    Seriously @eBay_UK @eBay have you still not fixed issues? I've just placed biggest order I ever made on your platform and can't check the details. You wonder why don't get big spenders 🙄 @AskeBay

    Found four issues of late Eerie Magazine that translated a story of Paul Gillon's Spacewrecked and ordered what I could from a local place and got the rest on Ebay. Living large!

    @sincespacies How are Arcade 1ups now? I pre ordered 2 of their first. Dead pixels, paint coming off (they sent me a peice of plexiglass instead of using better paint). Lot of issues. Put my second on eBay without opening it. Liked the idea.

    Why are @eBay so impossible to get support from? You cannot send them an email with a request, you have to find the exact scenario in the help section (never matches) then chat to some bot before you can get anywhere. Terrible!

    @az0zone @eBay @amazon This is a bit more reasonable. The problem we had in the states is that cards were available for sale for only seconds or not at all. They simply went from coming soon to sold out almost instantly. Scalpers run rampant here.

    Just ordered a N64 with Mario Kart 64 along side it👍👍 I ain't trying to spend $50 and don't hit me with "wait so you have no problem spending over $50 for a used console and game off eBay....but you DO have a problem spending $50 for a whole year for the same game and others?"

    @DwijaBaxi I was that toddler. Ebay purchase broken electronics - radio, cassette player, ask them to dismantle and then for extra points, to reassemble without skipping any parts. Get them Lego Technics designed for 5 years over their age.

    @thekylemeister1 @ACPocketNews ikr? i caved and got 4 packs for like $65 on ebay ;v; (plus tax n shipping OTL) i swear we gotta haggle to try bring the prices down... (they shouldn't even be reselling them at high prices anyway🙄)

    @Reece43615030 @AskeBay Been having this same problem for PS5s. I am down $1500 from scammers because ebay support doesn’t care about their customers. You have to go in person to the shipping carrier and ask them for proof that the tracking wasn’t delivered to your address, bc they can’t do it online.

    @UdesignsM I stick to eBay because of all the Etsy horror stories. Sales are slow on eBay recently too.

    For eBay sales, do you require payments immediately or not? Haven’t had a problem yet but I’m worried about one that ended. Any tips? #ebay #baseballcards #thehobby @CardPurchaser

    @eBay What on earth have you done to the My Ebay page, it's now broken and doesn't display properly. Please can I have the option to change back to before your latest update?

    Call me a cynic, but I wonder if the folk at @WalkersCrisps are watching folk pay between 5 and 10 quid a bag on eBay are thinking We should have no problems putting the price up in the new year. #crispshortage

    @n64thstreetgifs @OhPoorPup YESSSSSSS I wish I had kept the screen on mine years ago. It was broken when I got it so I sold it on ebay. If I still had it I could have taken it to Christa!

    Fun fact: I am not allowed to sell on eBay. Had zero problems for years until I did a clear out of DVDs … then 9/10 were marked for negative feedback. Turns out DVDs are @eBay_UK code for drugs and buyers were disappointed to receive actual DVDs rather than drugs.

    @BobMeatwad @Kotaku Take Fallout 76 - they had massive problems with people getting super-rare guns and selling for ludicrous amounts on ebay. But if I want one, I can still technically make my own in-game. A unique nft gun creates the same scenario, except only the top rich dude can get it.

    @Parcel2Go I’ve sent a few parcels through this company and have to say had nothing but problems- consumers need to report this to watch dog and trading standards- no customer service contacts no phone numbers- eBay are holding funds as a result!!

    @sportsstuffhub @eBay So many high end cards. They basically screenshotted monster cards for months, then bulk listed them all today and are gonna try and make a killing then disappear. Shut it down @ebay

    @rileyrossmo1 I haven't read that one! Even checking on ebay just now confirms how hard it is to track down...

    @TMobile I have a problem with T-Mobile misleading commercials, the claim is iphone 13 on us, it’s not really though, Verizon gives free phones, T-Mobile says free phone with trade in, that’s not a free phone, that phone will still sell for 5-600 on eBay

    @AskeBay Currently my message service in eBay is not working. I am trying to correspond with a seller. Need help asap.

    @SpoonSnooper No problem at all! I wish I could help out with the emeralds, but they were loot crate exclusives. I only managed to get the whole set through an ebay listing. Getting them all through loot crate had to have been hard for the seller...

    @Fightincowboy I would love cowboy I felt let down by Bandai namco because they didn’t email me , was going to by one from eBay but it wouldn’t be delivered until the 18th that would mean I miss the dates , plus they where moremoney than the actual game I preorder thanks 🙏

    John Squires (@FreddyInSpace) reported

    @BatQuinn5801 Yeah that is definitely a problem. I generally have a policy where I don't buy them on eBay, I just get what I can find out in the wild. Have found some real good ones at my local book sales. But many of them I'm sure I'll sadly never come across.
