  Back when I was obsessed with Dutch I switched my entire phone language to Dutch and then when I got sick of it I switched back to English but every so often it just creeps back in without my consent. Some apps (notably eBay) are fully in Dutch and I can’t fix it.

  @amazon Why do you allow companies to use a Shipping Company that is known for Scamming Associations? Jcex❓Effectively tracking JCEX shipments is generally not possible, as many Redditors report JCEX tracking to be unreliable and often associated with scams. The consensus among users is that JCEX is frequently used by fraudulent sellers, leading to fake tracking updates, packages marked as delivered but never received, and significant difficulty in getting accurate information or resolving issues. Common Issues with JCEX Tracking •False Delivery Notifications: Many users report that their JCEX tracking updates show the package as "delivered" when it has not arrived, or even shows delivery to a completely different location. "Same thing happened to me, it claimed it was delivered but it never arrived it’s a total scam ask for a refund"
. •Irregular and Suspicious Updates: Tracking information often appears to be fabricated, with updates occurring at unusual intervals (e.g., every three days) or showing identical timestamps for different packages supposedly going to different locations. "And why the tracking updates are so weird on every 3 days?"
. •Lack of Detailed Information: The tracking often provides minimal useful information, making it impossible to determine the package's actual whereabouts or the local carrier responsible for final delivery. "no local forwarding number there is absolutely no information i cant even see who has my package"
. Difficulty in Resolving Issues •Unresponsive Customer Service: Redditors frequently mention that JCEX is difficult or impossible to contact directly for support. "I also tried calling their contact number but the number isn’t registered or working."
. •Seller Involvement in Scams: Many instances suggest that sellers intentionally use JCEX with fraudulent intentions, relying on the unreliable tracking to string buyers along until buyer protection periods expire. "JCEX is currently being used by scammers, a seller (scammer) asked for more money to "release" this package that shows as delivered but of course was never delivered"
. •Reliance on Marketplace Refunds: The most common resolution for unreceived items shipped via JCEX is to seek a refund from the marketplace (e.g., eBay, Amazon, Walmart) where the purchase was made. "I never got it but I was able to get my money back from eBay because I also used PayPal to pay for my order"
. Recommendations for Buyers •Exercise Extreme Caution: Be very wary of purchases that indicate shipping via JCEX, especially from unfamiliar or newly established sellers. "Use extreme cautious with JCEX tracking via online marketplace merchants"
. •Monitor Buyer Protection Timelines: If a purchase is shipped via JCEX, keep a close eye on the refund and return policies of the marketplace to ensure you can file a claim if the package doesn't arrive. "I contacted eBay asking them to extend the product guarantee based on what the seller had said, eBay denied me. I then appealed and got my refund, as the eBay rep said in their message that it does show as delivered and that they could see it was still in transit."
. •Consider Alternative Shipping: If possible, choose sellers who use reputable shipping carriers with transparent and reliable tracking. "If it is JCEX it is fraud."

  @sneedweb I don’t understand why you’re still posting about eBay. The stock is down 20% since the offer. He doesn’t have anywhere near the cash or equity to finance this deal. The most cash he could get from the combined cashflow is like $7-8b, max. You’re watching this like it’s a damn tennis match. If eBay agreed today, he couldn’t do it, unless they gave him half the company. It’s a bluff, buddy. Stop talking about it. It’s not happening.

  @dear_angel_lacy @imtrashdva @soitgoeslexi I think it’s really ******* annoying to triple down on something like this when someone who acc spent their money on the cd has a review on it. This person got in the queue and bought something. They’re allowed to return it/be dissapointed in it and not sell it on eBay

  Before I sell the camera I have to download all the photos off the SD cards. Apparently I used it for more than eBay. But I can't do it. I don't know which one of my disorders is causing it but I can't figure out how to transfer them or even where to transfer them to. That scares me. I used to easily be able to do that. My old PC is slow but still works.

  @MarcoFoster_ @KyleKulinski Communists want to tear down society. Under communism, Tesla would be destroyed. No more Amazon, Google, Apple, Intel, Nvidia, Disney, Netflix, Ebay, no more airlines, no trains, no defense companies. No getting astronauts to the ISS as only Space X can do. Communists are evil.

