eBay Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Claude C. Kenny (@pearintopeaches) reported@davidscottjaffe I'm most upset about Playstation (and likely other consoles in the future) locking down their ecosystem into one storefront. Buy from Sony at Sony prices. No longer pick up a title on clearance from Walmart, buy an import from Play Asia, buy a used game from Gamestop, or buy an out of print game from eBay. Just Sony. If they want to charge more because of their two-tiered pricing system, then you just have to put up or shut up. If they want to keep a game at its original retail price for the lifetime of the console, then they can. I just want multiple options. This shouldn't be a digital vs physical gamer issue. No "side" wins here if they go one route or the other. This is just a decision made to maximize Playstation's profits and gamers shouldn't be celebrating losing options so a multi-billion dollar company can be further in the black.

Mikel Jay Ef (@mikeljfernandez) reported@ItsKingSlime True story: he came after my ebay when I sold used second hand BBB automotive items (legally). Threatened legal action. I told to calm down. He did, indeed, not calm down.

Professor Victini (@ProfVictini) reported@TokenframeNFT Looks like a Ebay glitch, because normally they would have a — over the sold price if it’s best offer

Honest Abe (@BigAbe1863) reported@hadik1974 @BostonGlobe @eBay Going down the tubes? Bet you have no plans to move back to whatever ******** you are from Hadik.

Quasimodem (@Quasimodem60215) reported@EricRStPierre Aaarrgg!! Ten cent and twenty five cent pieces! And a 1961 Canadian 50 cent piece now costs about $50 on eBay, when you include tax and postage. I think the 1961 is just about the most beautiful of Canadian coins. 1961… the upside down year according to MAD Magazine

@leestafford (@LeeStafford) reported@davezatz The issue I have with fb marketplace is the folks that ask “is this still available” and they won’t reply when you tell them yes it is. Also cannot stand the folks that say “I’ll be there in an hour” and never show up. eBay at least is free of this nonsense.

Fred (@commanderfreddy) reported@MigoSpadezz i have a bunch of separate season dvds my gf hunted down across ebay but i know the complete series dvd box set is still in print, you can get it at barnes and noble (in the US at least, not sure about elsewhere)
-
tonberry (@cutetonberry) reported@Flynn176854 @97MikeJC @JoelJ_Garcia Ask Nintendo how it works. Not a single digital first party title goes on sale: pay the price Nintendo wants or don't play at all. At least with physical cards you can find nice prices on Amazon, GameStop on eBay. PlayStation follows with terrible digital discounts on 1st parties

🏀CurlyCat4UK🏀 (@CurlyCat4UK) reported@CLEV_Buckeye @262Peterson If you report a listing error to eBay, you’re exactly correct. They don’t care. Your only hope is to notify the seller, but as in my case, they might be hateful & retaliate. It’s so unnecessary & unwise to be a hateful eBay seller. Buyers are mostly just trying to help you.
-
MoonPieDreams (@MoonPieDreams) reported@nintendo_chall @AronOzmeir @Reggie Soooo what's you actual issue? Nintendo doesn't see a penny whether the gamer buys from eBay or the company that makes the M64. What's the problem? Free market. Legal.
-
FeelGoodCards (@FMJP50) reported@CardPurchaser You can’t use just one.. Way to many depend strictly on CardLadder which like MarketMovers is known for missing and not having updated sales, especially when using the scan option. You have to dig deeper if you’re trying to lock down some direct recent comps, like EBay sold items

Japan TCG Desk 🇯🇵 (@pokemonsamurai_) reportedThe pain points I hear from overseas Whatnot sellers: · Resellers on eBay have already marked up by the time they buy · Freight forwarders add cost and delay · They cannot read Japanese shop listings directly · They miss limited runs and campaign releases entirely These are Japan-side problems. They need a Japan-side solution.

