mark t (@markt83101520) reported@Sheik0711 I don't believe the deal will go down the way it is currently proposed. I have a price target of 12, they need to spend the cash, just not on ebay.. yet. Can't break below 10 bucks because of the wave count around the sneeze
-
Nick Vinson 🇺🇸 (@Nick_Vinson) reported@surgieboi @eBay @kev396ss Large market reach, and that is all eBay has. Literally no one complains about a flat 10% FVF, it’s the additional scummy **** they do to fleece more money that is the issue. Their target audience is absolutely aging out though, and that is a great sign.
-
The Toy Investor (@thetoyinvestor) reported@SteveFrenchAMZ I don’t respond to a single message on eBay unless they have already purchased from me. If they message about price I just use the send offer button and mark it down like $5.
-
Meagan Mcvay (@McvayMeagan) reported@eBay your automated help system sucks, after 2 hours my issue is not resolved, the option to request a call back is gone, and the automated chat won’t put a live person on the chat. I will never list anything on eBay again, this could have been fixed in 10 minutes anywhere else
-
threadguy (@notthreadguy) reported@AvgJoesCrypto @sershokunin agree with this. was kind of excited at the proposition of gme buying ebay and maybe going down this route doesn’t look like it’ll happen
-
Kong (@K1n9_Kon9) reported@myrealtorty $EBAY $GME only needs 51% to control the stock what will they do. the longer EBAY stays below 125 the more ebay shares GME will get at a discount and pay them even less for the shares. woops indeed. GME should be going up if EBAY going down. $GME may not need to issue shares

Ego (@ego_magnif) reportedNever living down the fact I let the cheapest copy of Amrita ever slip through my fingers on ebay. It was like 60 bucks with shipping.

Tony (@_tonyishere) reportedin the last 6 month i had issues with @YouTube @eBay and @Payoneer - huge businesses. In each an automated system decided there was “a problem,” instantly slapped me with “permanently suspended,” and that was it. no warning. no appeal. In two of those cases it took around a week to get to a real person in customer support. Each took 1-3 month to be resolved. in the end ALL THREE said "sorry for the mistake"! i get it, companies grow, get more customers, and mistakes happen. But it is increasingly obvious that big companies are in AI race slashing costs and chasing profits… while treating their #1 asset (the customer) like disposable beta testers. Anyone else living this nightmare? What’s the best way to actually push back? Or is this just the new normal?

Chris Paul (@cpgone4) reported@Yisrael1600 @Barchart Down sixty percent in the last five years in red in pretty much every time frame in 1.2.3.4.5 years. Lots of cohen , cool aid drinkers on the y f chat board. The ebay deal aint , happening and earnings are about to plunge
-
Liz Morton ~ Value Added Resource (@ValueAddedRS) reported@heydomoshi "Elliott was more focused on unlocking value (for themselves, as a hedge fund)" 👍 I see similarities in some of the issues that were called out then, but end result was mostly just selling off StubHub & Classifieds, not the significant op changes needed at eBay at the time (and still). Elliott sold off their stake in 2021 but many of their points still stand & there's still much work to be done, imo.

J85 (@JoshuaN00980143) reported@eBayForBusiness have a problem caused by horrible usps service the last year contacted eBay help but they don’t seem to understand, it’s like they don’t read the message and comprehend it. How can I contact someone that can help? We have been selling on eBay 20+ yrs
-
Atlanta_Sports_Cards (@atlanta_cards) reported@gmac817 Crazy haha. I had someone do something similar. Purchased a card of mine on ebay And then right after I shipped it they sent me a message and said "How's the condition?" "Any issues?" "Is the surface in good shape?" Thankfully it went to authentication but I was concerned lol.
-
🐧 (@penspenspens412) reported@RDKLInc Shipping on eBay is a big big problem. u are absolutely spot on. 1) Calc shipping is default setting. 2) they need to negotiate some kind of better rates. If you're shipping from a coast it's superrrr easy to get burned shipping to the other coast if you opt for free or fixed rt

reecey rooster (@reecey_rooster) reportedits really hurtful to know the industry I've worked in for over 15 years is just a cold heartless empty void and everyone only cares about money. ive dedicated my life to providing original content all the way from 2016 to now, 2026. if @ebay want to ban me because of personal confliction with @TeamPWR brand, how is that a fair consumer practise? im reaching out one more time before I take action, ive attemtped to contact 5 employees about this. A permenant suspension is not applicable to someone in my circumstances as a BRAND owner and soon to be Lifestyle brand owner. Thank you for your consideration. I believe the ban is a technical error and need this immediatly reviewed and disclosed why this has happened to me in a private email PLEASE to my biz email. plz dont fail to respond within 24hrs. Mr Reece York , Reecey Rooster

KidsMeal (@Kidsmealstudios) reported@ShaunFitzzzy Thanks man. I had issues with eBay awhile ago where they kept taking down my listings. I’m going try again in the future.

