eBay Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • PerpetualDrift cruisin.exe (@PerpetualDrift) reported

    @Tokyo_Lens If you open it up you’ll probably find the issue and could buy a new board on ebay. Such a shame with manufacturers

  • MuskyElonDragon MuskyElon (@MuskyElonDragon) reported

    @EthanVanSciver @eBay Ethan, you have the dubious honor of being the second account that Twitter will not let me follow. I had the same problem trying to follow David Paulides. Twitter says I can't follow more accounts but it's only you and he I can't follow. WTF??

  • SamYourEyes It's John Brown time (@SamYourEyes) reported

    @catladyactivist I like headphones over earbuds cuz it's easy to quickly pull them down to talk to a cashier or whatever. I have the Bose QC35, I scanned ebay and there are some "new, open box" listings just under $200. Still not cheap, of course.

  • BFraggles Barny Fraggles (@BFraggles) reported

    @Johnmcurtis Ebay ffs. Never meet random people to sell expensive things. Especially in secluded areas. Terrible idea no matter what country you live in.

  • AndyAvery1983 Andy Avery (@AndyAvery1983) reported

    @neozzyzoron @HodderBooks @StephenKing Yeah the ISBN issue is a pain. Had some luck with Ebay - messaging booksellers to ask if the book sent matches the image shown on post and they've been good enough to check w/house stock before I order so that may be worth a try to save the pain of having to keep returning :-)

  • MitclaireNine Laina 🏳️‍⚧️ // Verdict Gay (@MitclaireNine) reported

    @Master_Drahl I go on ebay and I buy them for like less than $60 each. I fix em up and just keep em around whenever I feel nostalgic for a specific time period.

  • RondaSantis2 Michelle DeSantos (her/she/Cadbury/Nestle) (@RondaSantis2) reported

    @SethAbramson I think when he was running PayPal before eBay bought it, people would use it to pay for auctions but he wouldn't issue an ACH for said funds unless you uploaded your SSN and a copy of your drivers license. They would, however, write you a check. I would never upload a D/L

  • MrsTsixtysix Lesley Thomson (@MrsTsixtysix) reported

    @nectar is there a problem with your system I have an eBay purchase from 6th feb where the points haven’t come through yet

  • USABorn55 DogTurd (@USABorn55) reported

    @catturd2 The trouble is they will catch some cheating a few hundred dollars and make examples out of them. I stopped reselling on ebay because of the 600 dollar 10-99 maximum reporting I'm not messing with it. They can rip you a new one too easily.

  • JVNYC212 James Vázquez (@JVNYC212) reported

    @AskeBay Hi Mona.The problem with the situation is that the seller is acting with impunity because EBay will not do anything about this type of behavior. Suspending the seller's account for a period of time would probably get them to respond to EBay, but EBay will not do this.

  • DannyMufcRolo87 Danny (@DannyMufcRolo87) reported

    Had my ebay results and I have a parshel broken rib @MarcusRashford @raphaelvarane @LisandrMartinez

  • GameByNumber Rankil (@GameByNumber) reported

    @Demo_Kirby @usa_retro It's dealing with an ebay claim and sending it back at the sellers expense. I'd honestly see these where you get a cracked bezel, but still functioning TV, you request a refund and rather than being out another $100 to ship back and resell as broken, they'll just give it to you.

  • LtByrdJ6Hero Sanford Padilla (@LtByrdJ6Hero) reported

    ..Glory Hole on @eBay, knowing what u know now, it's clear KittyLoaf has more daddy issues than the # of random women's ******* #DonTheCon grabbed w/o consent just b/c he's a celebrity It's not her fault she didn't have $900 2 @Venmo @mattgaetz, or is it?

  • jimmyurinekin 🔪 LOZ VANTAZ 🔪 (@jimmyurinekin) reported

    @RecoilPacify // don't tempt me...... I went down an ebay rabbit hole earlier...

  • Qskeptic Bob Bruce (@Qskeptic) reported

    @marie19705 Don't be afraid to Ebay your car parts. I replaced a broken parking light on 20yo car ........arrives in the mail perfect fit $50 incl P&P. Surprising what you can do with touch up paints and standard colours....is it going to be worse than it is now??

