eBay Issues Reports

    Roman Pioneer (@renoipgp) reported

    Japanese collector @moony_card just exposed an exact duplicate of his true 1/1 2018 PANINI PRIZM WORLD CUP Makoto Hasebe sitting in an @sgcgrading slab and currently up for auction on @eBay by Probstein123. This is the kind of situation that should make every collector nervous. All the 1/1 inserts that were supposed to be the special Scope Prizm version came out as regular Silver due to a factory mistake. Because of that error, the front of the card looks completely normal, no special Scope features. The only thing that makes it a 1/1 is the “1 of 1” stamp on the back.

    @TyCoTooCold @AverageSavageMB @CardPurchaser Maybe trying to sell off the stuff ppl have already turned down is not the best approach. My successful sales here are with ppl that love the hobby and like sports. It is not what not , and ppl can just go to ebay if they want a card.

    @ButterflyEm314 You can get some deals at garage sales. But some people like to post their stuff with eBay prices. The problem is so many don’t know how to check sold comps. They are only looking at list prices and they overprice their crap. That’s annoying.

    @usanoxp @voxtekEmployee and watch this end up costing like $1000 on ebay in 2 years for the error 😭

    @BourbonInvestm2 I “sell similar” every 2 weeks. Not an issue for the last 3 years on eBay.

    @LibertarianG0th Sadly yes. But I'm pretty sure eBay will also shut you down if they caught wind of you selling ***** socks.

  • KrexToken

    @KasMI353 Not sure if it is the same as in your project, but there is that old crypto payment system called CoinPal which allows you to easily implement KAS payments into any e-commerce platform and sync with all products, not just eBay. The problem is that the fees are very high and withdrawals are handled by a third party. How does this process work in your project?

    As a new seller on eBay, watching my watchlist number go down after sending offers is so disheartening

    @s_michaelsteele @ThrillaRilla369 Buy the movie outright on Blu-ray/DVD (cheap used on eBay) or digital ownership via iTunes/Amazon. No more surprise rentals, and you keep it forever. Streaming is built for subscriptions + upsells—ownership beats the game. Blockbuster nostalgia is fun, but this fixes the root issue.

    @HerbertMatthewJ @KabutoKing_ Even if COMC fixes their problems, COMC relies on ebay for much of its market.

  • iam_emmazzing
    Emma Zingerman (@iam_emmazzing) reported

    Hey @eBay. Can you help me understand why you restricted me indefinitely because I paid my store subscription every month and didn't list items? And why you think it's OK to charge me for a service you refuse to provide? Better yet, can someone with authority intervene & fix?

    @Blake5874 @CardPurchaser @eBay If you put minor issues in the description like any seller should. Then it would have passed.

    @d4nggibson @vxunderground The best thing about Dell hardware is getting it second hand cheaply from people going out of buisness because they were crazy enoug to shell for new Dell hardware, or big enough to not give a ****. Wdym it's a $250k server? It was $5k on ebay with 2 months of use on it.

    @THEandrew_ortiz @CardPurchaser I sold on eBay, I put them in a penny sleeve and top loader, had no issue but that’s for cards that are less then $15

  • bargainsportsco
    Bargain Sports Collectibles (@bargainsportsco) reported

    I have a person who has messaged me several times telling me they can get a card cheaper on eBay… Each time they’ve said that I say “go ahead and buy it for cheaper…” weird thing is I’ve never seen the comps go down…

    Most people think marketplace dominance in LatAm requires copying a US playbook. MercadoLibre proved the opposite. eBay actually tried to enter Brazil in 2001 and failed. The local player won not by copying, but by solving problems eBay never had to.

    PSA: If you find a glowing, pulsating rock in Central Park, do NOT try to sell it on eBay. S.H.I.E.L.D. will absolutely suspend your account and take your seller rating down to zero. 🙄

    @mediablasters1 Any insight on what's going on with the Gunsmith Cats license? Animeigo/MediaOCD had it for a bit, but it's weird that the Blu-Ray is out of print now going for $700 on eBay, while Riding Bean got a budget reprint without issue. 🤔

    Bought pimax micro oled in feb and the waiting is killing me. The more time goes on, the more people i see complain about software or hardware issues with them on reddit. I passed on 2 play for dreams on ebay. I swear if i see one more im cancelling the oled and getting the pfd.

    @PhoenixBlackNow Moral dilemma. I purchased an old Dell laptop for parts from eBay. (I needed the keyboard) I didn't get what I ordered. They guy sent me a working, better laptop of a different brand in error. He hasn't said anything - should I let him know?

    @phatjer300 @CardPurchaser @eBay I didn't see minor issues. I'm not a grader.

    @Ebay is holding funds until 3 days after delivery and says once you show a pattern of sales it will revert to payouts roughly a day after an item sells. The problem is it does not revert.....This is fraudulent and a potential class action lawsuit. #ebayseller

    @eran_rehes @AG_FintwiddyOnX @TomiLahren These are former tech execs often highlighted in discussions about Silicon Valley leadership: - Top left: Marissa Mayer, CEO of Yahoo (2012–2017). Yahoo's value cratered; sold to Verizon in 2017 for far less than its peak. - Top right: Elizabeth Holmes, founder/CEO of Theranos. Company collapsed after fraud revelations; convicted of wire fraud in 2022, serving prison time. - Bottom left: Meg Whitman, CEO of HP (2011–2015) and earlier eBay. HP saw revenue drops and market share loss; she also ran unsuccessfully for CA governor. - Bottom right: Anne Wojcicki, founder/CEO of 23andMe. Company faced data breaches, regulatory setbacks, layoffs, and financial strain; she stepped down as CEO amid investor pressure. Critics point to underperformance, scandals, or execution issues at their firms.

    @3vcollects @CardPurchaser $2 is like the base price of any single card when bought on eBay. Even 10-cent commons are $2. People need to understand this and stop trying to mark them down further, because eventually you won’t find cheap singles if people are losing money. They’ll stop listing.

  • shahf82
    Fadi (@shahf82) reported

    @imaysellit The listing fee is the smaller problem. eBay: 11.5% FVF plus $0.40 per order. On a $50 part that is $6.65 to the platform before ops. Add dimensional weight billing and return freight on heavy items. The order side bites harder than the listing side at volume.

    @enigma0451 It still had plenty of problems don't get me wrong. But once the internet made access to things like Ebay, other retailers, and import retailers available it wasn't even a competition.