The Broken Teacher (@Defilife_ape) reportedI read this this isn’t my personal card. I ran a business on eBay for years selling guitars and watched it decline till I left. This to me is wild as the error was cleared card was rebought and delivered as stated. eBay as a whole shifted hard to buyer protections leaving major loopholes on returns for quite a while. Exporting Hugh end guitars was what I mainly did and it became a nightmare allowing international bidders to force partial refunds for clearly listed items

computer toucher (@computertouch3r) reported@RDKLInc Except one time for me it was way under what it really cost. I shipped a big 1U server - eBay said 30 ish dollars but USPS charged me close to a 100.

Squid (@sydkg02) reported@LucusCruz @nova_gage51239 Watch as his eBay gets taken down now bc of CHAIRTY FRAUD @eBay

reecey rooster (@reecey_rooster) reported@Loserfruit amend the ebay customer code immediately and never use AI again to discriminate. My old boss said to me once, "Reece, You make once mistake, thats alright mate, but you make sure next time you never make the same mistake." fix your platforms immediately.
-
Peak Hobby (@PeakHobby) reported@PokeHEX5555 @ApeStackin @LlcPickaxe The problem is PokeData takes Pre-release eBay sold prices as the starting price which are probably unauthorized/illegal and those sell for insane prices that no realistic person would pay for
-
Tamptreal Rays (@vlad27fan) reported@dadof3cardsfans @Andylanger The problem with the description issue is that Ebay hides them because they don't think it should be necessary with an 80 character title, pictures, and shipping info all posted in the landing page. RP isn't good enough for Reprint, it's technically not a reprint anyways.

Magnum Man Pagan (@MagnumPagan) reported@GlitchedDrops Why you crying? You want more than one for the low low so you can triple the price on fb and ebay like a bum? If you are desperate for money, I have a solution that will help you and any other scalping bums out. Ready? Get a pen and paper to write this down. GET A JOB, LOSER.

Centexsales512 (@edmundfitzz) reported@AddictedHoosier @CardPurchaser I saw an ungraded base prizm go for $180 on eBay. Every single card that was listed for under $100 was sold or taken down within 10 minutes of the final whistle. I bought two, couldn’t help myself.

Dunewolf (@DJ_Dunewolf) reported@URaSmartAssCarl Aww damn is them people selling ghosts in jars and "girl farts" in jars on Ebay gonna get arrested next? lol.. (or did Ebay crack down to prevent that stuff lol)
-
Doughnuts In November (@DoughnutsinNov) reported@horrormuseum @washghost1 That's actually my problem with that. Goodwill is meant to be for people that are struggling financially and their inventory is donated because of that. Then the organization started checking eBay and matching collector prices. Those VHS should be $2 each in a Goodwill.
-
Faptain Whoregan (@bentlikebeckam) reported@NoLuckLugia Again what I say isn’t excusing it but show me who’s perfect. eBay has multiple issues between shipping/ese and the authentication process damaging cards or how about how the entire body of the company doesn’t even support it? You got usps sniping packs based on the senders name
-
G. BARR (@glennthegreat) reported@larryvc eBay has built a multi billion dollar company. The problem is is they treat it like a tomato on the vine. It’s withering.

Dayn Williams (@Daynlokki) reportedAnyone else having issues printing labels on eBay? I keep getting the ‘There was a problem processing your request on the carriers system. Please try again later’ error. @CardPurchaser

Bogdan F (@BogdanF172) reported@ruedaoj @ryancohen @eBay HE’S DOWN OVER 100M SINCE HE BOUGHT IT AT THE TOP AND YOU ARE LITERALLY CHEERING THAT HE RECOVERED 2M OUT OF THIS. There is NO ******* WAY you people are real. NO WAY.
