  • adyd321 Adyd321 (@adyd321) reported

  • CarolynG0213 Saved By Grace (@CarolynG0213) reported

    @DrShayPhD All kidding aside before eBay shut it down my daughter sold a “condemned” Seuss book for $450!!!’ When I bought it for her over 40 years ago I probably paid something like $2.95.

  • PIIKOK P I I K ○ K (@PIIKOK) reported

    @ElevenOHNOES Haha! So far, I think I found a lady in the UK who puts a few on eBay, but if that falls through I can contact you about it! He’s 100cm, 1.1kg, and very plush so I was thinking the vacuum sealing could cut shipping costs down. I have to research, but I think a trash bag works?

  • sashadarkcloud Sasha DarkCloud (@sashadarkcloud) reported

    @GeorgeClayAnime @Fennwayz @PiousKnob Mercari I thought charges more. Did they reduce their cut? Because ebay is 10%, plus the other problem might be the fear of lack of feedback.

  • Smawllz Smawllz (@Smawllz) reported

    I just won an eBay auction for a brand new complete in box Nintendo 64 Grape console! Used only to test if it still works and with everything it came with 24 years ago down to the plastic wrapping. The collection starts now! So hyped! 🥲 #Nintendo64 #GameCollecting #RetroGaming

  • S_S_Daisy Daisy The Southern Snowflake ❄️❄️ (@S_S_Daisy) reported

    @Rebellionista Maybe that Ebay lady can fix it

  • daddysbabybat ⋆。˚⋆ 𐐪vamp𐑂° ⋆。˚ (@daddysbabybat) reported

    @LittleDeitie a lot of places do single adult *****!! on ebay they’re so so cheap!! don be upset! chu can fix it nd it’ll be all good and new :D

  • scrubmummy catherine deneuve agent (@scrubmummy) reported

    Selling stuff on eBay... biggest rush of my life. Gonna start selling anything in this house that’s not bolted down

  • SashaBilton Team Astrid-Walter (@SashaBilton) reported

    @MichaelVirks I agree, but I'm not even talking about the human-centric problems. How is it possible I can list something when I don't have a working payment receiving config set up? That might reduce irateness upstream, so people are less boiling point rage level when they contact eBay.

  • KayeeLua Kaylua (@KayeeLua) reported

    @mandyonba @comebacksparkle @TheRealHoarse Right! Stop asking people living in lock down for over a year for “donations”. Have a bake sale or start selling stuff on eBay or offer to actually do something in exchange for donations instead of word salad promises that fail to materialize

  • OddsManagerUK Odds Manager (@OddsManagerUK) reported

    @Mr_Sowden Been trying to hunt one of these down on eBay for weeks

  • craighazlewood Craig (@craighazlewood) reported

    @PS5StockAlertUK I can't believe I still can't get one 😫 was in the queue a few minutes after it was open. There are already unit popping up on ebay so clearly the scalper issue is still a problem 🙄

  • Doz23 Doz (@Doz23) reported

    @JontyEvans @PS5StockAlertUK Yeah I mean we are 4 months after release? Any supply issues should have been sorted by now surely. Or maybe supply doesn’t even matter because bots would sweep up all of it anyway. Nature of any product in demand nowadays sadly. They will all be on eBay at triple price

  • DamoField Damian Field (@DamoField) reported

    @iamPeaSoup @Kenny_Pryde I have the same problem with a couple of hundred football programmes & a decades worth of Shoot! magazines from the 80s. No value on eBay & can’t bear the thought of them going in the recycling bin. Anyone interested?

  • MgateMakeLounge Margate Make Lounge (@MgateMakeLounge) reported

    @eBay_UK good morning , is there a problem with eBay this morning, I have been trying to save items on my phone app and on my laptop without success

  • _nirj { N } (@_nirj) reported

    @FinLitCoach Clean windows, remove snow, mow lawns, sell on ebay, sell bbq food, fix things, assemble things, sell stuff they don't need, be patient and move to begin his journey

  • bevertonrayan Thirteen (@bevertonrayan) reported

    @AskeBay If the seller claims the product is brand new but the box is damaged is it safe to assume that the product itself is in good condition? Will the ebay guarantee cover me if the product is broken

  • ShaneWEwen Shane Ewen (@ShaneWEwen) reported

    Although I mentioned @eBay @eBay_UK in my original tweet.. I am now being asked to contact them... even though it is @Argos_Online are the seller of the broken/gdpr breaching TV...

  • Ipekselcuknyc Selcuk Ipek (@Ipekselcuknyc) reported

    @BicyclesOnly It’s great but unfortunately there are thousands of them, and it’s really dangerous. There are a lot of regular motor scooters that you can buy on eBay for $500 that are just zipping the streets up and down. None of them have license plates

  • CardsCorey Corey's Cards (@CardsCorey) reported

    @RyansCardss Sent me down an ebay rabbit role of beatles psa cards

  • kyle_segers kmillz (@kyle_segers) reported

    my n***** know that i’m riding, i’m down to buy some wheels off ebay

  • WillPreston Will Preston (@WillPreston) reported

    @concannon @pcgamer I got an RTX 3080 without any problems* * I paid much more than full price for one off eBay* * I BIDDED for one on eBay

  • SavageHoutkop Savage Houtkop (@SavageHoutkop) reported

    @NihilisticAbyss I've just broken my sennheiser ones and bought a second hand pair off eBay to replace. There were a few available

  • AutumnDagaz Autumn 🇪🇺 (@AutumnDagaz) reported

    Sorting through my books and checking eBay to see if they're worth anything. End up book shopping instead. #booklovers problems.

  • itgirIrina brielle (@itgirIrina) reported

    Like there’s a j-14 issues selling for $25 in ebay that has SHAWN MENDES on the cover...that is not vintage!!

  • MgateMakeLounge Margate Make Lounge (@MgateMakeLounge) reported

    @AskeBay Good morning ,is there a problem with eBay this morning I thabe been trying to save items I want to buy on my phone app and in laptop without success

  • dvsch derrick has started yet another project (@dvsch) reported

    first off: this is probably a terrible idea. Most people get into NFTs I think because of the discovery aspects. youre not gonna get much discovery on ebay. There’s already a bunch of people filling up the "NFT" search with some shady ****.

  • Nicklo2k Handsome Nick (@Nicklo2k) reported

    @Mayhemzz22 @GAMEdigital Why would they care about stopping bots? They pay the same as real people. I doubt Game care. It's not their problem when the product gets flipped on eBay for a massive mark up.

  • ChrisCernoch Cernoch’s Connection (@ChrisCernoch) reported

    @ISOBOLO1 @eBay Careful with these, I’ve had these taken down in my store before. CPAP stuff is kind of a no no on the bay.
