    @Dm_Cards_ @CardsBoulevard The owner of the real prizm black (and a few other smart people I follow) seem convinced it’s actually a fake and not even a mistakenly made 2nd copy so I think a lot of potential factors at play that drove the price on the eBay one down.

    @puppyxbite You can look for skateboards on eBay and fix em up + paint them

    @NinWire Scary situation with the example of the game keycard for Borderlands 4 on eBay that went up for sale. Someone bought and found it only returned an error code as nothing is on the cartridge. Obviously that game was cancelled but the cartridge was legit. Fate of all key cards.

    @GFilwett @eBay No, this is a slab bag. The problem is it’s a single card in a penny sleeve inside a card saver and then because that’s in the box that gets banged around like crazy it slides out of the card saver. I can re-create it in three seconds.

    @quinnysoda It’s OK it happens. I’m pretty sure if I do decide to get it down the line I can find it on eBay.

    @premiercards_2 @eBay A simple piece of tape would fix it. I tape every card I sell

    @cardofdreams I bought this from eBay years ago. 36 card display case that says UV protected. Have six full. Used to have on the wall but took down for safety reasons. They sit on the floor against a wall and nice to be able to access whenever.

    @uksnapey @Alexandr4Denman I bought 48 for £23 on eBay… brings the price down to £0.48 which isn’t bad

    @eBay Contacted your customer service 5 times about a buyer scamming me. You've avoided helping me every single time. As a seller, I'm done. Never using eBay again. Your support is terrible and leaves honest sellers unprotected. #eBay #CustomerServiceFail #eBayScam

    @spideygalsolo I got mine on ebay! they're the brave new world & you and thunderbolts & you jpn exclusive plush so unfortunately they're very overpriced for what they are. I only ended up getting them bc they stopped trying to sell bucky for 100usd LOL so they'll probably continue to go down

    @lynn_dodds84927 I just found 10 items that are cheaper on eBay vs Amazon in about 15 seconds. Amazon should be faster you're paying a membership fee. Since they started using the United States Postal Service that is went downhill in my area. As for returns I've had a few issues but even if the seller does not want to accept the return eBay forces them to and gives you your money back and sometimes you get to keep the item.

    Has anyone had issue with an @eBay account getting suspended out of the blue for no discernible reason? I have never sold anything and my last transactions have been non-events. I have no recourse, no way to petition or escalate. This is super upsetting!

    @pmitu I disagree. I spoke to several eBay resellers about the issues they were having. Built Privy - an eBay product intelligence tool that solved those problems. But I’m struggling to get active users!

    @dizzy_dman Depends. From the actual team, hit or miss? Actually from someone like eBay, definitely stanky Recently received a Thrashers jersey (rip) and the jersey smelled like cheap cologne. Was terrible. Received another game worn jersey and there was a stain that got progressively worse

    The crazier part is TCGPlayer is so much worse. I went back to ebay and it was relieving, but still a big problem. TCGplayer is like 2 weeks after you mark as shipped or sometning. On TCGPlayer I constantly ran into liquidity issues and had more money pending than liquid.

    @KLeinzz0xL Just a hobby. I buy cheap broken consoles on Ebay and fix them. If I don't have one I add it to my collection, otherwise I trade them into the game store or gift them to friends. This particular ps1 is going to a friend who's ps1 broke recently

    sounds great on paper, but there's a detail: to get your game into the kids catalog, developers must now pay $5/month for roblox plus, pass id verification and enable 2fa. Roblox plus launches april 30. The kids system launches in june, subscription revenue flows first, child safety comes second. and the whole thing runs on facial age estimation that was publicly broken within days of launch. Kids drew wrinkles on their faces and got flagged as 21+. Someone showed a photo of kurt cobain and passed. parents scanned their own faces to unlock chat for their children, accidentally placing minors into the adult tier with full access to adult strangers. Age-verified child accounts showed up on ebay for $5. by q3 2025, users 13 and older made up 2/3 of roblox's 151 million daily players. This was never a kids platform in the way they marketed it. Split is roblox catching up to what the data already showed. meanwhile, 146 families are suing in consolidated federal litigation. state ags are lining up. tennessee's attorney general called roblox "the digital equivalent of a creepy cargo van at the edge of a playground" platform had years to build these walls. It took 146 lawsuits and a biometric pr crisis to make them move.

    @saltyalmonds_ @McFranchisee As a buyer, you'll get your money. eBay always sides with the buyer unless the item is drastically different than the description. Thankfully I haven't had any issues with buyers yet.

    @Richard_Colo @eBay I’ve had so many @eBay issues being a seller similar to this, was a seller since ‘05 and walked away due to unfair treatment of sellers and piss poor customer service.

    For a hat guy - and I have a couple hundred all told - the Masters hat in the same green as the jacket is a near holy grail. They don’t sell it, and if it shows up on eBay they run that thing down and you never get invited back.

  • whostolejdub3o
    the real Cavs advocate (@whostolejdub3o) reported

    @RNFdowney @eBay and, no, a bid is not a binding contract when made in error. a binding contract requires intent. when you intend to bid 11.56 and not 1156, there is no contract when your bid is automatically raised to 25.77--regardless of any ebay policy. there was never any intent to bid that.

    @Famos21 @HeyAaronW @CardPurchaser You get a receipt when you pay on eBay. So there ya go, cus idk what you mean by that. Topps take $ day of pre order months before any inkling of shipping. Again, calm down buddy. Are you upset cus you like to win auctions then cancel? If not idk why you are crying?

    @XRPee1983 I've seen this seller a lot on eBay and whilst they do have some great items, they sell collectables at obscene prices I dont understand why they wont try to price it fairly even if its initially ridiculous like 25K. At least you can negotiate down You can haggle from $5 mill!

    @trunkofcards @CardPurchaser The seller shouldn’t care about someone else’s eBay fees. Not the sellers problem.

    @SquirtleMobCapt The manon hoodie will sell out and be available on eBay for $2499. The yoonchae will also sell out and be available on eBay for 4 million won. Daniella’s will not sell out. Lara’s will be damaged in transit. A glitch will prevent Megan’s from being available.

    @olamin2003 Worst is you have to hope the parts unit you buy on EBay doesn’t have the same problem.

    @thehaileemurphy Hi! You can buy codes on EBay at the start of every season for $20. TMobile users get it free and sell the codes - I’ve done this for 5 years now and haven’t had a problem. Great way to save money in the future :)

    @MikeRowdic @CardPurchaser @eBay We had issues with business vs personal name. Hope you get it sorted.
