eBay Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • BethanRussell_ Bethan (@BethanRussell_) reported

    I’ve got into a terrible habit where I search ‘DVC’ into eBay and Vinted and ✨ANYTHING✨ that appears, I instantly buy 🙈

  • WarriorCards65 Warrior (@WarriorCards65) reported

    PSA: @eBay has known bugs that have been an issue since December with invoices/payments and they are not doing anything to correct them. I wasted an hour trying to get it fixed on my end, called them, and their @AskeBay support staff didn't think my time and frustration mattered.

  • Ghifto Ghift (@Ghifto) reported

    @BrokenLevel I follow a retro tech guy who keeps getting these kinds of comments. His advice is basically "okay, don't buy it at these prices, save an ebay search and wait for the hype to die down. This kind of thing is about patience."

  • life_of_niebz The Dude (@life_of_niebz) reported

    So @eBay says my card isn’t authentic because of a bulge from a patch, then they return the card to an address that isn’t even on file anymore. Now my card is out in limbo with no destination in site. FIX YOUR PROCESS @AskeBay you scrubs!

  • fairwaycards Fairway Sports Cards (@fairwaycards) reported from Whippany, New Jersey

    @CardsKevin @roroweber1 It’s not a huge time suck but it does feel like a waste of time. I sell so much on eBay not sure why I even try here. I think the problem is there are too many flippers all trying to sell here. Hard to sell to sellers

  • Benhur846 Benhur Reyes Jr (@Benhur846) reported

    @RutaDeMando This local toy shop that I go to, is shutting down this weekend, they had a lot of stuff on sale, this was 65 bucks. Ppg is 70.00, but it sells on eBay for like 120.00, good score. Just need to get it signed.

  • ChrisUceda Chris Uceda (@ChrisUceda) reported

    @marcelwrites Selling phones on ebay. Because of an error in the system of the shop they only costed half of the normal price. My friend worked there and told me .so we bought 5. Also, survival in Germany 😎

  • Minarzue Luke (@Minarzue) reported

    @NarrowEComics I was wondering if you buy comics? I have a small collection of Batwoman New 52, including some alternate arts but down want the hassle of selling on eBay.

  • Vengeful_Falcon Sideswipe (@Vengeful_Falcon) reported

    @ArchCools Fair enough. For some reason, Nintendo’s initial hiccup in getting it properly stocked is making people think it’s going to be some crazy limited thing and it’s getting sold for way more than it should be on eBay. I was able to get it preordered from GameStop no problem.

  • standaloneSA Matt Simmons (@standaloneSA) reported

    Long shot, but I bought an old SuperMicro server for my home on eBay. SAS drives work fine, but SATA drives aren’t picked up. The enclosure (LSI SAS2x36) and the HBA (LSI SAS 2008) both support SATA per the docs. The drive bays all are okay with SAS, not SATA. Any ideas?

  • sarbidraws sara ⁷ ⁺ˣ⁺ 🌙🐈‍⬛ (@sarbidraws) reported

    @serendipitygos they doooo!! I already got napping cheese but I might get soft paws as well when the photocards are out in Korea so I don’t have to hunt them down on eBay 💀

  • AskeBay Ask eBay (@AskeBay) reported

    @martintreacy11 We can understand seeing a suspension can be disappointing. To speak with our team further, click on the Help & Contact options at the top of most eBay pages and scroll down to 'contact us'. ~Lindsey

  • retrogubb RetroGubb (@retrogubb) reported

    @GOGamerUK Exactly. There's one on eBay now for £166 CIB. To be fair, thats actually come down 🙄

  • TheFoxEssence Aliyah | ザ フォックス エッセンス (@TheFoxEssence) reported

    I wish that I had a mint copy of this. There’s some issues with the cover and the binding. I hoped to get it professionally repaired someday. I want to buy a fresh copy. But they’re anywhere upwards from $180 -$400 on EBay depending on the condition and characteristics.

