♡ vanilly ଘ( ᴗ͈ ᴗ͈)ഒ (@manglecwutexoxo) reportednot sure if this is allowed here (will take down if not) but considering all the toy items have skyrocketed and some are going down but posey and avrilla are still high, is it worth buying the codes off ebay? i currently have 1.2mil but it's gonna take forever to farm the rest...

Grok (@grok) reported@SeanieQdup @ShiningScience The story is real but from 2018, not recent. Jackson Oswalt (Memphis, TN) built a homemade fusor (inertial electrostatic confinement device) in his bedroom using eBay parts, inspired by a TED Talk. He achieved deuterium fusion at age 12 (technically, just before turning 13), earning a Guinness World Record as the youngest to do so. The FBI visited once with a Geiger counter to check for radiation leaks as a safety precaution—no raid, no issues found. The viral post and image sensationalize it; fusors like this are a known amateur science project, not "star power" fusion.

Will (@wiggleee_w0rm) reported@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

jane (@jlrynkms) reportedbeing at the mercy of ebay sellers for a printed issue of runway magazine just because i don’t live in the US… GOD I’M GONNA KILL MYSELF
-
Jeff Stein (@MightGaineDX) reported@ToolalaJ Shopping on Ebay for Transformers is terrible these days. Ever seller "knows what they got" and buyers paying top dollar for broken/damaged toys with no accessories and sticker damage.
-
Havoc_Actual 🇺🇸 (@Havoc_XXI) reported@premiercards_2 @eBay @Topps Good to know such a large card account is a complete ******. I simply said you should be upset at Topps in the first place. If I have anything going to an authenticity check, I always put it in a one-touch and I’ve never had an issue. Have even requested it from numerous sellers and never had an issue but by all means keep crying about it and being a d-bag. 👍🏾

Leo (@Leo_R_UK) reported@Samaytwt Look you can buy a decent second hand i5 i7 server put Linux on it with 32gb or more for less than £200 all you need to do is terminal into that to code from and you can do that from a 2012 MacBook Air for £60 from eBay. Coding it 2026 shouldn’t be expensive!

mary (@PlsCallMeMary) reportedthe way I literally know no one from LA or NY and there’s no way in hell I’m spending a couple of hundred dollars on ebay so I’M NEVER GETTING THAT RUNWAY SPRING ISSUE IS MY VILLAIN ORIGIN STORY
-
Julien Azul (@SuenosAzules32) reported@premiercards_2 @eBay But it got to you safely right? What’s the problem here bud???
-
💕Leez💫🌈 (@Pokerlove00) reported@eBay what is going on? As a seller I am wondering why it feels like eBay is trying to control us more and more. You are forcing us to send to an authenticator, the recent update was terrible to the point that sales have dropped?Customer service is impossible. What the hell @eBay
-
schrader (@tonyaces) reportedThe amount of photos/post of cards being damaged leaving eBay authentication process is pretty wild. It feels like one of the bigger issues you see right now. Very expensive cards being destroyed. My understanding is seller loses the money and gets a damaged card returned.
-
LB❤️ (@_Luckyladybug) reportedUgh, I’m so sick of dumb *** hoes. Like eBay the fuckkkkkkkkk all these ******* need to be put down. Got damn.
-
Jen McCready | Under The Influence (@JenMcCready) reported@rohit4verse Consumer demand is down all over the place. My mom has a eBay storefront and has sold antiques/vintage jewelry for over 20 years now on their platform and she told me yesterday that sales are non-existent. People have stopped dropping off dry cleaning (expected with all the layoffs), and restaurants are struggling to keep open.
-
Grok (@grok) reported@damselsimi @dmmsell This viral video promotes a powdered drain cleaner like "Gold Drain" or "Wild Tornado" (sold on Amazon/eBay). You pour it into clogs, add water, and it foams massively via a chemical reaction (often peroxide-based) to agitate and break down organic gunk like hair (protein/keratin), grease, and algae. Real products exist and can help mild clogs, but the dramatic explosions are edited for clicks—real results depend on the blockage and aren't instant magic. The Japanese poster’s doubt makes sense; it's hyped but not fake.

Richard 🍷 💔☀️ (@Richard_Colo) reportedeBay proving yet again why they are the worst company to sell on! Buyer opens a claim that they didn’t get their package, tracking shows delivered. eBay agrees and says they got it. Customer opens chargeback for empty item eBay says customer is right! What @eBay is terrible!
-
sticky1mate (@sticky1mate) reported@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
-
The Hot Rock (@aebgiven) reportedHas 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!
-
Nico78 (@Nico78897) reported@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.

Tyler Rhoney (@Sw0lleyMammoth) reported@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 :)
-
Yorkshire Jamie (@YorkshireJam) reportedI wish people like @eBay @eBay_UK would stop changing ****. Trying to list an item with MY chosen method of postage isn’t allowed now? Wtf is going on with the world. Stop fixing things that aren’t ******* broken.

El Bucci (@bigbucciband) reported@JayBobSons Brother I am a top rated eBay seller, I’ve had 100s of people with 0 feedback buy and I’ve had no problems. Plenty times I sold slabs and seen them being posted by a celebrity and more. Scared money don’t make no money, it’s just facts.
