    @McCarron I used Swappa to sell my watch. Only issue I had was the buyer ghosted me after delivery. She had already paid, but eBay put a 21 day hold on the payment (so I would have been paid earlier if she had marked it as received).

    Just took down the FB and Twitter pages for my beard oil operation and changed my ebay ID since that was associated with it too. Anybody wanna buy some DIY beard oil supplies?

    @eBay I sent my nurse friend in MT a pair of Dansko shoes. She is a traveling nurse and found out her storage unit back home was broken into and everything including her kids baby pictures was stolen. @ebay #ebaygifts #sweepstakes

    @majornelson @PeterMooreLFC So I was coming back from the VS. System TCG Pro Circuit & our connecting flight was in Phoenix. A couple that had been to the event sat down with us & were so energized it convinced me to take the jump from Sony/Nintendo only to Microsoft (had to buy a 360 from EBay scalper.)

    @paulbensonsucks @MrBrianProctor @NikeLawd It does No business likes to have active complaints with BBB they try to show unfair business practices are being conducted when you comply with basic like tracking proof, signature if you had etc. Forces a better resolution. Chargebacks are eBay issue to ban accounts etc

    If you buy a shitload of PlayStation 5s and try to turn a profit on eBay or Amazon, I literally hope your house burns down with everything inside of it and your insurance doesn’t cover it. You deserve to be keelhauled.

    @eBay For me it was finding a replacement of a plate for my mom of her wedding dishes that had broken. She was so happy to have her complete set again! #ebaygifts, #sweepstakes @ebay

    @WDeanhead @FlightSimToday haven't you heard about sites crashing? can't blame customers with broken sites so stop being a total *** and go back to ebay

    @eBay @AskeBay I've been trying to reach a customer service manager or supervisor for at least a month now. You have no available call center (thanks to covid), and your email service is almost entirely ineffective when trying to solve an issue. (1/2)

    @wingedwolf94 I’ve used PayPal since eBay came out and I’ve had very little issues with them. They never just “close an account for no reason” and often times PayPal is far more secure than most people’s bank accounts. ESPECIALLY when fraudulent transactions are involved.

    @eBay_UK @AskeBay @eBay Hey, can someone please help me with a problem with my account. 3 weeks of chatting with customer support and I still can't change the country setting of my business address...starting to get a little impatient...quick to take fees, slow to solve problems.

    Well now @ebay is forcing me to go to managed payments. May be time to shut it down.

    @gabrieljfelix Yep - usually insides are worth $50-100. Probably could do ok getting broken panels from Facebook and selling the parts on eBay

    8) Fast shipping: Did you know- especially at lower weights- eBay’s shipping discounts (or platforms like PirateShip, more on them later) Means you can get fast shipping (priority Mail, express, first class, etc) as cheaply as the slower options? There’s just one problem.

    @alie_astrocyte @FromPhDtoLife dunno if climactic conditions are different in this case but i have had very little problem with fogging, wearing glasses all pandemic including on extended bike rides, wearing korean air queen masks i buy on ebay & getting a tight seal on the nose bridge

    Sold my old phone on eBay after I upgraded. It had a new battery and screen a few months back, but a few scratches on the case. Described it accurately, it’s suddenly developed a load of issues now the buyer/scammer has received it. FFS, this is why I hate selling tech on eBay

    @Andrew_Reiner I understand that the pandemic set companies back a bit, but it's truly been a terrible launch for this gen for most normal working people. All I see on my Ebay and FB Marketplace feed too is sellers with pictures of thr 5 or 6 consoles they grabbed ready to resell.

    @LindaInChicago @ChrisCuomo That's actually a bargain considering he swore up and down to those hurricane relief workers that they could get TEN THOUSAND on eBay for his signature!

    @eBay Sign me up for next class action lawsuit to shut down this company. I’ll now spend 2 hours trying to deal w/ eBay to get my money back and to clearly point out this account is a scammer.

    I discovered the concept of bidding on $0.99 variant issues on ebay so that's what I was doing for the last hour or so.

    Anyone use Swappa for selling a MacBook before? Or any other service with great experience. I've done eBay with little/no problems but looking at alternatives to research.

    @JuddApatow You can buy this issue on eBay. $10-ish

  • Bookwormnerd94

    @lucidpeachbtw @_lilhades @PlayStation It has nothing to do with that. It has to do with the bots that were made to buy out inventory in seconds and then selling them on eBay for $1000+ dollars. Ebay should take that **** down.

    @AskeBay I cant leave eBay i have tried to. Over the years if I've ever encountered a problem when buying eBay has never helped me final straw came when seller didn't send and I wasn't allowed to leave feedback terrible customer service.

    @PopeyeThe13th Yeah. Terrible practise, eBay and other sites where they're resold need to put a stop to it.
