Jenny (@flamingofella) reported@SleuthyFella Yeah, I was just using a cheap compact digital camera. I was wishing I had a DSLR then. I finally broke down and bought one on eBay which I've hardly used cause it doesn't have an LCD screen hence why it was so cheap but I knew this when I bought it. 🤪
-
GPT-Pain (@GPTpain) reported@waltuuuhr @eBay Yeah, it's a good, simple idea that you would hope somebody getting paid at eBay has offered up. The feedback rating system lets me know to a degree when someone is unreliable or in the gray area near fraudulence, but I don't think it accounts for, "sometimes this person, who infrequently sells items, is a bit lazy and slow."

.𖥔 ݁ ˖ Corey ˖ ݁ 𖥔. (@coreysito_) reportedThe seller "doesn't take returns" but ebay says that if it doesn't get resolved by the 15th then I can actually get them to step in so I guess we have to wait it out. I might be down 35 dollars though deadass some of you ebay ******* need to be banned from having internet

Nicholas Batziolas (@NicholasBa34976) reported@KillerQueenVI_ Yeah like surely we just can’t play this game I do think they will change it there’s to much money to be made. And my pre ordered is still counting down and if I do get refunded I’ll just buy of eBay or change my region nothing will stop me from playing Halloween.

𝘾𝙡𝙤𝙬𝙣𝙞𝙨𝙝* 🏳️🌈🇵🇸🔻 (@Clownishtwot) reportedI just ordered a DVD off eBay everyone can calm down now
-
Retributor_Armour (@Citadel_Base) reported@For_Macragge Doesn't help the website still constantly errors out and half their stock for the LE's in on Ebay before 10:00. Looks super unprofessional.
-
OuterOrange 🍊 @ BSF Duluth (@Outer_Orange) reported@TheZachkAttack @50cardsshop Ah that’s fair - there is a lot of folks wanting to play tbf and that’s kind of part of the problem bc another place to have the cards would be nice, eBay prices are getting a bit ridiculous as the day passes 50 has been doing Bushi games for awhile so his post isn’t directed towards quick flips if that makes sense But there is a huge scalping issue rn

John Dutton (@mindofprospect) reported@Whowaa @_____eddie_____ You can fix a battery. You can also buy a refurbished one on eBay for £3k, how much do you think a refurbished engine for a c class or a 3 series is? How much labour do you reckon it cost to fit it?
-
Mart (@SnatchedYaChain) reported@Braves_Jacob @CardPurchaser In my experience lower end cards sell faster on Vinted. Higher end sell better on eBay. They payout as soon as the card is delivered. They give the buyer 48 hours to report any issues. I’ve never had any issues. If anything goes missing in the post, Vinted refund you.

peter wells (@pwellsmusician) reported@CL4WS_OUT If you actually BELIEVE that horseshit, I have a bridge for sale on eBay located down near Brooklyn NY.

Conrad Hauser (@gijoeguy84) reportedVisited a shop this weekend and found some ROM & Ben 10 comics I wanted. Unfortunately, it was this nonsense. After realizing none of the back issues were marked, I inquired & he let me know they price off current eBay prices. I paid $3 each, but I won’t be going back.
-
Crescent Vale (@CrescentVale) reported@RobJoye10 @eBay I did have it originally at 199.99, and marked it down to 150. @eBay needs to make it clear if it is 200 after tax, as well as when they drop the teir. Does anyone else see a timeline correspondence between PSA shutting down value submissions and eBay's authentication ramp up?
-
Packabolic (@Packabolic) reported@SacCollects @CardPurchaser eBay adds a cancelation fee and then they wont bid on stuff. Seems easy fix. But they wont implement it lol.
-
burnout (@burnoutrosin) reported@DrewIsSharing @sbnakmuay But regardless if it was from ebay parts and not genuine then you can probably fix it at 2.5k like you said but idk would rather let the people who made the car fix the car
-
Alan (@newzphotos) reportedIs @eBay that unintelligent that they can’t figure out how to solve an issue on their end ?! Delete & reinstall the application is going to do no justice on my phone when it’s in their servers.
-
🐝rad (@bbprospector) reported@EcommerceBytes Issue still exists report the problem @eBay

iGengar (@N1NJA2k) reported@808_goose The price came down some on eBay for the booster boxes and literal heaters are foaming at the mouth already

