Corner Card Collector (@CCCollectorTCG) reportedWhen selling on eBay if you see a third-party shipping company do you have issues or concern shipping the card? I always seem to have problems with ship my cards.

Mr Hankey (@hivanchi) reported@eBay your platform is hurting buyers(im also a seller) The return process is broken. Theres no way to talk to people in the US, either by message or call. Some of your reps read the same script over and over again. Ask you for useless information that leads nowhere.

T-Bob Hebert (@TBob53) reportedI remember getting this issue in a giant haul from eBay when I was younger
-
Jenny Jen Jennifer VCR Queen (@vcrqueenjen) reported@FoxgirlGoRawr Yep! Overall, I've not had terrible luck with returns given the amount of things I've sold on ebay but it does happen from time to time & for some cursed reason I've had a few returns in the past couple weeks. It's abnormal to have multiple in such a short time and I don't like it lol

XRPL Forum (@xrpforum) reported@FinanceLancelot Was on the phone with eBay today, the agent told me with humor he basically does not have to do anything anymore, its all handled with AI Agents that make all the decisions and process the issues, he's literally just there because we want to speak to real people still.

rack$ (@mnstacks) reportedHe built an autonomous Grok Bot named Reaper, handed it his credit card debt and told it to pay off his credit card debt for him. He gave the bot its own computer in the cloud and access to his email. Then he basically said: “This debt is your problem now. Don’t ask me for money. Just report back every night.” What Reaper actually did • canceled old subscriptions he’d forgotten • talked the credit card company into a lower interest rate • moved most of the balance to a 0% card • got a couple of charges refunded • sold his unused PlayStation and monitors on eBay • put every extra dollar it found toward the debt I spoke to him and he said he plans to work on more upgrades and refine its function He is fully onboard and will join the community to tell us about his future plans Ca;

Sean (@firinzlol) reported@ThePokeMD It’s fine had a similar issue before. eBay rep basically said if it is a fake card then it will always get rejected so this “miscategorization” isn’t related to authenticity etc

David Eyes (@EyesDavid88066) reported@benonwine Ready for some enterprising youngsters to go and take down the tents and eBay them. Used once only.

NVSportsCards (@NVSportsCards) reported@CardsMax If Comc didn’t take 6 months to process or ship, they could have caused real problems for ebay.

Mike-E (@ATXCollectibles) reported@yanxchick A4: one of my 1/1 Colt McCoy Longhorn cards I communicated with the seller for about 6 years on eBay and YouTube until he was willing to come down to what I was comfortable paying. Originally asked $2k and I ended up paying $500.

Artamos (@Artamos_) reported@MommaOcco eBay and other retailers that have 3rd party sellers need to crack down on presale/preorder listings. Should be only on hand product
-
Mr Hankey (@hivanchi) reported@eBay and sellers game the feedback removal. Removed negative feedback that was left after legitimate issue with an order.
-
Gerard Hughes ( @ghhughes.bsky.social ) (@ghhughes) reported@selStreams @austeregrim @RDKLInc You can't buy CPAPs, for example, on eBay. They are class II medical devices and their requires a doctor's prescription. Some people have tried to get around that by selling a CPAP travel bag for $300, which just so happened to have a CPAP in it. But eBay has cracked down on that, too. Not all medical devices require a prescription, though.

Sweethoneyxd (@Gods_sunset) reported@JRho_11 Starting the video w/ that musty *** helmet he prob got off eBay is insane. Literally hit record while putting the helmet in frame andddd putting his top down. Mean time he prob circling an empty parking lot

Terence Smith (@SocialistTerry) reportedSo I made a complaint, got auto response saying no regulations broken. Appealed, response 12 hours later saying same 😯😳 @eBay_UK @eBay Why do you allow sellers to defraud buyers by letting them cancel the order, change the price, ask them to reorder, & hope they won't notice?

Tyler (@SeeifIhaveit) reportedBeware of this eBay seller. Purchased a J Baez lot when he was hot and I had to cancel and refund him because it sold on Mercari probably 15 minutes prior. He purchased it literally as I was taking down the eBay listing. I messaged him and apologized and refunded him immediately. Well… he left negative feedback and said he never got the cards.

