  • hitchcock_janey Jane hitchcock photography (@hitchcock_janey) reported

    @melldoom @PaulGoddy1966 You're talking nonsense my friend. We are large scale eBay sellers and we can access Royal Mail postage no problem. Seems like the problem is with you

  • roos_sloss Sloss (@roos_sloss) reported

    @dangle1223 @CardPurchaser 1/2 Just had this problem the other day. Got into an argument with eBay because they classify PR as US, but the SE can only be used in US, not US territories. The card I was shipping was 99c, so I'm not paying an extra 4 dollars to lose money because eBay is a joke

  • JustinStirewalt Justin Stirewalt (@JustinStirewalt) reported

    @yanxchick Some of the printing flaws I've seen on ebay for four or more figures are not what I consider errors. I will say that. When something is put out that is a correction card, that implies an error. If something is just like a print difference (look at 90 donruss dot/Inc) it isn't.

  • triple_e_cards Triple E Cards (@triple_e_cards) reported

    Anyone else having issues with #eBay bulk uploads? Having to upload a file like 6 times to get them all to take? #thehobby @AskeBay

  • MeLiveLongTime Tony (@MeLiveLongTime) reported

    @eBay @mojobreak_com Now you got another problem because each day I don’t get my money back I’m going to continue to give you posts of hate I don’t give a single **** this is what I do to every **** that ***** with me I’ll ******* **** all over your posts for people to watch 🖕🏻

  • JDAbecause joseph A (@JDAbecause) reported

    @JoeBiden from $20,000 down to $600 for selling Used Items on reverb/ebay /craigslist/ anytime an electronic transfer/ paypal /etc. gets you a 1099? For the little guy? Can't sell his riding mower online w/o getting a tax bill? REPEAL

  • yonkster11 Seth (@yonkster11) reported

    @PacerFansCards I’ve had massive issues with EBay standard envelopes lately. I paid for the 3oz level and they returned multiple 2oz envelopes.

  • scottyi Scott Yi (@scottyi) reported

    Posting this to share my terrible @eBay experience. I bought a 48v battery from power_batteryc that worked well until it died 7 months later. The item came with a 1 yr warranty. Instead of honoring it, the seller told me to fix the battery myself. I said I didn't know how. 1/2

  • leonskey Shonji (@leonskey) reported

    @kikaimori @JayBauman1 Buy a nukie tape off ebay and reproduce it indefinitely, problem solved.

  • RecordsLess less than three records (@RecordsLess) reported

    @eBay @AskeBay I know this is old news, but your search is horribly broken. I just searched for "pixies mansfield" (without the quotes) and got mostly soy wax melts that did not contain the term "pixies" OR "mansfield." FIX THE DAMN SITE!

  • MeLiveLongTime ExemptFromBullshit (@MeLiveLongTime) reported

    @eBay @mojobreak_com Slow as **** service just so you can get a bit of money out of me it’s like a loan right now ay you pricks

  • MeLiveLongTime Tony (@MeLiveLongTime) reported

    @eBay @mojobreak_com If your going to **** around with me while I’m trying to buy things then I can **** around to and make people realise how scummy your service is and very slow poor communication no response from you at all just dumb indian working at eBay customer service it’s a joke

  • Jimbo_n_Limbo Jimbo in limbo (@Jimbo_n_Limbo) reported

    @dangle1223 @CardPurchaser PR is the US. I shipped standard envelope there with no problems. PR can't be listed as a country on eBay, I tried.

  • WindowIsntOpen Clueless Chris (@WindowIsntOpen) reported

    @triple_e_cards @AskeBay I have been trying to close an "unreceived item case" all day and it keeps telling me their server is down. I hope @ebay doesn't refund me my money when the card I bought is back to receiving tracking updates again. The seller has been very helpful the whole time

  • FCHosie F.C. Hosie (@FCHosie) reported

    @vesiel_ Depends on what you consider good. You can cop an old thinkpad on ebay for like under $100 you just have to fix it up a little. They run really well tho

  • CAvalos7 cavalos7 * (@CAvalos7) reported

    @KGF1986 Oh my man, we should have talked ages ago! You'll have one or two go through the ringer obviously - refund and request a refund from ebay but for the most part, 99% of the cards will be delievered ok. I even ship ultra cheap cards $1-$3 in card savers with no problem.

  • MeLiveLongTime ExemptFromBullshit (@MeLiveLongTime) reported

    @eBay @mojobreak_com What ******** is your problem your stupid ***** robbing me and taking advantage of me while I’m making my orders like some desperate pieces of ****.. I tried to purchase two items they didn’t go through I waited 5 minutes and nothing happened until I purchased again 🖕🏻 scum 🖕🏻

  • JeanineMAGA Jeanine D'Amato (@JeanineMAGA) reported

    @JohnBel34148836 I have no problem buying used on ebay

  • HMo1166 Harry Morris (@HMo1166) reported

    ...except I showed the cops all prior purchases from 6 months+ ago and you asked for permission each time even down to a 9.99 kindlebook on eBay then I explained you were both estranged, and both to be prosecuted you can come back to NY but if Upstate you get scooped up!

  • triple_e_cards Triple E Cards (@triple_e_cards) reported

    @Cards_5280 @AskeBay I gave up on it tonight, I did not list laast night but remember something from my timeline of issues. Would be nice if @eBay would chime in #thehobby

  • RipleyInCT Ripley in CT (@RipleyInCT) reported

    Someone on ebay just paid me $152 for a broken, but nearly complete, 1975 action figure. Toy collectors and restorers have too much disposable income. But I'll keep taking it.

  • MeLiveLongTime ExemptFromBullshit (@MeLiveLongTime) reported

    @eBay @mojobreak_com Why are you so desperate to rob me hey I want my ******* money back you ******* pricks cancel my order now what’s taking so ******* long you slow bastards!

  • JustJordan_1 Derwin Davis (@JustJordan_1) reported

    They closed ******** down she using Ebay

  • ColmaSatchel daytona 🦝 (@ColmaSatchel) reported

    Found a Holy Grail jacket in my size on eBay but it's 500$ im about to do terrible things

  • obicol obicolkenobi™ (@obicol) reported

    @MEZAIAL It's a really nice piece. I funded it on Hasbro Pulse two years ago for £370 and pre-ordered the new wand for £110. People were actually able to pre-order up to five Proton Packs. The problem now is they're currently being flipped on eBay from anything between £600 and £1600.

  • MeLiveLongTime Tony (@MeLiveLongTime) reported

    @eBay @mojobreak_com That seller is going to think why just why eBay! would you not tell him ‘me’ it’s in pending glitch mode so wait but I can’t see if it’s going to go through or not haha it’s you that’s the problem a real nasty ***** ******* problem

  • GMC_Capital J.K. (@GMC_Capital) reported

    @fizzlemcfizzler Ratings, vouches, etc. all mean little to me. Unless I know the individual personally, these days in the hobby, “guilty until proven innocent.” Have the individual pay first and then you take down the listing. There’s a middle ground on pricing then (e.g., $100 on eBay, so $95)

  • kidfenris Todd Ciolek (@kidfenris) reported

    @mollipen I've sold a bunch of Magic cards on eBay in the past year without much trouble. It's good to have some protective sleeves for them. You can try having the really valuable cards graded, because it's possible an unscrupulous buyer will claim the condition is "not as described."

  • theartist_b_rad brady 🫠 (@theartist_b_rad) reported

    @talliesinyoung Try taking up weekly thrifting! I’ve also had a great time buying little DIY projects off eBay. Like a cool shirt that has a rip that I can fix
