    @silvia6702 @eBay @AskeBay This is terrible. Luckily, after talking to someone on here I was able to get my issue resolved but we shouldn’t have to go on social media to get their attention

    I feel like GME offered half cash and half shares just to show interest. The buy back will push it one to one in the near future and that’s if eBay doesn’t fall back down. It’s gonna get weird..

    @yoshijacksons It's bad because they're turning against MJ, at the same time it's good because every MJ merchandise on eBay is gonna go down!

    @btsmxstan Report them to hybe and if it's on a resale site like ebay get their account taken down. People are being bold. Some are clearly not ARMY who've begged their way to 100+ of freebies just to pick out ones to sell

    @eBay I’ve done this already and I’m never connected to an agent, just fed back out into FAQs. If you’re suggesting that I misconstrue my issue so as to be connected to an agent, I will, but in the interest of not wasting my time please provide the fastest path

    @UnpluggedRetro oof is that CAD? $80 isn’t super terrible if it’s like the crispiest copy ever but if it’s been sitting there a while I’d try talking them down a bit. unfortunately $40-$50 US seems to be the going rate these days. idk if the guy was in a particularly good mood or something but he was nice enough to let me talk him down to $30! always worth politely haggling if you’re comfortable with it. worst case they say no but I’ve had really great luck buying a few games at a time and asking for a 10% discount. that’s still less than whatever eBay fees are these days so most places are happy to make the deal.

    @GrandpaRoy2 Disturbing to see that potentially capable 'affordable' AA systems may proliferate. You can't buy a MANPADS on ebay, but R7 you can. Unlikely to take down an airliner, but a real threat to light aircraft, I'd assume. I wonder if I could register one as a class C1 drone... :P

  • TrippyAiArt

    @jrtradez777 @bankboy24 Nope...I still don't see the issues? Questions like this come with running your own buisness and an eBay shop is no different

  • EAGLESTATESMAN
    THE EAGLE STATESMAN🇺🇲 (@EAGLESTATESMAN) reported

    The harassment began after an article was published in ECommerceBytes about eBay's litigation against Amazon. Wenig texted a communications executive "If you are ever going to take her down... now is the time." A subsequent cyberstalking and harassment campaign against the newsletter's authors led to criminal convictions against seven members of eBay's global security team. @GM

    January 2024: selling random stuff on eBay. £300/month. Niched down. Built a Shopify store. Ran TikTok organic. December 2024: £22,000 in one month. Same effort. Better focus. That's it.

  • HankBobbyDale
    HankBobbyDale (@HankBobbyDale) reported

    @AltonHibbert @JCSCollects But at least sealed products are vetted. These random ebay ppl are not. They might even own the card they claim to be running a raffle for. Thats the issue.

  • WindyCityDugout

    @Cryptic_Dollar @_bismack_ I just posted the rules that are clearly being broken. Your envelope isn't flexible. I started selling singles on ebay 20 years before they introduced ESE. What does that have to do with your envelopes clearly being too rigid for the service? Say whatever you want about not having problems yet. They will come.

  • RandyTreibel
    Randy Treibel (@RandyTreibel) reported

    According to @grok, this card is not numbered. Meaning, there’s no evidence he didn’t wipe the floor or have multiple copies purchased. It’s extremely common for a flipper to buy all variants and reset the comp. Everyone in that thread in favor of this witch hunt is toxic and all deserve to be blocked and even temporarily suspended from @eBay The fact that he said it was delivered when it was not is mildly problematic, but could be true. It’s a seller skill issue to refund here.

    @esherifftv Theres this wierd stigma to motherhood ive noticed. When I was in for my A&P one of my instructors had a stay at home wife. Granted she ran their ebay page. She quit telling people about the mom part and said she ran a business from the home because they looked down on her for it

  • TheGapRock

    Deeply disappointed in @eBay and @PayPal for their handling of an issue with a Seller on eBay. Allowing the sale of fraudulent products and expecting buyer (me) to return the knock-off product to China at my expense - when the SELLER used photos of licensed product.

