    @premiercards_2 @eBay As someone new to the hobby, I'm curious: why is this ebay's issue and not the seller? Was this authenticity guaranteed?

    @eBay Please look into this user. I have sent in a report but since this user has been known to talk to underage people online, this is kind of an issue that needs to be dealt with asap

    @phatjer300 @CardPurchaser @eBay I didn't see minor issues. I'm not a grader.

    @IGN I got ahead of this issue last year. I bought an old Kindle Keyboard off Ebay and used it to rip my books to epub in Calibre. Kindle Keyboard is one of the few remaining Kindles that can connect to the Amazon store and uses the older version of Amazon's DRM, which is easily broken. My wife and I are going to move to Kobo readers so we can use DRM free books.

    This woman is a rip off. On her site she had buy 2 get 1 free & I bought 7 items but didn't receive my free packets. When I asked her about it she took the but 2 get 1 free down off the site. Her name is ladybu9 on ebay. So remember her name, she's a rip off.

    @himeseul true story: we had a huge box of DVDs of mysterious skin in my basement in philly b/c we worked for TLA, which could not distribute them b/c of some kind of copy write issue, so we sold them on ebay ... no comment on the aliens stuff

    @s_michaelsteele @ThrillaRilla369 Buy the movie outright on Blu-ray/DVD (cheap used on eBay) or digital ownership via iTunes/Amazon. No more surprise rentals, and you keep it forever. Streaming is built for subscriptions + upsells—ownership beats the game. Blockbuster nostalgia is fun, but this fixes the root issue.

    @Blake5874 @eBay @CardPurchaser Just some advice, long time ebay seller here. If you suspect any minor issues at all, list as excellent. I always put in the listing any major issues. I had no idea ebay did this though....interesting. Mint/near mint has apparently transformed into perfect or you get dinged

    @TheLazyArtist67 @NovineLeaks I hope Ebay also does something too bc if this does get take down, he might go back there

    @imaysellit The listing fee is the smaller problem. eBay: 11.5% FVF plus $0.40 per order. On a $50 part that is $6.65 to the platform before ops. Add dimensional weight billing and return freight on heavy items. The order side bites harder than the listing side at volume.

    Horrible ebay seller said that well I got it cheap ( because no one bid against me at auction and she set the price to low- so her sending a bird whistle with broken wings was ok)

    @BourbonInvestm2 I “sell similar” every 2 weeks. Not an issue for the last 3 years on eBay.

  • renoipgp
    Roman Pioneer (@renoipgp) reported

    @BourbonInvestm2 @natsturner @eBay I appreciate your perspective as an honest seller, but the system is absolutely broken for preventing systematic fraud. I just tested the checkout process myself with a P.O. Box. The 'Authenticity Guarantee' badge still shows up. eBay gives zero warning that the item will bypass authentication. That is incredibly deceptive to buyers who think they are protected. Second, there are no consequences. This seller has had items fail authentication before, has received multiple reports for fraud, yet he is still not banned and continues to list hundreds of counterfeits. eBay just quietly refunds the buyer, returns the fake to the scammer, and lets him try again. They are protecting their profit margins instead of the community. PSA and eBay need to share data to permanently ban accounts systematically submitting fakes. And of course, we can't completely rule out the possibility that this was simply a massive error and the fake card actually passed the PSA inspection.

    @VandelayBreaks @CardPurchaser @eBay Happens every time. A piece of painters tape prevents this issue.

  • Keystone80435

    @nremarkableguy @Notjulio you;re right. I thought I was king **** but just a degen. I had a deal with the Clemson Hallmark shop to give me 1st grab on all new beanies. Would buy those bears for $12 and sell them on eBay for $200. And when I was always down to my last $$$, the station on College Ave had a machine that always paid after hours.

  • markymark740338

    @Ebay is holding funds until 3 days after delivery and says once you show a pattern of sales it will revert to payouts roughly a day after an item sells. The problem is it does not revert.....This is fraudulent and a potential class action lawsuit. #ebayseller

    Garrett (@chisox2024) reported

    @premiercards_2 @extralefty @eBay I get your frustration, but why does it take a card shop or full time seller for it to be reposted and retweeted. You wanna cry about it then be like the rest of us and get cucked when a bad deal goes down instead of stomping your feet and expecting a handout from society.

    @casey_Payne23 Been dealing on eBay as buyer/seller since 2006. Never any issues

  • chuybaca
    Chuy Baca (@chuybaca) reported

    @GMC_Capital @eBay @CardPurchaser Since ebay is connected with PSA, and probably other grading companies, they should force sellers to upload/scan the unique code on the graded cards to prevent the same card from being reused. Would be a sime fix

  • bpfeiff24
    Ben Pfeiffer (@bpfeiff24) reported

    This was part of a purchase of multiple books. That was over $15, so it appears the issue is item value. I can eat the cost, that’s not the issue. It’s that they sent me an item that didn’t match the description and there’s no way to fix the issue. eBay never has this issue

    @KabutoKing_ eBay doesn’t give af they sit back and collect customer service is terrible too for sellers

    Please @LogitechG bring back the G600, people are selling it for $300 on ebay, there's clearly a market of people who want this mouse back. My mouse click is finally dying and sadly I've got to move on to something else unless I can fix it.

    @premiercards_2 @eBay It’s such a terrible “service” they’re offering - just put EVERY order at risk.

    @eBay take 10 minutes to listen to people and fix this nonsense. Every. Single. Time. They arrive like this.

    @fairlyoddfairy Ebay selling. Im also heavily propped up by my husband. Idk what i would do otherwise bc all the jobs i had caused burnout and/or there were social problems. It wasnt about the work itself, it was about the ppl there. So i decided to do something that involves minimal interaction

    @glimmerfr @MrMajikku @TomodachiPlaza it is but the console being a license is still a massive let down Imagine you are buing a delisted game from ebay Then you put it in your switch 2 and its fine Whats not fine is that the owner copied the files to a mig switch So when you use your game itll brick the switch 2

    @bwsleigha Yea I’ve got so many clothes and shoes I used to sell mine regularly but stopped so they piled up and I know vinted is good for that but I also wanna cut down my cd and vinyl collection and wonder if maybe eBay or another platform is better for selling those?😭
