  @HazelFever03 @divydend @milkkirie its more common then you think tbh, people bring in old *** broken crap that they want to get money for instead of throwing it out like normal people. although at a certain point if its pre-2010 or so you can sell it on Ebay and people will actually pay for it

  I'm wondering what's up with eBay? It keeps saying Server Unavailable. Anyone else seeing this?

  @DrewLove2345 @TheCinesthetic You can find them pretty cheap on eBay, actually. Sometimes they’re broken, though.

  After 42 Years, Texas Man Discovers His Stolen Car for Sale on eBay Robert Russell, 66, a retired sales manager from Southlake, Texas, never stopped searching for his 1967 Austin-Healey after it disappeared from outside his Philadelphia home in 1970. The car was stolen the morning after he took his future wife on their second date, giving it deep sentimental value that went far beyond its price. “I never gave up looking for it,” Russell said. “The fact that the car still exists is improbable. It could have been junked or wrecked years ago.” Russell originally paid a friend $3,000 for the sports car and spent years casually searching for it online, though he admitted he had little hope of ever finding it again. That changed in 2012 when he spotted a familiar-looking Austin-Healey listed for sale on eBay by a Beverly Hills dealership. Suspicious but hopeful, Russell contacted the seller and confirmed that the vehicle identification number matched his original car. He still had the original title and key, though he no longer possessed a copy of the police report from the theft. With the help of Philadelphia police, Russell discovered the original stolen-car report had never appeared in the FBI’s national crime database due to a clerical error in the VIN. Once the mistake was corrected, the case was reopened, allowing Los Angeles County authorities to impound the vehicle. Russell and his wife, Cynthia, flew to California to reclaim the car. Today, the Austin-Healey is valued at approximately $23,000. “It still runs, but the brakes aren’t great,” Russell said. “We’re going to put it back exactly the way it was.” After 42 years, the long-lost car and the memories attached to it are finally home.

  @GetSpurgd @TheRealZephryss Problem with that is that someone bought it in bulk so they can sell it on ebay for double the price

  @SCentralized The real issue is that they make like 1,000 and they sell out instantly. Scalpers throw these on eBay immediately and people who actually want the figure can't even purchase. Its like that with EVERY artisan so far

  @Polymarket A $599 Mac Mini is flipping on eBay for $925. That’s a 54% premium on a desktop computer in 2026. This isn’t hype — it’s what happens when AI server farms and local AI hobbyists fight over the same memory supply chain simultaneously.

  @eBay I can’t gain access to my return label due to technical problems on your website. I reported it numerous times but they’re not doing anything about it. Can you please resend me a new return label for the MTV t-shirt? Order number  06-14509-00586 Return ID: 5317791446

  @eBay I just had a terrible experience with someone from your leadership team Josh! He refused to transfer me to a supervisor, and his behavior seemed erratic and distrustful of my concerns and questions This started because of a fraudulent seller who doesn’t seem to be removed

  @_BarbatosLupus_ @Wario64 Not a chance, especially refurbished. Already updated. If u want low firmware, search on Ebay older models. 2116 models have fixed liquid metal issue like Pros so for longevity I would buy new models

  @BrianAhlin That is such bullshit. Dude has a "partner" for a $14 card hahahahaha. Block that fool. The process to block a buyer is not super easy, but you can google it to see how to do it. Take note of their eBay username. If you are worried about your feedback (100%) then I would refund, block, and move on. And give them a piece of your mind on the way out. If you arent worried about it, then let eBay deal with it. If you have your store listed as no refunds, and have clear descriptions and pictures, you will be fine. Its their own opinion and they cant prove that it didnt happen on their end. I hate buyers like this. Thats why I shut down my eBay store. It got annoying and I had to be a little ***** about it all the time to maintain my 100% Top Rated seller, and couldnt tell these ******** what I really thought.

  @Pittsburgh1Pete Indeed. Then its that pesky chase to get it back that gets us in trouble. But on the bright side, network via ebay store with a bunch of great collectors!

  @ValueAddedRS If CMA forces eBay to keep Depop separate, eBay ends up running two marketplaces with one team. That slows both down.

  🚨BREAKING... American student digs an old iPhone 11 out of a drawer, then pairs it with a $499 eBay Mac mini This is NOT a clickbait. NOT a fake video! His thesis used to take 17 hours, plus 6 more of soul-crushing admin Then he plugged his phone into his Mac and went to class Claude took over: opening apps, filling forms, clicking through every step No babysitting Now the thesis takes 2 hours. Paperwork isn't his problem One $499 payment bought back 21 hours a week

  Printers suck so bad, but I've cut down my usage like 90% since ebay made it possible to print labels at the usps office, just scan qr code and they print label, stick it on and ship, lifesaver

  @tadpolemilk420 @johniibo Look, I'm just stating facts. If you don't like that, that's your problem. And as for the demand: It’s no coincidence that the PS5 was regularly selling for $1,000 on eBay throughout 2021. No new Nintendo hardware has ever managed that.

  @eBay I recall ever deliberately looking at anything fashion related on eBay. Ever, but yet you're always sending me fashion related things to me. I'm not a vain child. I don't care about any of that ****. You need to fix your. Algorithms people.

  That Startup (@ThatStartup_) reported 55 minutes ago

  In 1999, eBay had 10M users. But sellers set prices too low because they feared no bids. So eBay added "reserve price" auctions. GMV jumped 40% in one quarter. The hard truth: your marketplace won't fix itself. You fix the incentives.

  Most eCommerce brands don’t fail because of bad products. They fail because: • Poor listings • Weak creatives • No data-driven strategy Fix these → revenue follows. #Ecommerce #Walmart #Ebay
