eBay Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
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.

SunBelt Mindset (e/acc) (@SunBeltMindset) reportedThe bigger problem is the subcontractors rarely deliver the goods or misdeliver them. Ever since Amazon and FedEx started using gig workers, I had so many missing packages that I had to switch to eBay and only sellers who use UPS, or USPS with insurance & tracking. The GOP should respond in states that they control to also punish companies for using subcontractors, by holding them liable for lost/stolen packages, and to heavily prosecute deliverperson package theft with a minimum sentence of 5 years in prison, plus restitution

K 🇺🇸 (@klovsch) reported@hustleTiLLman No problem. We've been selling on eBay for >25 years. The govt always wants their cut.

Stay Predictable (@staypredictable) reportedWith the TO off the board for $EBAY in the near future, we now wait for $GME earnings while the note holders hold share price down in the VWAP window. Could an $EBAY partnership presentation come out in the mean time? Maybe. Would that rerate the stock enough to overpower the headwind of this VWAP trading window? Unlikely, but maybe if eBay is agreeable to the partnership publicly. One thing is for certain. $GME is very undervalued in this range, and if it is contained for the entire 35 day trading window, we could see some long sought after price action after its completion.

Chris (@peachysweetie55) reported@GoatBeardzDD First he pulls his compensation package because of an error and now he pulls the ebay merger after we voted for additional 2 bil. shares to finance it. Sorry but looks very ridiculous.

Torres555 (@ManuelT10293000) reported@DChibani That is a good call!! Ebay would have been a terrible decision!! Now, AMC is a real life time investment!!

Danny Veiga (@dannyveigatx) reportedwas about to close 79 ebay listings when I had a bad thought: if I ever need these again, do I actually have everything? so before shutting down, an AI agent exported every listing record, downloaded the photos, organized the files, and saved what's needed to rebuild each one. then it ran a recovery test without publishing anything. the restore test mattered more to me than the folder of files. now i know it actually rebuilds

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..

Markjono (@markjono69_mark) reported@RobPritchard78 Why was there an issue and some programmes on eBay are going for £25

Darren Johnson (@DarrenJohnson66) reported@MarkDJacks1 I do my big shop online with Sainsbury's and get household items of Amazon/Ebay but pop down to my hyper local shops for top-ups of milk, visit the bakery and the greengrocers and get a prescription etc. I would not dream of getting the bus to town for any of that.
-
Roll (@RolandasKol) reported@dantomlinsonmp No free parking = no shopping. Simples. Local shops already cost more than eBay/Amazon. Now you want me to pay the council extra for the privilege of dodging junkie vomit and broken pavements? Nah. I’ll shop online

The Feed (@TheFeed_HQ) reportedJUST IN: GAMESTOP ISN'T QUITTING EBAY. IT'S REPACKAGING THE DEAL The reported shift from a $56B takeover to a partnership is less a retreat than a read on what's actually achievable. A cash-and-stock deal at that size always carried two problems: a financing gap and a skeptical eBay board. A partnership removes both obstacles. GameStop's 1,600 U.S. stores become the asset that matters — authentication, fulfillment, live commerce. That's the same thesis as the takeover, without the balance-sheet risk. The 9.75% stake plus potential board seats gives it meaningful leverage even without control. If this happens, the real question isn't whether the deal dies. It's whether eBay cedes enough operational territory in a partnership to hand Cohen the influence he wanted anyway. What would eBay get in return that it couldn't build alone?

RetailStock (@StockRetail) reportedEbay currently down over 4% and gamestop up on the rumor the offer will be pulled back. I warned that ebay’s price is in part a bet on the $125 offer and was around $85 when the announcement came out, and lower than that when gamestop began buying shares on the market. The thought does occur- if this is a pump fake to increase GameStop and reduce ebay into a key negotiation season… it would be effective Regardless… it’s interesting theater $gme $ebay

Nicolas - Bourse Attitude (@Bourse_Attitude) reportedGameStop ($GME) considers withdrawing its $56 billion bid for eBay GameStop could abandon its $56 billion takeover attempt for eBay, according to Bloomberg News. CEO Ryan Cohen is reportedly reviewing the offer, although no final decision has yet been made. GameStop has not commented publicly on the report. GameStop launched its unsolicited proposal in May, offering $125 per eBay share, with the consideration split between cash and GameStop shares. The company initially held a 5% economic stake in eBay, but subsequently increased its position to nearly 10% of the company, becoming one of eBay's largest shareholders. eBay previously rejected the takeover proposal. Rather than pursuing a full acquisition, Ryan Cohen is reportedly considering a partnership or joint venture. Such an arrangement could allow eBay to use GameStop's roughly 1,600 US stores, particularly for businesses such as trading cards and collectibles. GameStop could also seek representation on eBay's board. The possible change in strategy comes after several months of pressure surrounding the proposed transaction and questions over its financing. In pre-market trading on Monday, GameStop shares were up around 1.4%, while eBay shares were down approximately 0.6%.

