eBay Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • therealdavewade Dave Wade (@therealdavewade) reported

    @savvycards @CardPurchaser eBay will strike him down with the vengeance of a scorned wife if they catch wind

  • OUnderfolder OverUnderfolder (@OUnderfolder) reported

    @fallen_up54 @Dchibbles1 @CNN So how do you know which are the right people to monitor? And sure the government has shut down web services based on crimes, I think something like Craigslist was shut down because of prostitution. Does that give the government the right to shut down Craigslist or eBay?

    On the one hand, it's cool that more people are interested in repairing things because it prevents a lot of waste. On the other, it's shite because it means people have an inflated sense of what their old broken tat is worth on eBay.

  • hyp3rblue J-Town (@hyp3rblue) reported

    @_sn0wX Same here. I'm sure there are other games that are still out of control, but I saw most of these listing on ebay were around 60. Fingers crossed things go back down.

  • Cat_book_tea Asha - A Cat, A Book, And A Cup Of Tea (@Cat_book_tea) reported

    @conniereads_ There’s a couple of copies on ebay for £16! It’s hard to track down otherwise but I think it’s going to be very much our cup of tea!

  • seth47er Seth_Tek (@seth47er) reported

    @caderaspindrift Piracy is a lost "sale" Not "sale's". I've bought plenty of things I've pinched for free in the past and the Trove is a place where you can get games lost to licencing issues like WHFR 3rd or that one middle earth game with out paying ebay or amzon resellers.

  • wittydawnuk Dawn Witt (@wittydawnuk) reported

    eBay sales are so low right now , Used to sell on old stock/destash fabric for years but now no @Ebay £1 max fees offers anymore, dropping PayPal to collect bank details instead ? ( some buyers hate that ). Non / slow payers. Won’t be resisting my stock again I think .

  • JRBulman Shirts Shirts Shirts (@JRBulman) reported

    @EmiBanciu It's also very hard to actually challenge anything on ebay. I've been accused of listing a counterfeit item a number of times. When I got in touch to say it was a genuine item I got told that some teams don't like their shirts being resold on ebay so object & they get taken down.

  • chakazt chakaz (@chakazt) reported

    @daddyhope Body cameras to retransmit events to a central server for collation. Very affordable ones on eBay/Amazon, cheap for the cause.

  • missclare Clare (@missclare) reported

    @celebrityhottub I even went a step further: I harvested the still-good parts from the broken part and put them on eBay!

  • RailwayHoss Railway Hoss (@RailwayHoss) reported

    Now probably was not the best time to return given that there is currently a lot of issues with malicious characters ongoing but I'd rather these things be passed onto members of this community rather than feed into the awful market manipulation going on with sites like eBay.

  • DeadlyfromAbove DeadlyfromAbove (@DeadlyfromAbove) reported

    @Mookie23_ @CardPurchaser Could have been one of those "EBay internal bidding error's" again. LoL

  • ChrisHammond_ha ha-creative (@ChrisHammond_ha) reported

    @AskeBay The buyer says he didn’t but I only have his word for it. However, why would he leave + feedback if he had a problem? All I got was an ebay message telling me a dispute was opened against me as ‘buyer didn’t recognise transaction’. Your MP team didn’t even investigate.

  • jl_hfl Joseph Lord (@jl_hfl) reported

    @marinbenc @eBay I don’t think so. At least if they use the Google SDK for sign in then Google get to track you by their ID and link your activity to that in other apps. I’ve implemented the ATT question for Facebook/Google Sign in for a couple of the apps I work on.

  • JLeinber88 J J (@JLeinber88) reported

    @funkygreens @DanR_22 @CardPurchaser If untrue this means eBay is part of the problem and conspiring

  • TeeQ100 🙈 (@TeeQ100) reported

    @StopFundingHate @AskeBay Hi eBay. If you bow down to the hate filled “stop finding hate” campaign then myself and many others will find other ways to buy and sell our goods.

