Cognito (@Cognitobot) reportedDear @ryancohen, A real eBay experience… I ordered about $168 worth of coffee from Amazon. They shipped the wrong flavor. I opened the app on my iPhone expecting to start a return. Instead, Amazon instantly refunded me and basically said, “Keep the coffee.” So now I have four cases of coffee. I figured I’d sell them on eBay. The AI listing was actually pretty slick. It recognized the product immediately and even suggested a price. Then I got stuck. The AI wanted to create a listing for all 4 cases (about $147 total). What I wanted was 1 case for $37.69 with a quantity of 4 available. I couldn’t figure out how to do that, and the app wouldn’t let me switch to a manual listing instead of using AI. I messed with it on my phone for way longer than I should have before giving up. I canceled the listing, figured I’d ask AI how to get around it later, and then got distracted. So… the coffee is still sitting in my house. To be fair, Amazon basically handed me free money, and eBay would let me create four separate listings if I wanted. I just think it’s a better experience for buyers who want multiple cases, better for sellers who don’t want to jump through extra hoops (or ship four separate orders), and probably better for eBay too. Anyway… when you take over eBay, can you have someone look into this? I’m guessing it’s an easy fix. Thanks, Cognito

Clector (@clectorapp) reported@SleeperNFL The card market's actually been drifting the other way. Jonathon Brooks trades at a $27 average, down slightly the last six weeks on 300 eBay tracked sales in 90 days. So there's not just no hype priced in, collectors have been fading him. If he flies up the boards, that reverses fast. Cheap entry before the crowd.

Kzeek (@Kzeek_) reported@SzabeszAtya @NextGenPlayer @SIaybix The issue is true ownership. If you truly believe physical is issue cause you use digital ingnores the biggest issues. Sony games offline you can’t use the game if it hasn’t been verified recently for the digital license. You lose your account game is gone. You suspend your license is temporarily suspended so you can’t verify the digital license to play Physical you own the actual digital key with the information of the game data. That ownership keeps longevity in your collection. Sony has stolen tittles out of people’s accounts games and movies and says no refunds. You pay to rent not own digitally. They explain it to your face in terms of service. You are not entitled to a refund cause you bought digitally. They will control the price instead of You as an owner being able to buy secondhand market deals. Now you will probably say that PSN store has deals. To that the deals are not as low as you get on eBay and other stores majority of the time. You can’t also re sell it your self or give to a friend. Keep in mind playstion made a whole YouTube video in 2014 agreeing to this and how to own and truly share BTW it’s still on their YouTube. It’s fine if you don’t care about owning your games but for me and others we like to own the product for the future.

Time to Go (@grace_za) reportedDue to a family crisis where someone threw a ThinkPad that wasn't theirs, I was pressed into service to try to fix it ordering cheap parts via Ebay. The screen was expensive thing. All the Ebay sellers wanted 100s.

Dylan Powers (@Knuckle_HeadDP) reported@eBay is there a current issue with sending offers to buyers? I keep trying to send an offer and I keep getting an error message to try again later

Skye (@Pretty_Poisn) reportedI was nosing through ebay and my throne wishlist to make sure that all of my items on my throne are still available. Cool news is that one of the items went down in price. Bad news. For some reason i can’t change the price or shipping cost(which is higher than necessary by default for some reason) and it doesn’t appear to auto update? And it already has some funding? So idk if i can fix it or not. But lil figs like $25.50 shipped now and throne thinks it’s $30 w $8 shipping so it’s listed at almost twice its actual cost rn😭

Michael (@LazySwimCoach) reported@Eriball22 My God, the sheepish Sunday night walk down the stairs to say, "I think I might have something in my backpack that I forgot." There is NO reason to force me to relive that in order to open my eBay account.

Stinky (@stinkywinkle) reported@MarioBrothBlog Man I remember when I was a kid I played my cousin $10 for his game boy camera. He said he’d bring it next time he visited, but it was a full year later and he’d forgotten. My heart was broken. Don’t know why I didn’t just get one off of eBay, I think it was 2003 or 4.

Alfonso Jimenez (@alfonsojimp) reported@askebay along with the shipping refund issue I was told I can’t ship the item at all since I am not a commercial entity yet ebay allowed me to list it. What do I do now since item will go unfulfilled and ebay wants me to pay back part of the refund yet ebay made the mistake here

domoshi (@heydomoshi) reportedWith GameStop's $2B share buyback authorization, the timing of what comes next is critical. Anything can happen, but here are some thoughts that came up while I was on the toilet this morning. I believe GameStop would start buybacks prior to a tender offer for eBay, since SEC rules prohibit a company from buying shares once a tender offer is announced (unless a private sale contract was already signed before the announcement). As the buyback shrinks the float, it puts upward pressure on the stock price. Once the stock rips past the warrant's $32 strike price, those warrants get exercised and GameStop raises nearly $2B in cash. ADDITIONALLY, they also have authorized shares ready to issue directly into the higher prices to raise a CRAPLOAD more cash. Spend a fraction of cash at the bottom to reduce the float, and raise exponential cash at the top by selling into the highs. Then the math can math. TLDR: GameStop $GME $EBAY

DevsFan1974 (@skunis1) reported@CardPurchaser So I decided to jump in to make a rainbow. I am still high on JDom and right now and trying to put together his 2025 Pristine encased autos. Starting slow and probably going to be hard to find the /5 and 1/1. Can't find green /150 or purple /99 ones on eBay.

