Forever (@SpyTactics) reportedi did the design research and it was difficult, so I did something in the day, and I will do that other thing i was going to do soon also. When the ebay scam is delivered, if it is, I can try to resolve that, and that is basically the only issue of the month now?
-
I trade negative RR (@TradeNegative) reported@Cex why ******** does your Bristol branch sell 3070’s for £300+ when you can buy em on eBay for £200 no problems? Almost everything you sell has a ridiculous mark up. 500gb nvme for £90 are you tripping?
-
Chris Goldie (@Omega_Prism) reported@eBay Part 2: This lack of transparency is unacceptable. I’m willing to comply with any policy, but I can’t fix something when no one will tell me what went wrong. The process has been frustrating, inconsistent, and honestly unfair. I’m asking for a clear explanation.

Reseller Rowe (@resellerrowe) reportedThe good and the bad…today we sold a pair of Hunter Boots to a customer on eBay (good) The problem? We don’t know where they are (bad) The solution…I bought another pair from a different eBay seller and let the customer know we messed up. They will get shipped to me and then forwarded to the customer. It’s not perfect but it shows we care. Tomorrow we are doing a eBay listing inventory to make sure this doesn’t happen again. What would you have done?

Paul Joshua Urriza (@Bigbrourriza) reported@ValtSaber Oh I never used eBay you know my account got taken down for some reason I don't why when I sign up
-
SugaHigh (@suga_high93) reported@lukeclarckson A little less than $50 aud exc shipping, around 18cm tall, and from a shop i got used items before and had no issues. The cheapest i can find her anywhere else is $129 aud exc shipping, and that's a no box, unsure if extra hands are included ebay listing.
-
Peanut (@JuggaloPeanut) reported@Royals_Cards One thing that has pushed me to leave ALOT more neutral feedback as been eBays new automated system. I dont leave negative feedback if it's a minor issues. Now I leave neutral feedback. I will not allow eBay to automatically leave a positive feedback.
-
dove (@pomniwonderland) reportedalso maybe im too woke but toy temple reselling the jax pomni labubu for $500-$600 on ebay over 9 times now is really weird behaviour if they actually are an official glitch partner like they say they are #sorry

Liz Morton ~ Value Added Resource (@ValueAddedRS) reported@RDKLInc @southscanner @eBay With USPS having both zone & zip code rate variances, there tends to be a wide spread in the estimates eBay displays to sellers when creating the listing. Unfortunately, I don't think there's really much eBay can do about that because there's simply no way to know where the eventual buyer will be located. I suspect that human nature being what it is, sellers often focus more on the lower end of the displayed ranges if they pay much attention at all. Many sellers also likely just go with the default suggested in the listing form & that's where I think eBay could do something to help with this issue. I can see how for a newer or less experienced seller, it wouldn't be obvious to click the 3 dots or add additional services to see other options & see if there's another one that offers a better rate to buyers. This is from the web listing form & it's even less intuitive in the app, imo.

David Peck (@dpeck100) reported@cardofdreams I bought this from eBay years ago. 36 card display case that says UV protected. Have six full. Used to have on the wall but took down for safety reasons. They sit on the floor against a wall and nice to be able to access whenever.
-
♡ vanilly ଘ( ᴗ͈ ᴗ͈)ഒ (@manglecwutexoxo) reportednot sure if this is allowed here (will take down if not) but considering all the toy items have skyrocketed and some are going down but posey and avrilla are still high, is it worth buying the codes off ebay? i currently have 1.2mil but it's gonna take forever to farm the rest...
-
C H I N A 🍓 (@thesportychi) reported@quinnysoda It’s OK it happens. I’m pretty sure if I do decide to get it down the line I can find it on eBay.
-
Leo (@Leo_R_UK) reported@Samaytwt Look you can buy a decent second hand i5 i7 server put Linux on it with 32gb or more for less than £200 all you need to do is terminal into that to code from and you can do that from a 2012 MacBook Air for £60 from eBay. Coding it 2026 shouldn’t be expensive!

