I Find out 2 Different Sets Of My Negative FeedBack are Actually the Same Ebay Buyer ScammerI Found My Nintendo N64 Power Adapter to Test 03, 04, and 05 Motherboards

Good morning, everyone. It is now 628. Today is August 9th, 2025. We're on the weekend. Today's Saturday. The weeks go by so fast, years go by so fast. Before you know, it'll be fall, which I'm excited about. It's only, it's really talking major back-to-school stuff. So fall, we'll be here before we know. I was so excited about that. Not really a big fan of the winter, but normally our winters are pretty short. So it only lasts a few months, although the cold weather will be for a long stretch, just like our hot weather is just a reverse. All right, so yesterday I had that interesting podcast yesterday morning where I learned something about some negative feedbacks. We did another video about it to recap it from some new information that I got.

Made things to make a lot more sense for me. So a little redemption there. uh now i now i understand what's going on with all that mess but um and then we did oh i found my power adapter for my n64 so i had an o4 and an o5 motherboard to test and of course the o4 motherboard did not work they never do somebody said i don't know what's going on with that version there's always one version of a motherboard that never really works like a Sega genesis 1.8 it's like the worst motherboard version so so isn't the model 4 version of the n64 so we tested those cartridge slots i even went back and tested that really rusted one that i pulled uh the motherboard i don't know if it's

powering up because the LED fell off broke off but the uh board didn't didn't give me any video however and there's always a however with me the cartridge slot does work it's really a rusted and needs to be clean more but it does work so that's still going as a set the original board and the cartridge slot both cartridge slots worked first i couldn't get one to work and then it worked so those were fine i played a game i played some uh what i played yesterday playing something fun too it was through oh shadow man the shadow man i really didn't play it i just uh went through the beginning screen so that's really cool you ever played the shadow man and you ever played the shadow man into those older games it's really fun there's actually a PS4 version HD remastered

PS4 doesn't really remaster it that much still really boxing but it is better to play it on that you really like that game there's actually a Shadowman 2 which I never knew it's called the second coming it's on PS2 I did get a copy I've never tried to play it never played any PS2 games during that era I was working i never really played any of them still awkward graphics there all right so let's see what we got going on this morning year oh uh patriots played yesterday and i think they won it looks like they i think we're going to actually have a good team that wrote excited got josh piano's back so what we're back to something awesome another another plague of her an off-season

preseason game. My pictures look like they won, I think. Yesterday they played the commanders. And they unveiled the Tom Brady statue. I saw a quick look at it this morning, and it looks terrible. It looks like a giant man. I don't know.

That's all about. I would not want to have a statue of myself. And that'd be really bad. And then no one that's going to be there forever. I'll have to look at it again, but I looked at it really quick. uh we'll have to see you all right so we're looking through some news we do a quick recap so yeah so now let's see all kinds of football action preseason already seems like it's really early for preseason but i guess not august yeah august is preseason

september we start everything and it'll be all new for everyone's new all different coaches and players and everything. Interesting. We'll see how it goes. So let's see what we got here. So let's look at Etsy. I'll have the shot. Keep me line up to the ball. I just saw the news for Patriots this morning. I saw some interceptions and some touchdown. So that's pretty cool. Drake May should be

pretty good. I really like that Milton guy. Check out Milton. He's over at Milton the second I think his name is. He was his

backup quarterback. He's over in Dallas. Not a Dak Prescott fan so I'm sure Milton will take over. So yeah,

watch out for him. He looked really good. He only played in one or two games, but he looked like he just knew

what he was doing. It was effortless. but we traded them away so all right, so let's look at so no Etsy

took a push-month see we got going out this morning here or keeping the followers growing maybe next month or so I'll

do another I'll add some more things here just so I can get more followers. If I add more items to Parchmark, then my followers grow. They see I've added more stuff, although I don't sell anything, but just kind of interesting where it's going to go.

