JT (@LaPinaFan) reported@j23a45y @CardPurchaser I’m winding down my eBay selling, so just have the few up. But, no way would I be charging you that shipping. I can ship 25 cards in sleeves, top loaders, team-bagged with cardboard protection for a fraction of that - I’ll take a shot and say $15. I refund same day.

AggieDave (@Aggiedave1998) reportedBuyer BEWARE. Apparently, @eBay policy is to allow 100%, stone cold LIES to be advertised on their site. Multiple listings reported for blatant lies intended to manipulate search. eBay: “No problem found” Interesting.

Liz Morton ~ Value Added Resource (@ValueAddedRS) reported@RDKLInc @southscanner @eBay I did a sell similar on that listing to see what the seller had entered - 9 lbs, 20 x 20 x 12. If you plug that into the USPS retail postage calculator using the zip code for seller location & buyer zip in your screenshot, it does come out to $74.27 for the click & ship rate. So that means the eBay calculator is working correctly for the info provided. USPS has made some recent changes that cause the rates to go up pretty significantly depending on dimensions - for example that same 9 lbs in a 12 x 12 x 12 would only be $14.92. I'm guessing some of the sellers you're seeing with high prices may have historically padded their dimensions a bit in effort to avoid shipping adjustments after the fact & they may not realize it is affecting their pricing much more now than it may have in the past. There could certainly be other instances where the issue is an error on eBay's part but when it comes to something like this example, really the only thing eBay could do to address it is to maybe have a warning advising sellers to review their listings for correct weight & dimensions - or to consider adding other shipping methods, like the flat rate options you mentioned. Ultimately though it's up to the seller to make sure they are entering correct info & to decide which shipping options they want to offer.

Run 📈 (@romantradez) reported@harkl_ That’s Solana’s problem right now and probably the reason we’re witnessing the lowest organic activity I’ve ever seen. Normal users pay for the mistakes. I’ve always wondered why successful web2 eco systems, eBay, Amazon prioritise buyers (users) over sellers (builders) while blockchains adopt an inverse strategy

Alan Hoffman (@AlanHoffma66179) reported@FinanceJack44 Well damn, now I see my problem. I've been trying to learn Spanish on Duolingo, buying on Ebay using PayPal and walking in a pair of Nikes. I've got to change my ways.

John J Harrington (@JohnJHarring22) reported@22CCnews Yes I sold my season tickets on eBay for the low price off. $25 and it took hours to sell my problem is the Lying ***** C.C. I was her biggest fan but all she did was lie .

Unbiased American 🇺🇸 Ŧ Ŧ (@UnBiased_Merica) reported@8thWonderCards Damn that’s a sweet collection. If you have any issues with sales of them hmu. I don’t have an eBay but would be heavily interested
-
John Bumstead (@RDKLInc) reported@ValueAddedRS @southscanner @eBay Interesting, thanks! That’s a great way to test it. I guess prices have just gone up. But also, people should not ship anything of any size with USPS, for many reasons, but one is price. I wonder if something recently has pushed people to USPS rather than FedEx/UPS, which is much better for larger items. There’s definitely a recent upsurge in this problem.

The_Elixir_of_Freedom (@ElixirofFreedom) reportedI've abandoned my Fakebook account. I deleted my original FB account in 2020 when censorship was slamming down. I went back in 2022 for my eBay stuff but ended up in an endless loop so in Dec of 2024 I abandoned it. I need to get on there and completely delete it.

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.

The greatness of the thomas fandom (@of_greatne42673) reportedAs bad as his prices were it really was not justified for me to be happy when his eBay account was down. It’s really the only way they make money. (someone can correct me if I’m wrong.)
-
Knarz (@knarz_) reported@burrrgers @u_m_a_m_i The fact you feel that landlords are “providing housing” shows that you’ve lost the plot. That’s like saying these losers on eBay are “providing” people with Pokémon cards or shoes or any number of things that get scalped. These middle men are the problem.
-
FlyByNight (@Youreright101) reported@BleachStarPoet @GlitchedDeals Resellers. The reason all these pc parts are over MSRP. If the consumer refused to pay 1000$ for a 700$ GPU they'd have to reduce the price. The problem is, people are stupid. I won't buy a 5070ti unless it's 750 or less. And they popup on ebay and FB market every so often.

Angry Toothpick Jerky (@angrytoothpick) reportedI’ve sold 503 cards on eBay. I have 99.7% positive feedback. The one person who left me back feedback felt unfair. He ordered a $3 card with envelope shipping. I sent it in a Turtle Shell and it weighed half of 3oz at best. Apparently the post office held it ransom and charged him $7 to pick it up. I’ve never seen or heard of that as a seller… never. However, I would have paid for it and refunded the price card in a heartbeat. The buyer is always right and I’m happy to make it right, but the buyer never once messaged me. Never told me they were having an issue and never relayed any info until I saw the negative feedback. Tough out here sometimes 😕

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

Prospect Card Radar (@PC_Radar) reported@ALTPEPEEEEEEE The problem is for every kid that is mailing him cards to sign there are 100 grown adult men doing the same thing ruining it for the kids because they want to flip them on eBay.

Dinah Tyranno 🍖🦖 (@DinahTyranno) reported@nagichi_boop @lockwayart @glitch They actually lied to me when I bought one and said that eBay was the one changing their listings with AI.

Bow Echo (@bowecho777) reported@eatlearnplay @eBay What is going on at Ebay? Make an Offer is broken everywhere!

Bulbartsaur (@FanofBulbasaur) reported@DisTrackers eBay is terrible they don’t respond unless you call, even after that they let scammers stay on their site without doing anything. Even for selling they suck they deleted everything I posted cause I logged in on a tablet instead of my phone
-
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!
-
Growing Aloha (@TruthHawaii369) reported@EMTP3764 @RichardCabezza Cool! And lame! Ebay a'hole buyers suck! Just had a guy buy one of the 600 minted Jurassic World T-rex shaped coins who fricken returned without saying anything same day as he received it giving the reason as "Just didn't like it". It is (or at least was) pristine in OMP. It's still on the USPS slow boat back to me, so 🤞 it's still pristine. MF-er! Don't need the stress!

Punch The Monkey (@pittiecoco) reportedCalling it now - when LIV officially shuts down at least one golf hack with absolutely zero talent (I know, I should be more specific) will title their article: LIV Golf: The Day the Music Died Matt Vinclownzi will be ransacking his office for things he can throw on EBay.

I trade negative RR (@TradeNegative) reported@Cex why ******** does your Bristol branch sell 3070’s for £300+ when you can buy em on eBay for £200 no problems? Almost everything you sell has a ridiculous mark up. 500gb nvme for £90 are you tripping?

Sawyer 🔍, ⏸️/⏹️, is using fewer disclaimers (@CoughsOnWombats) reported@GoneAnon0 Ordered it off eBay this afternoon. I may or may not read the thing- the list of things I feel like I really should read is not short. But if people are going to go to this much trouble to stop me reading a book, it's worth $14 to preserve future access to that book.