  @HeroAssange 1. Dump eBay 2. Buyback GME with eBay proceeds 3. Buy 14.9% of eBay when it dip hard 4. Reveal other key players who now also hold sizeable positions in eBay 5. GME = Up // eBay = Down // Acquisition is much cheaper for lower share price

  From 2019 onwards, $EBAY has a pretty impressive rap sheet: - 2019: Execs ordered a stalking campaign against blogger couple the Steiners. Sent live bugs, a pig mask, and a funeral wreath to their home. GPS tracked their car. CEO Wenig ("take her down") walked with $57M severance. Never charged. - 2022: 7 employees convicted. Ringleader Jim Baugh sentenced to 57 months in federal prison. - 2023: DOJ sues eBay for selling 343K emissions defeat devices and illegal pesticides. Potential $1.9B exposure. - 2024: eBay pays $3M criminal fine (statutory max) to DOJ for the stalking. Same month, pays $59M for facilitating illegal pill press sales. - 2026: Steiner civil suit ($466M punitive ask) settled, then collapsed. Trial set for Jan 2027. Multiple DOJ actions. 7 convictions. Billions in exposure. A decade of self-inflicted chaos. Utter waste of shareholder capital, while the business and the margins has become stagnant at best and way behind at worst. Is this board and CEO really the best to run this iconic American brand?

  @staypredictable Bonds are suppressing the price. Plus the 2.5 billion shares. Once buyback kicks in and big money comes on board price will run. Also shorts will pull the price down to make it harder to acquire eBay. But, time and patience always wins.

  @RockSol1d_ Sorry to hear that. I had this exact problem recently. If you’re lucky you can buy/swap an individual solenoid. If not you might need to buy the whole module. Check out aftermarket parts on eBay. They’re very reasonable, and either swap it yourself or get the mechanic to do the install.

  A lot of new people here, this one’s for you. 🚨How to stop losing money to eBay return scammers. They buy your clean, working item… then ship back a broken piece of junk & demand a full refund. I recently learned this $7.49 trick & it’s an absolute game changer: Grab a cheap UV security pen (the exact one I use from amazon is in the photo). Before you ship, write a unique personal code or mark in a hidden spot on the item. It’s completely invisible to the naked eye, but lights up under any blacklight. When the return comes back, just shine the light. No matching mark? That’s not your original item. Upload the before/after UV photos in your eBay case and watch your win rate skyrocket. 🚀 Pro tip: Make the code truly unique, your own handwriting style, a random symbol only you make. Something scammers can’t duplicate even if they know the method. Resellers: add this to your process TODAY. It will save you hundreds (or thousands) in the long run. Who’s trying this? Let me know in the comments if you’re adding UV marking to your process. Also, would love to hear your best return scam stories below! Happy selling! Let's grow!

  We can help you get the screen replacement from Amazon or eBay and ship to Nigeria. Then you get a technician to fix it for you when it gets here. Done that for a lot of our customers and it worked.

  I'm an electrical contractor. So maybe I can speak here a little. Very often pricing is a mafia structure between very few vendors. Here in Florida, lighting is ridiculous. For the same build-out, I will get a $23k lighting quote as "alternatives to spec" that are legit the same products, just a different brand, and the spec'ed lights will get quoted at $64k. Now for your breaker. I personally will not buy a breaker from Amazon or eBay. This is personal. There's likely no issue, but I will pay 3x more through my vendors due to relationships with them, trust with them, certain guarantees through them. Yes, this will get passed onto the customer, but generally 3 phase bigger breakers like this control things that cost money each time they're shut down or require scheduling to shut down. Imagine if I send an employee into a... Grocery store..or something overnight since they can't shut down during the day. My Amazon/eBay breaker fails during this overnight shut down. Now I'm just the cheap *** contractor trusting Amazon and eBay to save a couple hundred $, that now costed me thousands and will require another shut down, logistics etc etc. It sucks, sorry you had to deal with this. My hyperbolic story isn't always true, but I've ran into your breaker price range a few times and usually.. it's the electrical wholesale mafia setting the price because they know we'll pay for it.

  Ebay seller that combine S1/S2/Update (inserts) (parallels) in drop down menus are so easy to avoid when searching players... Often times the card(s) (you) are after have been sold but the search still picks up the listing... I get why sellers do it, but as a buyer, it's easy to move on to an individual listing...
