As far as I can tell, TCGplayer has a workers union, but management has never been happy about it. This week I’ve been seeing some alarming social media posts - made it sound like management had literally brought in the Pinktertons to rough up the employees during their breaks. That seems far fetched, does anyone have any credible sources for what’s going on?
Best I could find was this article on MSN, which simply states they’re closing the union facility entirely & relocating it to another state: https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/economy/union-accuses-ebay-of-closing-tcgplayer-office-in-syracuse-to-keep-the-company-union-free/ar-AA1FlJ06
Here’s a more sensationalized article: https://www.valueaddedresource.net/ebay-tcgplayer-union-layoff/
The only real source we have is the union, as TCGPlayer/eBay are not going to talk about it.
Their Bluesky account currently has the same info, but maybe more will come out
