EBay officially opens its platform to NFT sales

“The online sales platform eBay is now permitting the sale of non-fungible tokens (NFTs) for digital collectibles. The company told Reuters that beginning Tuesday an "NFT inventory will be provided to sellers who meet eBay's standards."

Users can bid on NFTs as they would for a physical item. All payments will be made in U.S. dollars — unlike other prominent NFT platforms, which usually accept ether (ETH) for NFT payments.

Many of the NFTs currently available for sale on eBay appear to be on the WAX blockchain, with sellers stipulating that buyers create a WAX wallet in order to receive their NFT.

The move to allow NFT sales comes a week after the e-commerce firm's CEO Jamie Iannone told CNBC that the company was looking at ways to incorporate NFTs on its platform.

It also appears to be part of a larger plan. "In the coming months, eBay will add new capabilities that bring blockchain-driven collectibles to our platform," Jordan Sweetnam, senior vice president and general manager for eBay's North America market, told Reuters.“

I hope it’s in its own section, separate from physical cards.

I don't even care, I'll use your NFT. I have a single spinning Topps wooden coin NFT GIF in my possession still, I can cover whatever fine you want to lay on me just fine.

For NFTs, I think this will lift the market and make it more exciting. I also hope they provide a way to guarantee the NFT was created by the legit creator. It will be interesting to see.

This last part is gonna be a key issue. for example when mahomes ngannouu etc had their drops on makersplace lots of those were bought and sold on opensea but from what I've been told its hard to guaranteee authenticity on opensea. The same thing is gonna happen on ebay a ton. People will try and sell fake nft and hope buyer cant tell the difference.

As for everyone that thinks nft are stupid, i'm not disagreeing with you, but to ignore the market it just silly. Here's a nft of a piece poop. https://wax.atomichub.io/explorer/asset/1099536896331

it sold for 6k USD

Awesome.

Can’t wait for “INAD” returns for NFTs that lose value..

Wiseguy917 · 05-14-2021, 05:24 PM

Better come with delivery confirmation

dabbadoo · 05-14-2021, 07:33 PM

That poop NFT is part of some game, giving it some utility in the game. I don't know anything about that game, but that's the reason the price was so high -- not because of the poop itself but what it can do within that game. That doesn't mean anyone should like it, I'm just pointing out the likely reason for the price.

Actual transcript of a grainy audio recording from the eBay home office in Silicon Valley -

Silas: What the fu...Gordon, do you smell that?

Gordon: <sniffing sound> Yup. Sure do Silas.

S: That’s the smell of some a$$holes making money selling literally nonexistent virtual pixels and we’re not getting our our God-given piece of the action.

G: <picks up phone> Yasmeen, get me Douglas from Purchases & Acquisitions and ask him to please explain WHY THE <EXPLETIVE> WE HAVENT PIVOTED TO ALLOW FOR THE BUYING AND SELLING OF WORTHLESS TOKENS YET!!!!!! <hangs up phone>

S: Jesus Jumped Up Christ, what are these simpletons gonna waste their money on next...

G: Good God Silas. Who gives a fat crap...as long as we get our 10%.

S: <Guffaws wildly whilst pouring two crystal snifters of Bas-Armagnac>