Zack Trunzo (@zacktrunzo) reported@eBay @eBayCanada 2/4 I sent eBay: ✅ Signature-confirmed delivery ✅ Messages from the buyer confirming they received it ✅ Proof I tried resolving the issue ✅ Evidence the camera worked before shipping Despite all of that, eBay still ruled against me.

John Wills (@johndotwills) reported@shriverist @ScottGoetz_ Charity shops are basically moral storage for the **** that people cannot eBay as it’s not worth enough, but feel bad about throwing away. Every single one could shut down and no-one would be worse off. No one needs Peter Kay DVDs or dead people’s M&S summer shirts.

World Solution (@Adukegeorge) reportedWalk down a street in this abroad, people leave things outside you can easily pick up and use. Go to ebay, alot of free things with little fixes required or no damage you can use. Go to the second hand shops, good stuff for good price. We dont really do that where I come from. And even if you start it, ojukokoro and Anya ukwu will not let it flourish.

Jack of Many Spades (@LoganView64206) reported@MoleculesGoHard However, the DEA has a policy of going after anyone selling it to individuals and finding some reason to charge them. It was selling by the liter on Ebay and Amazon until like 2015 when they cracked down Customs seizes it if bought from overseas and just doesn't provide a reason

Midlife Crysis | Retro Gaming (@MidlifeCrysis_) reported@MoonPieDreams @FoxyRed2025 Not at all, I think you have interpreted it wrong. I don’t throw money at eBay but that’s up to you really if that’s what you generally take from my posts I’m not really going to try and change your mind as it’s fairly irrelevant to me. I know my passion for gaming, been doing it since I was around 7 and I’m in my 40s now. Somebody unhappy with my gaming videos isn’t really going to bother me too much. I certainly don’t gain followers from those posts, they generally don’t even do that well with views. If I cared about that then there is more cost effective ways of gaining followers but what I have gained is some decent mates on here. Some I’ve added to PSN, some I’ve helped with orders they were having delivery issues with and others through the purchase of a console and getting it working. If I was only interested in followers rather than contributing and supporting others in the community then I wouldn’t bother.

John Smith (@JohnSmith9fx1) reported@Tony_Denaro Genuine question. If you know their proposal passed to dilute a ton of shares to buy eBay why would you buy shares now and not when they dilute and the price goes down?

TH MOTOR (@Tomorihezekiah) reported@DBankrichards Import has its own pros and cons The biggest disadvantage of imported cars in UK market apart from several other things is 1. Available of right part 2. Getting the car insured So if your imported car develop a problem which is normal for all used cars, when you drive into Lexus in uk to get the part, they won’t have and they cannot ride it for you And sadly you will not get parts on eBay. Even to change windscreen (general glass will not have glass for you) The second issue I know a car that’s been on sale for over 12 months now, not because it wasn’t sold. Different buyer came, made payment but they are unable to get the car insured, so they return it. And the insurance also tends to charge higher premiums for no reason on imported cars.

GME BITCOIN (@gme_bitcoin) reported@evan12286 @ryancohen Weak. Naked shorting have been real problems before, but claiming every GME offering is a secret prime broker bailout with zero hard evidence is cope. Company raised cash,built a fortress, now hunting eBay. Thats the execution.If you want real change, demand better enforcement.

bad robot ventures (@foxenflask) reportedMid-way through last year, somebody won an auction for a stapler from $GME that was listed on eBay, and it made national news. There was a charity component to that auction and a further donation from the winner, that was super cool and made the whole thing super wholesome. I believe it was the first official listing from GameStop's then-new eBay account, which is cool to think about in retrospect. But then, that person and his team, almost immediately, started using this recognition and reach to promote something called GameStop on Ethereum, a shitcoin that has absolutely nothing to do with GameStop. A bunch of influencers from the community helped him, and he even had big names with 1M+ followers talking about how "cool" it was that this guy was buying up this shitcoin that is backed by absolutely nothing, because it had limited supply. A lot of poeple bought in, both to the shitcoin and the hype. They used GameStop's nationwide and social-wide recognition to promote their agenda of buying this shitcoin. I raised alarm bells and even messaged the person directly, as well as some of his friends and associates saying how wrong it was that they were using the GameStop cash tag to promote this crap without clarifying that it had nothing to do with GameStop and it was a really bad look, not just for the person doing this, but for GameStop as well to be associated with this shitcoin. That is already a wide-ranging problems on many crypto platforms, and actions like this from people that know better makes this problem worse. They even had a physical event that they claimed was GameStop sponsored at first, but then GameStop had them remove their logo and any mentions of official sponsorship from GameStop from their event page. Well, a picture is worth a thousand words. Maybe in this case a picture is worth millions of dollars. Not cool. I have all of that person and his teams shenanigans blocked, but please beware of crypto scams associating themselves with GameStop. One thing I hope that comes from the Clarity act is more enforcement, and some harsh criminal repercussions for defrauding the general public. If they make an example of a few, everyone else will fall in line and take their scams elsewhere.
