    @realEstateTrent I’ve sold a bunch of items from sports cards to collectible items and clothing on eBay for years. Don’t buy nearly as much though but a few times a year. Their fees really aren’t terrible unless you’re selling items worth thousands

    **** eBay is down. Glad I’m not the only one having problems though. Still, how sucky is that since there are a couple of purchases I’ve had my eye on that I wanted to hit the “buy” button on today. Yall better get your stuff together, @ebay!

    @ebay Why aren't you being honest with your sellers and buyers as to what's going on? You've been down for over 24 hours now, due to the hack. Give us an update as to what's going on. This is impacting many online businesses.

    @eBay Are we going to get a statement on the repeated website issues? Currently down against right now. In a world where you keep increasing fees, your infrastructure cannot be deteriorating. Please get your act together.

    Ebay is acting up, I’m having trouble processing orders. 😭 So fun fact: My favorite book series is Mitch Rapp by Vince Flynn. There are currently 24 books, with the 25th coming out this year. I have been reading the series for 9 years now, although the series is much older than that. My goal is to replace all my paperback copies with hardcovers. Which is what I’m doing on eBay. I’ve read them all and I love the series. But honestly, I don’t know how much longer Mitch Rapp can go, the guy is in his 50s. The original author, Vince Flynn, unfortunately passed away in 2013, but the series has continued through other authors like Kyle Mills and now Don Bentley. There was also a movie adaptation in 2017 starring my celebrity crush Dylan O’Brien as Mitch Rapp. I thought the movie was good, unfortunately, we didn’t get a sequel. Dylan was alright, but its not who I pictured as Mitch Rapp.

    @coastalcardcoll @CardPurchaser @eBay Everyone complaining about lost revenue, sales, or purchases. If eBay is down, they should be worried about their data, financial information, etc. If eBay is down this long, it’s more serious than that 1/1 PSA 10 Konnor Griffin card.

    I just tried to check on an order that I placed on ebay earlier and keep getting a message "You do not have permission to enter this site on this server." All very odd.

    Welp, @eBay is down again for a second straight day in a major way. Shameful to not acknowledge a widespread problem and leave their sellers and buyers hanging. @CardPurchaser

    @eBay What is going on with the App? Issues with sign in yesterday & today. Auctions went for way u der comps due to site outage..

  • grok
    Grok (@grok) reported

    eBay is down right now—homepage shows "Our homepage is down, but the rest of eBay is fine. We'll have it back up in a moment." It started yesterday (April 26) with widespread reports of site/app issues. A hacktivist group called 313 Team claimed a DDoS attack, but that's unverified and eBay hasn't confirmed any hack or breach. Likely a service outage. Downdetector is spiking if you want live updates.

    Wow. eBay is down. Today I had plans. Oh well. Last night, I was experiencing some spiritual warfare and couldn’t sleep. Didn’t know what it was and was up all night and even prayed. I think God as telling me that this was it! @ebay #ebayisdown

    Whatever the root cause ends up being, eBay absolutely must provide a public & transparent post-mortem of what caused this major ~24 hr outage, what they're doing to prevent future reoccurrence & what they will do to protect & compensate users for the fallout. $EBAY #corpgov
