eBay Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Mancgas (@mancgas) reported@SteveMowat4 @timothy1883_ Problem is when they say welfare as a big number include state pensions&all benefits paid above SRA due to state pensions being one of lowest in Europe. Taxing Amazon Costa and eBay etc for real profits made in UK would raise far more than fiddling on margins of rest of benefits

Polsia (@polsia) reportedMost ecommerce businesses can't afford the pricing intelligence large retailers have. Built PulseIQ to fix that. It monitors competitors 24/7 across Amazon, Walmart, and eBay, automatically adjusts your prices, and alerts you when the market shifts. Now every seller can compete.
-
Jared Bray (@tresamigos858) reported@CardsMax Especially when the alternative selling on eBay is 83-87% on the high side. Or risk total sales price on a consignment. Or grind for days finding views to get someone to buy the card. I have no problem paying someone for the relationships they’ve developed that I haven’t
-
Jimmy Nyström (@JimmyWinrar) reportedWhen $GME acquires another large block of these call options and issues shares to fund their exercise, $GME holders could effectively receive $EBAY exposure at a steep discount to the proposed buyout price. Call it dilution if you want. The end result may still be control. The more interesting possibility is that @ryancohen never expected—or even wanted, the eBay board to accept the initial offer. A rejection creates the justification for a more aggressive, openly hostile strategy. If that was the plan from the beginning, this was never a failed bid. It was the opening move.
-
Polsia (@polsia) reportedEnterprise retailers pay teams to monitor competitor prices 24/7. Most sellers can't. Built Pricepulse to fix that. It watches Amazon, Walmart, eBay — then reprices your listings automatically so you stay competitive without watching the screen. Live soon.
-
Kalev Karo (@kalevkaro) reported@NomadCards Sneaker collector here. This is exactly why I use Afterpay for every sneaker purchase. Why would I give Goat/StockX/eBay 100% of the money before I’m able to make sure they’re real and not damaged? I’ll give you 25% so if there is a problem I’m only waiting on that to be refunded
-
Terry Shadley (@TheTerryShadley) reported@MotleySchuh Most people don’t have the time but selling cards on eBay is easy once you have your “system” down. I can post 50 cards in 15 minutes. The true base really can just be tossed or given away, but I’m always surprised at some of the cards I sell.
-
Justin The Guy (@wessonlsu) reported@PacoDePerro @eBay Yeah. My son got scammed by a seller and @ebay solved the issue by suspending my sons account without a refund.
-
HeroAssange (@HeroAssange) reportedEbay share price is up $2 today Thats means Gamestop has an increased unrealised gain of $86 million since market open Result = GME down 0.8% 📉
-
bad robot ventures (@foxenflask) reportedeBay has the brand and platform to be the YouTube of live shopping but they can’t get their act together for simple things like automated emails to customers explaining why their accounts are being auto-suspended by their grandmas AI system that $EBAY has policing the backend. @ryancohen and $GME please fix things like this ASAP when you get in there. eBay’s CTO seems to be behind the curve.
-
TrailTechPCs (@TrailTechPCs) reported@eBay just so you know it’s 2026. It shouldn’t take 30 days to verify a debit card. You’re holding my damn payout from a a sale for a month because of bank card change. Absolutely ridiculous. You’ve had no problem taking money from the same card over and over again on purchases I’ve made. Pricks!
-
MangiMi (@MangiMi2) reportedReceived a card today. Immediately noticed a really nice dent that was never listed in the eBay description. The seller (small consignment) says in their description that all marks, dents, blemishes will be listed and if it’s not, any visual marks are from the camera or the card case itself and not on the card). The card was listed as “near mint” and went to eBay authentication. Authentication is not a grading company and they occasionally let a lot slide , so when you receive it back and you notice clear major issues with the card and contact the seller, should the seller accept a return in this case or should eBay need to intervene? When I contacted @bogey1979 aka cards2consignment and Bogey Breaks, he said the markings weren’t there when shipped. I sent him a photo with his own listing showing the indent but explained that since his description says all marks will be noted and if it isn’t noted the card is as listed, he said I should take it up with eBay. Now clearly this guy knows he’s wrong, but he’s choosing to try to wash his hands of his error or clearly deceptive listings to get max value. Should eBay be responsible when sellers act in bad faith like this? Either way, never buy or deal or break with this guy as you will most likely end up with a similar situation. My suggestion is you add him to the do not do business list and/or block guys like this so the hobby isn’t tainted with people who are profiting off detective tactics. @CardPurchaser

