eBay CEO reveals which trend consumers are 'LEANING INTO'

[reallynicestamps]

Is there a transcript? I don't have eight minutes to waste.

I am old and don't have a lot of time left.

you can read faster than you can listen?  🙂

Interview? More like an infomercial. 

The tariffs/de minimis topic shows about the 5:00 min mark. And he basically said...nothing new. That they had made annoucements about the situation, and that they had made changes that made eBay more "resilient" to the tariff situation (like encouraging sellers to change their base of operations - to the US, I assume-).

I do, and I never waste my time on videos unless I really know it's going to be important.

[mrdutch1001]

likewise, I am a reader, not a watcher of videos, and this one was a total waste of my time, a bunch of nothing really...more of a bragfest for how great eBay is now and with the addition of AI ... 

[marnotom!]

At the very least, posting the time in the video where the OP wants us to watch would be useful.

[fh991586]

What john_koenig99 did, for our benefit.

[marnotom!]

Merci. Time for an after-breakfast power nap, methinks.

[femmefan1946]

Yes.

Can't everyone?

[byto253]

Allow Emmett to sum it up in a fun way!

[transtraders]

Wow a lot of grumpy people in here. I just thought some might be interested in it. I agree its mostly a fluff piece but I never forced anyone to click on it.

[reallynicestamps]

Well, idiotic tariffs will do that

You were trying to be helpful and that is appreciated.

Really.

I am old but polite.

There have been "triggers" on the ca board reported from time to time. Just not as constant when you compare to  com forum. This tariff doozy trigger plus the past several years of CP issues has just pushed many sellers and frequent and new visitors to this forum both over the edge and past our boiling point. The CP agents are hearing from customers about these imposed changes hourly. Not the kind of thing one would hear...Oh, okay. Didn't know and I will back when I have "signed up." What happens when something insane gets implemented with no thoughts of the consequences. (From ALL involved parties implementing.)  Elbows up is just the usually polite Canadian's saying enough is enough!!!

Personally...I would take up drinking....if I could afford to. But maybe, that's just me!!!! If it isn't... !!!

And now and complimentary musical interlude:
