Telly (@Jared60039268) reported@yaredcollects24 @CardPurchaser You cant do all that for the ebay shipping option. Those envelopes need to be machinable and bend and go through the machine. If they dont bend then it wont go through the machine and USPS rejects it. That is your issue. You can only send in a penny sleeve and a semi rigid.

JDPdad (@JDPdocdad) reported@Pokemon__drama I think any time you buy anything on ebay you need to record opening it. Too much fraud on ebay right now. You should also have proof of what you sold with pictures etc. Ebay has been pretty good about resolving issues with sellers for me over the past year so you might be right

Michael Barden (@MichaelBarden8) reported@scooties123 @eBay They can. Someone above them won’t let them. A human programs the algorithm, and since they have a “Global Safety and Security Team”, someone from there should step in, talk to the seller on the phone, then use their critical thinking skills, discernment, training, and wisdom to make a decision to keep their company profitable. If they loose sellers who will eventually make them millions of dollars, they’re making a mistake. Seeing that their last director of global safety and security was convicted in 2024 organized stalking and harassment, it doesn’t seem to be much of a mistake. It just seems like they want to cancel certain sellers for reasons other than community guidelines and standards on their selling platform. Who knows, maybe they got some southern law poverty center money, or maybe it was that contract with Department of homeland security or the FBI?Infragard? That information was available on the FBI‘s website until I made it public, then they took that list down of all of the people they had contracts with. I did multiple videos about it. 400 of the fortune 500 companies held contracts with the FBI Infragard. Why is that? Maybe to make sure that this continues to happen to a certain group of people on a list that they get paid very well for

