no business skills or knowledge. Some formal training is needed in cards. The scammers, flippers, and gamblers need to be removed by forcing legitimate business and enforcement of local gambling jurisdiction laws. Shill bidding is done by resellers. No one wants to be strictly a distributor business. It's all conflict of interest. Either you mine for gold or you sell the supplies. Selling the supplies is the safe money. They all want to open up the cards for me at an outrageous price. Remember, shill bidding became a problem with PWCC on eBay. Consignments ruined eBay for cards . ComC and dcsports87 are 6 weeks behind. That's how little actual collectors sell on eBay and how flooded the market is from everyone, mainly selling. Some basic laws need to be implemented. This wild west of cards where things that aren't legal anywhere else become legal because its cards can't continue and ebay should be liable for allowing illegal transactions like selling spots and price gouging and all the other fraudulent listing practices they allow.

    2. deter shill bidding? i am not so sure of that. the consignment shill bidders will always find ways to go round the system. maybe yes for the 1st month of rule implementation while the shill bidders find ways to counteract it
    3. auction cancellation. sellers can always cancel the auctions which they do now immediately after the shill billed auction has ended. what is ebay going to do about these? they cant remove the cancellation as there are genuine buyers or sellers with valid reasons to cancel it. to me,
