    @semperlenity @azraelart_ Ooo my post needs to be updated tbh but for now your best bet is otsukai or maybe on ebay because the 2 cheapest options arent available atm, with aitaikuji’s stock sold out and not updated a while and yattatokyo not responding due to covid issues probably 😭😭

  • matttt35 Matt (@matttt35) reported

    And now another problem is autographed jerseys. Accounts are now popping up selling autographed sports jerseys at obviously too low prices and they're just ripping pictures from current eBay listings.

  • SleepyEntropy sleepyentropy (@SleepyEntropy) reported

    @Random_Robbie @pry0cc ~£14-15 on amazon (I feel like sometimes down to like £12 maybe?) £13 on ebay They come in a comically large bag and put a smile on everybody's face

  • purpIereign_ danny boi 🌹 (@purpIereign_) reported

    All things considered I did well! $19 after tax/shipping for LANY’s self titled on eBay (I brought it down $5!) $14 for Phoenix’s Wolfgang Amadeus because it was cheap and had some bops (!) $37 on the SJ Giants mystery box thing with two fitted New Era hats and a bobblehead

  • andrewvannucci2 andrew vannucci (@andrewvannucci2) reported

    @KIopptinho @AnfieldMagic The only down side is i had to buy a usb stick from ebay with all correct kits etc to download to game. But its definitely worth it.

  • Shireknight Shireknight 🇬🇧 (@Shireknight) reported

    @MasterPikachu13 @PlayStationUK @PlayStationEU In fact you can't even blame them, everyone wants to make money because that's how we are programmed growing up, the real culprits are sites like EBay and Amazon. If they had rules that nothing can be listed for higher than the RRP it would immediately solve all problems.

  • LuluBrooks15 LuluBrooks#BorisJohnsonIsAMurderer (@LuluBrooks15) reported

    @lesserspottedH By and large. I've lived remotely for 26 years and buy nearly everything online. Everyone may hate Amazon, but they have an excellent returns policy. Ebay are pretty good too, if something gets broken, for instance.

    I see someone was selling a Nintendo Switch on ebay for $170, but it has the joycon issue. Hey @NintendoAmerica be a shame if there happened to be a small review website / media group who would take advantage of that lawsuit you lost. About defunct joycons, now wouldn't It?

  • KyleDeming1 Kyle Deming (@KyleDeming1) reported

    @Eisenberg43 There’s 600,000+ people into TS now and they’re bragging about 28k people? And people get mad when they sell their TS stuff on eBay, Twitter, etc. and not in the marketplace. Does no one else feel that this is completely fishy. I’ll say it again. Liquidity issue.

  • SuperSolaris paul littlejohn (@SuperSolaris) reported

    @eBay_UK hi can I Dm you please as I have an unresolved issue with a buyer and the eBay web site isn’t answering my query .

  • LabGeekGirl LabGeek,Ph.D. (@LabGeekGirl) reported

    @MsWynsome Yeah esp for stuff like this. In the past few years too many big sellers & sellers that ship from China have flooded it. It’s unfortunate. It makes it hard as a shopper snd their volume will always swamp smaller sellers. eBay has the same problem of course.

  • TopHatGamingMan 🇬🇧 🇬🇧 Top Hat Gaming Man 🇬🇧 🇬🇧 (@TopHatGamingMan) reported

    Question to techy people, I have a high-end gaming laptop and recently purchased a second hand Elgato HD Capture card from ebay. Whenever I try and use it, it comes up ''there has been a serious error'' and my computer restarts. Have I been sold a broken capture card?

  • AskeBay Ask eBay (@AskeBay) reported

    @ydj9311 Sorry for the trouble! If it is the hold we're thinking of the reply email needs to come from within your My Messages section in eBay. If you can reply from there? Let us know if you run into any other issues. Thank you! ~Lyndsey

  • Baconpancake77 Micah Mc (@Baconpancake77) reported

    @johnblueriggs Bought 1 day 1 and returned the next day. didnt buy another till the New version in 2014 or so. Never got into it as i found it uncomfortable to use. Sold it later on ebay as I bought games with it. made my money back no issue. I dont play switch handheld for that same reason.

  • EmberBraix 🔥Ember 🔞 (@EmberBraix) reported

    Warning to everyone using eBay: I just had a video game console and 3ds game taken down by Nintendo themselves for bogus reasons. Be careful what you put on eBay.

  • Wyatt_AH Wyatt (@Wyatt_AH) reported

    @Puppyco6702_alt @Ben82234751 He bought it broken on ebay

  • DylanW419 Dylan (@DylanW419) reported from Charlotte, North Carolina

    @realZachDarrow @landoncassill The Karen’s on eBay are the worst. I tried selling stuff and losing about $50 from it in shipping because the Karen’s demanded refunds and eBay bows down to them and makes the Sellers accept the refund.

  • AlextheHorse2 Alex the Horse (@AlextheHorse2) reported

    @lixzio But that was also an issue I had when I bought it. Replaced oil pan gasket and wound up having to replace two pistons because it was the only way to get new rod bolts. Got lucky with some ebay finds and two NOS pistons lol

  • historyinprintx Vintage Ephemera (@historyinprintx) reported

    hi @ebay @askebay the end listing button on the classic view is not working? Click on the button and it take you to watched items. Is this being fixed ASAP? How do I end listings as I don't want some of them to auto relist and occur a fee.

  • bloodbiite Crissy 🍓 (@bloodbiite) reported

    @masterSIGIL Idk how you can live down south it’s ******* horrible :( yeah that’s fair maybe try eBay too

  • jwflame John Ward (@jwflame) reported

    @sparky_winter If the tiles are staying, another option is to buy some stainless steel discs slightly larger than the hole in the tiles, and drill a suitable smaller hole in them for the light. Fix with adhesive. Stainless steel discs can be obtained on ebay.

  • m1dst James Patterson (@m1dst) reported

    @KangaSales Do you mean BATC? What issues did they have? There are plenty of options. You can even buy some copper plate on eBay and make it yourself. I’ve made a few with brass plates and copper pipe too.

  • uro55 Nick Stewart (@uro55) reported

    @eBay I got charged tax on a product that I shouldn't have. How do I fix this? Thanks!!