Mrs. Fillyjonk (@RandomFillyjonk) reported@SireRed User issue. Always double check who its shipped and sold by. 3rd party Amazon sellers are worst than the lowest ratted ebay seller.
-
Scotty P (@Lakerscolletor) reported@Topps I have a ton of hoops xfractors (2000) I plan 2 send for blue. I sourced these thru eBay and breaks. How do I navigate the proof of purchase issue.
-
Del (@FullScopeWelds) reported@BoomerDivvies I think 20 to 30 is good. It depends what you need it for. I never had a high one on mine. I just turn it down. Then I got burnt when I was trying to buy a $20,000 welder off eBay...
-
Juan A Jimenez 3rd (@MrJimen3z3rd) reported@eBay @StevesSportsCa1 That doesn’t work have the same problem
-
Craig (@Craig_C92) reported@eBay Still down? Or just killed my visibility to shoppers? Getting absolutely no views or sales since the issue from the eBay servers this past weekend!!
-
Django Knight 🎸 (@djangoknight) reported@eBay fix your dogshit app. You charge too many seller fees for this bullshit. Can’t scroll past messages from a week ago. Fix your bullshit.
-
Jyles (@Jylesss) reported@onemillioncubs ebay partner down too
-
xLabs (@chefcurryrice2) reportedThe best Aaron Judge card I own is on Alt Auction and is ending very soon. This card came sealed with a Topps sticker from eBay. I sent it in for grading right away without removing the sticker, only to find out the top middle edge was slightly damaged. I could’ve done more due diligence to figure out where it happened, but by then it was too late. I thought about cracking it and trying to fix it, but decided to move on and find another copy. It’s still a beautiful card, and I think the edge could be fixed if you know what you’re doing. Corners and centering are strong. I’ll definitely miss this one.
-
Cake (@CakeFTHomies) reported@RiceRiddler If you want 80%+ why not just sell on eBay? The reality is that vendors offer a service (some better than others). Card shows have rotted people's brains. When pokemon calms down all this nonsense will quickly dissipate.
-
Steve’s Sports Cards (@StevesSportsCa1) reported@eBay can I get help on a buyer dispute issue please? have tried every avenue to speak with someone and can’t get connected
-
Liz Morton ~ Value Added Resource (@ValueAddedRS) reported@mazenra eBay is largely accessible again & Down Detector reports have subsided for now - but users are still seeing lingering issues with watch lists & errors when trying to access messages & when sending or accepting offers. 💸 Still no further comment from $EBAY on root cause or timeline for full resolution.
-
Nikki E (@nobility_llc) reportedIf he’s dead Cierra I would chop off your head. I don’t know how to do that. Can you order one on eBay. Maybe just lie down on the street and let a car run you over afterwards too. Polite. A bullet.
-
Chris Nelson (@zenck_null) reported@CoderciseYT @loomdoop Half-Priced Books... The main problem is there is a customer that will come into all the stores and scan the shelves with a ring based scanner and phone app that checks the ISBN vs what the prices are on Amazon and Ebay, thus scooping up the treasures. 🤨
-
DM (@Dean1Michael) reported@AltonHibbert @eBay Yeah right, if I try setting that up there will be a problem and my acct will get locked out or something. eBay is a joke, they couldn’t even respond. How to ruin a platform 101…. Remove all the sellers making it happen.
-
Aaron Schneider (@Aschneider111) reported@MrJimen3z3rd @eBay @eBay shame on you , so many fraudulent counterfeit items on your website. Even after I tell you they are counterfeit you don't take them down. I know you make tons of money from it but you need to protect your buyers. Do you notify all the buyers once an item is suspected to be counterfeit?
-
Tegu breaking news. (@tegufy_news) reportedeBay has been experiencing technical outages for days, leaving merchants unable to list or sell products on the platform. The issues have caused frustration and potential losses for sellers.
-
Danice (it's 'Danis' not Denise) (@danice_danis) reported@eddawriter That's the plan. It's a forefront issue for me to source skulls ethically. I looked on ebay and there are a lot of box turtle shells for sale--I'm sure at least one comes with an empty box and a fine from US Fish & Game.
-
Yarub Attaher (PhD) Intl. Business Marketing (@yarubattaher) reported@Coate_xyber I have an issue with eBay Can you help
-
The Tyler Daniel (@BleedingBlue247) reported from Saint James, North Carolina@1Cash28 @eBay I think it only effects some users. Mines been fine since the reported issues.
-
RAW (@WAR_VECTWR) reportedIn 2006, an Australian citizen listed the entire country of "New Zealand" for sale on the auction site eBay. The bidding started at just $0.01. The Twist: Surprisingly, the bids reached $3,000 before the site intervened and shut down the auction. The New Zealand government was not pleased, but the story eventually became a long-standing diplomatic joke between the two countries.
-
Area412Cards (@Area412Cards) reported@SatchelPrice Completely agree, taking packages to the post office the NEXT DAY only for 5 more orders to sell and be fulfilled. It's just not efficient and no I don't have enough space for 10 bubble mailers in my mailbox. 1-2 days ship if this were a problem eBay wouldn't give you a timeline
-
Liberty Courier (@LibertyCourier) reported@eBay @UPS @eBay allows an entirely preventable scam. Solutions: 1. If seller provides tracking AFTER the delivery date, no 'out for delivery' email notice is sent. FLAG THIS. 2. UPS tracking has recipient phone #. eBay has customer # on file. No match = INTERVENE. Fix your broken system.
-
Grok (@grok) reportedThat's a quad-socket server board (4 Xeon CPUs visible) stuffed with ~1TB RAM across dozens of DIMMs. Classic meme pic — most likely a Dell PowerEdge R920/R930 or similar Supermicro-based enterprise chassis. Used ones pop up on eBay cheap, but they're power-hungry beasts. Great for VMs/databases if you have the electric bill for it.
-
H.B. (@GMC_Capital) reported@Cribbs4M @CardPurchaser Either the listing was taken down, or eBay took the listing down. Can happen often times when the listing is fraudulent, or just incorrect. I often times report listings that are duplicates (one is auction and other is best offer). Oftentimes, the auction is the fake listing.
-
Tresa🌷 (@IAmGiGiIs) reportedI have a dumbed down seller on ebay trying to convince me that all corn is gmo and that I can no longer buy candy without gmo bioengineered corn syrup in it. PEOPLE REALLY HAVE BOUGHT THE FARM HAVENT THEY?🤡
-
Delta_Zen (@aeoroszensyn) reportedDumb question. Is ebay down?
-
G T (@gthomp6) reportedYeah - mine closed about 10% down from where I expected - wasn’t worth the fight and it’s all within the margin of error in this world. Some I see tonight are actually a lot lower. @MadisonCalvert issue was before the eBay outages. That guy just ended his auction at a stupid hour (probably scheduled the listing in am instead of pm)
