-
Alex Romano (@A_Rom23) reported@itsgeoffwilson After losing $100K likely in the hobby they can’t provide 10% of the retail price back in cards and have a few hit big. That’s a problem is $500 tops chrome jumbo hobby get $50 worth max most often it’s brutal. I’ve stopped and just buy out of necessity on ebay
-
Adam Gray (@the27guy) reportedTrue story - In 2008, I bought the full 150 card atomic set in a binder on ebay I listed the cards individually a couple months later on ebay and 4x’d my investment. Thats a big part of how I paid for my down payment on my first house. Fun times.
-
Stalking *** (@StalkingPMS) reported@WatchTheBreaks @KabutoKing_ He's claiming this would increase profits. Where he thinks the 2.6 fold increase in cards listed and sold on ebay would come from is the massive gaping hole in his argument. [& even that dubiously assumes that the massive volume increase doesn't push sales prices down on cards.]
-
YungFlipz (@Blaze7412) reported@THEandrew_ortiz @CardPurchaser I sold on eBay, I put them in a penny sleeve and top loader, had no issue but that’s for cards that are less then $15
-
Ronnie (@RonMackPDX) reported@GrosshansKevin If the magnetic case is in a regular envelope with standard first class postage it may be too thick and therefore considered a “parcel” or they used a priority envelope by mistake or is more than 3 oz for the eBay contract. The 48 cents sounds more like an ounces issue 1oz vs 3oz

lil_nathan 💛💙 rotbb era (@zorza_poranna) reported@crazy__bard nvm I found a thread on reddit for people with the same problem as us and one guy yesterday wrote about it being sold on ebay by a german guy who prints patches, SLIGHTLY changed but for me it works.
-
Charlie (@Chalutzie) reported@dogspawnn @f4micom It’s not just about ads. Older kindles don’t support Amazons new ebook format with DRM. This means anyone who spends $2 like me on a ****** broken eBay kindle can download any book from Amazon, move it to their computer, and then “return” it, keeping the copy on their computer
-
nick (@np92199219) reported@BourbonInvestm2 I “sell similar” every 2 weeks. Not an issue for the last 3 years on eBay.
-
Winkel | COMMS OPEN (@_Winkel_) reportedactually so mad, got a pc for a good price off ebay, it was gonna be sent but then the seller said that there was a power outage mid update earlier and said it wasnt working I did get refunded so thats nice but ******* hell man I just want a actual pc, not this POS *** laptop
-
mountaintopcollects (@mountaintopcoll) reported@KabutoKing_ They already run the market. Why should they cut anything from their viewpoint. Whatnot started to impact them and they started ebay live. They will probably buy whatnot eventually and shut it down.
-
Jordan wallace (@Devzwallace) reported@PokeTeeJay @CharizardEats This is the problem there either chucked on ebay for 2 x rrp or whatnot for 8 x rrp with some stupid scan game attached EVERYONE needs to stick to only buying in print sealed at RRP btw whatnot streamers could still make money selling sealed and singles at fair prices
-
Chris Doetsch (@LLSportsCards) reported@Blake5874 @eBay @CardPurchaser The ebay authentication process is completely broken. There is zero consistency. I have had a card returned by the authenticator, relisted it under the exact same condition and the second time the authenticator approved it. I seriously question their training.
-
An Actual Fedora (@burrrgers) reported from Chicago, Illinois@seriouslyjokinn VHS tapes off of ebay. This is how I saw Evangelion. You'd travel to watch anime. I drove an hour to a community College to watch Spriggan in an auditorium in 2001. The watch rooms at anime cons weren't just someplace you'd pop into because you were bored or coming down, they...
-
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.
-
Thomas O'Brien (@Centigrade232) reported@Legacy411 I would source things to sell on eBay. I would buy key issues of certain magazines and comics by the boatload. Same with records, toys, band t-shirts, posters, etc.
