    Well spent today relaxing and had to take apart entertainment/backup pc. It was having issues with detecting hard drives. So keeping hard drives and power supply, but put the cooler/ram and cpu up for sale on ebay.

    @BranaDane @eBay FEBAY IS WHAT THEY CALL IT. Also if you ever have a problem they will always take the buyers side.

    i had trouble with ebay this week. they were all useless, but the mexicans i'd talk to would actually stay on the line with me and do their best to figure it out slip in standards – i shouldnt be content with entire departments that are incompetent – but credit where it's due

    @Seok26_ @SodaSkins Stop being poor. This is a poor/priorities out if whack problem not an optimization problem. A GTX 1050 will give you ***at least*** 60FPS, that **** is $60 on ebay. If you can't get CS2 running at 60FPS or better you shouldn't be gaming.

    @eBay That was the problem. Continuously getting a stupid automated service that didn't help and when I finally got an agent they talked like an AI too. Still not sure they were real. Go back to human interaction.

    I believe international messaging is down or playing up on eBay… I was due to receive messages off of a regular client and I’ve heard nothing. Now today another customer has messaged me completely oblivious to the fact that I sent them a message and I’ve replied to them immediately with a question and nothing back in return…

    Hey @ebay remove the shipping cost review feature from reviews. We have no control over postage cost and getting review dings because someone agreed to pay it but then complained is BS. @ryancohen please make that a fix in your first 100 days. @CardPurchaser

    @JGemini @TunedIntoTennis You sound super ignorant and ungrateful.. I purchase used shoes all the time from eBay because nice ones can be expensive and a nice pair of used shoes are better than holey unstable shoes that cause injury which I’ve had. It sounds like the issue lies within you

    @ryancohen I have no real opinion over this. But, I will say as a small scale developer who is trying to build an app that will push people towards eBay, the company's recent decisions to lock down all APIs and wall off app development (during an AI APP BOOM) is baffling.

    @FargusDengus @_vindicator_ Holy ****, he closed down unprofitable stores, so amazing. Nevermind all the failed ventures, buying hundreds of millions of dollars worth of BTC and eBay at the top.

    @mukualt I mean I've bought some stuff from eBay no problem, though I am in the US....

    @EliteGolfDad The quick fix is buy last year’s clubs in mint condition from Global Golf on eBay. 100% legit and often 50-25% of the original price.

    @MykhailoRohoza The Mq9 is obsolete and already being replaced not that you would ever want to lose them but not like we could sell them on ebay they are to slow and predictable to survive modern warfare it entered service in 2007 19 years ago times have changed

    @Stalvey48 @benzos14111 Are you like the ******* mall cop of eBay right now dude? “Holy **** omg this absolute monster posted his eBay stuff on auction” Like what are you so obsessed about? It will go for the market value. Why is it the sellers you have such a problem with and not the buyers???

  • Cardhedge
    Card (@Cardhedge) reported

    @SmallCapBob2 @ryancohen ebay is so broken im building a search engine on top to find items i actually want and to remove all the scam listings and garbage also this is why a lot of people do not ship internationally, a lot of scammers. items dont go through authentication pass for international and scammers know this so its much easier for them to essentially steal your card or lie

    @puuhs I usually buy my playmat, deck sleeves, and case set off of eBay. Never had an issue with any sellers.

    @KansasKim6 eBay and Facebook are a MESS with scalpers. This won't fix it, but maybe it'll help.

    @BranaDane @eBay Don't expect an answer from @eBay. No one is able to get issues resolved because they no longer allwo real people to answer the phones, and their AI is RETARDED.

    FlipFlow. An AI agent that monitors competitor prices 24/7 and reprices your inventory across StockX, GOAT, eBay, Grailed while you sleep. Resellers manually reprice everything. That's the problem I'm solving.

    You can make $ millions using eBay. And you don't have to sell anything on eBay. One of eBay's game-changing aspects is the data it makes available at no cost. Put on your headlamp and let's drill down to learn about making money with eBay Data. Let’s start with using eBay data as a buying tool. eBay provides three years of data for public search records on their website. Use this data to educate yourself and to help you make data-driven decisions. eBay Research shows you how much you can pay for a product for resale, how to increase your average sale prices, and what best practices help sell products the fastest. One key metric you will find: Average prices a product has SOLD for – this is not the current price that sellers are advertising products at; instead, it is what the product sold for – a much more valuable piece of information. Data point two: The velocity of sales – the quantity of a particular product sold within a given period. Learn how fast you can expect to sell your product(s) if you list them at the average sale prices. Up next, how product condition impacts sale prices Match the product condition with the condition of what you are considering selling. If your product is New without tags or pre-owned, it will have a different resale price than New with tags. Who are you competing with? Who is selling the same products you are considering selling? How successful are they? What best practices can you glean from their listings? Speaking of Best Practices: Best Practices – find the highest-selling listings and use those same tactics to create your listings. Identify the techniques used, photo types and quantity, listing details, titles, keywords, policies– anything that you can use to help your listings get the same results. This data will help you sell products on any marketplace or directly to your customers. Don't sleep on using the free eBay Research tools to figure out what to sell, what prices to pay, and what best practices to use to succeed.

    @eBay Account access is blocked, so I cannot use “Contact Us” or sign in. I sold an iPhone; the buyer cancelled/rejected the order but the payment/refund (~$60) is still held in my account. I have no way to reach support as all login and email routes fail. Please help restore access and process the refund.

    @smoothcorners eBay has way more eyes so they win. But have never had an issue before on district and I think that goes for many sellers.

    @eBay how do I get help with an issue on my app? There is no email the chat doesn’t help at all AI or agent.

    I really can’t believe these people are charging 30+ just for a vogue France cover and an interview magazine issue on eBay.
