eBay Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • TheSirBarton Jennifer Kelly 🏇 (@TheSirBarton) reported

    OMG, I thought I was past the stage of trying to find obscure sources, but here we are. Henry V. King published an article on GF in the 11/15/1930 issue of Literary Digest. I can't find this digitized anywhere nor can I find it on eBay? Any ideas? What have I not searched? HALP.

  • YTMadMatt MadMatt (@YTMadMatt) reported

    @remurdyyy My only problem with ebay compared to marketplace is that every now and then an account will buy a product, and then eBay takes down my listing because it was a scammer. So then you wasted all that time and have to relist.

  • dabblerscloset The Dabbler’s Closet (@dabblerscloset) reported

    @M_DeSantis27 @CardPurchaser I had the same exact problem with a pair of Nike Jordan 1 Travis Scott’s. Did signature confirmation and tracking, “supposed buyer” received it and left positive feedback. Two months later, disputed with Credit Card Co. and got his money back! eBay protected me as a seller.

  • JeremyCorBAEn don (@JeremyCorBAEn) reported

    @FEFRETURNS @eBay @AskeBay Speaking to them on Twitter now. They left it by the door apparently but surely that’s not my issue. I didn’t put a safe place down on the item for a reason

  • IndoorHeroes CT (@IndoorHeroes) reported

    @a_jackanape What'd you pick up? I've been going nuts on ebay last few weeks. Dropped about £700. Need to slow down!

  • TonyKnight007 Tony Knight (@TonyKnight007) reported

    @FernBrady Don't be surprised if you come home from a gig and find they've (lawfully) broken in, pinched all your stuff, flogged it for £11,865 on ebay, and left you a cheque for £11,864.99 for the excess.

  • Kittybags1 Kittybags (@Kittybags1) reported

    The yw ebay dive is a wonderful meme fest but also terrible because everything is horribly overpriced

  • ItsukiSword Itsuki (@ItsukiSword) reported

    I thought I could get some cheap Dualshock 4's for my living room PC on eBay, because 360 controllers are all starting to die, only to ready that people want 35€ for a broken one. Then I look on Amazon and a new one costs 85€!!! Wtf is going on?!?

  • accountclosedzz Darren h (@accountclosedzz) reported

    @D3FT__ Try looking on eBay yourself d3 for the part if not I would sell it if it’s still taxed and mot you should have no problem selling it

  • jemmagrl jemmagrl (@jemmagrl) reported

    @ebay I swear on all things holy...I will deactivate my account if someone doesn’t fix email preferences on my account. I’ve been to the page a dozen times in the last few days and am still getting emails. Please help.

  • MonkeyMarl Monkey Marl (@MonkeyMarl) reported

    @kev__1987 New Morning? Do you mean Nashville Skyline? They were all poorly being sold on ebay. Terrible listing. When they never sold I contacted the seller

  • kane_pickering Kane (@kane_pickering) reported

    @cryptocom I am unable to buy off Amazon using my crypto card although other places like eBay are working fine, is this to do with the above issue?

  • ItsukiSword Itsuki (@ItsukiSword) reported

    On top of wanting 35€ for a broken controller of a console that is still being produced, people on eBay also write **** like "Works fine. Only the right stick doesn't react anymore." THEN IT DOESN'T WORK FINE YOU ******* DINGUS!!!

  • GunznPozez Gunz n Pozez (@GunznPozez) reported

    @eBay_UK why has my eBay account been suspended even thou I have been a seller for over 10 years with no issues? Can someone contact me about this please

  • sockdeluxe sock deluxe collectors edition - spoiled (@sockdeluxe) reported

    god keeps hating on me im trying to use a gift card on ebay and its not working

  • S0UNDK1LLAH66 Darren *Not bringing a bottle* Richardson (@S0UNDK1LLAH66) reported from Great Yarmouth, England

    @PAULEEMAK3 @eBay From now on I'm just going to use seller's who haven't let me down.

  • GunznPozez Gunz n Pozez (@GunznPozez) reported

    @AskeBay why has my eBay account been suspended even thou I have been a seller for over 10 years with no issues? Can someone contact me about this please

  • nectar Nectar (@nectar) reported

    @Kaur13Mrs Hi, can you try completely unlinking your card from both collecting and spending with eBay and then relinking them please? This should resolve the issue. Ryan

  • jadeeey92 Jade (@jadeeey92) reported

    So @eBay can make all the micro deposits to check bank account can be paid into yet can’t make the payments of nearly £300 of personal items sold over 3 weeks ago. Convenient. Yet it’s ok as “others are also experiencing this technical glitch”. #badservice @eBay_UK @eBay_UK

  • Flyboydave1 Flyboydave (@Flyboydave1) reported

    Why can't I opt out of all the stupid security on my devices. I don't have credit card or bank routing numbers on my phone. So when I want to check an ebay purchase why do I have to prove its me. Security stops the rightfull people from the information. It slows down the crooks

  • Sophs83 Sophie Soph (@Sophs83) reported

    @hail2thetealeaf I had this problem with a primer I use. Might sound odd, but have you looked on EBay? They still sell my primer in Spain and there’s a few people who sell it on EBay!

  • JohnMacQPR John McInnes 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@JohnMacQPR) reported

    @QPR Had one in my basket then the site went down quicker than Prince Andrews defence. Disappointed but not surprised. Just hope there aren’t loads all over eBay for silly money in a few days.

  • AstralTrading Astral (@AstralTrading) reported

    @ammandalorian @MikeyFergus_ To be fair, being listed on a marketplace good, but really comes down to clients under Brightcove using $VRA tech being shared that will have more potential impact vs getting added to the marketplace. That's like putting a product on eBay or Amazon, still gotta get buyers.

  • Mark_AFO Mark McCarron, CFP® (@Mark_AFO) reported

    @EconomPic pretty interesting to go down the ebay beanie baby rabbit hole. dozens of people selling identical 'rare' objects, and some sellers have personally sold 100s of the exact same 'rare' one over short periods of time. eventually, with all these types of things, it's ripe w fraud

  • roberte46763910 Englands Fashion, Affordable Designer Menswear (@roberte46763910) reported

    @eBay_UK @AskeBay @eBay #ebay what is going on with this glitch. 1 #sale since Wednesday. Cannot send offers out still. How am I supposed to run my business through you. You have just taken £82.50 for my monthly shop fee too and little to nothing return. This needs sorting

  • ibite1994 Paris Ex (@ibite1994) reported

    i'm gonna sell a casette player cause mine is very broken on one side and used and i need a new one but i have more items than i'm allowed to sell on ebay get ******

  • DarkKnightC7R Nick Guzman (@DarkKnightC7R) reported

    @tanmanbbfan Sharp card to be a 9. It’s an error lol! Somebody would try to sell it for $2999 OBO on eBay at this point. Further proof anybody can start a card grading service.

  • hayden75415242 hayden (@hayden75415242) reported

    @AskeBay why is it so hard to sort out a basic technical problem, I’ve been messaging ebay customer service for months now so I can create a seller account but your system keeps saying any phone number is wrong, how hard is it to sort this out, I can’t sell anything

  • michaelkazie michael kazie (@michaelkazie) reported

    @AskeBay my account has been suspended, I am not clear on why and the option to chat with an eBay rep on the app is not working. Experience has been less than stellar

  • DanielAbbott72 Daniel Abbott (@DanielAbbott72) reported

    @outonbluesix I had one as a child - he was the only Action Man I really wanted because he was a spaceman!! - and I tracked down a replacement on eBay a couple of years ago. Love this fella!
