Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • TheHookUp1 The Hook Up (@TheHookUp1) reported

    How to get any item for free: 1. Buy an item on eBay with a high shipping cost. 2. After receiving, open a dispute that says the item is not working (lie). 3. Seller will be forced to either pay large return shipping, let you keep it, or eBay will refund you and debit seller.

    @eBay My account has been suspended, I have no idea why and all I get is generic responses. I use ebay loads and have never had a problem. What on earth is going on! please contact me! I'm desperate!

  • BaarMama Baar Mama (@BaarMama) reported

    @beefington420 That is nice, eBay has that issue too. Sometimes people won’t pay after “buying” something and that’s really annoying. Thank you!

  • RLeeroy13 guy, dad, dood. (@RLeeroy13) reported from Charlotte Harbor, Florida

    @HandyGingerGal At the house we renovated here in Florida I soldered the broken wires back onto the 1981 Sears garage door opener and fabricated a new plastic face that has the light bulb holder built into it. Bought a used pool heater and replaced the main control panel with one from ebay.

  • benbake_23 Ben Baker (@benbake_23) reported

    @CardPurchaser I think there’s multiple layers. I’d say for 95% of cards, current eBay auction results in a sold price below BIN comps. It’s essentially changing from a semi-blind auction to a normal auction. If you really want the card, you’ll keep bidding. I really don’t have an issue.

  • EdwardPower13 Teacher, football fan and short man. (@EdwardPower13) reported

    @AskeBay my ebay account has been suspended and I have no idea why! I use ebay loads and haven't had any issues at all. Please help! I'm desperate! AHHHHH!

  • homerepaired Ed M (@homerepaired) reported

    @ihysosa The problem is not people that need deodorant. The problem is people fill trash bags full of this kind of stuff just to sell it on eBay.

  • TheKnudson 𝕿𝖍𝖊 𝕶𝖓𝖚𝖉𝖘𝖔𝖓 (𝕻𝕮) (@TheKnudson) reported

    @biggsdaddycool If the card isn’t worthy of extended bidding there will be no more bids, so what’s the issue? If it’s worthy of extended bidding there will be more bids and the seller and eBay make more money. As a buyer it doesn’t change my snipe. It’s still my max bid.

  • TBD47093108 TBD (@TBD47093108) reported

    @ThrillaRilla369 eBay! Probably down the road What’s left of it. Maybe Temu & you?

  • yoaveragejo 💯 (@yoaveragejo) reported

    SOMEBODY GOTS TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT EBAY AUTHENTICATION AND THE LONG *** SHIPPING TIMES!!!! No way a buyer pays $15-$20 in shipping and still have to wait 2 damn weeks to get what we purchased. @eBay FIX IT NOOOOWWW!!!! 😡😡😡😡😡

  • KlbSpurs Kevlar THFC (@KlbSpurs) reported

    Was walking down the road in London. A bloke stopped his car and asked me " What's the best way to Selfridges?" I said "Just stick them on Ebay mate"

  • DueProcessIggy Due Process (@DueProcessIggy) reported

    You know that CA has decriminalized the theft of under $1K from stores? I haven't shopped at a mall for a long time either, but online shopping is no fun, not now. Early on, it was decent. Now, unless you shop nearly anywhere other than Amazon, eBay, et al, all you get is a picture of what they sell, maybe some details, and then it ships to the vicinity of your front door, signing for it no longer exists, and if it gets stolen or is broken, all you'll get is a refund. They socialize the loss by spreading the cost over all their inventory, so we pay for it anyway, we just don't feel it.

  • mustBtragic mustBtragic (@mustBtragic) reported

    @Iromg ai is the absolute worst! like the ai chat bots on line that come back with "sorry can you reword your questions". tried to test ai on ebay selling a nurse watch clip on brooch - ai put it down as watch with strap waterproof - i specifically ticked the box to say NOT waterproof!!

  • CarlFunkenstein Carl Funkenstein (@CarlFunkenstein) reported

    @gurucollects @NEOCards_Comics This is so long overdue. I hate it that the person with a crazy last second bid wins the auction. I’ve lost so many items because of this. Frankly, I’m disappointed it took EBay this long to fix their process.

  • irisnarcotique milena 🫒 (@irisnarcotique) reported

    I have so much work to catch up on so obviously I’m starting a list of all the discontinued MAC lipsticks I need to hunt down on eBay

  • Kedarksk Kedar Karambelkar (@Kedarksk) reported

    ePost Global shipping is painfully slow, their complaint system is broken and they’re nowhere on social media. Asendia handles shipping so much better. Why does eBay still use ePost Global?

  • kiratachibana Tachibanana Kira(橘吉良) @AX2025 (@kiratachibana) reported

    @YimanStyle @rayotsuka I will chase you down if I see it on ebay or any marketplace. LOL

  • rustysteelwool R/S/W 🍃🌻 🕊 🏔️ (@rustysteelwool) reported

    @ValueAddedRS is so cutting edge, I bet she already knows this, but eBay’s app is sending lots of promotional messages I have no interest in, but not the Best Offer messages I rely on. Another day, another broken function.

  • CardboardAnnie Cardboard Annie (@CardboardAnnie) reported

    @jtscardswap @natemcg13 @VintageHobbyGuy Yeah, eBay about to close down. Confirmed.

  • The_Xyz15 zysis (@The_Xyz15) reported

    Had a similar thing; washing machine let out beeps, called a guy, he LIED TO ME so I sent him off for $80 call out and then downloaded the user manual, looked up the beep code, ordered the part on ebay. Guy who came said it was a "rare part and hard to find" which I found in about 3 minutes. He said it would cost $300 to fix and the part cost me $7 and was delivered to my door 4 days later.

  • LVBookie LV ****** (@LVBookie) reported

    @ThoseBackPages @eBay Very hard to imagine 10 dollar cards are being held up constantly. I can’t remember the last time I sat and bid as an auction wound down

  • meetNataliaK ꧁Natalia Knight꧂ Oakland/SF | Cincinnati 7/25-8/2 (@meetNataliaK) reported

    @MsSummerReid I have a few vintage pieces like it, but i went down the rabbit whole last night and found a bunch on etsy, ebay an thread up, for a fraction of the normal amount, bought three older styles, so excited to see them on, thank you for sharing the deets.

  • rogerrogerspor1 RogerRoger (Mike) (@rogerrogerspor1) reported

    @ThoseBackPages @eBay That’s the real problem with it. Bots They will just have to add one more line. Their top price Now it is just set to .99

  • AndyOterson Andy Oterson (@AndyOterson) reported

    @SLVRsport @NEOCards_Comics I have no problem with automatic payment (I’m a buyer). My big issue is eBay doesn’t let you use a gift card for automatic payment

  • Andrewdeeeeee Andrew and Rosie Rips (@Andrewdeeeeee) reported

    @FaerghusM These Chinese ones are $40 right now on eBay!! Not terrible.

  • RoryDuncan1966 Rory Duncan (@RoryDuncan1966) reported

    @PGrumpman1 Yes, Paul. Ebay works. One must set up a paypal account or something of that nature. A mate of mine and I traded vinyl for years on eBay with no issue whatsoever

  • mcfarm21 Rick McKee (@mcfarm21) reported

    @hands916 There are about 8 different print errors air brush versions. Maybe more. People try tell sell them for thousands of dollars on eBay. It’s a running joke/scam in the hobby. I’ve thought about collecting all of them, but my wants are too big as it is.
