  Piper Halliwell (@astoldbyR) reported 3 minutes ago

  Someone stole $175 worth of @eBay e-gift cards from my email somehow and @target basically told me to stick it up my butt because there’s nothing they can do but take my money. Yeah imma have to shop at Walmart now because that’s terrible customer service.

  @HXValley @2hrTV Yeah, I don't get the prize structure at all. Surely £750 is more than the top prize as well? And certainly less trouble than having to flog the prize on Ebay.

  @GhostlyFelis eBay or FB marketplace, always had no issues selling there!

  How do I fix? "...Attention! Your account may have been accessed by a third party. In an effort to protect your account, we have put a temporary lock on bidding, selling and the ability to send messages to other eBay members until we can safely restore your account to you..."

  eBay needs a system similar to vinted, where it gives automatic feedback if a buyer can't be bothered to (If no issue has been raised with a sale) Sick of being ignored by buyers to return feedback. My seller status doesn't improve. Ridiculous. @eBay_UK @AskeBay #ebayseller

  @RoyalMailHelp Hi is your tracking service not working? just had a very irate buying from ebay saying they never received item and when I check the tracking number its not even shown as in transit.

  @eBay #ebay should change the way they let sellers handle 'not as described' returns. If buyer is disabled and unable to repack an item significantly diff or broken, and/or can't get to post office, they're stuck with it + seller gets away with it. #accessible #accessibility

  Made an eBay account. Used a safe password and turned on 2FA. Login takes 2-4 attempts + captcha. “Wrong password” is funny considering I use a password manager. App won’t log in either, probably same password bug, 2FA or captcha fail. If this is how companies do security...

  @The_Bananaman I had every issue from 1986 to around 2008 and I sold them in the end for about £50 before everything on Ebay became "rare"

  @MadamEcto i had one of these as a kid and i've recently went down a rabbit hole on ebay trying to get my hands on it and the games i owned

  Just bought a banged up VP9 slide off eBay and a silencerco threaded barrel to go in it. Here's hoping it'll all swap onto my VP40 lower without issue

  @JusticeUnchaind What problem would it solve that eBay doesn’t do already? Nobody thinks PayPal or visa transactions are too slow, that’s not the problem that bitcoin solves.

  @MoneySavingExp Husband hasn’t used his marigolds for over a year- do I put the gloves or the husband on ebay? Trouble is, when sorting, they end up in a pile of ‘oh I like that. I’ll wear or use that again some time. Back in the cupboard, wardrobe or drawer!

  And you know what? Nintendo gets no dollars from buying secondhand or emulation. But they’re not trying to shut GameStop or eBay down (at least not directly with litigation). I could totally go buy a Switch, games, and third party controllers without giving Nintendo a dime! 🤔

  @cropperTV I bought an iPhone 5s with broken home button for £15 off eBay and paid for premium @Touch_Portal for another £15 and away we go! Far more functionality/customisation for fraction of price! Can’t justify paying that money for StreamDeck for something viewers don’t need to see!

  @StefanKrix Sadly I've already had to cut down and only buy from other EU sellers, it's not too bad for new releases but it's totally killed ebay/discogs for me, the prices are just not worth it when everything is factored in

  The Doctor (@TheDoctor_50) reported 43 minutes ago

  @TechConnectify I unfortunately don't have any stories of this myself (although I've yet to test a "for parts/as-is" GameCube I got...), but I've seen a YouTuber buy a "broken" Nintendo 64 from eBay — only to find it worked perfectly and was simply missing a Jumper Pak and thus wouldn't boot

  @TheFifiMachine @eBay That depends on the seller and how slow it takes them and the communication. All the buyer has to do is spend money.

  @Bubblebeamsquad Target. Was a pain chasing one down. eBay has them for like 30 bucks that ain’t bad.

  @OnyxOblivion @Rycaster i mean if you plan to toss them anyway, might as well at least /attempt/ to crack them open and replace the battery or ebay it as 'broken' and make a tiny bit of your money back i guess

  @Screwielouie81 @CoolComicArt I left a good few back home when I left the UK. Started looking again on eBay but a bit pricey to get them to Canada. Loved these old ones. I think I DID buy Bad Company again over here but down in basement somewhere. Rogue Trooper and Strontium Dog were other favorites.

  @washedbrian @ebaysneakers @eBay Stole $280 from me. Long story short, lead me down a rabbit hole for months, then they acted like it never happened right after I couldnt charge back anymore. Dont wait for their support, they wont help

  @J011YB @eBay Well they lost THAT sale already. To much friction. If I was REALLY needing that part and ebay was the only place I could get it, I would take the time to use their phone support to resolve the issue. But the product could be bought at through the A to Z store, I did not bother.

  @active_aaron777 When I’m selling slow, I’ll utilize the eBay auction functionality through COMC. I typically only do it for cards I’d be ok with selling for a little less than comps because the listing title, etc is out of your control. I’ll also run promotions to try and get things going.

  @Hermesparcels the seller I bought from has no way of contacting you about the situation of my parcel. It was an @eBay and has been on hold with no real explanation. Why is everyone having problems with this service again?! Awful!!!!

  @TechConnectify For a second there I thought you were talking about the dog being listed on eBay as "for parts, not working". Was relieved to read the last sentence and realise it was a camera.

  @csuwildcat @SamuelPatt Fully agree. I think there is a world of a difference in aim and ambition between instantly and simply swapping 2 digital assets vs taking on Amazon or Ebay with an online p2p market. Easier problem solved well + speculative NFT product + human greed = much higher user turnout
