    @writethewrongs2 It is sometimes difficult to return items to eBay so I prefer to use charity shops, as I can try clothes on or judge how well they'll fit. Most charity shops also offer exchange, refund or issue a credit note if an item doesn't fit.

  • Giveawa49971305 Giveaways (@Giveawa49971305) reported

    @mannyceo13b @Quailman991 It’s a hit or miss with TCGplayer, but it’s a legit site. If you have condition issues you can always message the seller and they usually compensate for the problem that may occur. Overall I would recommend them or just use ebay.

  • Cryptocoinhunt8 Cryptocoinhunter (@Cryptocoinhunt8) reported

    @sabhyac26 @Coinbase_NFT It could go one of two ways … amazing and there’s just mass adoption at the speed people use Amazon or eBay or just flop and let us all down massively !!

  • HJablowmi1234 Banjo Pickin’ Chicken (@HJablowmi1234) reported

    @StevenDdkatz @ccharikofsky I honestly think eBay standard shipping has been terrible. Completely inaccurate tracking and slower shipping than regular PWE. You’ve had better luck, it sounds like?

  • eBay eBay (@eBay) reported

    @Melisssavania Hey there! Sorry to hear you are having this problem. Is this on the eBay app, or are you accessing your account via a browser? ~ Jessica

  • Ontherushsport1 On the rush sports. (@Ontherushsport1) reported

    @RRubarth @ccharikofsky I was told per eBay that’s not true and you had to file thru usps. That’s one of the other reasons I don’t do it. I had a issues with a seller last month on a slab and had to deal with usps direct eBay didn’t help at all.

  • YanZhangMD YAN ZHANG, MD, National Medical Center (@YanZhangMD) reported

    It is certainly a problem that some people purchased items marked for pickup only from out of state. I am ok with cancellation, but eBay does not allow. I don't ship items more than 10 pounds in general.

  • NewEdgeGamers NewEdgeGamers (@NewEdgeGamers) reported

    Due to is being at PAX East this coming week we will be halting eBay sales starting at midnight tonight. Mercari will run at a slow capability until Friday. All orders made on Friday on will be shipped out on Monday. We apologize for any inconvenience.

  • TrickyDarciFox THE RUTHLESS MENTALIST PLAYBOOK (@TrickyDarciFox) reported

    @philrosenn @BusinessInsider in the US and Canada thieves steal others Trademarks and nothing is done-eBay has been a really bad 4 me. the good news is there are legal sites that sell services to pull down intellectual pirates sites. there are no laws until governments are hit. 🎮🦊

  • derycrees Deryc Rees (@derycrees) reported

    @Artemisapphire @EngineerMate @BriW74 Any child that can't sing is put on ebay straight away down here..

  • nathanbbranch Nathan Branch (@nathanbbranch) reported

    @greg_gucci_ @CardPurchaser Do you have the ‘90 Donruss All Star McGwire? My bro in law and I found one in his old collection and I was curious about the “no dot” error card I’m seeing on eBay

  • KateEmerson88 Kate Emerson (@KateEmerson88) reported

    @VeronicaPrice3 I think the bigger problem is getting cheap stuff from the Salvation Army or Vinnnies or a deal off Gumtree or eBay. The rent thing will be workable but there won't be any bargains for these people and oh, the irony.

  • bakebomb bakebomb (@bakebomb) reported

    @jordanbloom2 Take them down off eBay

  • macona Lumonic•Photo (@macona) reported

    @NorthAllenPoole @r_hoggarth You might also look at the MKS 901P gauges, sometimes they go real cheap on ebay and there are plans for little displays to attach to them. They will go down to the -5 range.

  • therealsinista1 therealsinistakillamusic (@therealsinista1) reported

    @stormzyidkk New they are 300 hands down new and in good brand new condition eBay you would not get that if they even worked

  • mikasnsfww Mika| Customs LIMITED (@mikasnsfww) reported

    sorry I haven’t really been active on twt something happened and I have to fix it before I can tell you all eBay my next step is

  • DrDanaEhret Dana Ehret, Ph.D. (@DrDanaEhret) reported

    Hey @eBay I made a bid on an item and the seller didn’t respond in the given time so my bid was rejected with no recourse.. why?!? If they post an item and don’t reply that’s their problem. You give no option for recourse, why?!?

  • romandosarman Corgi WiFi Official (@romandosarman) reported

    @PrestonFassel @jeffsmithsbone @laptop_lasane Same here. I keep wanting to go and buy a ton of issues off eBay just to see things like the weird sandwich contests again.

  • tummyjose joan strike (@tummyjose) reported

    @gween_bee i got in trouble for searching for boobs on ebay when I was in 3rd grade because I didn't know where else to look for them

  • goblue062919772 Jeff (@goblue062919772) reported

    @CardPurchaser @eBay I mean first time I've seen the "shipping address issues" given as a drop down option for cancelling as well.

  • pnwpotato Pnwpotato (@pnwpotato) reported

    Nothing encapsulates middle class DIY like getting my spare part on eBay, cutting my finger, glove box not all the way back in, AND it's still broken. Lol. No a/c for the summer!

  • YanZhangMD YAN ZHANG, MD, National Medical Center (@YanZhangMD) reported

    The problem with eBay processing money is that they make all kinds of excuses to keep the seller's money in their account as long as possible. They don't let you take your money out and keep bugging you to buy things you don't want.

  • Melisssavania Meli S🧏🏼‍♀️ (@Melisssavania) reported

    there is a BUG on @ebay where my localization lock on my saved list isn’t working to **** out international sales. i am not willing to pay 30+ dollars on shipping so i only focus on US sellers but now it’s all combined in one list. please fix!

  • D83Design D83 Design (@D83Design) reported

    @infomotiveUK @AskeBay I have had the same issue. Called eBay and they said there is a glitch somewhere in their system that they are trying to fix and may take days! Doesnt help when you have already committed to buy something!

  • bkovach22 Ben Kovach (@bkovach22) reported

    @ccharikofsky When dealing in low value, PWE is the way to go. I do a good bit of volume and have had little issues with the eBay standard envelope. Going to move more inventory with $1 shipping opposed to $4

  • SimoneSanderso2 Simone Sanderson (@SimoneSanderso2) reported

    An eBay search has failed to find a replacement for yesterday's broken ornament. How odd that a simple object can be valued so much and I still haven't finished crying over its loss.

  • datadili volume ticker (@datadili) reported

    eBay Inc. traded -39% below average volume, $EBAY closed down -1.76% $QQQ

  • BrianConnolly6 Brian Connolly 💙 🇺🇦 (@BrianConnolly6) reported

    @MickyWard If you do buy on ebay. Be warned, nearly always collection only due to the size. Previous rookie error by me

  • Sandworm3D4D Sandworm3D4D (@Sandworm3D4D) reported

    sometimes when i’m bored i go on ebay n search for random stuff n when i see a scam i put it on my watch list n wait for someone to fall for it so then i can see the bad review they write down for the very obvious scam like cmon bro the seller got 0 reviews n the deal too good 😭

  • Coyotesings13 Coyotesings13 (@Coyotesings13) reported

    @jdraymon @AriCohn @RadioFreeTom You're right. I was thinking of the ultraviolet enemas proposed by another person. Still not gonna stick either one down there, besides I know the secret to higher T levels is the Himalayan rock salt codpieces im soon to be selling on ebay. Stay tuned and stay T'ed (grin)
