Phil A. Buster. (@DanDLio50048934) reported@TugboatPhil @freddavelynn Years ago I bought several years issues of the American Rifleman magazine from the 1950s & 1960s on ebay. None of the mail order ads had zip codes.

James (@UDJW79) reported@WeebyRevy My old OG XBox and PS2 had their lasers break. At that point, I sold them for dirt cheap. I imagine these conversions are often-times broken units bought for pennies on the dollar from EBay.
-
Peanut (@JuggaloPeanut) reported@Royals_Cards One thing that has pushed me to leave ALOT more neutral feedback as been eBays new automated system. I dont leave negative feedback if it's a minor issues. Now I leave neutral feedback. I will not allow eBay to automatically leave a positive feedback.

n. (@merseidez) reportedwent down a reddit rabbit whole cuz the hype n price of pokémon cards makes no sense to me. someone explained it as an almost blind box gambling addiction, which makes sense but doesn’t explain the insane valuation markups on ebay.
-
sticky1mate (@sticky1mate) reported@eBay Contacted your customer service 5 times about a buyer scamming me. You've avoided helping me every single time. As a seller, I'm done. Never using eBay again. Your support is terrible and leaves honest sellers unprotected. #eBay #CustomerServiceFail #eBayScam

Guy (@GFilwett) reported@premiercards_2 @eBay They need to put slab bags over these, problem solved

All4Freedom🇺🇲🐸🍿 (@skillz17q) reported@caesar0817ljc @ParodyComedyP I'm a bot, that's ******* hilarious. I have bought stuff on eBay and got it the next day. Free shipping and no membership fees. The thing about eBay is you can see what state it comes from. I wasn't expecting this post to blow up as much as it did. Amazon used to be pretty decent until they added the United States Postal Service to their system. That's the real issue here.

Rokness (@Rokness1) reportedEBay needs to fix this, I’ve reported the seller as well an EBay seems to protect the scammer of a seller even when all proof has been provided.
-
Premier Sports Cards (@premiercards_2) reported@GFilwett @eBay No, this is a slab bag. The problem is it’s a single card in a penny sleeve inside a card saver and then because that’s in the box that gets banged around like crazy it slides out of the card saver. I can re-create it in three seconds.

marj 🍰🌙 #pregnantlightyagamitwt (@pastelcyaniide) reported@lesbianlawmane I got her on ebay but def overpayed a bit 😔 She has a broken arm ans leg which is my fault cuz i had no clue these were so brittle
-
Grok (@grok) reported@sanatani_sonu21 @RealTofanOjha This is a portable electric pipe cutting & beveling machine (for metal pipes like 304 stainless steel, ~57mm dia). It clamps on, rotates, and preps broken/ends for fast welding joins—no heat, super precise in seconds. Buy similar on Amazon/eBay/Alibaba: search "portable pipe beveling machine 2 inch" or "electric pipe cutter 57mm" (₹15k-40k range). In India, check IndiaMART for local stock.

Habitadam (@habitadam) reported@ACTBLUEPHAG @Sejohnn @alecttrona I got mine on eBay, had no issues.

ybee 𓆩⍟𓆪 smbk all the time (@mcu_liker) reported@spideygalsolo I got mine on ebay! they're the brave new world & you and thunderbolts & you jpn exclusive plush so unfortunately they're very overpriced for what they are. I only ended up getting them bc they stopped trying to sell bucky for 100usd LOL so they'll probably continue to go down

Eugene Zaikonnikov🌻 (@varjag) reported@ebay please fix your VOEC handling to Norway, it's getting tiring

Caden (@cadenkoskii) reportedGOING ALL IN NO MORE SHINY OBJECT SYNDROME! Etsy VA fired Etsy shut down Walmart account shutdown Stocks sold All side projects besides eBay shut down Total cash after everything deposits $4692 total plus about $800 worth of inventory once sold COG $0.
-
Cliff DeMartino (@Keystone80435) reported@nremarkableguy @Notjulio you;re right. I thought I was king **** but just a degen. I had a deal with the Clemson Hallmark shop to give me 1st grab on all new beanies. Would buy those bears for $12 and sell them on eBay for $200. And when I was always down to my last $$$, the station on College Ave had a machine that always paid after hours.

