    Get a radar key from eBay for £3 or so. Never an issue again.

    @RKH4658 I can see the value too. Not knocking collecting. Myself I have a few broken watches I am working on, some take me a year to fix up and I sell on eBay to a wonderful audience that love the repair journey. Everyone’s into something

    @Eman_8282 I’d fix it up and sell it on eBay. You get a pretty penny for it.

    @BSCNews The tokenization layer is the least interesting part of this post. What matters is that Courtyard's buyback runs 24/7 and settles in seconds, which is the actual problem crypto solves for collectors. You list a PSA 9 Charizard on eBay, wait days for the payout to hit your bank, lose 13.25% to eBay fees, and only transact when a buyer is awake. Move that same sale onto rails that settle instantly for pennies and a graded card becomes something you can actually move, not something you list and pray. The NFT is not the innovation. The rails underneath are. Most of these platforms are building NFTs when they should be building rails.

    @thenihiin $500K all day… No boxes alot of these look work so they aren’t dead stock resell market is down right now so you would be lucky to pull $200k out of this collection in a timely fashion. For every rare pair here there’s 10+ pairs sitting on EBay right now with no movement .

    Edgar (name altered for privacy) just lost an insane amount of data. His san server had a nice 7-8 year run but spontaneously gave up the ghost … and the manufacturer no longer supports it. So he went to eBay hoping someone, somewhere, still had what he needed. That happened to one of our buyers last week. Edgar found a unit we had, bought it from our Phoenix Solutions eBay store, dropped his drives into it … … and recovered all. the. data! He dm’d us overjoyed that what was lost was now found. Edgar even offered to ship us their failed unit, just so it could be properly recycled. In 15 years of selling on eBay, no one’s ever offered that. This surfaces an often overlooked aspect to circularity. It’s not only about extending the lifespan of tech. Circularity makes what’s obsolete and discontinued still available to all the Edgar’s out there, in a bind. ITAD services aim to keep as much as possible in use for as long as possible. That’s the heartbeat of circularity. Recycling is such a catch-all concept, and the significance of all that it stands for can be easily lost on us. So know that when you say “yes” to electronics recycling you saying “yes” to circularity and Edgar’s saved data. We’re so stoked for the happy ending (and hopefully Edgar gets some redundancy and backups in place, lol). It’s moments like this make a rather labor intensive process so worth it!

    @whitesuga1776 @DMcIntyreWWE He's not mad about the fans, because the real fans just say "Hey Drew, huge fan. Any chance I could get a selfie?" And accept his answer either way. The problem is people waiting to ambush him at his hotel/airport, which is usually people wanting signed pics to sell on eBay.

    @MattMcDevitt21 @CardPurchaser Unfortunately it’s way more common than you’d expect that eBay envelope tracking doesn’t ever fully go to delivered. If it hasn’t made it there by a couple weeks, 95% chance they’re lying and you got scammed, 5% chance shipping error

    @eBay I can’t reach a live agent only automated replies. Chat doesn’t connect me to a real person, and my emails only get automated responses. Please connect me with a real agent and resolve my issue.

    @LottoLabs I just got one from eBay, was like 500 cad, and it seems like it’s faulty vram too, I’m looking too see where I can get the tools and I’ll try to fix it. Says error code 43, but BIOS seems ok

    @eBay I see I'm far from the only one eBay has stolen money from. Sold an item, have a video of packing and sending, tracking through Ebay simple delivery says delivered. Ebay themselves confirmed this. Buyer opened a case, said nothing arrived and got a refund. Terrible scam company.

    @MichaelOrtiz79 @eBay Well, right away, you can see you're going to need a cockpit canopy. The first thing should be an inventory to see what other pieces are missing (use yojoe . com). Then, figure out any missing decals, broken items (like landing gear), etc. That's where I'd start.

    @CommerceGov 🔴 I collect specific tiny antique glass, mostly purchases on Ebay. There is an epic cringe every time I see the Seller shipped via USPS. Irreplaceable items broken, flat lost, galavanting about the Country and showing up a month later. NO, I DO NOT TRUST USPS WITH THE CENSUS!

    Most eCommerce brands don’t fail because of bad products. They fail because: • Poor listings • Weak creatives • No data-driven strategy Fix these → revenue follows. #Ecommerce #Walmart #Ebay

    @CardPurchaser I sold a card on eBay and I am 3 days late shipping it due to being in the hospital. I kept in touch with him and all was ok. Today he is wanting me to cancel cus the friend he was buying it for doesn’t want it. Does this look bad on me for canceling? Any issues with me canceling it?

    @jaredowen09 Alright - found some of your customers: Waterstones, Baby-walz, Simply Be, JD Sports, ebay, Debenhams, Homebase, Currys, Ninja, Schuh, Samsung, LEGO and Boden. Sound right? Going to use these to track down real prospects at your dream customers and map intro paths to them

    @LifelessMe3 @LegacyKillaHD Fact remains: game is playable across at least 3 generations of consoles (a PS3 is 50 bucks on ebay) and PC Ubi wants to milk the same set of animations and "climb tower go down do sidequests" gameplay loop some more instead of making new **** and you're okay with that somehow 🤡

    @PeterGu4116162 Uh. Lol. It's 💯 true. Why would I lie about my eating habits?? Why would I lie about SNAP? Do you want to see my mom's rejection letter? The Salvation Army gave my brother a bag of spoiled food.... I have lots of junk I'm selling, but sales are extremely slow on eBay and it doesn't make much at all.

    Guys I know this is SUCH a stretch but would anybody be willing to send me a $100 ebay gift card? If this makes you feel a BIT more secure, I do art commissions, but business has been SLOW and I really wanna get Tomodachi Life Live The Dream… 😓

    @eBay @eBay_UK can an irl person help me? I just won an auction in a boat, but I’m having trouble paying for it. Some reason it won’t let me do it in the app. And the website can’t find my purchases or sign in in my account. Idk but a human would be wonderful

    @eBay I just had a terrible experience with someone from your leadership team Josh! He refused to transfer me to a supervisor, and his behavior seemed erratic and distrustful of my concerns and questions This started because of a fraudulent seller who doesn’t seem to be removed

    @KWilhelm85 @johniibo No, you're statng eBay anecdotes. A fact would be that the Switch 2 clearing 20 mil in a year makes it the most successful console launch ever, something you seem eager to sidestep. If you don't like it, that's your problem.

    @iFixit Favourite repair win was my first bean to cup coffee machine on eBay, spares and repair for £50, nearly new and just a broken switch. Next up on the fix list is my retro Acorn Archimedes.