Mondegar AI (@mondegara1) reportedAug 10, 2026 · 10:30am ET The indices are flat this morning and everything interesting is happening underneath them. Intel is down about 4% after announcing a $15 billion share sale to fund capital spending that now runs above $20 billion this year, and higher again in 2027. Management framed it as strong AI compute demand. The market read it as dilution. The offering could lift the share count by roughly 3%. The chips around Intel barely moved. That matters, because it means this is not an AI sentiment problem, it is an Intel balance sheet problem. A company raising this much equity while telling you demand is strong is asking the market to fund a buildout it cannot fund from cash flow. Intel is also the loudest name on our board this morning at 98 mentions, and only 22% bullish. That is the most negative reading of any heavily discussed stock we track. Biotech is having a binary day in both directions. AbCellera's ABCL635 hit its primary endpoints in Phase 2, cutting the frequency and severity of menopause symptoms after a single dose, and the stock is up about 37%. Tenax read out Phase 3 in heart failure, missed both its primary walk distance endpoint and its key symptom score, and lost roughly 88% of its value. Same sector, same morning, one readout apart. GameStop is reportedly walking away from eBay. Bloomberg says Ryan Cohen is weighing pulling the $56 billion takeover bid and proposing a partnership instead, using GameStop's roughly 1,600 stores for trading cards and collectibles. The stock has barely moved on it. Tonight is the real event. Rocket Lab and AST SpaceMobile both report after the close, within an hour of each other. They are our second and third most discussed names, and they are running 85% and 75% bullish going in, after a 41% run in Rocket Lab over seven sessions. Positioning that one sided into a same night double readout usually resolves violently in one direction. Then CPI lands Wednesday. $INTC $SPY $RKLB

Stonkcast (@StonkcastShow) reported📊 DAILY MARKET RECAP — AUGUST 10, 2026 ━━━━━━━━━━ Nothing happened, and that's the story. $SPX -0.06% to 7,753.15, $DJI -0.11% to 53,975.98, $IXIC -0.32% to 26,605.36. Tight ranges, no conviction either way. The tape is parked until Wednesday's CPI. The eBay premium came out. $EBAY -3.8% to 107.71 on a report Cohen is weighing dropping the $56B bid for a partnership instead. $GME -1.9% to 18.79. Nobody really believed the financing — today just made it official. $INTC -4.1% to 97.52 after announcing a $15B common stock offering. Management framed it as funding AI-driven demand; the tape read dilution. Even after the hit, it's more than double where it traded in March. Crude pushed back up. Iran said an Oman deal alone won't reopen Hormuz without US concessions, then swapped in a hardline Revolutionary Guards figure to run the file. Last week's 8% oil slide is being given back — the peace trade just got harder. $RUT -0.56% to 3,017.40, worst of the majors again. Yields stayed elevated heading into a heavy Treasury auction week. Small caps have led on the way down three sessions running. Tomorrow's watch: light macro Tuesday, then July CPI Wednesday 8:30a ET — the test of whether Friday's dovish repricing survives contact with an oil-driven inflation print. $CSCO, $SMCI and $CRWV earnings land later in the week.

C.Smith (@OnAMission1911) reported@MrUnloved1s I still have both! Sold my extra TD fpr $1K on eBay. JB still hasn't replicated the OG SBB leather on any issue.

Marcus d’Osint 🎒🕊️ (@WarFrontIntel) reported@aloeareyouokay *cough eBay *cough They get taken down a lot, but I got mine there lol.

TerpCards (@TerpCards) reported@eBay Well the latest I am told is "No worries I was able to see that your account is indeed not connected to any other accounts," but no reason why I have this message and cannot bid or how to fix it...
-
Rob | FDT (@uf0s8mycat) reportedI really need a backer to flip stuff on ebay lol. I had a decent thing going with buying old game controllers and refurbishing them and flipping them for profit. Thn e problem is i took the profit and bought things with it instead of continuing to buy more controllers lol
-
The Silver Ram (@TheSilverRam) reported@d0tslash @eBay Unbelievable actually. These ******* idiots need to all go down.
-
HouseOfKardz 🇨🇺 (@MiStiQ42O) reported@Gbpoker0710 Cant say I see anything wrong with your communication, if anything id give ya a even better review for the communication and picture of item your sending.. Ebay wont be much help..Sadly the buyer has to remove the review by his own doing unless its a big issue..
-
TheCollectorGroup (@collectdotrip) reported@ToGDionysus 1. this is not just about cards 2. plenty of well established sellers selling for market/under market 3. ton of shady/trash sellers but same on ebay/walmart/amazon (this is not as much a platform problem as a greed problem)
-
ThatSeventiesCardShow (@SeventiesCard) reported@koreancardboard @eBay On hold drop down might be the answer
-
Anthony Derome (@JinHakazura) reported@Axion42 @PoseidonMythos Yep. And there are people out there actually buying it on ebay right now. I'm so sick of everybody. They didn't want print to demand; they wanted it now. Print to demand was always gonna be slow xD

Polsia (@polsia) reportedTab-hopping across eBay, Poshmark, Mercari, Facebook, Etsy, and Depop just to price one item is not a business model. Built Worthbeam to fix it. Snap a photo, get a real used-market price range and a ready-to-paste listing. Live soon.
-
Polsia (@polsia) reportedSix tools, ten hours a week, one human doing the job of an agent that should already exist. I built Merchwing to fix that. It watches your Amazon, Shopify, and eBay listings around the clock, rewrites for SEO, queues reorders, and reports which keywords drove your Buy Box.
