    @leeleykeel Also tried selling my soul on eBay a la Bart Simpson on a piece of paper and it got to almost 10K before it was taken down. That was a bummer.

    @furtiso Used docs? Plenty on eBay, cheaper & generally broken in. Earlier pairs are often better quality to boot.

    @AmazonHelp When I select an item/s to buy, you try and sell me prime delivery crap, and delivery is not free for anything under £20, eBay delivery is free on many items You should have a simple system and not push prime Amazon down our throats I'm not happy with your method of delivery

    Got in contact with the eBay seller last night. Yeah, they simply forgot to pack in San Andreas with the other GTAs. Honest mistake tbh. They're gonna get it shipped to me as soon as they can. See? Problem The Solved.

    @nijomu Jesus! That must Cartoonist Kayfabe's doing. When I got back on eBay a few years ago, it was one of the first things I sought out. I'm sure I paid less than $100. Issues 1 and 3 I found in the wild years ago. That's a ridiculous price. But it is a legitimately scarce comic.

    @eBay bought 200 face masks pkgd in 10s. Not 1/10 opened do not have problems:broken ear loops, or 2 tight,feel like cardboard, 2 small. Asked 4 partial refund-denied by seller. Appealed-told 48-72 hr. Didn't hear back. Now told 2 late. Crappy product that @ebay shld stand by.😡

    @bbroccolibaby I’ve gotten 2 refurbished iPhones and an iPod touch from eBay. Never had any problems. I just look for manufacturer refurbished and not seller refurbished (avoid jailbroken as well). Since I’m under Boost (formerly Virgin) their phones tend to be less expensive. Good luck!

  • Foone

    They keep a mostly working iPhone 5C around for just this reason but if it ever dies they're in trouble. They can't even get a replacement off ebay because the app store won't let them download the app anymore.

    @eBay I need help. I need a human. EBay is offering me no way to speak with a person. My problem is not covered by your topics. A seller is attempting to refuse me my refund, making excuses. PLEASE CONTACT ME. This is ridiculous.

    Paid $60 eBay for a fully loaded Cisco UCS server, dual Xeon E6-2670 64GB etc. These have some reputation for being hard to set up, only LSI MegaRaid’s CLI was a piss to figure out but took one cmd create a RAID1 logical drive & then USB boot Ventoy & installed Guix like any PC.

    @Flashma78139552 @dalyk274 And the Vodafone ad ‘we will donate your old handset’? Who to…. Let me see. Also;I got this phone direct from sky, supposed to be new.downloaded eBay app and another woman’s login details were stored and said ‘log in with….’ So don’t trade in your devices even after resetting

    @freewayflippers problem is with the way eBay typically treats sellers, they may be right.

    Stocks & Crypto (F.I.R.E.) (@LostOnWallSt) reported

    The server I bought came with 1 16G 3200mhz RAM stick (The most expensive) I bought much slower ones online. 256G for £521. That single 16G stick it came with is worth over £200 on Ebay, Jesus Christ. I will be selling that!

    @Casey @LAPDWestLA Must be nice, I had mine broken into, found the guy selling the gear on ebay, and informed the detectives of LAPD... 4 months later I got a follow up call asking what I wanted to talk to them about... set me back about 9 years as a DP

    @HearHerRoar2020 I sometimes have items I'd like to sell on Ebay. I hate giving my cell # to anyone. I would meet the buyers in a park with the item. That way no spam and my garage/house isn't broken into later after they case the area.

    @fhmtweets Still haven't managed to. eBay got flooded with them so drove the price down. Going for about 130-150

    @Ansajo3 Hi there 👋 If you printed and used a label on eBay to send out the item, the information around how much this cost is available from your shipping labels section from My eBay>Selling from the top right of the desktop and then down the right hand side ~Chelsey

    It's like @eBay actually sit down and think ... "How can we make our UI as inconsistent and confusing as possible"

    Bought "brand new" bargain on @eBay. Turns up broken & used. Seller was all "What? That's genuine!!" until I sent photos of evidence. Then they issued a return. AARRGGHH. How come some people think it's fine to try & rip buyers off?

    @JustYeeHaa Yeah my current is an MSI. Couple of years ago it's fans failed. They no longer make fans for this model, so they could do nothing. And we're exceptionally unhelpful. Had to find a fan on ebay, could only replace one.. the other remains broken and it just overheats constantly.

    @nijomu Just looked at eBay. I can't believe what 1 and 3 are going for. I've stumbled across 3 dozens of times. I had that as issue as a teenager. Wow.

    @alex_avoigt Watched a youtube about the failure of Yahoo - makes Apple's failure to back Tesla look like nothing Yahoo turned down buying - Google - YouTube - eBay - Facebook & turned down a buyout offer of $44B from Microsoft, only for their yahoo to drop to $4B a few yrs later

    @JohnGeeMcCarthy Etsy is most important of these 3. eBay is in trouble at the mo due to changes they made to payments / fees - harder than ever for sellers to make money. I've seen great ROI on my Etsy ads (illustrations) too.

    Was gonna get to sleep at a good time and fix my schedule but now I've been up all day trying to make sure I don't get scammed and get a refund for an eBay item that came and was DEFINITLY not what I ordered 😖😪
