-
A.P.O.C (@AOchiawuto) reported@AirtelNigeria @FarooqOreagba Airtel Nigeria, why is your service so poor? I’ve tried registering on eBay, but the verification code never arrives on my Airtel line. Yet, the same code comes through immediately on MTN. What’s wrong with Airtel? Is Nigeria cursed? Please fix your SMS service!
-
Chucky (@MasterChuck895) reported@Dookie_Trousers Yeah, not sure how that works. If that’s the case everything we sell is illegal every little collecting agenda is illegal. They might as well shut down eBay and TCG 💀
-
GiantCrustacean (@BeCrustacean) reported@ConceptualJames Competition for clicks is getting very very comptetitive and the pressure to create consistent media output. Increase in fearmongering and ragebaiting, AI content is driving overall quality down to the lowest common denominator. This happened to Ebay in the 2000's.

Jenny Jen Jennifer VCR Queen (@vcrqueenjen) reported@FoxgirlGoRawr Yep! Overall, I've not had terrible luck with returns given the amount of things I've sold on ebay but it does happen from time to time & for some cursed reason I've had a few returns in the past couple weeks. It's abnormal to have multiple in such a short time and I don't like it lol

Yianni (@fishytuxedo) reported@WristByAde I wonder about authenticity when I buy watches off eBay. I don’t spend much and I can’t imagine the oddballs I do buy are worth the trouble to counterfeit. I think the big issues I have are with “Frankenwatches” so watches that are put together with non-original parts
-
🦊 (@whatthefox___) reported@kaetoceros Only people on eBay are paying that much and the sales are slowing down. People at my locals were selling them for 150
-
Andrew (@AndrewMack123) reported@DanzelAlex Just unscrew the panels, and take them down normally! 🤦 Then you can put them up in your next place or sell them on ebay to recoup your losses! 🤦
-
collectorfix (@collectorfix) reported@CardPurchaser @CardPurchaser why have you all-of-a-sudden been focusing primarily on selling cards and how on eBay lately? Like micro breaking it down. Like obsessed with it.
-
Eric the Red / Kelenic Collector (@FatherBreaks) reportedI think that every time EBay or another platform has issues they should reduce the fees for the equivalent amount of time.
-
Derek Huntley (@BigDerek_KU) reported@eBay fix your app. I’m tired of getting live notifications when I have them turned off. Beyond annoying!

GamerTex (@GamerTex) reportedAdam Gray on YT was talking about fake patches today going back to 2007. According to Upper Deck they have staff on hand now that saw it happen in 2001!! Personally I think the current UD story is BS as this is the 3rd time they have changed the story on this card but they did say it recently. The latest UD version is someone pulled one of the first Kobe Patch cards and immediately swapped it into this card and they have someone on staff that remembers them doing it in 2001 ish. In 1999 UD told me about this specific card and another patch card when I asked them what the future of patch card looked like. They instead told me about the best and worst Patches they had seen so far while they were testing. I ran a cron job from my GameJersey server to search ebay and the newsgroups for these cards. A few years later I found this card on eBay from a highly rated seller that sold boxes and cases and, at the time, a rather large Kobe collection. I inquired and they said it was a gift from UD to someone who had passed. Around 2012 I had to call UDA about the first 1 of 1 Game Jersey card ever made because it didnt show up with their online verification and has a phone number to verify. After doing that I inquired about this card and after a few transfers I was told that my card was a fake and they were floating around the past few months. I assured them mine had providence and was in my collection for years at this point. They shrugged and said they didnt have anything further to add.

Zamiel Cano (@ZamielJC) reported@PeakHobby @BosCardHunter I have had issues with eBay which is USPS. BGS10 Miss Fortune Showcase “Lost” Total bullshit

Amanda 🥀 (@lxveatfirstbite) reported@AFRAlD0FTHEDARK I just bought a long chain from eBay and cut each bit down to size

NVSportsCards (@NVSportsCards) reported@CardsMax If Comc didn’t take 6 months to process or ship, they could have caused real problems for ebay.

J & C Collectibles (@JC_colleccoast) reported🚨 SOS Card Peeps! Need some help ASAP please. 🚨 I received an offer on My Acuff 1/1 card on eBay. The guy offered me a fair price and is now negotiating with me…I’m totally fine with that, but in our chat (on eBay) the user name keeps changing…when I click on the first name at the top of the chat it seems like he is a legit seller/buyer. When the other name pops up, it says “error” Is someone trying to scam me or is this some kind of issue with eBay’s messaging?!? Thanks in advance!
-
Dorian Muthig (@dorianmuthig) reported@RDKLInc Yeah… they don’t want to give you the working ones anymore, either. It’s starting to get so bad, even the repairable ones are sorted out first, too. Even on eBay, most “defective, for parts, not working”, are listed after repair attempts only, and they try to scam not disclosing
-
DeePlaysGaming (@DeePlaysGaming) reported@robert_m45 @Pirat_Nation then when your discs that you cant use become so rare you can charge 3 times the amount you paid for it on ebay blaming disc drives not working is lame when a game licence runs out that gets taken from you for good and you signed up for it...we all did with any digital game.
-
XRPL Forum (@xrpforum) reported@FinanceLancelot Was on the phone with eBay today, the agent told me with humor he basically does not have to do anything anymore, its all handled with AI Agents that make all the decisions and process the issues, he's literally just there because we want to speak to real people still.
-
T-Bob Hebert (@TBob53) reportedI remember getting this issue in a giant haul from eBay when I was younger
-
Florida Sports Card Haven (@flasprtscardhvn) reported@Gbpoker0710 Thanks man.. I sure hope not. Hope just emptying the stomach and going home tomorrow. Shut my ebay down for 2 weeks just in case. 👊
-
auburn35 (@35auburn) reported@renoipgp That's true, I was just highlighting a new account that registered after the other eBay accounts were shutdown. Obviously very little effort from eBay to keep problem sellers off the site.
-
Sj (@Pkrguy23) reported@clarkknowscards DM me and I will tell you how I got out of eBay jail from their error which plagued me for almost 6 months. Should work the same for you.

Tel3 (@Tel3133186) reported@bertie4lily Can't say I've had problems with Ebay, usually cheaper and free postage.

James Sager:Father of the Smart Phone,AI,Techaform (@JamesSager) reported@grok @iamelijahfloyd @Grok I bought several magnets like that on ebay in order to work on a SRM motor... How would they be mounted so they're engaged to slow a metal disc like a tire rim?

Saul (@SaulSellsStuff) reportedNot sure who needs to hear this but you can spend $100,000+ a month just using Amazon as your source of inventory. You can do this at 40%+ ROI. You can beat section 3s and account health problems. You can sell your inventory on Amazon, Walmart, eBay, Whatnot, TikTok, or locally. If you’re an Amazon seller you can also get a complete P&L, cash flow analytics, ungating support, reimbursements, product monitoring, replen dashboards, FBM tracking, order tracking, and more. For free, then $3 a day. You can be as weird as me and do it all from your phone if you’d like. We are building the most complete software package publicly available. Taking no profits out. Doubling down on team and partnerships.

Naomi June (@njkjh00) reported@united_imadoki Buying a broken laser pointer for 15 really set the bar for everything sold on eBay ever since

Mr Hankey (@hivanchi) reported@eBay your platform is hurting buyers(im also a seller) The return process is broken. Theres no way to talk to people in the US, either by message or call. Some of your reps read the same script over and over again. Ask you for useless information that leads nowhere.