Ripper (@ripper0x) reported@anglio @eBay this is terrible

Eric (@GhostRunnerCard) reported@CCCollectorTCG I ship via eBay to third-party shipping companies almost daily. I've never had any concerns or issues with them. All the orders work out fine.

Adam Taylor (@adamtaylorl) reportedMe at 20: - £50K/year at Jaguar Land Rover - Acting team leader, dream job by every measure - Watching agency videos in the car park on my lunch break Me at 24: - $100M+ generated on Meta - Scaled a brand in LA from $90K to $2.1M/mo in 7 months - 40+ team members, run from Dubai My first money online was flipping scooter parts on eBay at 13. I opened my own bank account for it. Nobody told me to. I just wanted a bike and needed to make £200 to afford it. Fast forward. Late 2022 I bought an Iman Gadzhi agency course and landed a client in 2 months. They paid £900/month. I was going to say £1,000 and bottled it at the last second. Then 7 months passed and I made £80. In total. I didn't tell my friends what I was doing. I barely even told my family. There was nothing to show anyone, so I just went quiet and kept going. I handed in my notice at JLR in July 2024. Everyone at the factory thought I'd lost it – to them I was walking out of a job people wait 20 years for. So I flew to Bali alone in early 2025. I knew nobody there. I wasn't a huge fan of Bali. Then I moved to Thailand 30 days later. Hit $50K/mo whilst there. Then $100K. Now I'm living in Dubai and the business does more in a month than JLR paid me in four years. The crazy part is I wasn't good at this. I was terrible for a long time. I just kept putting in long hours and watching what happened until some of it started working. And I'm still doing that. The same method, just with bigger numbers. If a 13-year-old selling scooter parts to fund a bike can turn it into this, you're fine. Win each day. That's the whole thing.

Zack Morris (@Palladin0) reported@packaddictsnw Never had an issue w eBay standard shipping once. Most likely buyer being shady

Mojo 🇺🇸 (@QMojo8) reported@OffDaHook35 Sold some slabs at LCS today and narrowed my pc down to a small box. I have a 2000 card lot on eBay to sell the rest. A lot are cards from packs I ripped this year. LCS wouldn’t even look at them

🦊 (@whatthefox___) reported@kaetoceros Only people on eBay are paying that much and the sales are slowing down. People at my locals were selling them for 150

Alison Scott 🐻 (@bnosilagm) reported@CalBearsHistory Every time these are brought out for the season count down I have to tell myself to stay away from Ebay. I really don't need another thing to collect.

Kiro (@KiroIkigai) reportedThe most reliable way to misread an earnings report is to start at the bottom line. $GME just posted preliminary net income up roughly 78% on net sales down roughly 19%. Both numbers are real. Only one of them is about the business. The quarter, company figures: -net sales: $780M to $800M, vs $972.2M a year ago -net income: $290M to $310M, vs $168.6M -operating income: $150M to $170M, vs $66.4M The bridge from falling sales to rising profit is one line. Roughly $238M of gains on an eBay derivative asset and an equity investment, less roughly $75M of digital-asset losses. about $163M of pre-tax marks. For scale: that eBay exposure is carried at about $4.947B. the company books about $790M of sales in a quarter. when the portfolio is that big, the income statement is partly a report on the portfolio. Credit where due: operating income more than doubled. that is a bigger percentage jump than the net income line everyone quotes. smaller, tighter, better-run retailer. real progress. not the headline story. Keep this part: -net income up while revenue is down: find the non-operating line first. it is usually one line, and it is usually named -size the securities book against the operating result. a $5B position swamps a sub-$200M quarter, in both directions -falling sales with improving operating income is a cost story. real, but a different story from the headline I am fully invested, and none of this changes that. guidance direction and price reaction have been disagreeing all earnings season. last Thursday five of seven reporters raised guidance and four of the seven closed lower. reading the price as the verdict on the numbers is the error. The case against: I may be underselling the operating turn, which more than doubled at every point of the guided range. and these are preliminary figures. no call is scheduled, and complete results are due September 8. $GME $EBAY

Hysterian (@HysterianYT) reported@SonicBlueRanger The prices for them on eBay aren’t terrible in all fairness, given that not all that many copies were published. It just depends if you’re willing to spend anywhere from £30 to nearly £50 a piece for them.