Ruze (@x_Ruze) reported@flyinfalkin No problem I just listed one today on eBay lolol

BP (@everyonebpup) reportedsounds great on paper, but there's a detail: to get your game into the kids catalog, developers must now pay $5/month for roblox plus, pass id verification and enable 2fa. Roblox plus launches april 30. The kids system launches in june, subscription revenue flows first, child safety comes second. and the whole thing runs on facial age estimation that was publicly broken within days of launch. Kids drew wrinkles on their faces and got flagged as 21+. Someone showed a photo of kurt cobain and passed. parents scanned their own faces to unlock chat for their children, accidentally placing minors into the adult tier with full access to adult strangers. Age-verified child accounts showed up on ebay for $5. by q3 2025, users 13 and older made up 2/3 of roblox's 151 million daily players. This was never a kids platform in the way they marketed it. Split is roblox catching up to what the data already showed. meanwhile, 146 families are suing in consolidated federal litigation. state ags are lining up. tennessee's attorney general called roblox "the digital equivalent of a creepy cargo van at the edge of a playground" platform had years to build these walls. It took 146 lawsuits and a biometric pr crisis to make them move.

TheCollectorsWard (@CaCardBreaks) reported@GabeyCardStacks It’s not right. What kills me is how eBay can fix this and they don’t. Also it’s BS that eBay takes full 13% on shipping fees instead of just the 3% processing fee

Grok (@grok) reported@TheDumbTechGuy Fact check on the quoted post: Node.js launched in 2009. PayPal (founded 1998) migrated many web apps to it from Java around 2013 and still uses it heavily today. Netflix uses it for API gateways/BFF layers (core backend is mostly Java). LinkedIn used it for mobile servers. Uber was an early adopter for dispatch/marketplace but has shifted much to Go/Java. Walmart rebuilt its site with it. eBay built Node apps. Trello’s server is Node-based. Medium’s main app servers run on it. The list is directionally right—Node.js powers big opportunities—but “built with” often means parts of the stack, not the whole thing. It’s a solid, scalable choice.

X-R-P-1983☆ (@XRPee1983) reported@Hemigod85 Still waiting on it. Shipper on Ebay is slow AF lol

Chris Goldie (@Omega_Prism) reported@eBay Part 1: My account was permanently suspended after what appears to be my first ever warning, and your support team has completely refused to explain why. I’ve contacted support multiple times and keep getting generic responses with no actual reason or path to fix.

♻️Λ𝙉𝙏𝙃⓪𝙉▽♻️ (@Daeyewanaknow) reported@LikeToBeBossy I buy physical too off eBay with voucher codes.. but i seldom get PS essential, wait till it runs down and then buy Extra or Premium at a discount.
-
El Bucci (@bigbucciband) reported@JayBobSons Brother I am a top rated eBay seller, I’ve had 100s of people with 0 feedback buy and I’ve had no problems. Plenty times I sold slabs and seen them being posted by a celebrity and more. Scared money don’t make no money, it’s just facts.

N. Joy (@NancyJoys) reported@eBay Is it true the eBay lives have been messing with the algorithm & reducing sales for sellers? Everyone complaining slow sales.
-
Brian Kraus (@NHbskraus) reported@CardPurchaser and community I have a small problem. I bought a card on eBay that was shipped via eBay standard (with the ESU number) tracking says it was delivered but o never received the card. eBay denied my claim because it was “delivered “. I can’t file claim on USPS.

CD² (@Cryptic_Dollar) reported@premiercards_2 I’ve never promoted my listings and I don’t seem to have any issues on views. I’ve thought about it but never tried it don’t see the point when my cards normally sale within a couple days of listening. I am a eBay OG though and have been on there for years and don’t know matters
-
Valor フォッコ (@valor_fen34) reported@PG_rayC @JustJoshTho @TCGplayer This is not just a problem on tcgplayer. I’ve seen this happen on Amazon and EBay for cards too. I’m surprised even with tracking and how things are formatted today, scams and reports like these still occur.
-
Build With Ryan (@Build_with_Ryan) reported@pmitu I disagree. I spoke to several eBay resellers about the issues they were having. Built Privy - an eBay product intelligence tool that solved those problems. But I’m struggling to get active users!

Ronald Robson (@RRobson90195) reportedI was scammed on your site buying memory out of 269 dollars. The person used a false tracking number sent to someone else's address and name according to UPS. I contacted eBay and they told me it shows delivered so they said I got it. I feel let down.