Akshay Artwani (@Artwani_akshay) reported@askebay my account is suspended with MC999 and MC113 The problem is it was a new account i never purchased or sold on ebay and it was suspended within 10 mins of creation. Can you help? The automated bot isn’t allowing me to talk to anyone PLEASE HELP
-
Andy Jones Esq (@artistsbox) reported@CardPurchaser This has become maybe the biggest issue in the hobby. So many people use so many different sites to comp sales. You may use eBay they may use Card Ladder, and because of that, you can’t agree on a price.

Nathan Mott (@themanterrupter) reported@tanman0028 Thanks, they were limited edition. I think I am gonna order a bunch and put them up on Ebay. Cause they are great. I didn't make them, but they aren't copyright. Guy who made them, doesn't want to make any more. I think it's the star, makes it look like a badge. Kinda, if you squint. The cops didn't have an issue, I'd have to actually say I was some sort of Law Enforcement... But they don't let me wear it at Amusement parks and Events. I might have a little tweak with the design before I run up mine. It will be hell dealing with the stitching because it isn't all one color. Cause I can erase the star. All an embroider needs is a pattern. I wanna make stickers too. Democracy and Capitalism, God I love America!

Madmomma22 (@madmomma22) reportedHad to order a car part on EBay from Latvia (I have an 85 Mercedes 300 TurboDiesel) and it was an emergency brake cable that was out of stock everywhere in the U.S. apparently. The U.S. companies wanted me to order and pay for the part first, even though it was out of stock, and then they would ship it when it was back in stock. Since no one had them in the U.S. who knows how long I would have been waiting! I ordered on June 20th- it finally arrived today after going through customs in both countries, etc. This is the cost of NOT producing our own goods here in America and this is WHY I support tariffs. The tariffs and imports are part of why I had to wait, but it is a step on the road back to economic independence. There will still be things that we can and will trade with other nations, but we should never have handed away our core manufacturing abilities. In order to fix what is broken and keep us from being held hostage again by other countries, we have to accept our mistakes, stop what we are doing and fix it. There isn't any easier way than accepting there will be some pain in the process. We all have some responsibility in this mess so quit whining and suck it up.

Dame Artist Stanley 💜🤍💚 50s Woman (@artist_stanley) reported@ClarkesLatin eBay & Vinted are pretty good sites for buying quality curtains. Essential to know the size you want - esp on eBay & narrow down your search with known brands - John Lewis, Sanderson, Habitat etc. I cut off top off eyelet curtains, hem & add tape to make heading pencil pleat

The Kaspa Onion ꓘ (@thekaspaonion) reported@BitcoinTeacher_ Liquidity is how easily you can sell an asset for its current market value without significantly affecting the price. Bitcoin has very high liquidity because there are always buyers and sellers. A small meme coin may show your wallet is worth $10,000, but if there are only $1,000 of buyers at that price, you can't actually cash out the full amount. It's similar to selling on eBay: your item may be listed for $500, but until someone buys it, that value is only on paper. Another good example is think of a pokémon card You might have a pokémon card worth $20,000... So how many days will it take you to find someone who actually wants to buy it from you Bitcoin and micro strategy you don't have to worry about this problem... But with really small s*** coins and meme coins, you do

Serial_Designation_Bluejay (Tari_fan29) (@Tari_fan29) reported@lumiflavor Fr, I looked at EBay and that **** is ridiculous. And it’s so true that Glitch is making it scarce for no reason.

Polsia (@polsia) reported40% of the world's raw cashmere leaves Mongolia. Half its value never returns to the herders. Built Tuvshin to fix that. It runs listings, repricing, four-language buyer comms, and customs for small Mongolian exporters on Etsy, Amazon, eBay, Alibaba. Live soon.

Tuck (@TuckerArmen) reportedDude eBay ******* suuuuuuuuuuuuucks. Like literally the worst website ever invented. A very obvious money laundering scheme. I would be very very VERY upset if they did something like this to me. I don’t think any amount of money could fix the emotional distress caused
