eBay Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Baggie_Saiyan Baggie S (@Baggie_Saiyan) reported

    @tylereffinguzzi Probably safe bet will be to use a proxy & order from online Japanese market places, places like ebay will severely mark up prices. But shipping from Japan atm seems all over the place so that's another issue we have to to contend with...

  • MchipsM Miguel (@MchipsM) reported

    @Jettagt8v80 @EStrutner Never had a problem with eBay so far

  • KWF Kenneth Finnegan (@KWF) reported

    @danak6jq @mkewman I appreciated that. Made for some good deals on dead GR1225s from eBay where I only needed to solder the compensation capacitor back down on the PA that has desoldered itself and was loose rattling around in the case.

  • AutisticWidower Autistic Widower (@AutisticWidower) reported

    An email from eBay says: “We charged your bank account for funds you owed.” I don’t particularly like the tone of their message. It almost implies I’m a slow/reluctant payer. I don’t remember such messages in the past when they took payment for fees after selling.

  • FraserC69 Fraser Campbell (@FraserC69) reported

    @feemcbee @JoebiWan94 Yeah, there are a few retailers out there with their **** together on decent back issues websites, a very few. And now marts are starting back up again, I'm hopeful there will be a wee renaissance. But there's no doubt eBay has largely taken the fun out of it.

  • TruthJu31836116 TruthJustice (@TruthJu31836116) reported

    @AskeBay Hello. Started a new account with eBay. Listed one item. Account was suspended. No way to solve/fix/resolve in circular automated help UN rtburger, eBay removed 403572398824 - Coleman RV Air Conditioner Digital Wall Thermostat 6536A3351 RV Camper Motorhome please advis

  • CaliCat58551254 CaliCat (@CaliCat58551254) reported

    @TVInsider @SamHeughan @caitrionambalfe Oh, yeah, right. It's sold out at the $8.99 cover price, but you can find it on Ebay and second seller sites for $25 and up. Why do you allow this to happen? There should be a limit on how many issues someone can buy. It's like concert tix. Scalping is now legal.

  • nonarKitten Renee Cousins (@nonarKitten) reported

    @Dustin_Kelly_ @Ps5stock_canada The problem is the scalper bots. They scoop these instantly so they can be resold on eBay for 2-3 times the price.

  • yourFAVpiercer 🕌 (@yourFAVpiercer) reported

    I ordered my ultrasonic cleaner, that’s was never delivered ultimately. Went back & forth with eBay & the seller. They eventually refunded me. Why my mama go get her package yesterday and my cleaner was just down there on a shelf 🥰🥰🥰

  • SandmanBen Ben Sandman (@SandmanBen) reported

    @BradBrownSTL @CardPurchaser @AskeBay Ya I sell a lot on ebay also and (its a problem) constantly just do things right away, so someone not like doing it right away is a me problem not a them problem haha.

  • ziedbarguiyahoo zied bargui (@ziedbarguiyahoo) reported

    @nkokkalis We have become facing a big problem in convincing the Pioneers who entered through us to the eBay application. Why don't you launch the “KYC comprehensively” program all over the world? this is not fair💔

  • KynanB33 My name is not Kynan (@KynanB33) reported

    @Imposter_Edits Client in LA just had a $90k instrument taken from vehicle while at lunch. We tracked down the unit (thieves trying to sell it for $15k/ebay) had names, bank accounts, addresses, phones…everything. Detective basically said it wasn’t worth the effort, but they have time for this

  • Thatone63299613 Thatoneguy (@Thatone63299613) reported

    @ClayTravis This is definitely unpopular with customers. Even ebay Disney item resales are way down.

  • TokuandThomas Zeo (@TokuandThomas) reported

    @emeran_l @ED92Magic Please show me where this is stated. If it truly is illegal, why are over 17k of DLP products on eBay over priced right now. Why is anything sold from France on eBay right now being sold for more than it was initially sold for? Clearly it's not an issue.

