eBay Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • heidierr Heidi Ruckriegel (@heidierr) reported

    @JohannaSzabo1 @SzilviaVirag Bought same from djs and works no problem after eBay order fell through. That was April 2020. I've decided being an anxious over-preparer might not be such a bad thing now 😳

  • pukiman pukiman (@pukiman) reported

    @pukiman false alarm. Working again after the spit completely dried up. No issues with the mics or anything else either. Was so close to purchasing a new left iem from second hand market. Also saw a good deal on a new open box set on eBay, but thankfully lost the bid. Lucky me.

  • chelseabelsan Chelsea Belsan (@chelseabelsan) reported

    @AskeBay brand new seller here who got suspended for no reason provided. No purchases, no sales, and only had 6 clothing items listed. I got a scam offer from a buyer, did not accept, and then eBay shut down my account 5 mins later. Suspended? For what reason please? #ebayseller

  • SpittinVenoms The Perpetual Shadow Band 🏴‍☠️ (@SpittinVenoms) reported

    @bushido49ers We can't have broke people reselling their personal items on eBay for a fraction of what they paid for it, and expect them not to pay their government taxes on it again. That would just be terrible.

  • jessica_tyciak Jessica Tyciak (@jessica_tyciak) reported

    Have I mentioned I HATE ironing & doing laundry 🧺??? I own an eBay store & this is my life, now;) lol- w/endless problems, too: tiny stains u don’t see until ur home, bleach splashes, burning thru silk- u name it, I’ve done it;) lol

  • Chinfullthought Tahtiana chin (@Chinfullthought) reported

    I would love to know your opinion on “ Effective next year, sellers on certain online platforms like Etsy and eBay will receive a 1099-K if their sales are at least $600, down from the current threshold of $20,000 with a minimum of 200 transactions.”@DaveRamsey

  • 4thEchelon22 SpacWatch25 (@4thEchelon22) reported

    @therealtomship @mtracey What facts? Like one person was killed? Trespassers are being held w/o bail? Punish them yes but ppl ***** and pillaged and burned down our cities. Anyone in jail w/o bail? Pretty sure they’re just creating accounts on eBay and Poshmark and selling after their smash and grabs.

  • missmean2021 Missmean2021 / Claudia Filip (@missmean2021) reported

    Someone would sell their stuff on eBay or nfts or art wherever but they CAN’T, they are not allowed. That’s the issue. #missmean

  • NoeyWebkinz Noey Bolton (@NoeyWebkinz) reported

    I’ve officially deleted all online shopping apps off of my phone. I no longer have Amazon, Etsy or Ebay. I’m pretty serious about this. I know having apps like that will just slow down my saving process. I’m going to be frugal for 2 years

  • PWPNation Powerhouse Nation (@PWPNation) reported

    Be careful, wrestling card collectors. These #AEW Upper Deck cards are going to be a huge cash grab on #eBay for a while. I'm going to sit back and wait until this **** settles down.

  • daveylittle Gusty Billows (@daveylittle) reported

    @NotTimorous will try now - thanks! eBay were terrible. I've been with them for 17 years and they fobbed me off

  • DJGaryBaldy DJGaryBaldy (@DJGaryBaldy) reported

    I've just ordered a new Tea/Coffe/Sugar set off eBay... Its retro(ish) and its ceramic so hopefully nothing will chip off into the sugar like this bloody set from @bmstores I wanted to alert B&M to a possible safety issue and they haven't replied.

  • RockstarFlipper Casey Parris (@RockstarFlipper) reported

    @chadthereseller @eBay Message ebay for business on Facebook. Problem solved. That feedback will be removed

  • fixedassetd FIXEDASSETDISPOSAL (@fixedassetd) reported

    @bobbyhattrell need to speak to you urgently regarding issue with eBay

  • fr3dfl1nstone flynn lillie (@fr3dfl1nstone) reported

    @NoMemesOnMyLawn If you don't wanna mess with homebrew you could also get a cheap flash Cart off eBay, most of them are knockoffs that have a timer to stop working after a few years but it's very easy to fix that and then they work great

  • AustindudeE AustinDude Emporium (@AustindudeE) reported

    @chadthereseller @eBay Man that’s terrible! Can you open a case with the local post office and try to get proof of delivery? Then go back to eBay once you have that in hand.

