    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

    @trunkofcards @CardPurchaser The seller shouldn’t care about someone else’s eBay fees. Not the sellers problem.

    @eBay_UK Messaged customer service 6 hours ago here on twitter still waiting for a reply. Ebay app is also useless for getting In touch the AI just sends you in circles and the help section is rubbish and never ever related to the issue.

    My old ipad mini used to work just fine. Used for browsing the net. Recently though, many national websites, while individual pages open, none of the links or menus work. Ebay - search list is minute - individual item pages work fine? Websites part of the problem. IP licensing?

    @fatparoon @Sir_BeefWelly @CardPurchaser Some people don't realize that there are people from all over the world that buy on eBay legitimately and this person may or may not have just recently started buying and that is why they don't have any feedback in the last 12 months. eBay international shipping protects you as long as they receive the card from you. I have shipped many cards through eBay international shipping including to China without any issue at all.

    Best part is that I got paid last night, I'm already down to £20, but at least I don't owe anyone anything until may. So I thought 'it's okay, I still have £130 to come from @eBay ' except no I don't, because despite them saying '2 days after delivery' and then '0-2 days for

    I have a terrible addiction. It costs me money every month. I do not encourage anyone to walk this path…… But as long as I’m alive I will always probably be obsessed with sports cards!!!! Check this months @eBay auctions!!!!!

    @caesar0817ljc @ParodyComedyP I'm a bot, that's ******* hilarious. I have bought stuff on eBay and got it the next day. Free shipping and no membership fees. The thing about eBay is you can see what state it comes from. I wasn't expecting this post to blow up as much as it did. Amazon used to be pretty decent until they added the United States Postal Service to their system. That's the real issue here.

    @saya08521010 Most of us overseas get ours from people in Japan that buy them locally and sell them on eBay or Yahoo auction So it's kind of a result of both. And many people here contribute to the problem by buying only to sell higher, not to play or collect them

  • 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

    The physical trading card market has a massive friction problem. If you pull a rare card, you have to send it to PSA, wait two months for grading, list it on eBay, pay a 13% fee, and hope the buyer doesn't chargeback. The liquidity is terrible. Digital collectibles solve the liquidity problem instantly, but historically they failed to capture the emotional weight of physical cards. We are building the bridge between the two. The liquidity of crypto with the tactile psychology of physical collecting.

    @CarlaGericke 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.

    went down a reddit rabbit whole cuz the hype n price of pokémon cards makes no sense to me. someone explained it as an almost blind box gambling addiction, which makes sense but doesn’t explain the insane valuation markups on ebay.

    @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.

    @Legacy411 I would source things to sell on eBay. I would buy key issues of certain magazines and comics by the boatload. Same with records, toys, band t-shirts, posters, etc.

    @eBay still have issues with your auto guarantee. Idk how else to explain it that the part your seller sold me doesn’t fit. It’s at least 3 inches too wide.

    @HSGARAGE1 Some friends say it’s useable, a LOT of friends are saying replace the tubes because it’s not safe. There’s a chopper shop down the street, I’m going to check and see if they might have some for sale but probably just going to order them off eBay 🙄 I’m just impatient 🥲

    @2j4ez The same problem as with all old cassette decks: the belt. It’s made of rubber, and rubber ages. Either it slips or it’s already snapped. Opening it up and replacing it isn’t difficult; replacement belts are available for very little money, e.g. on eBay

    Bought pimax micro oled in feb and the waiting is killing me. The more time goes on, the more people i see complain about software or hardware issues with them on reddit. I passed on 2 play for dreams on ebay. I swear if i see one more im cancelling the oled and getting the pfd.
