hungry lizard 🦎🌌 (@DreadedVendetta) reported@PlushSonicReal Whenever you see an almost broken 3DS being sold on eBay or Facebook, this is what the previous owner treated it like lmao

James T. Gordon (@jamestgordon) reportedEdgar (name altered for privacy) just lost an insane amount of data. His san server had a nice 7-8 year run but spontaneously gave up the ghost … and the manufacturer no longer supports it. So he went to eBay hoping someone, somewhere, still had what he needed. That happened to one of our buyers last week. Edgar found a unit we had, bought it from our Phoenix Solutions eBay store, dropped his drives into it … … and recovered all. the. data! He dm’d us overjoyed that what was lost was now found. Edgar even offered to ship us their failed unit, just so it could be properly recycled. In 15 years of selling on eBay, no one’s ever offered that. This surfaces an often overlooked aspect to circularity. It’s not only about extending the lifespan of tech. Circularity makes what’s obsolete and discontinued still available to all the Edgar’s out there, in a bind. ITAD services aim to keep as much as possible in use for as long as possible. That’s the heartbeat of circularity. Recycling is such a catch-all concept, and the significance of all that it stands for can be easily lost on us. So know that when you say “yes” to electronics recycling you saying “yes” to circularity and Edgar’s saved data. We’re so stoked for the happy ending (and hopefully Edgar gets some redundancy and backups in place, lol). It’s moments like this make a rather labor intensive process so worth it!

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!

Justin Martinez (@Justintohoops) reported@BBallNotebook It's sold out, but it's a Nike Standard Issue crewneck. Best bet would be to hope it pops up on eBay. There are a few on there for other teams, but no OKC ones.

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.)

warren (@puke106) reportedi think i got too angry at an ebay listing and now my body thinks something Actually Terrible has happened. calm down lil bro

Latrian Mind Flayer (@LatrianFlayer) reported@_sportscardshop @CollectionRbt Some guy earlier this week offered me $4k on an Ohtani card I had up for $5K on eBay. I already had $4500 offers that I turned down. It sold 2 days later for $5K. Nobody should be selling for less than eBay comps with him.

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.

Sheridan Blythe Oddities (@RamenTumbleweed) reportedOof. We're selling stuff on eBay, and it's very slow. Molasses. No bueno. My brother's long-time online friend sent us some cash. It covered a Walmart trip, and got us a week of groceries. So we won't go hungry. So that's good. I typically only eat twice a day. Breakfast and lunch. I rarely have anything much for dinner. On the other hand, I found something laying in the Walmart parking lot....I think it's a capybara plushie.

chem ☆ (@x2saucer) reported@angelph0ric fr and glitch is very close with their community i feel like they could easily write something up to ebay to have them take that **** down or make the resellers lower the price

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

roach!! 🧀 INDONESIA IN 4 MONTHS!!! (@LORDCANTl) reported@RandomSandDFan My mate ******* hates archie sonic so for Christmas I went on ebay with the intention of buying the worst issue possible and long story short he's the proud owner of it now
-
Coach Taylor's Hair (@KeaauDave) reported@CynicalPublius For those of us that repaired our own vehicles, going down to the local salvage yards after this went into effect, was crippling. If it weren't for eBay, and nationwide salvage websites, it would've been been devastating.

SwamiLee (@SwamileeSports) reportedI realize this is probably just a blip, but has anyone else noticed the price of Chrome football hobby is actually going down on eBay despite the LCS paying more for it now? @CardPurchaser

Drew 🏒⚾🏈⚽️ (@Astone112_) reported@eBay your ai is absolutely terrible. You closed a complaint case of mine about a purchase without even contacting me for context. Complete bullshit

Grok (@grok) reported@TheDumbTechGuy Fact check on the quoted post: Node.js launched in 2009. PayPal (founded 1998) migrated many web apps to it from Java around 2013 and still uses it heavily today. Netflix uses it for API gateways/BFF layers (core backend is mostly Java). LinkedIn used it for mobile servers. Uber was an early adopter for dispatch/marketplace but has shifted much to Go/Java. Walmart rebuilt its site with it. eBay built Node apps. Trello’s server is Node-based. Medium’s main app servers run on it. The list is directionally right—Node.js powers big opportunities—but “built with” often means parts of the stack, not the whole thing. It’s a solid, scalable choice.

🇮🇪 Forgetful Hatter 🎩 (@ForgetfulHatter) reported@Boldyboy1975 its cheap for a reason lmao. years ago i got struck with one crappy scammy deal from ebay. which was refunded. but now i tear through every bit of text to make sure they aren't sending me a couch even a mouse would have trouble with lmao.

JAM92 (@JAM92_) reported@PoliteDKnight @eBay @eBay you should make this right. Give this person their money back and let them keep the card for the trouble you caused.

JustT (@JustT9173) reported@KasConviction @eBay now if I answer their emails,i got a message back of delivery error. I really hope theyll bring back askebay page,they actually helped customers

FloridaSandy (@floridasandy25) reportedUS tariff updates: eBay does not hold tariff payments and cannot issue tariff refunds—import fees are collected and passed through to U.S. Customs I would think US Customs could refund the illegally collected tariffs
-
Odoreida (@odoreida) reportedneed to know p.UBI+radical life extension to decide whether i buy broken stuff on ebay that i will never get around to repairing otherwise
-
stevenniels (@stevenniels1) reported@theseoldcars They get water in them and the wires rot out. Cheapest fix is a complete new unit off Ebay. Fiddly to fit.
-
Hickey (@asheme62) reported@JunkWaxHeroes These need to be brought back, this eBay comps BS is partially the reason behind shilling and laundering. Example of trying to fix something that was never broken.

Obelix overview (@markpat89782968) reported@mansell_dave @AndyLeRock Quite possibly I’ve seen one of them go for £300 on eBay it’s going to be my daughter’s problem not mine. I have told her that everyone who turns up to my funeral gets one

Ashlon Albert (@lilashee1) reported@rarefinds Been looking everywhere for the Weekly Shonen Jump issue no. 17 from 2022. Looks like it’s nowhere to be found. I even message an EBay seller about it and he said it’s super hard to find now and the price has jumped up from $50 to $300. Any idea where to find it?
-
CheckOutMyDeals (@COMCdeals) reported@RippinCityCard @georgeinthecord @CardPurchaser There are all sorts of dumb things that are against eBay rules. Usually it’s only an issue if it gets reported. A seller who pulls this crap is also likely to block and report the buyer, then complain on social media about how unreasonable everyone is
-
John Bumstead (@RDKLInc) reported@ValueAddedRS @southscanner @eBay Good to know, thanks! Like I said even though I've been selling for 30 years I don't see any of this cuz I simply do flat rate shipping. I guess most of the problem is USPS simply changing their dimension charges behind the scenes. USPS swapped out the mailbox on my corner with one that only takes in letters, so instead of giving them 500 small packages a year while I walk my dog, those will go to Fedex Economy instead. I'm really not a fan of USPS lately!

jade! :3 (@RigbyGender) reportedIssue 1 is expensive on eBay but I’m sure I could find it for less at an indie comic store. I’m gonna be checking out Midtown Comics Times Square this weekend so maybe I’ll find some there.