Fluff (@SenorFluffy33) reportedI got a strong offer on eBay, but would like to keep this sale off eBay. 2003-04 Fleer Authentix LeBron James Rookie /1250. I can send video, but truthfully, the only issue are the edges (very common). A BGS 7.5 did $425 July 7th, a raw with an upside down picture did $312 August 6th. $300 shipped gets it done. I do recommend sending in to get graded, as the 7.5 grade edges look somewhat similar to mine. The only other knock on that one was the centering, which truthfully, I don’t know how to tell centering on this card lol

Melfoy (@melfoy_work) reportedHis accountant found $3,156 in AI subscriptions on last year’s taxes. «What did that buy you?» He looked at the spreadsheet. Claude. ChatGPT. Perplexity. Obsidian Sync. $263 a month. Every month. Forever. Saturday he spent $1,200 on used parts. One RTX 3090 off eBay. A $60 motherboard. Ubuntu, Ollama, one command. Changed one line of code. Base URL pointing home instead of a server in Virginia. Everything worked identically. Nothing left the machine. Nothing billed per token. He kept one cloud subscription for the hard 20%. Frontier reasoning, client-facing work, edge cases. The box handles the other 80%. Drafts, classification, note QA, routine coding help. Electricity: $14 a month. Breakeven: 7 months. 3-year net: $2,400 ahead. His accountant will ask different questions next April. The subscriptions come back every month. The box just sits there working.

Chimp Out (@Chimpnouts) reportedI will not delete this time, that means as per the flawed system i do not have access to my .@XMoney account, that means i can't check for fraud, i can't verify 2 deposits from an ebay account i just added, i can't lock my virtual card etc.. etc.. This is a flaw in the system that i've exposed several times now. I realize it's my choice to delete or not delete. I already appealed this, i did the last time too. I said the last time i was going to close the xmoney if i had to delete it to get access. I lied, i didn't. But, i will this time if i have to. I say that meaning, if i have to delete before the appeal is seen, meaning more than 48 hours. It's a flawed system that xmoney is not accessible when your account is locked out, because you are being held by the ***** and x's terrible review system. This profile image is NOT a violation, and x knows it, but getting someone to fix it, it's another story. .@Chimpnnout

Ibou, of Self Made (@BackupHangman) reported@GavHigginbotham I swear if there was someone just selling every single issue on eBay I’d happily pay a lump sum and buy like, issues #36-now

Silver Bug (@qqkl1972) reported@TheSilverRam @tomtor___ Not just silver, lots of other collectibles are fake as well , same on Etsy, never trust those places. I had a similar issue and eBay will not honour refund if the seller refuse.

Giles Hogman (@GilesHogman) reported@No2ofTheBLB Bastards just pulled down a lovely middle aged Monkey Puzzle Tree. Bastards!!! In fact, if they'd advertised it on eBay, someone would have dug it up and replanted it somewhere. Maybe a good few £*00!!

🇺🇸 🇺🇸 Kimmidi 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 (@KimmidiFarms) reported@gunny_retired Had a high boost for about three months then dropped back down. It's like they rotate the servers or something. Used to happen on Ebay all the time.

Brett N (@BrettN89441) reported👆👆👆 @eBay for locking down their price check and forcing me to have to log in EVERY DAMN TIME just to check stuff. What absolute horsecrap!
-
TerpCards (@TerpCards) reported@EFCSankey @eBay Not yet. I spent like an hour on the phone today where they were troubleshooting and nothing was working. They confirmed there are no strikes on my account and made a ticket with IT for a "glitch." I was told it would be 24-48 hours for a response.

Reactor Vault (@reactorvault) reported@AyashEtienne @CardPurchaser I'm not having that issue. And just sent a card to eBay auth. Money is already in my account without express payout.

Abomination (@Abomination81) reported@WestCoast_Goodz Even then... no ****. I sent a package overnight and it turned into a week long nightmare because fedex lost it. I was just trying to save a review. I stand by my statement. Losing 5% of buyers that ask questions to knock out 50% of my problems is a fair trade. I also look at profiles with expensive orders... anything sketchy I just click "address could not be found" cancel the order and block them. Ebay has turned into scammer central. Just canceled a $700 camera order because it was going to a strip mall on an account with 1 item ordered with a very suspect name. Let ebay ban me, IDGAF
