@StalkingPMS It’s literally an eBay display error that’s been present since the dawn of time. It’ll always display as the full sticker price when a buyer send an offer to seller I believe

@silvertrade Buddy, have you checked ebay auctions recently? There are NO deals to be had on silver/sterling. And actual auction sites are even worse - going for WAY over spot. There will be NO PROBLEM with bullion hoarders holding their stack. THEY WANT MORE!

@LFGSixers @eBay @CardPurchaser Yea and you took what I said out of context…I can dumb it down for ppl like you who take everything literally. I agree ppl pay what they believe it’s worth…that’s not always the case when ppl try to sell the card for what they know it’s worth tho…

Well I accidentally made what can be a HUGE bidding error on ebay. I accidentally deleted the decimal point on my $8.50 bid making a $850 bid.

@SlimSugar @Etsy I've used it as a price guide for years, sold items not items listed! I'd even contact losing bidders with a link to my ad! Ebay shut that down when the world went fake privacy mad!

@AniseNot eBay has gotten me the most sales. Poshmark is super slow to sell. Depop may have low fees but I didn’t love the platform.

@NickMcGinley1 @HazelAppleyard Uh…yeah…bought it in Burnet, TX. Just this past Friday. I think it was a Death of Superman issue. Perfect shape…bagged and boarded. Looked it up on eBay when we got back to the hotel. People selling it for $1500 and up.

@rzprtmhyk @kafklore Aiya, that rust remover spray looks magical! It's a real product (available on sites like eBay/AliExpress) that chemically dissolves rust and applies a shiny coating. Results vary by surface—test it safely first. Got rusty stuff to fix?

@AskeBay I am having trouble receiving assistance from EBay regarding a Buyer. Any attempts I’ve made to for assistance from eBay have been met with automated responses. How can I get assistance from a live person?

@AskeBay A 50p pence coin as shown on ebay of which I and many like me have the collections, and are possibly worth little over £50. To ask for £thousands is a criminal act, and on your webpage! I can only think that I should take this issue to someone who cares!

@AskeBay Yes, communicating with buyers when it is our responsibility but when we are relinquished from those responsibilities it’s not on us to give the buyer a solution. I can’t act on behalf of eBay for failings in Global Shipping delivery windows. The item will miss the delivery window. The buyer should get his shipping costs refunded to him. I advise all my buyers now to contact eBay. I hold no responsibility in the delivery of these goods. If they’re damaged in transit, it’s eBay’s fault. If they’re lost in transit, it’s eBay’s fault. Buyers have not been clearly informed on what happens in any of these events and immediately jump down our throats. I can’t provide these customers any support on a service I physically have no say over. If eBay takes responsibility of delivery take responsibility over buyer communications and providing them aftercare. The help forums are pointless very few read them. It’s apparent in the amount of messages we receive from customers. We babysit buyers on how to use eBay because eBay have no clue how to communicate with them. Most of our buyers believe we pay no fees. Why is this? Because every single advert states ‘sell for free’. The levels of incompetence within the marketing team is rather embarrassing. Never forget buyers and sellers are your customer. I expect better from eBay for the amount I pay eBay. 9 times out of 10 the customer is always right.

@eBay_UK @ebay Hi! I'm trying to reach a human being to talk to - I managed to create a customer support case to solve a problem with a blocked account but I haven’t heard back since 15 Dec. Any idea on how to call someone? Thanks!!

@InstaMntalMasta @CardPurchaser I had a similar issue with some old listings of mine - an ebay update messed with the shipping dimensions and caused them to glitch and told buyers I didn't ship to them. Reach out to the seller, they probably don't even know that there is a problem.

@1lalo312 @eBay @CardPurchaser How do you KNOW what it's worth? The crux of the issue is that you have a perceived value that may or may not be reality. If ebay comps are lower and you're getting offers lower than your perceived value is likely wrong.

Ask eBay
(@AskeBay) reported
@KyleMansbridge @KyleMansbridge Your core responsibility as a GSP seller is to ship the item to eBay’s Hub. Once your item is received and accepted at the hub responsibility for international delivery, customs, and final delivery transfers to eBay’s shipping partners. If an issue arises after the package is processed at the GSP facility (e.g., customs, loss, damage, international transit delays), eBay—not you—handles it. Buyers are directed to contact eBay for updates, claims, or delivery issues beyond this point. You are not expected or required to provide updates or solutions for any shipping problems that occur after arrival at the GSP hub.

@CasasCounselor @CardPurchaser @eBay Bc ppl who do it for a living know they’re paying 80% max and then the auctions bring down the value more than that at times

@AskeBay Still no €500 payout and still no explanation from @eBay. My account (login: davarson) was deleted/blocked, despite buyers confirming problem-free delivery. Next step: escalating to EU channels — ECC-Net , Luxembourg CSSF , GDPR/Data Protection authority.

.@eBay is literally overrun with fraudulent & counterfeit products, yet they just shrug "not our problem". It actually is. One of the biggest responsibilities you have is to protect those who CHOOSE to spend their money on your platform. You're failing MISERABLY. #EbayFraud

@jmdagdelen @gingasvr we should call out (and i filed a report to ebay and did a DM for internal team to look out) are these listing manipulations done on ebay, amazon, and aliexpress where the majority of items in the drop down are NOT the item of the title and the price show up substantially lower

@Me43823499 @CardPurchaser Sometimes when you have a lot of inventory mistakes are made. Particularly if you attend shows and sell on eBay. We would have messaged you first to let you know the error before canceling the order and I believe all legitimate sellers would!

@AskTravelers I buy our phones and laptops broken on eBay and I remanufacture them. All of the time, the time and date is off in the bios Ill take a picture in 2025 but the metadata can say anything. Even 1969. This is a dead issue and you denied us because of this. Treated me like a liar too
