Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • lee_ball Lee Ball (@lee_ball) reported

    Picked up a broken 600GB VelociRaptor drive off ebay to cannibalise for my SSD which has never fit in my microserver properly. Tempted to see how broken it is though.

  • SquidsCards Squids Cards (@SquidsCards) reported

    @lasportsfreek Lol I won’t ever go through that trouble on other eBay comps though

  • chucko24 chuck warner (@chucko24) reported

    @garyvee @eBay I could have traded for that card about 30 years ago but instead opted to keep my NFL Pro Set Johnny Holland Error card 🤨

  • landatthebottom nameorusername (@landatthebottom) reported

    Will they be willing to handle paperwork? Nope, they will flog through Ebay or Amazon as theses will be the "deemed supplier". And who supports this VAT change? You guessed it... come on down... Amazon and Ebay. Who pays? The consumer pays.

  • singalen Victor Sergienko (@singalen) reported

    @eBay, your email invites me to review an order that is still being shipped. Please fix to improve your email credibility.

  • MattHowells Matt Howells (@MattHowells) reported

    @nicktheguitar @iandeeley Nick, I’m still have a 2008 Mac Pro which I rescued, broken, from my sisters attic. New psu from eBay , 32gb ram for £40 and an SSD. Bloody thing flies.

  • MegaFerret777 MCN Mike @ #AGDQ2021 (@MegaFerret777) reported

    Bought Yakuza Like a Dragon on eBay, it shows up in a dvd case... You see why I have trust issues?

  • 5sZj2qh9uPNhzHk 白井黒子 (@5sZj2qh9uPNhzHk) reported

    @AskeBay My account has been hacked and suspended ( cannot sign in), how do I contact eBay?

  • CallumLGreen CLG (@CallumLGreen) reported

    Shout out to the kid trying to sell a Broken Teeth shirt on eBay for £50…

  • keithelgin Keith Elgin (@keithelgin) reported

    @JeffKCollins @Ennisthemenace1 It’s the main issue with selling on eBay. I’ve seen people return PSA 10s by claiming it wasn’t as advertised. Ironically, it was also a week after they bought at the peak the card had lost half its value. eBay favors the buyer in that scenario, but they are aware of that issue.

  • Ladewig Scott Ladewig (@Ladewig) reported

    @MarkWillard85 @leavesonthelawn @madnesskingdom I've been selling/buying on eBay since it was AuctionWeb, and my experience is like Mark's. Only had one, maybe two sales that had issues, and as long as you can show you checked all the boxes under the buyer protection policies, eBay has been pretty fair. Maybe I'm just lucky.

  • BOOSTLINKS BOOST LINKS (@BOOSTLINKS) reported

    @BdiZine seller is promoted by eBay instagram account - posted the same seller multiple times in the past with no issues they also have the new authentication guaranteed

  • lampini1 jane strutt (@lampini1) reported

    @BBCNews our current infection numbers are partially down to our lack of proper mask mandate. Anyone who doesn’t feel like wearing one or any crazy conspiracy theorist merely has to pay a couple of quid and get themselves an “exemption lanyard” from Amazon or eBay. Crazy!

  • R_de_Gerber Richard de Gerber (@R_de_Gerber) reported

    @PaulEmbery Did he buy the redundant one from Brussels on ebay hoping it would impress the broken red wall

  • AskeBay Ask eBay (@AskeBay) reported

    @tbhaarlem Hello! Thank you for letting us know. Are you getting error messages when you’re in the checkout page? If you have any saved payment methods (My eBay > Account > Personal Info) for check out, try removing them all and retry your purchase. ~Erik

  • hobomatt Matt R (@hobomatt) reported

    Wow, someone didn't like my counter offer so they spam flagged the listing and ebay took it down...guess I'll try relisting and blocking that ahole

  • dystainak × (@dystainak) reported

    @AskeBay @eBay I went through the steps that you sent me in my DMs but I still can't list an item for over £500. Is there anyway I can fix this issue?

