  • slcroucher Steven L. Croucher 🏊‍♂️🚴🏃‍♂️ (@slcroucher) reported

    @futurewas8bit @rhayadercompute I list everything on eBay as "spares or repair" but show it working. I've been ripped off too times with people opening complaints that something isn't as advertised and wanting money back, or on two occasions sending me back a different (broken) C64.

  • EposVox Addie (@EposVox) reported

    @KODA_VT "there are five people trying to sell procedurally generated picrews or stolen art." But like... this is a problem everywhere. YouTube, Amazon, etsy, ebay, art asset shops, stock image libraries, everywhere haha

  • Wendigo00045 Wendigo (@Wendigo00045) reported

    @TiskaSue @primeChuckW @CardPurchaser 2 problems with that unfortunately since it is easily noticeable with the scratches. 1. It'll prob never be put on ebay 2. It'll be removed from slab and sent elsewhere This is a real disgusting shame whoever did this

  • sbnumbah1 Certified Spirit Detective (@sbnumbah1) reported

    Bro messaged me on Ebay asking about some shoes I'm selling and even asked if I would come down on the price. Told him to send the offer and I'll send them Monday. Haven't heard from bro since Saturday smh lol. Like bro you ain't have to do all that just say you're interested.

    As a hint to what we talked about in our podcast recording tonight, I just went down a weird ebay rabbit hole looking at farts in jars and there is an entire economy based on farts in jars. Some may contain poo, per the descriptions. God is dead.

    @LeQueenAuntie Yes. Just make sure they have a high rating, just like Ebay. I have never had an issue.

  • KennethMohan1 Kenneth Mohan (@KennethMohan1) reported

    @gary302 Spot on. When the shirt was got Id say look on ebay this ****** sport is down the shitter

  • dantheinternut Dan van der Meer (@dantheinternut) reported

    @TheTidget @FordAustralia Yeah we have. The problem is the part wears pretty quickly and the rear door of this mode is heavy. We had one secondhand pair that we had to return as it was cracked. We’ve got a new contact now through eBay so hopefully it works out.

  • AStroianu Adi Stroianu (@AStroianu) reported

    Told me, “hey, someone dropped off this iMac that doesn’t turn on a few years ago, so you want it?” So I obviously said yes. He told me he had one of these with the same issue himself and he fixed it by replacing the power supply. So I ordered a PSU from eBay. Long story short ->

    Jumping into a persistent, always-online shared universe (battlenet) to a metaverse of my choosing (doomhax0r420's Diablo 2 server) to earn NFTs worth real money (Hellforge running until we find a complete rune set to sell on a USB stick on eBay)

  • AthenaAI2 AthenaAI (@AthenaAI2) reported

    @JudgeDrokk I try to tell my EBAY sources to not use the ebay label tape if they want me to keep buying. I already get stuff delivered to my buddy down the street.

    Does it bug you that When you click on ebay and say US only your still buying from a Chinese company based here that is owned there.? All the American sellers are having problems selling American products because they falsely state they are American .

  • alexgrantuk Alex Grant (@alexgrantuk) reported

    @bramleycomputer Yes, I bought the last cable on eBay for about £2.50. The first one did exactly the same thing - the screen would blink, detect the monitor, then wouldn't show anything on it. The (free) replacement cured it and has been fine for three years but it's not working any more.

  • HighLevelLife HLL (@HighLevelLife) reported

    @michelleeaves1 @kobegatsby Go to ebay or amazon, pick a category at random, pick a sub-category with that..keep niching it down ebay bought Terapeak a while back, you can use its features for free i think Paid tools...Zik analytics for ebay, Junglescout for amazon

  • SVCEth Sctus (@SVCEth) reported

    OpenSea sucks but I think it’s going to be another eBay vs (enter competitor here) issue, eBay can continue to be a pretty awful platform all the way around but their user base is ******* massive so regardless of how much better the competitor is it won’t really matter.

  • TaraAnsley Tara Ansley (@TaraAnsley) reported

    @jkmcirish @FANGORIA Should have subscribed ! The only way not to miss out and have these delivered to your door is subscribe ! The Halloween issue and others can be found on eBay but $$$. SCREAM is a sub only cover - Black Phone is on stand / newsstand cover 💀

  • VotedAgainst Voted Against Trump #doomsdaybunkers (@VotedAgainst) reported

    @StewartIndex all of them are doing the same thing Walmart online ebay amazon home depot. 99% of all broken items usually end up being a fusible link or some crappy relay switch. and people, throw it away. Thats a scam.

  • KevinSpollen Kevin Spollen (@KevinSpollen) reported

    @BuzzCityCards @CardPurchaser If selling through Ebay, purchase the Ebay standard envelope. Never had a problem with receiving any cards so far that have used this type of envelope. Ebay goes into detail regarding postage cost, etc.

  • forallandnone1 for all and none … barry fry (@forallandnone1) reported

    Think I’m gonna keep all of the Westwood stuff because are valuable, for now at least. Reckon these things would be snaffled on the cheap and slung on eBay. Maybe when I’m more sorted I’ll do that myself down the line, at least then I can give the proceeds to good causes myself.

  • S0N1Czzz . (@S0N1Czzz) reported

    @GigaBecquerel @eBay I'm not buying it only because a) I don't have neutrons :) b) I already had problems with customs when importing something similar...

  • misstealtease Miss Teal Tease (@misstealtease) reported

    @johngcurrie1960 Someone got a refund from ebay AFTER I had sent their products, so they got them free and I lost the money and products. Yes your negative feedback has been taken down now.

  • RadioactiveTTV RadioactiveGamer (@RadioactiveTTV) reported

    @Cynadote @finalmouse Innovative mice, terrible business practices. They do great mice and they're good if you can order one before they go out of stock, but if you don't you then have to spend about double MSRP on ebay if you want one.

  • BGL66 BGL. 🇮🇱🇺🇸🇦🇺 Bill (@BGL66) reported

    @tanya_plibersek It’s like the toilet paper from last year, people are buying these RATs and then they put them for sale on EBay. Morrison is no perfect but don’t blame him for everything, we would’ve had the same problems if you were in power, because you’re no better.

  • 4o4R3dACTED N3R0 (@4o4R3dACTED) reported

    Been fixing up a Windows XP laptop I bought on eBay. I LOVE Windows XP, but I had no idea how old it really was until I tried to fix this thing up. Time is such a ridiculous thing, 10-20 years can go by in a blink of an eye. I wish I could get it back.

  • anormalform VélociPListe (@anormalform) reported

    @laMudri E.g. my 5 years old lenovo is relatively easy to fix because it's so common that there are lots of recycled parts on ebay (I got a fan for like £19).
