    @eBay how the hell do you talk to a person who works at ebay. Terrible customer service when its needed

    @veorq Let me guess: you bootstrapped a fault-tolerant 1,024-logical-qubit surface-code array using a repurposed kitchen fridge, some salvaged dilution-refrigerator coils from eBay, and pure unfiltered genius? Error rates below 10⁻¹², logical T-gates cleaner than a freshly decohered vacuum, and zero crosstalk because your magical anyons just felt like cooperating?

    @Studio_IronGear I wanted those Megazords SO BAD!!! Instead we got enlarged bootlegs of them. I even tried ordering one on Ebay for around $50 but it was never delivered. I had trust issues with Ebay since then.

    @TF_Moments Yeah I think after seeing this I'm gonna hunt down an earthrise cliffjumper on Ebay

    Taylor Thompson (@GrizzTT7) reported

    I noticed he had the card up on auction on eBay and at the time it had two bids and was at ~$500. No BIN option available. I periodically check throughout the day to see if the listing would ever come down and if he would send me his PP info. No response all day so I send another

    @TraMufc I shouted a lad going down steps to concourse with a flag. Wasn't gonna leave it but steward saw it and took it from him I'd probably try eBay for some of the rest Scruffy *****

    @BrianAhlin That is such bullshit. Dude has a "partner" for a $14 card hahahahaha. Block that fool. The process to block a buyer is not super easy, but you can google it to see how to do it. Take note of their eBay username. If you are worried about your feedback (100%) then I would refund, block, and move on. And give them a piece of your mind on the way out. If you arent worried about it, then let eBay deal with it. If you have your store listed as no refunds, and have clear descriptions and pictures, you will be fine. Its their own opinion and they cant prove that it didnt happen on their end. I hate buyers like this. Thats why I shut down my eBay store. It got annoying and I had to be a little ***** about it all the time to maintain my 100% Top Rated seller, and couldnt tell these ******** what I really thought.

    @LifeisaGameMag I actually have a couple of the original Black Flag Collector's Edition bookmarked on Ebay, and this one does interest me. BUUUUT, with the current state of Ubisoft, I'll pass. I want to see the state of the game before buying. Coz if its a broken mess, cut content, with the story changed, mtx galore, and whatever else that Ubisoft usually manages to mess up, I'm going to hate myself for having sent them a big *** of cash for it.

    @eBay "I have already tried the automated assistant and the email portal multiple times, but my issue is not getting resolved. My account (ID: qai9676) is stuck on verification since April 20 and my funds are on hold. I need to speak with a human agent. Please help!"

    @eBay Spoke to a CSR when I called 2 weeks ago with an issue, now I'm trying to call the same number, no matter what time I call the recording states that I'm calling outside business hours. This is ridiculous and probably why eBay has lost sales. Please help

    @Sajeel_Purewal I think it would be really cool to use e-ink for a lil server display. Like one of those big server racks with a foldout keyboard and monitor, but it's e-ink. In fact, lemme get on ebay right now

    @hamburger317 Same model panel? Often when buying a screen off eBay, the seller will just send you the cheapest compatible panel, in my case I got an Innolux and haven't had any backlight bleed issues.

    Printers suck so bad, but I've cut down my usage like 90% since ebay made it possible to print labels at the usps office, just scan qr code and they print label, stick it on and ship, lifesaver

    @ctreid89 BMW wanted over 5k to change a turbo .. I went to YouTube university and fixed the issue myself for less than $100 . Didn’t need a new turbo at all and the issue is common. Imagine how many people they got over on when the part is on eBay for less than $100

    @eBay @eBay I can’t reach a live agent only automated replies. Chat doesn’t connect me to a real person, and my emails only get automated responses. Please connect me with a real agent and resolve my issue.

    Made the rookie mistake of pricing this high on eBay. Been selling around 5.5-5.8k so I listed at 8k since it still isn’t in just to have it ready. Well got multiple 7k offers so had to take it down. Cmon @PSAcard let’s get this shipped from the vault already.

    @symboltherapper Ah thanks! That's cool you work at USPS. Yeah it's a PS3 slim that I got from an eBay seller. I never had a slim and my phat launch model has trouble running a couple games so I figured I'd put on new thermal paste and install cfw if I get it. Was hoping this weekend.😜 oh well

    @Tuftenstein It’s a @Eurekavideo release. I think they are/were down to the last few copies, but I got this from eBay at a reasonable price. 👍

    @PeterGu4116162 Uh. Lol. It's 💯 true. Why would I lie about my eating habits?? Why would I lie about SNAP? Do you want to see my mom's rejection letter? The Salvation Army gave my brother a bag of spoiled food.... I have lots of junk I'm selling, but sales are extremely slow on eBay and it doesn't make much at all.

    @BattleByrd Let me tell you, right now I'm most excited for the parts I got off ebay to restore an old broken Gi Joe guy I was gifted.

    @LincolnLewis13 @Whiskeyth3nerd @BarryOnHere 2/2 - But it really comes down to what are you willing to sell them for imo. eBay might reach a broader audience that wants to buy them, but you might have to put up with fees from them. You can sell them on that website after making a profile.

    @eBay I can’t gain access to my return label due to technical problems on your website. I reported it numerous times but they’re not doing anything about it. Can you please resend me a new return label for the MTV t-shirt? Order number  06-14509-00586 Return ID: 5317791446

    @nationalpost Every now and then, this device or something similar used by the FBI is for sale on ebay for $50,000 and within an hour ebay takes it down. Sure, sms blaster but these guys are intercepting all your traffic if theyre spoofing your cell phone tower.