1,125. I have 326 listings here. And I need to really go through because I may not have any more. But we just leave them on. just kind of promotes that i have stuff somewhere and it's random i get to see what we got all right so let's look at my rs s s feed this morning witcher there's a new witcher come up looks pretty cool it's a female witcher though interesting

seen some previous but i haven't turned on either a ps5 or that xbox three i have the uh MetaQuest Xbox Edition I turned it on twice and I haven't turned it on I haven't turned on any modern gaming systems in Jesus three or four weeks so I haven't been into it I just got a lot of things going on we're trying to look at my store right now I can always go back and play but when I do go on a PS4 in the PS5 game system I like to go to the wish lists go to collect you go to a store collections and they're going on wish list you can see all the games coming like in 2026 there's some really cool stuff coming 2025 nothing really except for death stranding too which i really haven't been back into it uh 2026 is and then when ps6 comes out really crazy uh had two downloads yesterday so we're

422 only because of that one really crazy day with 351 downloads uh 1,106 all time so in the last seven days. Let's see, we have Ashburn, it's always with me there, Toronto, Moscow, Chicago, Newark, Newark's the new one. Newark, Edw Smith, Newark, New York, New York, New York, New Jersey. So that's the last 180 days. Last seven days. That's pretty cool. So we're up and down. I get a few, and this is, and this is now monetized so maybe I'll make a couple bucks sorry for any little commercials there but I just have tried to make a couple of somewhere so trying to look for that second source income even a side quest second income would be great right now I just have the one eBay which I've been really working on YouTube is significantly

growing although I need to take the breaks on promoting because I'm already in the hook for like 200 bucks this month It's so much fun watching to grow. 63,783 subscribers. My shooting the shit in organizing backyard is at 2.4K. Unboxing, N64, 2.1K, life in a double shave. 1.6K, so that's still ticking around. Ooh, my revenue is almost at $40 now, everyone.

$39.22. For some reason, the first, my first got monetized that first December, I had $40. And then I went way down and I never caught up. But now I'm getting a little bit more. If I could at least average $50 a month, then every two months I would make $100. I really want a lot more than that. I think the overall effort I put into this should give me more than that. I don't know.

You guys decide. just maybe just I just don't have the quality of videos that people want what I try to do do you do you sell those I have happy to take the purple controls off that purple control those are listed that lot is listed on eBay I was asking me about something I'll find I'll find the you know I'll add it to it there credits and 64 yes I try to reply to thing even if it's just something simple just to know it just so they know I anybody that leaves a comment that I see it appreciate it so my average duration right there's another nine seconds that's my doom my bugaboo my average duration don't want to sit sit around and hang out and

watch my videos they come in check them out same with the promotions I get I get all the subscribers yeah it's nobody's I don't think it's actually real or it's really interested in what you're doing just kind of somehow Google promotes it for you people click on it and then they subscribe but they don't actually come around and hang out with you so that's also so even though I keep getting more subscribers it's not really help me out but it is in some way in the hours that have ticked up someone so I'm resubscribing to anybody that I can find and they're all zero they're all zero most of the subscribers that I see is

and my account I have one that's 8882k subscribers and 774 my top subscribers but as we always say I can't see most of them and I bet you I got some big ones in there people with lots of subscriptions that they hide in they don't want they don't want to be knowing that they're watching somebody else I think so my view hours are at 258.8k so we're definitely still going up with the view hours you views and the watch hours at 1.1k so those those are significantly stayed higher now and therefore my revenue is going off a little bit thirty-nine dollars and twenty-two cents so then two months but I have to keep the amount

of videos I do I do pretty much something every day is not a time I don't have something I could do all right so let's look at eBay I'm old-off site yesterday. Let's see if help me. Let's see where I have. This is where my morning always start. As soon as I get to eBay, because I have no idea what I'm in for.

Oh, if I have orders, though, that's cool. Two messages, two offers. Let's look at the feedback first. We had a couple of feedbacks yesterday. Great seller, very happy with purchase. Commodore, N64, the bottom case. nice game gear motherboard fast shipping thank you that was a game gear

VA1 complete motherboard and then a plus experience the Zelda Wind Waker disc it came with a case believe oh we did that I didn't do a positive feedback

and that was a guy that I still waiting for something to get shipped and I told him that if you hadn't shipped to just have refunded me and he didn't either he didn't reply back nor did he refund me and it was for something like a little power adapter for a little sharp vacuum that it's been like five or six days and he still hasn't shipped it and that's not okay and then when you contact him to find out what's going on you get no reply that doesn't go well

but of course no matter what I'll give five full star feedback when and if it ever gone even though that it was a terrible seller

let's see where that is actually this is for a a shock power vac it's my mother picked it up it needs the charger she got it like a

Johnny Keek Center about power back itself but it didn't have the charge it let's see what that is see if he actually shipped the app purchase history so it always says tracking but it says no still says pre-labeled July 31st what's today August 9th so let's see if I can open a so now I don't want this at all didn't receive it not going to let me do it yet they still be on the way now I'm gonna get a little bit more rude cancel this order and refund me If you finally ship it, I will send it back. Turn to send it.

