    @eatlearnplay @eBay Hey ebay, I am now locked out of your website by edgesuite. I'm just a lowly home consumer who buys once a month or two. Zero problems over >10 years. No way to contact you - don't send me to your website, it will block me.

    As someone who does most of my business on @eBay these days, the toughest part of the eBay IT problems the last week or so has been the fact that listings and quantities have a major lag in updating. It takes like 5 refreshes for listing quantities to be correct. @eBay, any fix?

    @SireRed User issue. Always double check who its shipped and sold by. 3rd party Amazon sellers are worst than the lowest ratted ebay seller.

    @eBay is currently experiencing global server outages & access denial issues. Caused by a DDOS attack which has been claimed by the islamic hacker group 313 team based in Iraq. They haven’t announced anything & If I get any updates they will follow. #ebaydown

    Ebay is acting up, I’m having trouble processing orders. 😭 So fun fact: My favorite book series is Mitch Rapp by Vince Flynn. There are currently 24 books, with the 25th coming out this year. I have been reading the series for 9 years now, although the series is much older than that. My goal is to replace all my paperback copies with hardcovers. Which is what I’m doing on eBay. I’ve read them all and I love the series. But honestly, I don’t know how much longer Mitch Rapp can go, the guy is in his 50s. The original author, Vince Flynn, unfortunately passed away in 2013, but the series has continued through other authors like Kyle Mills and now Don Bentley. There was also a movie adaptation in 2017 starring my celebrity crush Dylan O’Brien as Mitch Rapp. I thought the movie was good, unfortunately, we didn’t get a sequel. Dylan was alright, but its not who I pictured as Mitch Rapp.

    @mnchies Problem with investing in cards is liquidity I had a basketball/baseball collection and it took me forever to offload + with the eBay fees and post office trips it simply wasn’t worth the time & effort… It became a tedious pain in the *** even as my collection did 2-3 x…

    Palmer Luckey sold Oculus to Facebook for over $2B. We had him on MFM awhile back. His story: - At 14, scrubbed boats at a boat yard for minimum wage. On the side, bought broken iPhones on eBay, fixed them, and resold them. Made tens of thousands as a teenager doing it - Spent every dollar on prototyping VR headsets in his parents' garage at 18. - At 19, Facebook offered him $1B for Oculus. He said no. They came back months later with a $2B deal. - Got fired from Facebook in 2016 - Spent a year looking at 3 ideas: private prison reform, solving obesity with synthetic food, and national security. Picked national security and started Anduril in 2017. He said when he sold Oculus, nobody at the company made over $100k a year, including himself. They called it the "100K Club".

    @eBay eBay Why can't I log in? My site keeps saying Access Denied. You don't have permission to access on this server when I just finished on the site 30 minutes ago. I canot contact eBay any other way but here.

    @PeakHobby I understand the intent, but this is braindead. There are people who go to shows specifically to acquire in-print product because they can’t anywhere else. They negotiate prices down/ trade towards their purchase instead of paying taxes + shipping + eBay fees. Juvenile decision.

    **** eBay is down. Glad I’m not the only one having problems though. Still, how sucky is that since there are a couple of purchases I’ve had my eye on that I wanted to hit the “buy” button on today. Yall better get your stuff together, @ebay!

    A year ago this would have required a $30k server rack. Now it's a consumer GPU you can buy used on eBay.

    @67gta390 I have a very rusty '97 f-250 plow truck...needed ball joints,etc.,had to source NOS stuff on ebay to get non-chinesium.The other issue I had was leaky capacitors in the ECU.I can't imagine anything newer being less of a nightmare to keep running with the electrics in them.