  • VXO ON⦅⩑⦆AIR Tom, KG4CYX 📡 BLM 𓅭𓅰𓆏 (@VXO) reported

    @0x47DF @Dexruus My old boss has a Rigol DSA815-TG that he's quite fond of. If 1.5 ghz is ok for your uses, that might actually cost less than the eBay used prices on all the half-broken crap

  • JGK_1 Just J. Kohl (@JGK_1) reported

    @Ebay not having a way to talk to an actual human being about a transaction/payment issue is one of the most frustrating things of all time. @AskeBay

  • MangledPayments eBay's new bank account requirement is ruinous! (@MangledPayments) reported

    @wittydawnuk It’s not just terrible for sellers, it’s terrible for eBay. So much lost trade!

  • anonameska Good Ash 🙀 Bad Ash (@anonameska) reported

    You can no longer contact eBay either to resolve issues. The way I see it, the buyer knew that a Size Issue was the way to get a refund from a seller that doesn’t accept returns. They never respond or send the item back and the seller is finally debited.

  • MgaDthInfinity Retro Choco Mk. II (@MgaDthInfinity) reported

    Like please, inform me Who exactly is loosing money when I pirate The Adventures of Scrimblo Bimblo for the Nokiacube (which are all broken unless you get some guy named dave to fix it for you) which has been out of print for 30 years and resells on ebay for $2 billion?

  • MangledPayments eBay's new bank account requirement is ruinous! (@MangledPayments) reported

    @wittydawnuk Yeah it’s ****. eBay used to be good, now it’s terrible

  • chicago_grow IceVein Crypto (@chicago_grow) reported

    How come everybody on @Poshmarkapp are a bunch of HATERS?! I listed a few items under-price based on past ebay sold items. Than I get blasted saying “I am part of the problem” Y’all need to find better things to do with your lives. I am supporting myself, my wife and three kids

  • lolimanda_ amanda (@lolimanda_) reported

    I miss wholesome me on sniping tcg auctions on ebay and being excited to do my 3d printing sweatshop Now I'm just like aigjt who should I text all my problems to today AJDHSKDHKSDKD

  • jl_hfl Joseph Lord (@jl_hfl) reported

    @marinbenc @eBay Unless you verify in the Google T&C that they (a third party advertiser) do not record activity in your app then I think asking the ATT question is required if before you give them the information of the sign in that they can link to a user. Apple should be clearer though.

  • jamestplunkett James Plunkett (@jamestplunkett) reported

    Just spent an hour grappling with UPS and eBay. All very early 2000s: duplicative data entry, not optimised for mobile, fragmented backends showing through, proliferation of login IDs/passwords - yet didn't feel I had much alternative. (2/n)

  • jt_cardz JT Cards (@jt_cardz) reported

    Is it ever worth fighting a return request on eBay? Or do they always side with the buyer? Got a joke of a return request for a microscopic issue I don’t recall seeing when i had it so I don’t wanna accept unless I’ll lose for sure. @CardPurchaser

  • chrissieburgess Chrissie Burgess (@chrissieburgess) reported

    @Dickybeau @BowlerHatComms @DrewLawDesign Thank you Twitter folk, I had highest bid! (In a hotel, I slept on a mattress, the most comfortable ever. I’ve neck problems) I took note of the name and about £1500 retail. Looked on eBay - same model (good as new) I just got for £114.

  • anonameska Good Ash 🙀 Bad Ash (@anonameska) reported

    It’s a total scam and eBay no longer protects sellers. They disconnected their phone number, there is no way of even contacting them to resolve issues. I think I’m going to stop using them. I sell vintage clothes. Should I move to Poshmark?

  • MangledPayments eBay's new bank account requirement is ruinous! (@MangledPayments) reported

    @sarayaali_ It’s extremely slow and painfully now - I would rather stop using eBay then use #EbayManagedPayments Oh they’ve also raised their fees to 13% and added a 30p fee to each order, even if the buyer cancels!
