Darth Rishikos (@rishi841312) reported@bumbadum14 I mean..how is it any worse than actual american soldiers getting "martyred" for Israel lmao? At least the Indians make money, get rich and buy awesome things. Yank soldiers get a ******* medal you can buy on ebay 😭 It's not a race or nation issue. It's a 21st century class system at play as well as intelligence. You won't pay indians to join your army for 10 million dollars.

Danielle Louise Longworth 💙🤍 (@DanielleWafc) reported@eBay is the UK site down the app isn't working and its not working any other way either
-
Rick (@RickL420) reported@eBay Yea, your agent just hung up on me after explaining my problem. I’m paying you monthly for a store. I need real support. Not this bullshit
-
H. Mincherley (@WanderingSadu) reportedYou can actually buy almost all books for £3 including postage on eBay. Anyone who can't afford £1.15 has much bigger problems than this. It's just middle class entitlement.

Augustcool Research (@augustcool) reportedCalifornia unsealed evidence today showing Amazon colluded with retailers like Walmart and Target to fix higher consumer prices. • Amazon pressured vendors to raise prices on competing websites to ensure no other retailer undercut its platform • Common vendors served as go-betweens to coordinate price hikes on sites including Walmart, Target, and eBay • Merchants faced penalties like losing the Buy Box or site suspension for offering lower prices elsewhere • Internal communications revealed Amazon officials vowed to help vendors hunt the price disrupters in the market

Literally Titler (@AndKansel) reported@TimCunn67668864 @NoticerNews 30 days for a Mirror on a hoopty? 30 bucks on ebay and 5 minutes of work. But they are soy boy lefties so they would happily pay a dealership 1 grand to fix it.
-
Expo (Comic on Webtoon!) (@ExpoDraws) reported@Lilclay_X That wont be an issue at all, scalplers only want first edition versions of volume 1 of manga, not the 20th reprint, while this is dumb it doesnt affect much. Its just scalpers spending thousands on ebay for a single book and showing it off while not knowing the mc’s name lol
-
JuanGrande386 (@JuanGrande386) reportedSomeone left a Neutral Feedback from an order from about a month ago because it was one of the listings that Ebay double listed (it's like a weird glitch that happens). Obviously I didn't have the game because I already sold it! I would actually prefer no Feedback at all....
-
Fadi (@shahf82) reported@VOC_ai Same pattern on eBay. Analyzed defect feedback across 50K listings and most "not as described" cases traced back to the same 4-5 fitment description fields. Fix the template, not individual tickets. On eBay, defects hit search visibility directly, so the cost shows up faster than a star rating drop.
-
Grok (@grok) reported@dreamworks2050 @sudoingX Around $8k–$12k total for a solid 8x 3090 node right now. GPUs: 8x used ~$650–$900 each on eBay = $5.2k–$7.2k Rest (EPYC/Threadripper mobo, 256–512GB RAM, 3–4kW PSUs, server chassis, risers): $2.5k–$4.5k Power hungry (3kW+ draw) and needs proper cooling. Rent an 8x first on Runpod/Novita (~$1.70/hr) to test your workflow before buying. Matches what you need for those 27B–31B agents.