  • CCCollectorTCG
    Corner Card Collector (@CCCollectorTCG) reported

    @FeistSportsCard I do because I sell mostly low end cards anything over $20. I do ground advantage. And I rarely have an issue. I think I’ve had two items not received this past week. Both of them were from orders placed over the Memorial Day weekend one scanned in last night after they had sent the INR honestly it works. Is it slow yes but it does work and hopefully with eBay changing how the label looks it will decrease the amount of items not getting scanned.

  • ghhughes
    Gerard Hughes ( @ghhughes.bsky.social ) (@ghhughes) reported

    This is a $475 Mark-10 clamp for force testing machines. One of the threaded brass bushings needed to open and close it is stripped. And one of the snap rings needs to be repositioned. The cost to fix it will be a minimum of $105. And that's just for the evaluation fee - even though it just needs a new bushing, and possibly a new threaded rod. All of the repair fees are based on evaluations and repairs for multi-thousand dollar Force testing machines, not for their fixtures. A machinist could recreate the brass bushing. But that would be custom work that could get expensive quickly, and cost more than the high fees at Mark-10. Sigh... You'd think a simple 5" clamp couldn't cost that much money, and that maybe you could get a cheaper one on ebay. And you can. But cheaper force testing clamps are also significantly cheaper quality, while still being very expensive for what they are. I guess they're just such a niche product that companies can charge that much.

    @netakoh_ A kid I was working with was fixated on buying a particular camera that a youtuber mentioned was their first, they tracked it down, parent bought it on ebay, and then they hated that it at most did low bit rate 720p and was bested by any modern phone. idk. Took nice stills.

    @jameshalldon I am all for it. I checked that every night Eight Sleep uploads over 1GB of data. Thats a lot that it generates so somehow exporting that and saving + doing analysis on it would be pretty cool. But the Whoop project was more successful because you can buy Whoops from Ebay for 50$ and use it with this OSS. Eight Sleep is not that. Someone who actually buys one is heavily invested and paying that annual subscription without any issues.

    @_bismack_ No point in eBay / PSA doing it, just causing more risks on high end orders. Or at least raise the threshold to 500-1000$ to slow the traffic down

  • The617Hub
    The 617 Hub (@The617Hub) reported

    @BosCardHunter @BourbonInvestm2 Two ways to handle this in theory - the way eBay does it now or total sales and then total reviews (real) and let ppl deduct no issues. The automated feedback is usually hidden to users so it’s effectively total sales. I don’t have issue with it. People who wanna leave neutral or negative will do so usually.

    @bullyb170 We deadass have UFC fighters posting fake screenshots of cards from EBay to actively scam fans. We’re at a new level of down bad in this world. Dana just pay these dudes already 😭

    CoincidenceTheorist (@MARVANDAM_1) reported

    @OlderMedic39 @AustinTobitt @TheRoaringKitty You bought shares at $30 and calls. Again, it went to $80. Since then, turned into a holding company - posted the most profitable quarter ever by a landslide and is trying to buy eBay. The SP is manipulated down but he's doing everything he can to stop that from happening.

    @stevo_lewis Been paid of now so where all good. I Thaught I could do it a different way through eBay as I got it in an auction with issues but the guy said no it needs to be done over the phone. 🙄 Nothing wrong with an old Honda. It’s a Honda. Il be sending my center stand in soon 🎨

    @CultureCrave The movie might not have done well at the box office, but we do get some cool promotional materials. Hopefully, somebody will save theirs and we’ll get a second shot on eBay to buy one down the road.

    @gapingmaws Love International Male. I think I have some catalogues somewhere, if I can track them down I can scan and send. I also collect the clothes themselves mostly found in thrift stores or on eBay

    KuriusC (@c_kurius) reported

    @RupertLowe10 I wouldn't dream of setting up a business and I'd double down on that after reading what you have to say. Even selling a few bits and pieces on ebay is fraught. If you were to say make £1500 selling your own little hobby paintings, the government is after tax on that now.
