Chinmay (@askcp) reported@ananyashaswat @SamsungIndia My first order on Amazon was on 19th October 2013 and I was always always always one who recommended ordering online. I think I have been ordering since 2006/2007 timeframe from eBay and couple of other Indian sites too. 20 years fast forward I have almost stopped ordering online. 1. Amazon - Reduced Purchases to almost nill due to quality issues and return/refund cycles. They also added extensive delay even in prime deliveries and stupid platform fees. 2. Amazon Business - Steady purchases but very cautious as low quality and damaged products are delivered sometimes. 3. Myntra - Stopped due to low quality and anti-customer practices 4. AJIO - Constant Scams, Low Quality Products, Returning Stuff is extremely difficult even if it's their fault and super idiotic customer service. 5. Swiggy - Fraud and Idiotic Customer Service, Replaced by Zomato 6. Big Basket - Replaced by Blinkit So.. Pricing cannot be the only factor, there is convenience, there is delivery timeframe and a lot more. Of late, I am splitting my purchases between online and offline, focus is more on best service and experience. PS: I live in tier 2 or probably tier 3 town in Gujarat, so finding non-Chindi offline vendor is a difficult task but then sometimes I order from out of state vendors and survive.

KS93 (@thatsme9393) reported@bannedwassie @TyCoTooCold @CardPurchaser I put my trust in only one person on here and that’s because I watched him for several years. Knew he was legit. eBay isn’t a terrible spot.

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

Surtsey (@SurtseyAna) reported@PhoenixBlackNow Moral dilemma. I purchased an old Dell laptop for parts from eBay. (I needed the keyboard) I didn't get what I ordered. They guy sent me a working, better laptop of a different brand in error. He hasn't said anything - should I let him know?

In The past I've worked cleaning Airbnbs, bartending and as a server for a catering company. I also sell thrifted items on eBay.

Paul Ellison (@GRTigers) reported@MikesUpperDeck1 @CheckOutMyCards Are they going to refund any shipping or handling fees? Seems like they ought to with them failing to meet any kind of timeliness with the shipping. In spite of the issues with eBay, at least they require the seller to ship within 4 days.

Kate (@youngkav11) reported@ebay your callback is not working. My husband utilized call back and no one is calling back. What the hell is going on??
-
J (@Jeremyyv7b) reported@HeatherIsUnsane But it will be sold out. Thats the problem. People with big pockets buy all the seats with bots. And this is what we get. Just like gas, cars, houses. Artificial inflation. It’s why eBay sucks now. People make a living reselling.

Animeist (@var_angian) reported@FromPemberley Yep 90IQ (at best) Houthis shut down the Red Sea with tech you can buy off ebay, there was no military response because the risk was far too high and naval airstrikes/bombardments cant dislodge insurgents from mountains… Iran is like that x100

Aaron Castro (@castrlou) reported@frank_lubatti Hey, looking to buy bulk astros. Way to see your current inventory? Checked ebay didnt see some of your recent post, unsure if sold and taken down.

Brodie Robertson (@BrodieOnLinux) reportedPlease @LogitechG bring back the G600, people are selling it for $300 on ebay, there's clearly a market of people who want this mouse back. My mouse click is finally dying and sadly I've got to move on to something else unless I can fix it.

Roman Pioneer (@renoipgp) reported@BourbonInvestm2 @natsturner @eBay I appreciate your perspective as an honest seller, but the system is absolutely broken for preventing systematic fraud. I just tested the checkout process myself with a P.O. Box. The 'Authenticity Guarantee' badge still shows up. eBay gives zero warning that the item will bypass authentication. That is incredibly deceptive to buyers who think they are protected. Second, there are no consequences. This seller has had items fail authentication before, has received multiple reports for fraud, yet he is still not banned and continues to list hundreds of counterfeits. eBay just quietly refunds the buyer, returns the fake to the scammer, and lets him try again. They are protecting their profit margins instead of the community. PSA and eBay need to share data to permanently ban accounts systematically submitting fakes. And of course, we can't completely rule out the possibility that this was simply a massive error and the fake card actually passed the PSA inspection.

bad robot (@foxenflask) reported@papi_kubosh He has been involved with PayPal indirectly since eBay acquired it in 2002, and directly as a PayPal board member from the 2015 spin‑off until he stepped down in 2017

PsyoptimusPrime (@FutureLuckyGuy) reported@saya08521010 Most of us overseas get ours from people in Japan that buy them locally and sell them on eBay or Yahoo auction So it's kind of a result of both. And many people here contribute to the problem by buying only to sell higher, not to play or collect them

Robb Carlson (@robbc_) reported@premiercards_2 @eBay It’s such a terrible “service” they’re offering - just put EVERY order at risk.

9sOnly (@Blake5874) reported@phatjer300 @CardPurchaser @eBay I didn't see minor issues. I'm not a grader.

Wawa (@WawaXRP) reported@Nortier Very true. Big difference is like adidas sells all the same products so they have have warehouses all over with the same stock. Problem with a RWA marketplace warehouse is that like eBay it’s a perpetual rotating supply of what people are listing, and the sellers themselves are holding custody for 90% of items so shipping depends based on where seller lives not necessarily the marketplace location. That’s why it probably has to come down to an issue of who should pay for shipping that’s fair for all parties. Really, sellers could list a $100 item for $150 and then shipping is free for buyer and seller would receive $100 minus 50 for shipping if it comes out of seller side.

Pimpdaddysatan (@_Pimpdaddysatan) reported@ReelJustinLewis I had one, listed it on eBay and right before it got pulled down for being against standards some dude messaged and offered $600 for the dagger and sheath. I should have kept it, but at the time years back, I needed the money.. 👍
-
Bryan (@bryanbarry2823) reported@alfrdyo09 @DHCards10 No problem. Are we even close? I can come down some but it has to be zelle or another protected method. I usually sell on EBAY as i trust the buyer protection, but they are killing us with fees.
-
Comfortably Numb (@ComfortNumbing) reported@LibertarianG0th Sadly yes. But I'm pretty sure eBay will also shut you down if they caught wind of you selling ***** socks.