You finally ship. I waited, what, 10 days? And he didn't even reply. shift it I don't want to know two days pot max even if it's it for me it doesn't matter if it's this one screw or if it's you know something really big I'm going to ship it treat each thing as if it was meant to be gotten meant to be received as buy we need it as quickly as possible right because even a set of screws can be crucial for um says Thomas share feedback on your next purchases

yeah he said horrible things to me report all right says you are you really don't know about me and what happens when you can so this is something weird going on here this is a continuation of things to all look at that one second let's go send what that's in good shape send one in good shape all right so this is for ps3 no PS2 slim it's the little disc break spent or damage anyway I won't be able to use it actually show you the exact so he's saying if the exact one shipping first before I first first your your approval before sent out I said shipping toys let's get rid of that I'm talking to

it directly so again first thing in the morning's always about the messages from eBay any damage control okay I'll actually show you the exact one shipping first for your approval before sent out so unregistered another you so this is in regards you really you really don't care about me what happened what happened you can solve this right now and report the scammers yeah yeah says I have no interest I man up. I take what I get from crazy fires and move on.

Negative and neutral. feedback is crucial, is key to showing all the good and bad of selling on eBay. at all. Crazy buyers. Negative mutual feedback is the key to showing all the good and bad of eBay I talk about each one

on my I made a new video yesterday with a day with your info in a year in a year these go away blocking that fire is a lifetime not interested I've been stuck all right so we've got to if I can get my YouTube channel, I can't, I tried to send a link to them, but let's see if I get to go. We had only 10 views. So I've got a really clamp down now. It's going to be hard. You're the early to be. So I'm not going to do it.

It never does. It says it's a member to member contact policy. All I'm trying to do is get my link to my YouTube channel. Really frustrating. So power supplies. not to have a half and half again so that's heck no so if you're going to give me a half wall up again into the half hacker we've got two half hackers here this one and we're not taking either one of these absolutely not then I got 30% off anyway so it'll be half hack after already getting 30% off that's a heck no and I'm starting to head start blocking people that I give me these well this one these are you can have a

higher amount but I have something listed at a minimum is 13 and then with the 30% you're down to nine and then if I'm having somebody best off me down to like four or something I don't want to deal with it that's if that's what you're about I just block them just come to that point you have to be on my end to understand that I can't sell something with 30% off I got to find something else to do which I am trying to do I am trying to build my YouTube and stuff and eventually my well I was hoping but it's still not quite happening I was hoping eBay would be like my second income and my YouTube would really kick in but not so much but so you know we decided that that's

not going to happen at this by this point YouTube is just what it is it is growing but I have to upfront investigate keep it growing I don't think I'll ever really take off with YouTube you can only do you right and then at some point whatever you're doing it's just not working I mix it up I try to do videos outside got some other ideas but I really can't come up too much more because most of the stuff I do so and once the realization that monetizing on youtube is not going to even make enough money to be a side quest i mean a side hustle of mine throughout uh i was hoping it would be a survival hustle like my ebay

so the three hustles uh side hustle you have a job and you want to do something else on the side to make a little extra money then there's a survival hustle that's what i do where whatever you hustle is your main income which is my eBay and then there's the out of reach that I've never seen probably never will the thrive hustle that's where you're one of these YouTube channels some guy was he's an AI creator who makes fake news and he said like his videos get like $65,000 a month that's a thrive hustle I haven't obviously that's where I'd like to get to but I don't think I would like to have my YouTube channel be a survival also I could make I was hoping maybe 200 bucks a week I kept pumping out with lots of good videos and stuff but not so much I can't even get well we're getting better we're almost 40 up 40 bucks this month I get up 50 bucks a month I only get paid every every hundred dollars But if I'm still throwing hundreds towards promotions, I don't know, going backwards.

