  • FunTechalyst FunTechalyst (@FunTechalyst) reported

    Anyone investing in @mydealaustralia -- better get out. Such a worse platform where sellers sell poor quality broken products. Hard to get CS to get return and refund processed & no number to make a call to resolve issue. Better stick to Ebay & Amazon for online purchase

  • BradHellickson Brad Hellickson (@BradHellickson) reported

    @AskSynchrony Absolutely terrible rewards program with your Ebay credit card. 23,668 worth of points I've tried claiming via Ebay, via a statement credit, basically anyway I could for last 6 months with no success. Obviously this is strategic.

  • kamvachonn Kam Vachon (@kamvachonn) reported

    Ya'll I want to order a Mamiya lens off ebay and lots of them have ''thin haze'' is that a problem I should be concerned with? Or even tiny fungus or balsam separation?

  • piedpenguin D. A. Wood 🇺🇸🌊 🇺🇸🌊 🇺🇸🌊 (@piedpenguin) reported

    @gwardhome @smtravis And as far as ideology goes, I am in my 29th year and my base salary just passed $60k. I tutor and eBay to supplement. Ideologically, the system that has allowed that to happen is broken. The referendum is a fix.

  • ShayleeRobson Shayzie Kàizie (@ShayleeRobson) reported

    @NeoBernier @jimmygownley You can find the full Amelia Rules volumes on Amazon. If it's single issues that you are looking for, I would say the best bet is either a comic shop or Ebay.

  • colinkelly Colin Kelly (@colinkelly) reported

    The issue is how do you get there. You need a few hundred pounds to do it. There's some tech stuff to do and you need to be really careful not to make a mistake or get ripped off. There are fees. And rules. Like a high tech eBay.

  • jeffrey_schrad jschrad (@jeffrey_schrad) reported

    @LinusTech Just bought a 7940x off ebay for my home server that runs my nas, a windows VM to host a game server and a linux vm for development and machine learning work. ...Only to have 5950x go 40% off. should I swap or keep the pci lanes with the 7940x?

  • cubanism President Der-Elect Me (@cubanism) reported

    @t_vguy yup first it was an error loggin in paypal then it disappeared and lastly paypal credit disappeared too probably hacked through ebay sli

  • InTheMouthOfMa1 Van Hohenheim (In The Mouth Of Madness) (@InTheMouthOfMa1) reported

    @IneededDaMoney I think it depends on what you are buying. I use it to buy old video games and I have never had an issue and I have purchased well over 200 games on eBay from all different people. The reviews help too.

  • CardPurchaser Card Purchaser (@CardPurchaser) reported

    @SmithSportCards I've never had this problem on eBay!

  • CardPurchaser Card Purchaser (@CardPurchaser) reported

    Anyone else like to test your skills by searching ebay for psa 10 auctions, sort by ending soonest, and race down the list of cards ending in seconds looking for deals?

  • jerseystechlife Jersey's tech Life (@jerseystechlife) reported

    @davidpaquette @UnraidOfficial You could try to find used servers from eBay or basics from Amazon. Something like an older Dell server. Unraid will make it a fairly cheap storage solution.

  • midwestboxbreak Midwest Box Breaks (@midwestboxbreak) reported

    @CardPurchaser @SmithSportCards Tell us about the problems you do have on eBay.

  • boltsnkay ⚡️Die Hard Bolts⚡️ (@boltsnkay) reported

    @Steelerzfan73 @CardsSteelers @steelers This wasn’t intended on being a ‘for sale’ post but it quickly became that, lol. I got so many offers I didn’t know what to do with them, so I put it on eBay with a high buy it now until things cool down. Highest offer has been $1200.

  • AdamJX4 Adam JX is in control of Elsewhere 🏳️‍⚧️ (@AdamJX4) reported

    Okay, she'll return the doll. I'll probably recieve a different doll than I sent. And then I'm closing my account. I'm so, so sick of @eBay I sell on there a LOT. I also sell on Facebook. I've NEVER had a problem until now. Ridiculous.

    @FrizzelFry We just talked about that topic few weeks ago. It is interesting that tech giant has often slow, with bad UX website, that basically brings billions. Not only Amazon, but eBay, Alibaba, etc. IMHO there are two reasons: 1. Customers are used to use that website as is and...

  • AvoidAmazon Boycott Evil Amazon - Find Alternatives (@AvoidAmazon) reported

    @Pumpkin_Trucker @Daniel04607943 @amazon Unfortunately they don’t care. Sorry to hear about the issues. Maybe eBay next time?

  • StormydazeGreen Stormydazegreen (@StormydazeGreen) reported

    @ana_thedataguru I have a 2010 mac book pro and never had any problem with it. It’s 12 years old. But I’m going to buy another one when I save enough. Spend way too much on eBay.

  • CommonSenseP26 Common Sense Party (@CommonSenseP26) reported

    @eBayCEO I used to recommend eBay over Amazon. Not Anymore.I have placed my last order with eBay. Trying to straighten out the seller that sent a poorly packed broken item, who thinks he should not have to refund it. A Chinese seller sent what they had, not what I ordered. Happens often.

  • eshecker Eric Hecker (@eshecker) reported

    Anyone having issues with PayPal right now. It didn’t show up as an option to pay on two separate eBay purchases I’m making right now.

  • garysharp002 Gary Sharp (@garysharp002) reported

    @Pixiegal1117 Customer service is a joke these days, I had a horrible experience with home depot n ebay and actually home depot never even returned my emails and ebay said the problem was I didn't have my camera on, wut does a camera have to do with service 😳

  • t_vguy TVguy Cards (@t_vguy) reported

    so you don't receive a strike against it. They also said that all sellers have been notified of this "technical glitch". This is NOT good. 2-3 days? Come on eBay!

  • BlazinMazon BlazinMazon AKA BlazinSage (@BlazinMazon) reported

    @DCLjasonx Yes I sell my polygon wearables on eBay why is it a problem NOW?

  • CardPurchaser Card Purchaser (@CardPurchaser) reported

    @CODLeagueBets I guess there is a Paypal outage on eBay now? not sure about cards?

  • t_vguy TVguy Cards (@t_vguy) reported

    @3rdZof4 @eshecker ugh...I have no issue logging in to PayPal, everything is normal but gone from payment options entirely on ebay

  • CarolynMartinu2 Carolyn Martinussen (@CarolynMartinu2) reported

    @DevGreg3 @noplaceforsheep EBay, Trading Post, Gumtree etc all excluded. Some renters forced out of houses/denied leases because Rental Agencies & Landlords refuse to accept Indue Card - Indue often doesn’t pay the garnisheed rent on time. Plus what happens at Supermarket when Internet goes down? 🤬

  • Dkaz006_RS Jim Kong the illest (@Dkaz006_RS) reported

    @noah_seibel I’m pretty sure he took his EBay account down lol

    Very fat slobs count corn cobs strewn about volcanic ash wastelands created by impatient iguanas not wanting to tie complex knots inside of confined grain silos for almost no amusing story could every be written down quickly enough for haughty teenage Ebay artists liking.

  • GundersonNathan Nate Gunderson (@GundersonNathan) reported

    Anyone seeing issues on ebay when going to pay and paypal not popping up as option?