  • blasphemachine Blasphemachine (33.3%)🦎 🐧,🐧 (@blasphemachine) reported

    @Gossip_Goblin I was half way through listing a gecko when I realized that doing so would Dox myself. I think that right there is ebay’s hurdle to sell NFT’s. As an @eBay seller I’ve wanted to give homies coupons to the store and stuff, but same problem… #ebay

  • hannah81142 Hannah (@hannah81142) reported

    @jmvasquez1974 I had issues with PayPal since 2000 and have not used it in 20 years. I stopped doing Ebay as well. Can you just do Gofundme and your wife can wire you the cash?

  • UniJared Jared A. (@UniJared) reported

    @MMuldoonFL Not sure if it matters but ebay no longer requires PayPal, they just immediately send the money straight to your bank account. I’ve sold hundreds of items and never had a problem. I wonder if this is even worth anything though. I’d personally keep it as a fun memento.

  • SnowDaddy9 Snow Daddy (@SnowDaddy9) reported

    @theSA80SLAYER @Ghostplayer2000 You could get a fat for $45ish dollars so like 40 of your funny money on eBay I've had a fat PS2 since December of 2000 been going strong for almost 22 years pretty much zero issue and minimal maintenance definitely a better quality product to the slim

  • IntrovertGenius Introvert Genius (@IntrovertGenius) reported

    @gajinkei @PlayOverwatch @Razer Yea, that is the problem with ebay. I wish there was something I could do.

  • CardBurglar Vintage REB (@CardBurglar) reported

    @TimSternbergEdS @PeepsWaxPacks @APKSports1 My problem with USPS is twofold: 1. I have only ever lost cards through USPS 2. Tracking updates can be spotty I base this off about 22 years of eBay purchases and selling. But recognize everyone’s experience is different. And the vast majority of course was delivered fine.

  • itsflipjackson Flip Jackson (@itsflipjackson) reported from Boston, Massachusetts

    I went down a rabbit hole on eBay last night with Nike Swingman Jersey’s… Since when are used Swingman’s going for $100-1000 a jersey ?!?! These ain’t Mitchell&Ness their Nike Mesh & Stitch..

  • johnathancraig Johnathan Bearden 🦚 (@johnathancraig) reported

    @melmac0602 That's why I started and when I started with tmnt everything was inexpensive. My playmates collection I payed practically nothing for and now it's worth 10x what I paid. I even got my #1 1st printing as part of a collection on ebay that had almost every issue of vol 1 for $60

  • sononothing Chris Garman (@sononothing) reported

    The seller got this out quicker than normal eBay sellers and apologized. No problem. Then the postal service took over and has been on a whirlwind tour of the Midwest. Green Bay to Des Moines to St. Louis to Kansas City.

  • NCSLHallofFamer Eric (@NCSLHallofFamer) reported

    @NoahsCards @CardPurchaser Put on ebay admittedly high to see if anyone bites but I can take it down & work with you.what you thinking?

  • SpoonlessJoe $WAG BOi GOOSE (@SpoonlessJoe) reported

    Made the terrible mistake of buying something from a British person on EBay…set my world on fire

  • QfoeSicko Myjoy. (@QfoeSicko) reported

    I bought these fye ah shorts from eBay n I couldn’t fit. I ain’t return. I put down the bread n got into them hos

  • FreddyInSpace John Squires (@FreddyInSpace) reported

    @DinosaurDracula @PixelElixir @ShaneBitterling Just to chime in with my own eBay nightmares, I've sold about 20 things on there in the past six months or so and I'd say a good 75% of the time the winner never paid and I ended up having to relist and start over again. I don't remember that being a problem back in the day.

  • HairierStephen Stephen (@HairierStephen) reported

    @cyanideandjd ... i recently hooked up my old still working region free VCR with the intention of saving and maybe buying like big lots available on ebay that i saw...i have a problem...

  • faye_rampton faye rampton (@faye_rampton) reported

    Just a reminder guys I’m taking a break from working due to family issues and I’m selling lots of my worn clothing, shoes etc to make some money and space so when I come back from my break I can buy lots of new outfits ! See the links to my listings on eBay. X
