What they tried & dropped

Extracted word-for-word from the evidence posts below — every item is quoted verbatim from a real builder.

Pain, in numbers

Quantified only where a builder stated a real figure — no LLM estimates.

$130,000-$200,000 a year“I usually wind up selling ~$130,000-$200,000 a year on eBay”

$100 item“when a $100 item is returned as a rock in a box once in over 200,000 in sales”

15% in fees“So what am I shelling out 15% in fees for?”

over 200,000 in sales“when a $100 item is returned as a rock in a box once in over 200,000 in sales”

Hard requirements

Non-negotiables stated by builders in their own words. Miss one and they will not switch.

What the numbers suggest

Insufficient evidence to score — single-signal gap. We don't grade what we can't verify; the two facts below are all we know.
8 rivals shipping (fact bar) see prices → market is crowded; differentiate on the unmet requirements above, don't compete on breadth.
1 builder post asking (fact bar) sign up to see the posts → → too early to call it demand — watch, don't build yet.

Signal history

2 posts on record since Jul 2026 — not enough to plot a trend. We plot history once a gap has 3+ posts spanning 3+ weeks.