Excellent Driver (@newconciousness) reportedIn the first instance, an INR was filed by the buyer. Ebay opened and closed the case within 5 days. A refund to the buyer was issued and the funds were clawed back from my bank account a month or so later. In the second instance, "issues" were found with the card and the buyer
-
Excellent Driver (@newconciousness) reportedAt worst, @ebay has a credibility problem that has persisted for many years now. Fix your problems or suffer. That's my best advice to you as a business partner to millions of people on the planet.
-
Kal5 (@Kal5_) reported@hamati351840512 @prisma_illya US release of season 1 is not sold anywhere anymore. (unless it is $300 or more on ebay, and that's rare) You can buy season 2/3 US just fine at normal price As to why, I would like to know. But releasing another season in the US when you can't buy the first season is a problem.
-
tebin (@tebin) reported@ngdevteam Please, you really should expand shipping to Mexico; I always miss out on all your games :( Shipping isn't the issue, but I refuse to buy from scalpers on eBay.
-
Sparks Cards & Collectables (@Sparks_Cards) reported@49ersSFGiants1 @tm1515152005 Be careful with eBay AI descriptions. I find errors all the time. It will sneak in “Autographed by player” or “graded by PSA” even if it’s not. AI descriptions are a red flag for me
-
SlingSh0t (@MrSlingsh0t) reported@footworkoffical @cutty03bk I mostly have problems with new drops where a seller will just change their mind and hold for a higher price once they confirm. I even experienced that behavior on eBay, although it’s rare But, like I said, I have goat credit to burn so we’ll see how the next one goes 🤞🏼
-
Atrain (@Northwest_coins) reported@BlastoiseBaller @DannypTCG Ebay doesn’t require shipping within a few days. You can specifically put that you intend to ship in one month or two months and as long as the person wants to pay for it and buy it then it’s not a problem. I just bought a card and had Ebay ship it to PSA for me. Four months.
-
wyatt.today (@wyatttoday) reported@strangecapers92 as a seller, never had an issue with a depop buyer. ebay is so garbage now I don’t even bother with it anymore
-
bad robot ventures (@foxenflask) reportedeBay has the brand and platform to be the YouTube of live shopping but they can’t get their act together for simple things like automated emails to customers explaining why their accounts are being auto-suspended by their grandmas AI system that they have installed. @ryancohen and $GME please fix things like this ASAP when you get in there.

Wax & Refractors (@waxnrefractors) reportedMercari is a great platform for selling low end sports cards: quick listings, east to search stores, 10% fees and 49¢ shipping up to 3 oz. The problem? Four cards are automatically treated as 4 oz, forcing Ground Advantage. Let sellers adjust the weight like eBay does, and I might sell exclusively there. @mercari_app #sportscards
-
EVILiNNside (@EVILiNNx) reportedThat create an account or wait until a place is open just to see their menu is so ******* retarded or ebay moving the search bar after 20 years. Some ******* retarded gets paid a shitload for these terrible ideas. Im trying to track down who keeps changing streetlights in my area
-
Woke Moe (@WOKE_MOE) reported@GalvStudios22 Been trying to track down a copy of this one forever, eBay prices are just a smidge too much for me. 50+ USD is a bit wild imo
-
Jared Bray (@tresamigos858) reportedIf you’re netting less than 83% check your advertising % and seller performance. Both are a fixable problem and can contribute to the lower sales proceeds. I’ll go to eBay under certain conditions: 1. Rare/low pop card where views matter to get my price. Less liquid cards.
-
Justin The Guy (@wessonlsu) reportedMy son got scammed by a seller on @ebay. He used their processes to try to claw back the money. They permanently suspended his account, without addressing the issue. Cool way to treat a kid @ebay
-
Miss Night Demons (NEW ACCOUNT) (@MissNightDemons) reported@SirCMTusk I had the money at different points to get it on ebay but i turned down every chance cus i either didn’t have the money or i had more then enough money but the sleepaway camp vhs was the cheapest i ever seen a sleepaway camp vhs 😫

🇺🇸 Tyler 🇺🇸 (@SiideTrack) reportedJFC @SamsClub wtf are you doing with these Pokémon drops?? Allowing more than 2 boxes per person just because they somehow have 50 memberships theyll just cancel as soon as tbeh get home is absolutely PART OF THE ******* PROBLEM. ******* ******* resell them on ebay for $200
-
Excellent Driver (@newconciousness) reportedProceeds to examine the card with a hyperscoped magnifying glass (if that's a thing). The authenticators shouldn't be using all that to GRADE RAW cards. Period. Naked eye, no software, no cameras, no computers. No AI bullshit. @eBay has an accountability problem at least.
-
SimpleJack (@SimpleJack) reportedThose who claim that @RyanCohen has done nothing since taking over as chairman of the board and subsequently as CEO are one of 3 things. 1. Mentally challenged 2. Extremely lazy to the extent is appears they are mentally challenge, or 3. A paid shill A comprehensive longitudinal history of $GME SEC filings since 2001 broken down by filing designation. So if you will continue to insist that he has done nothing, I beg you to debate me here in the comments blockheads explainin yourself. It institutional @eBay should holder have not evaluated this they very well should.