Bourbon Invesments 2 (@BourbonInvestm2) reported@renoipgp @natsturner It’s not about the loophole existing because it is 100% fact how the system is set up. I’m sure Nat worded it wrong or spoke without understanding the eBay system itself. Again, eBay isn’t his company who controls what goes to authentication. If someone wins a bid. They’d have to ask seller to cancel order so they can repurchase. Only then they can change the address before they repurchase. Not sure what buyer in their right mind would do that? They’d also have to have their P.O. Box and everything set up before delivery occurs. As a seller you lose ebay protection. If the seller asks buyer for address to manually change it seller gets flagged hard as they are strict with it. Seller then loses every right and protection, if buyer asks for a refund eBay would process that automatically and seller is out. Seller could also put it under wrong category which wouldn’t trigger any AG but again they have zero protection and any refund question it would process and buyer be out. So no the system isn’t fundamentally broken. Just like @natsturner could’ve misspoke on it, you are picking and trying to find anyway to dig to justify the slamming PSA eBay and the AG program because you don’t fully understand it yourself. I’m not knocking you in any way at all for the article. Personally, I fully dislike defending PSA on anything ever. I just want to make sure anything like this is accurately talked about. Since 90% of hobby beefs and drama that blow up viral are based on assumptions and misunderstandings due to non factual information

Katherine Argent (@effthealgorithm) reported@Cross_Malaki Many gaming consoles play DVDs, too. A CD/DVD player attachment you can connect to a computer is dirt cheap at Walmart. Combo TV & DVD players are still manufactured, or you can get retro ones on eBay. And yes, there are still people who know how to fix them if things break.

All4Freedom🇺🇲🐸🍿 (@skillz17q) reported@lynn_dodds84927 I just found 10 items that are cheaper on eBay vs Amazon in about 15 seconds. Amazon should be faster you're paying a membership fee. Since they started using the United States Postal Service that is went downhill in my area. As for returns I've had a few issues but even if the seller does not want to accept the return eBay forces them to and gives you your money back and sometimes you get to keep the item.

Like I’d be arsed (@likeidbearsed) reported@eBay your app has been down for over a week, you website has been glitching for over 5 weeks, yet you seem not to care????? Shocking service
-
🐝 Bee's Cards Emporium 🐝 (@THFpro_Cards) reported@fatparoon @Sir_BeefWelly @CardPurchaser Some people don't realize that there are people from all over the world that buy on eBay legitimately and this person may or may not have just recently started buying and that is why they don't have any feedback in the last 12 months. eBay international shipping protects you as long as they receive the card from you. I have shipped many cards through eBay international shipping including to China without any issue at all.

Izadorinha (@izapastorio) reportedHi @eBay, another issue: an order shows as delivered but I never received it and can’t contact the seller. It’s been 6+ months. Please assist.
-
Hoss (@NamesJohnnyUtah) reported@premiercards_2 @eBay Have them call you thru eBay automated assistant chat. Say “call me” in the chat. Take pictures, show them the damages and they will give you $$ back. This is absolutely a known issue and they are doing nothing to fix it.

Dylan (@Dylan0206954460) reported@Trippy_BTC @CallMeCAP01 @xCodeh I bought an ebay special sink with all plastic gaskets and pipe,been pouring 6 quarts of boiling water down it every day for almost 2 years now by leaving the drain blocked and running cold water then removing the block

Alex (@Bluestreak_07) reported@electrochairr You just convinced me to check eBay for MTMTE comics. Hopefully they have some reasonably priced ones. May have to pick up a couple issues

EverydayReseller (@EverydayResell) reported9 Week Recap Days 1-63 Total sales: $18,292.93 Buy cost (COG): $3,185.73 eBay earnings: $9,602.69 Net profit: $6,416.96 ROI: 201% Started with trial and error. Now it’s starting to feel repeatable. The biggest difference? Better decisions. Buying smarter. Moving faster. Letting the data lead. ROI is trending up week by week!
-
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.
