The Actual Bruno (@theactualbruno) reported@SteveLovesAmmo Your post was exactly what I need this morning Steve. I was laid off last year and then the severance ran out. No luck finding something new so I started an LLC last month to sell on eBay. It has been slow going ramping up but your post reminded me, I CAN DO THIS!! THANK YOU!!

FloridaSandy (@floridasandy25) reportedUS tariff updates: eBay does not hold tariff payments and cannot issue tariff refunds—import fees are collected and passed through to U.S. Customs I would think US Customs could refund the illegally collected tariffs

James T. Gordon (@jamestgordon) reportedEdgar (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!

Kura (@Kurafi) reported@AeolidBranch Problem is i have to buy them from ebay or smth cuz i could only find some korean cards here locally 🙃
-
Peter Green (@plugwash) reported@BringBackBanjoK @Vexinator The problem with sites like ebay is there is a substatial risk of counterfiets.
-
JAM92 (@JAM92_) reported@PoliteDKnight @eBay @eBay you should make this right. Give this person their money back and let them keep the card for the trouble you caused.

Dinah Tyranno 🍖🦖 (@DinahTyranno) reported@nagichi_boop @lockwayart @glitch They actually lied to me when I bought one and said that eBay was the one changing their listings with AI.
-
Robert California (@ChefWeeeee) reported@eBay sarr please your website is not work kindly fix
-
James Bennett 🏳️🌈🇺🇦🌈 (@UncleUrdnot8291) reported@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.

Khan Noonien Singh (@wtfcetialpha5) reportedPhysical DVDs are cheaper than streaming now. My latest purchase from eBay includes the Quarantine movies and the House on Haunted Hill 1/2. And a terrible set of Ouija Possession ones that I will watch in shame. Delicious terrible shame.
-
Nico78 (@Nico78897) reported@NinWire Scary situation with the example of the game keycard for Borderlands 4 on eBay that went up for sale. Someone bought and found it only returned an error code as nothing is on the cartridge. Obviously that game was cancelled but the cartridge was legit. Fate of all key cards.
-
Silence DoGood (@ModernSilenceDG) reported@RightsRule250 @grahamformaine @VictoriaLJohnso You’re using a platform made and operated by millionaires and billionaires. On a phone or computer made and maintained by millionaires and billionaires. Same with Amazon, EBay, etc… But sure, nothing has ever trickled down…. 🙄
-
marksanderson (@marksander16740) reported@eBay I have they don't know how to fix anything
-
Fadi (@shahf82) reported@VOC_ai Same pattern on eBay. Analyzed defect feedback across 50K listings and most "not as described" cases traced back to the same 4-5 fitment description fields. Fix the template, not individual tickets. On eBay, defects hit search visibility directly, so the cost shows up faster than a star rating drop.
-
Scruffy (@scruffycitytv) reportedThis is a great step forward @eBay! BUT, the biggest fix would be AUTO PAYMENTS. All that’s going to happen is what always happens. The buyer just ghosts. No responses or anything. Then it auto cancels the auction sale after 4 days and I’m back to listing it again. So it didn’t help much. Auto charging fixes everything and gets rid of shill bids as well.
-
Squirrel with Glasses 𓅃🎧🪩 (@glassysquirrel) reported@Angie_BoPeepers plus it's probably fixable, I get free stuff from dumpsters or FB marketpace all the time and the worst thing I have encountered is a broken switch on a Dewalt chop saw, which was $6 bucks from ebay
-
JLB ECampHQ (@ECamphq) reported@eBay I need help with my funds. My payout failed due to a bank issue and was returned. I updated my new bank details, but it’s been over 30 days and I still haven’t received my payment. I’ve tried contacting support many times but got no response. Please assist&release my funds
-
Ronald Robson (@RRobson90195) reportedI was scammed on your site buying memory out of 269 dollars. The person used a false tracking number sent to someone else's address and name according to UPS. I contacted eBay and they told me it shows delivered so they said I got it. I feel let down.
-
Bob (@8NH1137) reportedQuite torn on what to do now. 🤔 There is a newer lens in my area that's 150-450mm, but also double my original budget for a lens. Do I just suck it up and take the hit money wise or keep gambling on finding a good lens on ebay? I'd be so sad if I got another broken one..
-
Ryan (@RyanCaseCLE) reported@Richard_Colo @eBay I’ve had so many @eBay issues being a seller similar to this, was a seller since ‘05 and walked away due to unfair treatment of sellers and piss poor customer service.
-
hungry lizard 🦎🌌 (@DreadedVendetta) reported@PlushSonicReal Whenever you see an almost broken 3DS being sold on eBay or Facebook, this is what the previous owner treated it like lmao
-
TBlake (@therealtblake) reportedeBay. I bought four or five and wanted to sew in laptop holder etc and just never got around to it. I’d be down to make them if people were interested
-
lownoise26 (@almostme2696) reported@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
-
HowlingBunghole (@HowlingBunghole) reportedThanks a lot, jerk hole! I went looking for this book on eBay and I fell down a rabbit hole where I spent over $50 bucks on Mack Bolan novels.
-
Paul (@dnbinvestor) reported@IndexAndForget Paid £6k for my Submariner back in 2020. I could’ve sold it on ebay the next day for £10k. That’s why there are 2 year waiting lists for them. They have come down a bit in value recently though but long term you’ll never lose money on one plus it’s a nice item to pass down in the future with memories attached to it.
-
Threevee (@darealthreevee) reported@KLeinzz0xL Just a hobby. I buy cheap broken consoles on Ebay and fix them. If I don't have one I add it to my collection, otherwise I trade them into the game store or gift them to friends. This particular ps1 is going to a friend who's ps1 broke recently
-
alyssa (@alyssagynepuppy) reported@JWD_II yeah like i don't see any issues with 90% of what he does which is just ebay the only issue i see is the file structure and mounting external drives
-
The_Elixir_of_Freedom (@ElixirofFreedom) reportedI've abandoned my Fakebook account. I deleted my original FB account in 2020 when censorship was slamming down. I went back in 2022 for my eBay stuff but ended up in an endless loop so in Dec of 2024 I abandoned it. I need to get on there and completely delete it.
-
v (@VondyP) reported@sirronhale @eBay bingo... i dont have this problem from the seller side. i have the issue from the buyer side. I stalk an auction for days and get what i think is a good deal.... seller cancels within 5 minutes of the auction ending. how convenient that the item is no longer available...
