eBay Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • RDKLInc
    John Bumstead (@RDKLInc) reported

    The eBay "mass accidental shipping overpricing" event continues! Sellers accept incorrect default settings and unknowingly set USPS calculated shipping to $75-$200 for items that should ship for $20 via Fedex/UPS. None of these items are ever going to sell! Potentially millions of items. The damage caused is hard to calculate, but it's certainly severe. Yes, the shipping is technically correct for the incorrect size/weight that is a seller's default -- USPS is simply the wrong carrier for items of any size/weight, which they are unaware of. But instead of blaming thousands of sellers for getting the system wrong, how about eBay gets a clue and suggests an optimal shipping method? i.e. "Hey, before you proceed with that, UPS/Fedex would probably be a better option! And by the way, based on all the data we have on what you're selling, are you SURE it weights 50lb and is 20x20x24?" I mean, they are trusting AI in a million bizarre and inappropriate ways, so why are they afraid to use some intelligence to determine proper shipping? In the last 3 months, I have personally walked 50 sellers through switching their shipping to UPS/Fedex and correcting dimensions. But most will not listen and suspect that a helpful buyer is up to something. I only know all this because I am the odd person who is scouring eBay 3-5 hours a day. This is a big problem, and nobody even seems to be aware of it. Certainly eBay isn't. Either they don't know, or they don't care -- pick one.

    @erenfromtargets Lol funny as hell...sell it on ebay as an error. Some dummy millionaire might pay big for that black d*ck

    @RDKLInc Shipping on eBay is a big big problem. u are absolutely spot on. 1) Calc shipping is default setting. 2) they need to negotiate some kind of better rates. If you're shipping from a coast it's superrrr easy to get burned shipping to the other coast if you opt for free or fixed rt

    @Nesterp99 @OffDaHook35 Did eBay turn off Canada post labels permanently? I find sometimes they turn it off for certain amount of time then put it back on. Experienced a few issues on weekends.

    @GlitchedDrops Why you crying? You want more than one for the low low so you can triple the price on fb and ebay like a bum? If you are desperate for money, I have a solution that will help you and any other scalping bums out. Ready? Get a pen and paper to write this down. GET A JOB, LOSER.

    Sorry but £107 is too steep for a box of trading cards, the ones from series 3 can be found for like £30 a box on eBay if anyone wants that kinda fix 😭

    It appears ebay standard envelope is having issues right now and im not able to buy ESE labels. Is anyone else having the same problem?

    Anyone else having problems with EBay card scan? It just will not recognize the card today. I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled the app. @CardPurchaser. Need to list some more!

    @Roaringalpaca4 eBay overhang will negate any beat. Cohen talks and stock tanks so I hope he speaks. Earnings will be good but won’t matter. Gme is headed down that’s what they want. Nothing longs can do

    Anyone else having issues printing labels on eBay? I keep getting the ‘There was a problem processing your request on the carriers system. Please try again later’ error. @CardPurchaser

    𓆩𝙿𝚜𝚢𝚌𝚑𝚘𓆪 (@psychxbby) reported

    The last pic is from the same seller, from $30 cad to $50 is crazy. I’d recommend resellers on mercari japan using a proxy like buyee or zenmarket then you have to pay shipping after. Aliexpress & eBay also work if you check reviews. Problem is he’s very expensive due to demand

  • computertouch3r
    computer toucher (@computertouch3r) reported

    @RDKLInc Except one time for me it was way under what it really cost. I shipped a big 1U server - eBay said 30 ish dollars but USPS charged me close to a 100.

  • greenstoslopes
    Jlew (@greenstoslopes) reported

    Another day, another eBay buyer who wanted to cancel, I had already dropped this item, going to Authenticator. Sorry dude, this excuse was, well I had 2 offers out and I have now over paid. He was a bit nicer and offered to compensate me, sorry Not my problem chief. eBay is getting ridiculous.

    Coming off private so I can call out @eBay and their absolutely terrible customer service experience (or complete lack of customer service, I should say).

    @KatFromAlaska We have been looking for an old Bug to fix up a little bit. Found a few on eBay, just have to find the right one.

  • colum26

    In my view, many retail stores — both online and physical — are contributing to the same issue as eBay scalpers by selling products at excessive mark-ups far above the original retail price.

    @Farhanrj389 @eBay @Payoneer I got the same problem for like 3 months until I just gave up

  • himmyhapperson
    Himmy Happerson (@himmyhapperson) reported

    @M_oass Duh the fix is Wall St not eBay. They pay the board and the execs to slowly tank the company so they can both use it in their swaps basket and destroy it from within. This is why American business is hollow — we hate it, we don’t want to use it, and **** you for your corruption.

    @socrates2sox @Ride4Truth @overstretcc93 The safest thing for dental is the Versaflo PAPR hack for dental, or similar PAPR. Versaflo is pricey but there are cheaper PAPRs on eBay that can be used. Readimask nose hack is cheaper and more readily available, although there can be issues with donning and adhesion.

    $GME-OHHHHH now corporate X lawyers gotta earn overtime 😭 $eBay is hiring for “consumer narrative,” “reactive press management,” “cultural moments,” “collectibles,” “AI,” “eBay Live,” “enthusiast communities” all while Ryan Cohen publicly cooks the board in SEC-documented memes? Yeahhhh… regular auction site behavior my ***. 57.9M shares sold short. 68.8% off-exchange short volume. Insider selling everywhere. Stock is down -4.3% while $GME/ $XRT hold green into weakness. One side moving like a company protecting turf. Other side moving like somebody already knows attention became the real currency in 2026. Story is getting tighter. Tape is getting louder 👀

    @rustyshackmin @gmefan1684 @YoDooley Because anyone who invested when he became chairman of the board is down 60+%. Anyone who bought in when RK came back is underwater. Anyone who bought in when they announced ebay is down 20% in 2 weeks. I mean, is everyone losing money a good thing in your eyes or??

    Google Gemini put an ad on the side of at least one of the busses down here. Considering what happened with eBay that time, I am somewhat concerned.

  • renoipgp
    Roman Pioneer (@renoipgp) reported

    What I see is something very different: one seller operating a network of accounts, connected to the same scam pattern, including accounts registered in Kazakhstan and pushing the same fake autograph inventory. I reported all of them to eBay. Hopefully this network will be shut down soon.

    Is eBay stock down because the only people trading it are insiders? And they are selling as fast as they can?

    @DiligentDenizen Everyone using Grok and this platform contributes to the high demand of these datacenters. Same goes for Facebook, ChatGPT, Amazon, Uber, EBay, Netflix, Google and the rest. How about addressing the high demand issue first?

    @ruedaoj @ryancohen @eBay HE’S DOWN OVER 100M SINCE HE BOUGHT IT AT THE TOP AND YOU ARE LITERALLY CHEERING THAT HE RECOVERED 2M OUT OF THIS. There is NO ******* WAY you people are real. NO WAY.

    PeptideTrack (@PeptideTrackApp) reported

    @Jacquel24711412 @eBay i'd skip this one. it's just a product listing, no real hook to build off of. if there was even a claim about why it matters or what problem it solves, we could work with that. but pure promo? nothing to add that wouldn't sound like empty hype or a sales pitch

    @eBay enshittification is complete. Ordered x6 sz L clothing items. 4 new, 2 used. 1=a normal "Large". 4 GROTESQUELY FAR AWAY from L. CLEARLY manufacturing errors, sold as a "normal" L. Mass scale fraud. Will I spend 4hrs returning items? No, just won't ever shop on Ebay again.