-
Nick Ovo (@Nixedv2) reportedSheesh £50 down at the pharmacy for a few bits. Need to start budgeting and curve my ebay spending.
-
Emma Zingerman (@iam_emmazzing) reportedHey @eBay. Can you help me understand why you restricted me indefinitely because I paid my store subscription every month and didn't list items? And why you think it's OK to charge me for a service you refuse to provide? Better yet, can someone with authority intervene & fix?
-
maxx (@maxxbayo) reported@SparkMinus Gamestop's return credit is terrible. I reccomend selling online (ebay, mercari, etc) or local (facebook marketplace, offerup, any local game store that ISNT gamestop)
-
Chuck (@chuckiev79) reportedBought pimax micro oled in feb and the waiting is killing me. The more time goes on, the more people i see complain about software or hardware issues with them on reddit. I passed on 2 play for dreams on ebay. I swear if i see one more im cancelling the oled and getting the pfd.
-
Rik (@RikIronjaw) reportedListed a #Pokemon card on eBay JUST NOW, realized there was an error in the description and could not revise the listing. Why? Because I had a buyer within seconds of posting. Anyway, I messaged the buyer, they were cool, knew what they were buying, everyone’s happy.
-
Dan Douglas (@Dougie488) reported@zavvi can you tell me why your ebay live team cancelled my product just because it won for £1 absoloute twisted lips. It sold for a £1 which is not my problem but I noticed that when people over paid retail price for their products these never got cancelled 👀💀
-
em (@imsonostalgic) reported@pixelpreaching haha sorry its the rx100 II! its a great camera! i think mine has a little bit of a stability issue (or could just be user error lol) but im always really stunned by the results, if you have the funds they typically can go for around 200-350 on ebay! but noo im not letting her go
-
R3TROGAM3R (@MrAxelStone) reported@nachovonbaron I'm on the hunt for a 9" but would settle for a 13"...would love a built in VHS but most of the ones I'm finding on Marketplace have not working VCRs. Ebay is just ridiculous with prices.
-
BoxOpener (@TheBoxHobbyist) reported@CardPurchaser @eBay @eBay advised that it would back me and that I should send the boxes. Now, this guy gets his refund and the $1k in Topps product, leaving me down a lot of money and time. What can I do?
-
Forrest Robbins (@FWRobbins45) reported@Je5ton Dude I've had people go to my Youtube page, where I posted nothing about Cleetus, and attempted to post personal information. I've had people attempt to have my Ebay account shut down. These people are l legitimately insane
-
Jay Strellson (@JayStrellson) reported@SwipeWright I buy it in 2.5kg catering packs eBay £19.70 for 2.5Kg Expiry dates are not an issue with coffee mate. This stuff doesn’t really go off it kept dry airtight, dark and cool. On the wholemilk with the fresh coffee thing sometimes I will nuke the milk for 20 seconds to take the chill off it.
-
Spencer Giblin 🜃 (@spencergiblin) reported@M7_Reaper @OptcgUnc @KingJester98 And it’s bullshit and they should refuse to buy at anything other MSRP or under. It would stop this bullshit. Let scalpers sit on the **** or sell it themselves to whomever on eBay. Shops are absolutely part of the problem.
-
M Speier (@mspeier1) reported@natsturner Was a call a week ago. No written correspondence. They’ve closed the case. The 2nd card I mentioned … I just got off the phone with eBay. I made sure to get a call # this time. 1504253945606. She say this one also is a PSA issue. Name is Kimberly. I assume recorded.
-
Cristofer Ramirez 🇸🇻 (@cristofer0530R) reported@paulcarldigital I highly doubt it man! If they’re having trouble paying $2 I REALLY and I mean REALLY doubt you’re going to have luck selling them something on top of it. Just my experience in over 5+ years of selling on eBay and in general. Maybe different for you but to each their own!

🌒AJ vs Everything🌘 (@filthchapel) reportedBlowing all my money buying watchmaking tools on Amazon, and bidding on broken vintage watches on eBay...who want me?...