  • Utorak007 eTorik 👌🏿 (@Utorak007) reported

    @TSM_Break Dude I'm so excited, it arrives this week. It'll probably run a bit warm cause ventilation will be an issue but it's gonna look cool as heck. Search on ebay man theres a buncha working PC's up atm.

  • ben_burnes ben_burnes 🎵💖 (@ben_burnes) reported

    I can post it on reverb with the issue I know about, but then I'm not sure how to price it. Maybe eBay for parts? I've had it sitting in my studio for like 6 years and I just need to let it go.

  • jj_leak Josh Leak (@jj_leak) reported

    @Shakes1066 @mythicFOX83 I’ve got a cheap one myself for priming and varnishing. Just bought a £15 one off eBay and has been going strong for 18 months or so with no issues! Also cheap enough to replace if it does eventually die...

  • MinisterofDOOM MinisterofDOOM (@MinisterofDOOM) reported

    @Foone Years later, I'd be working on something and need a part I didn't have (say a high voltage cap to fix an old CCFL LCD or something). I'd run to RadioShack, be disappointed, and order from ebay or aliexpress. But I'd usually much rather make a quick trip and fix the thing.

  • trytohelpyou1 trytohelpyou (@trytohelpyou1) reported

    @PTPetra App capability to pop the door open would be grand. If you still hear the buzzing and what to do the fix yourself, they sell stainless handle gears on ebay.

  • martignetti_a Antony Martignetti (@martignetti_a) reported

    @_mike_rossi_ @TizzleSage @Hobby_Connect Yeah that’s for sure, was a tiny fee for same day payout as well with PayPal. Hopefully it’s just some teething problems and it’s all sorted soon. Bad enough with the 10-15% eBay fees without having to wait for the $ as well

  • stephen29red Stephen29 (@stephen29red) reported from Cincinnati, Ohio

    Hey @eBay I would love love love to know what exactly my 9 day old account that I haven't actually used for anything just got permanently suspended for being "a danger to your community"??? And why I can't get access to anyone to fix it and can't appeal.

  • tbhaarlem Dave Read (@tbhaarlem) reported

    @AskeBay I no longer have an account with eBay & trying to buy as a guest. No error message just said choose a different payment. Found what I wanted on another site & card payment went straight through. Shame for the vendor to miss out on a sale because of your payment systems.

  • AskeBay Ask eBay (@AskeBay) reported

    @Serena_C_West For security reasons, we'll need you to give us a call so we can go over some info. When you get to the part prompting you to login, you should be able to click "new to eBay/having trouble logging in" to bypass that. DM us if you're not seeing it. ~Mikayla

  • DirtyEtzio Nathan Woodward (@DirtyEtzio) reported

    (on their list). Took 3 months, before I got a letter saying I didn't qualify, and gave me a $70 card for the phone, which incidentally I could've sold for $300+ on eBay at the time. Call to figure out why, realize I failed to upgrade to Unlimited plan. No problem, happy to

  • ukbigfootmaster 🔞Ryan -UK size 15👟-birthday 26th of dec🎁🇬🇧 (@ukbigfootmaster) reported

    @Permanentchast1 To be honest I don’t struggle to much anymore thanks to eBay and Amazon offer in quite a wide variety but looking back about 6 years ago it was really hard and would get them shipped from the USA. I now have a problem finding socks that fit thanks to a few brands now stoping XL

  • realmattberry matt (@realmattberry) reported

    @eBay eBay sneaker authenticity is the worst. They won’t let you contact buyer and generated a pre populated shipping label with the buyers name and the authenticators address on the same ticket. Package got lost.. so many issues.

  • CinemaMotions reed (@CinemaMotions) reported

    @GoddesUseless Thanks! I found an eBay listing for 300 so maybe I’ll smooth talk em down to 225
