    @Fantasyguy23 @TheHobby247 @sports_sell That's what is on Ebay. If you don't like it don't buy it. This is now the second time you have made comments just to be Jerk on my timeline. What's your issue man?

  • Captain_PUGWA5H Captain PUGWA5H 🏴‍☠️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (PARODY) (@Captain_PUGWA5H) reported

    They knew my address, my email address, the last 4 digits of the card associated with the PayPal account, even the last transactions on the eBay account and card were even sending me emails and texts all with what looked like correct PayPal credentials Now I'm a credit card down

  • ghutson Graham Hutson (@ghutson) reported

    @AskeBay On Ebay's advice I'm trying to ship my order with Ebay delivery but everytime I click through I get a 502 Bad Gateway error message ...

  • denden6674 Denden (@denden6674) reported

    @HollyStahly @kelammo @trendysalestore I purchased something from a Chinese seller on eBay and the shelf for £25. It never got delivered, I appealed to PayPal. They took the side of the seller claiming that my item was delivered on the 31st of December Thru Hermes but the code was unidentified. PayPal let me down

  • CrossroadPress Crossroad Press Publishing - David N. Wilson CEO (@CrossroadPress) reported

    @SGJ72 I was down a rabbit hole and found old Blockbuster horror movies in their plastic cases on eBay and it reminded me to ask.

  • Borealis227 Cole (@Borealis227) reported

    @JPrez44 You can sometimes find axis pedals for relatively cheap on eBay, although idk that the beaters will fit on a Roland kd-9/10 bass drum cuz they are so far apart. I know Brady had that issue, you might need a kd-120

  • knutsfordchap Richard (@knutsfordchap) reported

    @AskeBay Thanks to eBay's Packlink service not working, I have lost money shipping an item I sold. Really frustrating - especially when customer services "thank" you for 14 years' membership, then do nothing.

  • neutrino78x Brian (neutrino78x) (@neutrino78x) reported

    @jaassyy___ Musk is a jackass...don't worry you will find something soon. Put your resume to Google, ebay, etc most of the tech jobs are down here in silicon valley, sf likes to act like they are a part but most is down here... PARC could probably use you too check out what they have.

  • JeffTutorials Jeff 💙✌️ (@JeffTutorials) reported

    @SantoroSystems No problem. I got mine brand new on eBay for cheaper. I'm sure there will be deals on Black Friday.

  • StephenA420 Stephen Andrews (@StephenA420) reported

    @AEnematic @TIME And your bedroom to tear down your boy band posters and only keep the Justin Timberlake one, and put up nothing but budty foreign model pinups and old school muscle cars sell your Pokémon collection on eBay, and paint your walls black and put glow in the dark stickers on the fans

  • Kd7qkPaul Paul Kurimsky 🇺🇸🇺🇦🇸🇰📡🛰 #NAFO (@Kd7qkPaul) reported

    @Antiproton_com @eBay After checking out the power supply, the tube lit up, no output. They were told it had a warped bore. They were wrong. The mirrors were far out of alignment. They should have known better! I used a HeNe down the bore and adjusted one of the mirrors until I got …

  • COFightsBack 🇺🇸Joe Colorado 🇺🇦 (@COFightsBack) reported

    And now it will allow us tagging again. When I used to use eBay that would be called a glitch. I don’t use eBay anymore.

  • MaySpinel SpinelSunMay (@MaySpinel) reported

    @mashermack I am sorry I did not see your reply. I dont think that my order number will help since I bought it as 2nd hand from ebay. For arrow keys, the modification helps but I still not familiar with it. The problem is that you need to hold or click on MOD switch to use arrow keys.

  • saelantwerdy Minor Canon (@saelantwerdy) reported

    @bradcasey4evr Fwiw, I don't think Zara in any way makes a "good" coat. If you want something actually warm but not $$$, Uniqlo down is great. Or vintage Sierra Designs, North Face, or Eddie Bauer on eBay.

  • RecordsLess less than three records (@RecordsLess) reported

    @ValueAddedRS If you request payout, then need to wait for eBay to fix the glitch, then need to request payout again, that's not exactly "on-demand" now is it?

  • JohnHuckle8 John Huckle (@JohnHuckle8) reported

    @eBay_UK why has my biometric sign in stopped working, I cant get into my eBay account now.....can you help

  • COFightsBack 🇺🇸Joe Colorado 🇺🇦 (@COFightsBack) reported

    And now it will allow untagging again. When I used to use eBay that would be called a glitch. I don’t use eBay anymore.

  • LivsFoster Olivia Foster (@LivsFoster) reported

    The year is 2022 and it's impossible to imagine how we'll ever fix the world when there are still people who bid for eBay items before the last 30 seconds

  • Corey_WolfPack Corey Van **** 🥽 (@Corey_WolfPack) reported

    @chapmanjosh @SteeleWars You could probably snag one for a decent price on eBay, these were pretty hard to get at first but they’ve gone down in value since

  • abobrow Andy Bobrow (@abobrow) reported

    When I'm down I read my eBay feedback.

  • Commoninsense 🌱Garden Jean 🌳🌹🌿🌻🐕 (@Commoninsense) reported from Eltham, England

    Last year I bought some Hunter waterproof slip on ankle boots. (£95) Should have known better, I have a high instep, it takes ages to put them on, usually with a broken nail or 2. Worn 4 times. My heart sinks at the thought of ebay. Can't see FB marketplace being right place. 1/2

  • grahamhopper grahamhopper 3.5% (@grahamhopper) reported

    @elmas_artt @Parcel2Go yes. Trying to relink my ebay account and this is the message I get before I even pick the account I want to link. Got here because the existing account wasn't downloading so maybe something more going on. To be honest I am having more and more problems with the site recently.

  • darnstadium .darnstadium. (@darnstadium) reported

    Interesting glitch on eBay: it insists I have to pay for an item that the seller canceled, yet when I attempt to do so it says "this item is not available in the requested quantity". Damn strange.

  • shell333_ shell (@shell333_) reported

    @eBay_UK I’m trying to print a label with eBay delivery and keep getting an error message saying bad gateway. Help please!

  • scottyfalcs Scott Falconer (@scottyfalcs) reported

    @_Tez_1 @TheGeeksHandbag @DWMtweets There is a growing list mostly in Scotland that did not get a delivery this month. Distribution issues are the problem. I home some can acknowledge it today and let fans pay rip off prices on eBay.

  • stjeff145 Jeff StMartin (@stjeff145) reported

    @RonFilipkowski You gona be "Takin down names and kickin ***" still Mo? Sell that body armor you wore on J6 on EBay. I'm sure someone would love it in their collection. Your tune change does nothing for me. Shoulda said this before you asked for a pardon

  • boomgames1974 David Johnson (@boomgames1974) reported

    @NatashaCL7 I actually have days where i just stay home in order to avoid spending money. Unfortunately ebay can be a problem with this...

  • Goddessmontera Goddess Montera (@Goddessmontera) reported

    In the mood to buy some weird **** off eBay 👀 Send a couple hundred while I go down the rabbit hole

  • NettyF65 Jeanette ✝️ Doula and birthkeeper (@NettyF65) reported

    @LynneDMNoble1 Ah ok. The other option would be to sell it as a pdf download, then could be printed? It would keep down costs your side and people can choose to print or not? I’m not sure you can get that option with Kindle, etc? I know people sell book pdfs on EBay.
