Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • SanMarcosGlass Anita Caudle (@SanMarcosGlass) reported

    @BarbaraTroluzoo Some of my pet things I've had to order off eBay or Amazon lately. It cost a little more to do it like that, but I didn't want Wren Rabbit to have digestive issues by switching food.

  • jaykadam13 Jay Kadam (@jaykadam13) reported

    @AskeBay That's exact what I'm trying to do. Update the old information. I will not create a New email address simply to login to eBay

  • CantoDota Canto 🛠 BRoss (@CantoDota) reported

    @AliceRoseAnew @JUNlPER Now I’ll have to deal with fake fans coming into the comic shop and buying up all the Lets Go Brandon back issues to flip on eBay…

  • Geoffre07012985 Geoffrey Hughes (@Geoffre07012985) reported

    @PopCultureDump Well I don't have anything you want. Or couldn't get just by going to ebay yourself lol. This ideology is so broken.

  • AskeBay Ask eBay (@AskeBay) reported

    @LukeDeanAVFC Not a reason to worry. This shouldn't cause a problem but if you end up with an unpaid record just let us know (we'll review communication through eBay confirming the transaction) and we'll take care of it. ~Mark Y

  • TheMedievalNerd Medieval Nerd (@TheMedievalNerd) reported

    @POStudios I finally decided to totally over pay a steam controller off Ebay, so I can sit my *** down in my couch. And replay old point & click titles. :P

  • ___polyethylene Ashley (@___polyethylene) reported

    @jakeriley The first season of Fox's Dark Angel, which someone had recorded on VHS and put on ebay. No idea why my grandmother let me do it and the quality was terrible.

  • KRcanondorf KRcanondorf ~ DAISALINA FANPERSON🌼🌠 (@KRcanondorf) reported

    @Aqua15_ SHE'S JUST SOOOO EXPENSIVE ON EBAY THAT'S THE PROBLEM 🗿 Cheapest I can find her rn is $70 CAD loose lmfao

  • karon Karon (@karon) reported

    @querlvox @tazary @smylie I got the first 45 issues of Hellblazer cheap on ebay in 96. My first Amazon order wasn't until 99. I think I ordered some computer parts in the late 90s too.

  • realcactussam Sam McCoy (@realcactussam) reported

    @NotDrDeath First Ebay i did was for when Wrestlecrap went down the first time and RD was auctioning off tapes that came with the site preserved on a CD, which was in 01 I think. But I'm pretty sure I got some stuff in the late 90s I just don't remember what.

  • stevejohnryan Saffron Whiskeybiscuit | 🇺🇦 (@stevejohnryan) reported

    @agoX Uuuuh I think I bought a guitar for 1 penny on eBay, then paid $35 shipping for a terrible kids-size guitar and a valuable life lesson

  • PapaDeRazon Papa De Razón (@PapaDeRazon) reported

    @BarneyFlames I'm old enough to remember buying and selling things on eBay with personal checks or USPS money orders before Billpoint and PayPal emerged on the scene. It was a slow and tedious process.

  • eseller365 eSeller365 (@eseller365) reported

    @ValueAddedRS @eBay WHI uses industry-standard ACES and PIES data which is provided by parts manufacturers and can vary greatly in quality and has nothing to do with eBay. Some of the product pages don't even use what is being provided by MFGs, that is more the issue here.

  • obi_dawn Dawn F as in (@obi_dawn) reported

    @valthonis Yikes! I had no idea they did that. I wasn’t aware of eBay yet, and it didn’t exist for at least part of my time there. But I would go and write down the books and check used bookstores mostly for books for lit classes.

  • CardPurchaser Card Purchaser (@CardPurchaser) reported

    @AlphaAntonAU @oliverzack2 He's joking because there was a few days when people with Chet cards on eBay had them taken down for using his likeness lol

  • j_drain J. Drain (@j_drain) reported

    @LostTurntable Mine was a NIN CD… I can’t remember which it was coz I got a few in ‘99, it was one of these three: 1. Further Down the Spiral from a site called Burning Weatherman as part of a NIN bundle. 2. Closer and March of the Pigs from Amazon 3. Sin and Fixed from Ebay.

  • ashtrixno1 No BS Gamer (@ashtrixno1) reported

    @MetaQuestVR For people that have an issue with this... I have one word for you... EBAY

  • Balzac_Asimov Failed State Customer Service👨‍🦯 (@Balzac_Asimov) reported

    @jakeriley The first 60 issues of The Flash (the series that ran from 1987-2004) from eBay. One and only time I ever bought a money order.

  • cjnewbs Craig Newbury 🌻 (@cjnewbs) reported

    @wormmmoon I think for me it was a 2nd hand server off eBay when I was trying to learn about computers? Previous owner was a smoker and it was DE-******-SCUSTING. So much tar on the inside you could have paved a road with it 🤢🤢🤢

  • Misfire_M249 Margaret (@Misfire_M249) reported

    @1800CONTACTS Have you used your own website? It’s honestly terrible. I’m a first time contact wearer and trying to find affordable options has me having to look at EVERY SINGLE listing your website has to see the pricing. No sort? Why?! I’m 🤏 to buying used ones off @eBay🤬😒

  • DoubleEagleDan Dan Malloy (@DoubleEagleDan) reported

    @ChrisCapPGA @eBay Sounds like a problem for him. I wouldn't expect you to replace it unless the mfr allowed a return.

  • eBay_UK eBay UK (@eBay_UK) reported

    @monica_farrell I’m sure mine was eBay but I don’t remember or have my login details 😭

  • KimberlyJamesH 𝙹𝚊𝚖𝚒𝚎 🌞🐮🌵 (@KimberlyJamesH) reported

    I just spent $750 to fix my car and I just found something I want on EBay for $55 - I don’t need it but - I’m gonna just pray that it’s still there by the time payday rolls around next week😰

  • rowanoakhill Rowan (@rowanoakhill) reported

    Had a terrible day so I am once again weighing the pros and cons of buying an antique butter churn off eBay

  • atominte Dmitry (@atominte) reported

    @emilyhxrrera craiglist, ebay... why ******? Craiglist, in particular, solves customer problems and requests in the simplest and most cost-effective manner.

  • CardsMax Max (@CardsMax) reported

    Hey @AskeBay. I've been having shipping issues! 1) Is eBay Standard Envelope for $0.57 able to be used to send to Puero Rico? My label is not generating. 2) My eBay international standard delivery to Taiwan is unable to generate a shipping label. Ive tried daily for 2 weeks!

  • theKINGNo7 F**k the Tories (@theKINGNo7) reported

    @eBay_UK I had a terrible experience on the eBay website today. I had tried to sell something for the first time. The buyer contacted me quickly but also had a request for me to purchase extra Google play gift cards and include them in the parcel alongside the sunnies.

  • thatbloodyMikey Mikey Walsh (@thatbloodyMikey) reported

    @PixelGirlSlays the nights really drag too... & twitter dying down during that time... & there's only so much you can think of to look at on eBay... I do it all the bastard time

  • camroz Brushwagg (@camroz) reported

    Started selling on ebay recently and have had nothing but problems. Customers are just awful in any iteration.