But going forward at the same time. So it's kind of really mixed up. So eBay is just what I decided that now I need to really bulk up by eBay, eBay. I'm not selling as much as I was because A, the world has gone more expensive. So therefore I had to finally get rid of free shipping. I just couldn't survive and just making $1 up an order. anymore so there's four dollars flat fee really helps doesn't get me rich or doesn't help me get to a thrive hustle but it'll help me be a survival hustle it's and it's working but i just got to keep

getting lots lots and more stuff on and bigger items oh so we had speaking of that so we got four orders here let's see what we got we have a set of screws the full set of game bit screws no not the full set though just a four game bit for this is for Nintendo GameCube around the housing oh in the power button okay you do that the second one is the PS2 slim the same buyer I believe that asks me make sure a little teeny break it's on the top of the top cover helps slow down the disc so I and that's one of those and then I sold Saker Dreamcast oh cool I sold that the motherboard it's the VA1 motherboard it's Japan though and it comes a biohazard game so I sold that and then I sold a power

supply for the PS2 slim again we're back to PS2 slim so the only one that had a power supply inside of it is the last model which is the 9000 model so I sold one of those. Oh, and then I sold even better. I sold my N64. I had eight defective donor rumble packs. I sold those and some mixed up

other things with it. Some of the memory cards, I didn't test any of those. Those are all as everything as is now. Pretty much. No more free shipping, no free returns. But however, if someone says

something I ship, it's supposed to be good And I have somebody right now that just returned something two months later, which that's really sketchy for just a small little item, an attendant game cube, blend assembly, motor, the gears. Two months later, it's a wireless shop, so they're fixing someone's thing. So two months later, they decide they want to return. And he's got to, as the return was opened, as broken gears, sure I'm going to get him back broken. don't remember shipping broken gears but i would know it was just so long so i have to take the return and i think most buyers like that think i'm just going to refund them but heck no if you open return i'm gonna wait to get it back and then i'll refund you uh i'm not just i'm not like

uh well i don't even think uh amazon does that anymore i know timu was doing it one time my mother wanted to return something was only like $11 and they just gave you money back i don't do that. Especially if you tell me I did something wrong, I want to get it back. I want to see what you're talking about. And then we'll talk about it on YouTube, especially if I get back something really goofy, which happens, which hasn't happened in a while, but they do happen. So I try to make later whatever I, the return. I'm going to have to pay for it anyway, so I might as well get it back. I may not do much of it, but we'll make a video out of it. Talk about it. All right. So yeah, so we had some really good sales.

Cool. Those all added up to a good amount. I got a lot of bills. I'm still covering all the things I purchased this month, including my promotions. So we're going to go from there. Let's see. Let's see what time is. I'm rambling now for almost a half hour each day now. So a lot of things going on. Oh, yeah, that guy that said something about, what was that message again? He said, you don't know anything about me or something. I don't get in the middle of that. I just take my beating from the buyer and I move on you really don't care about me he said horrible things to you maybe report yeah yes go to my YouTube channel of the same name. I have videos just about negative, just about all my negative and negative and neutral.

feedback I do not hide from any I expose it to all any I expose it to all that I want to see it as each has two sides to the story you can get a link to them I would unregistered so this person's not registered she had feedbacks we had those two half-hackers there so some sales to work on this morning nothing really I have to really pull almost is a pretty easy peasy today Saturday so technically my mailman well Saturday ship the main post office that closes at 12 is a smaller post office in town that closes at one and then you know all across the country it's basically the same

kind of deal but my mailman usually comes not till three so if you have orders on Saturday, you want me to be a seller because I'll get them all the way out until my seat order's coming in until three, until the mailman hasn't gotten, has already came, I'll keep pumping them out. That's how good I am. All right. All right, so that's it for everyone. So we will talk to you tomorrow. Enjoy the weekend. Have a nice Saturday. It's cool here, Rhode Island, wherever you may be. Sure, it's not as cool. We're pretty cool and quiet here all right so everyone have a great day and i will talk to you tomorrow all right bye