  • lil_wikipedia Lil Wikipedia (@lil_wikipedia) reported

    In October 2013, Reddit user sirderpenson posted about a BIC lighter that, when lit, had a flame suspended above the lighter. He then listed the lighter on eBay, drained of butane. The auction reached bids over $100,000 before getting taken down on October 30, 2013.

  • joseram42318 Jose R (@joseram42318) reported

    @SHORTYPlE The most cost effective way would to be a broken one on eBay and replace the screen yourself but even that is a lot of money. I think the M1s are all on sale rn cause of the M2 being rolled out

  • quijibo8 quijibo (@quijibo8) reported

    @iwillforall @lockthecock_ EBay. Sadly. Lots of trial and error. Wound up searching 60mm ring chastity. Wound up getting a medium mamba with a 60mm ring.

  • bringmetheblegh • 𝖊𝖑𝖊𝖓𝖎 ☆ // 9 days till architects 🦋 • (@bringmetheblegh) reported

    i just watch the a slow descent music video on ebay what ******** 💀

  • NinjaDiabetic Steve Antony Williams (@NinjaDiabetic) reported

    @eBay_UK I need to make a complaint about eBay's handling of my problems, can I please speak to somebody "important" enough to actually do something? I don't mind you phoning me. eBay ID: diabetic_ninja

  • decryptorX DCR (@decryptorX) reported

    @Caradvicekenya @sawe_wakili because if both of you hit a bump and break the stabilizer link. the premio guy will use 2k to fix it. German guy will find it on ebay selling at $250 plus $40 shipping and a 3 week wait

  • FiredForEffect Johnny Freedomseed (@FiredForEffect) reported

    @BangSwitch5000 @tweettruth2me Degree isn't the only way in though. 99% is being willing to put in the work and learn. Most of our positions go unfilled for long periods of time - largely b/c people want to just coast. If you don't want the loans, get ebay servers and VMs. Install stuff, break it, fix it.

  • esotouric Esotouric's Secret Los Angeles (@esotouric) reported

    @thorbites We think that it shouldn't. But what happens if you report it to eBay and they agree? The listing goes down and the air raid siren ends up... where? It can be challenging to look after historic resources when a city washes its hands of them.

  • gt2andy ApriliaAndy (@gt2andy) reported

    @MrGee27 @nickymisfit Hopefully so. There's one on ebay looks same but has damage -- this one no longer advertised since I put down my deposit...

  • SamFacto Sam the Sodammelier (@SamFacto) reported

    man if I can just track down the Bivouac and Michael Petak songs I could rebuild this. I guess I could also just find a copy on ebay or something, it looks like it goes for like 2-3 dollars

  • ImbackWJG85750 I'mback WJG 85750 (@ImbackWJG85750) reported

    @AskeBay Absolutely not I gave U an opportunity 2 make it right your response :We're sorry you had a problem with your purchase. However, this item isn't covered by the eBay Money Back Guarantee. After reviewing all the details of this case, we determined that you won't receive a refund.

  • AskeBay Ask eBay (@AskeBay) reported

    @Danait70 Hello, eBay is aware of the issue and continues to remove any listings that don’t comply with our Artifact policy. Thanks for flagging! ~ Jessica

  • AayushDx Aayush Grover (@AayushDx) reported

    @eBay Fake jerseys are sold on eBay. And their customer service agents are like “We get paid minimum wage, we don’t have enough training to resolve your issue”

  • MrJamesDavis James Davis (@MrJamesDavis) reported

    @eBay_UK @eBay "Funds on hold – Estimated release on 23 Feb" Granted, haven't used your for a while, but, what type of bs is this? Have to sign up for DD's and now funds on hold for over 2 weeks? No wonder #eBay is down 40% from all time highs.

  • DarkUniversePod Are You Afraid of the Dark Universe? (@DarkUniversePod) reported

    Watch, now that I’ve reminded Dalton that this show exists they’re probably clicking around eBay right now trying to hunt down the DVDs #mummypilled