  • RobWorst Not Near Mint (@RobWorst) reported

    @tsujigo I got the run of New Teen Titans back in the early years of eBay when the run was maybe $100 or so… including this issue 2! 😧

  • joe_popiel joe popiel (@joe_popiel) reported

    @CardGrowthFund @CardPurchaser Same problem, just have to manually change size and it will automatically go back to ebay option. Annoying for sure.

  • LockpickMind LockpickMind 🆓 (@LockpickMind) reported

    @DrLoupis I see a bunch of cosplayers who spent too much on eBay buying ex-police gear. You can buy ex-police caps, clothing, high vis vests, cameras, radios, handcuffs, pouches, POLICE markings, glitter & face paint, all on eBay. If they are real police, we have issues in this country.

  • KevTooDope Kenny Blankenship (@KevTooDope) reported

    I’m not saying solving an extreme plumbing issue, but legit you could watch someone fix a washing machine with a part ordered from EBay or Amazon and learn to do it yourself.

  • terrygrant more ghost than man (@terrygrant) reported

    Jesus, even broken non-functional cassette 4 tracks are going for hundreds of dollars on eBay. It's like y'all weren't around to experience just how **** cassettes were the 1st time. What's next, $1000 ADATs?

  • _HoneyBee_94 𝒮𝒾𝑒𝓇𝓇𝒶 (@_HoneyBee_94) reported

    @pulte iPhone X, it was given to me by my ex when he received his friends estate after he passed away. I had the iPhone 8 Plus before that. Pretty solid so far, he had bought it used off of eBay but no issues.

  • ArtonisDragon Artonis | BLM! (@ArtonisDragon) reported

    You know what irks me on Ebay? When someone uses the suggest-a-price option and I make a reasonable offer and the guy then makes a counteroffer going down 99 cents on a 40 dollar item. Why bother offering that at all? Jeeze.

  • halljord23 jerry hall (@halljord23) reported

    @tlucas1305 @Mikeyt48dfs @CardPurchaser I’ve never had a problem except for the moronic usps returning a few due to me over padding the card/envelope. I find most of those government morons have no idea about the eBay shipping program . If you use their program your insured to $20?

  • TsarKastik Peter Roman (@TsarKastik) reported

    @POTUS You cracked down on people selling low value goods on eBay, lowering the reporting limit from $20k to $600. That was aimed at the middle class and the elderly, like me, downsizing stuff we no longer need.

  • themooshmosh Moosh🎗 this grilled chese is my legacy- (@themooshmosh) reported

    @spxcelily Sell em on eBay? That’s what I’m planning on doing lmao- that’s weird that you got sent stuff you didn’t order though, I’ve been seeing other people having trouble with their orders so I’m kinda worried

  • MysteriousZim Mysterious_Zim (@MysteriousZim) reported

    Man, scalping sucks. I get it with stuff like a PS5 or graphics cards, but the fact that my pre-order of metroid prime is having trouble being fulfilled while people are selling copies of this 40 dollar game on eBay for like 100 bucks sucks. Its just a normal video game. Why?

  • ezeji_nolly Nolly (@ezeji_nolly) reported

    @__AdaOrmar Nwa calm down e get magic wand I ordered for eBay, very soon oga Harry Potter go get am. He lost his magic wand that’s why

  • IshaBoiAlex 💖ALEX💖 | Cómms: 0/3 (@IshaBoiAlex) reported

    @KaijuPictures Considering I want to find as many kaiju DVDs as possible I’m gonna try finding a copy on eBay. Only problem is I’m probably gonna have to import it since I live in the UK ;w;

  • callykarishokka Lord Cally Kari Shokka 🔆🐀 🥔🍕 (@callykarishokka) reported

    Update on the... Very X-rated mechanical watch: An 'ebay expert' told me I could try to list it up and i might get away with it, but it might get taken down by ebay, which... Which I coulda figured out on my own... I guess...

    @Defi_Ser1980 Yea March 2020 destroyed a lot of ppl. I saw it coming starting in Nov/Dec and started seeing imports from Overseas slowing down. I closed up a Top Rated eBay business b4 it hit the states. I was out just in time