Kura (@Kurafi) reported@AeolidBranch Problem is i have to buy them from ebay or smth cuz i could only find some korean cards here locally 🙃
-
Fig Bonner (@FigBonner) reported@poke_maam Was going to grab some raw ones on eBay to grade. They all look terrible though
-
Lord Azure (@Your_Lord_Azure) reported@Mattchewtheblue Honestly this is also a US problem, cards drop like a stone in Europe. Ive made more money selling spare cards to US via ebay than selling locally and thats with me covering the shipping! I dont know why that market is so inflated!
-
Exalted Speed (@Exalted_Speed) reportedLook man if I was I’m doing a terrible job because I don’t have an eBay shop in my profiles trying to hawk this **** off on fans. “Have your 9.8 o parts Hunter volume it’s by Kishimoto’s brother I’m sure it’s going to make you rich”
-
タイラー・クロイド (@HotTubFun1) reported@LincolnLewis13 @Whiskeyth3nerd @BarryOnHere 2/2 - But it really comes down to what are you willing to sell them for imo. eBay might reach a broader audience that wants to buy them, but you might have to put up with fees from them. You can sell them on that website after making a profile.
-
That Startup (@ThatStartup_) reportedIn 1999, eBay had 10M users. But sellers set prices too low because they feared no bids. So eBay added "reserve price" auctions. GMV jumped 40% in one quarter. The hard truth: your marketplace won't fix itself. You fix the incentives.
-
Denny (@dennymac30) reported@tm1515152005 Communicate communicate communicate The buyer appreciates it and they’ll more likely contact you if there’s anything else issue rather than just straight filing a claim with eBay
-
Chems (@Actual_Chems) reported@drfrink5 Contact ebay support and you can get a refund. If not issue a chargeback.
-
S3Nano (@S3nano) reported@3IDInfantryvet @eBay @CardPurchaser issue the label for the return. refund when you get it. block buyer. drop the username so i could block also
-
@TDog55 🇮🇱🇺🇸🇮🇹 (@TDogCali53) reported@PSAcard what is the status on the eBay issue of when an item sells it gets stuck for weeks to months on the transaction? I have an open ticket for an $800 card that shows sold on eBay but nothing is happening!!!
-
CheeseAC (@Yosefcentral) reported@MICHAELBER28985 I wish they were a bit cheaper, I’ve been trying to find a cheaper Glavine jersey that dosent look way too fake or is signed on eBay. Considering he’s a top 10 player in our history arguably, You’d assume you could find more. I got a sheerzy of him when I was down for a game once
-
stevenniels (@stevenniels1) reported@theseoldcars They get water in them and the wires rot out. Cheapest fix is a complete new unit off Ebay. Fiddly to fit.
-
PieStudios (@CyberStudios808) reported@drfrink5 @OnlyGoken You need to get eBay on the phone, whoever looked at your case did not understand what the problem was
-
gabbagool (@HalSellTheTeam) reported@BarstoolHubbs It was on eBay but it looks like the listing was taken down unfortunately
-
PokéCardsDaily (@PokeCardsDaily) reportedThe other night I scrolled eBay for 5 different cards. How many sellers were well below market, zero reviews, and created in April 2026? Over 75% of the listings. @eBay fix👏🏼 this👏🏼 ****👏🏼

James T. Gordon (@jamestgordon) reportedEdgar (name altered for privacy) just lost an insane amount of data. His san server had a nice 7-8 year run but spontaneously gave up the ghost … and the manufacturer no longer supports it. So he went to eBay hoping someone, somewhere, still had what he needed. That happened to one of our buyers last week. Edgar found a unit we had, bought it from our Phoenix Solutions eBay store, dropped his drives into it … … and recovered all. the. data! He dm’d us overjoyed that what was lost was now found. Edgar even offered to ship us their failed unit, just so it could be properly recycled. In 15 years of selling on eBay, no one’s ever offered that. This surfaces an often overlooked aspect to circularity. It’s not only about extending the lifespan of tech. Circularity makes what’s obsolete and discontinued still available to all the Edgar’s out there, in a bind. ITAD services aim to keep as much as possible in use for as long as possible. That’s the heartbeat of circularity. Recycling is such a catch-all concept, and the significance of all that it stands for can be easily lost on us. So know that when you say “yes” to electronics recycling you saying “yes” to circularity and Edgar’s saved data. We’re so stoked for the happy ending (and hopefully Edgar gets some redundancy and backups in place, lol). It’s moments like this make a rather labor intensive process so worth it!

Trevor Blackwell (@tlbtlbtlb) reportedMy goodness, it's hard to buy server ram. DDR5 RDIMMs aren't just expensive -- they're also out of stock everywhere. Found some on eBay and hoping for the best.

delta!「メガフォーム」🐦⬛🍃⚡️ (@CatTrainerDelta) reported@pollypocketmode @mobydeekhead @hasamahf98 buyer is a nobody with 4 feedback. i have no problem calling up ebay if they wanna start a problem.
-
Joe A (@aceofcards89) reported@YoitisLeo My general rule with fanatics auctions is to try and get my max bid down as soon as possible. I want to discourage people from getting involved. Different approach on eBay, I try to snipe there.
-
Cory (@HD15271987) reported@eBay I’ve called over 5 times for the issue and nothing has happen other than my account being restricted and being told it’s @eBay policy not to tell me why. I’ve even completed surveys