  • LordMervine James Mervine (@LordMervine) reported

    @eBay you are making it impossible for me to sell! You claim you put some money in my account and I must tell you the amount but you haven’t! And it’s impossible to email you. More big business screwing the small guy. Terrible company

  • hsyed Hassan Syed (@hsyed) reported

    Jumping into eBay after 15 years in small to medium sized companies and Accademia was no problem at all. In any big tech company you just gotta find an org that isn't run by dipsticks. That is the challenge. Good leadership and culture will harness any background.

  • sussythrussy Gluteus Maximus (@sussythrussy) reported

    1&2 are fantastic and of course I have to keep running into issues trying to get 3. First, I lost an auction on eBay, then every time I try to jailbreak one of my ps3s, it doesn’t work. Now I’m hunting it down for cheap on eBay in the hopes that I can get it before summer

  • TommysCornerCa2 Tommy's Corner Card Store (@TommysCornerCa2) reported

    Ebay is driving me crazy, There is a clear pattern of collusion with my ebay sales, certain days of the week without sales, spurts of sales of the same item in different states within an hour, clearly something is broken with ebay @CardPurchaser

  • RobertHeyn Rob (@RobertHeyn) reported

    @NConchie Problem is the kids are being encouraged by their parents so the shirts are going straight on eBay or on a £20 a number Facebook raffle 🥴

  • MSgirl29 hillary stone (@MSgirl29) reported

    I prefer EBay over Amazon. I have never had problems with sellers on EBay.

  • roitings ROItit (@roitings) reported

    @EbayHelp Long time since this much incompetence shown by a company. You screw up an auction mid-auction by suspending it during an Ebay technical issue. Now despite your site saying 1-3 days to verify a bank acct with micro-deposits it is now 4 FOUR DAYS. Stop holding onto my $$

  • caIebozo ً (@caIebozo) reported

    @Maitrev_art @nocontextsly I’ve bought 3 things off eBay in my 23 years alive and they all came broken / messed up (unlike they seller said, said it was in great condition)

  • HobbyAlmighty KG (@HobbyAlmighty) reported

    @Darren14040157 @KollectibleKngs @CardPurchaser That makes sense. Yeah if a friend gives me a card or even if I buy from somebody I interact with on eBay — I’ll rarely sell those. I think ultimately, 90% of what I buy I believe it goes up in value. But I also only buy cards that I’m happy keeping if it does go down in value

  • skywalkerthrawn eli 🫐 3775 nuso esvaless days (@skywalkerthrawn) reported

    would be fun to track this down sometime on ebay even though i don't speak a word of portugese

  • RudolfWolph Rudolf ¿θ∆? (@RudolfWolph) reported

    @StormChasingKai Not a recent thing, but a recurring problem with antiques my dad has bought on eBay x3 I've been luckier.

  • heyySho Lucas (@heyySho) reported

    @adzetko @LoganPaul They’re like 60 bucks on eBay pipe down

  • GeertCu GeertCu 💉 💉 (@GeertCu) reported

    @ASUS_ROG Yes, ok, insta-buy, but that’s exactly the issue. Only after nearly a year I was able to find a XG Mobile on Ebay for my X13 Flow, so when will rhe Z13 be released in Europe?

  • FCTermites FC Killer Termites (@FCTermites) reported

    @Huskyboyo @_james_inman It's baffling as I've never had any issue buying from the States, can I try and get the bottom of it - if you don't mind of course? What's the seller's eBay ID so I can check by "seller>>items for sale" please? If I can glean the UK/EU URLs for the items, I'll DM them across? 👍🏼
