eBay Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Akers 🦅 (@PochFan) reported@osufan125 @PenPlays_ @LEGO_Group If they desperately want those figures, they go for cheap on eBay. They can also buy regular toys of those characters. I really don’t see the issue with this set. It’s not the hill us LEGO fans should be dying on.

Lodoghir (@Lodoghir) reported@EdLudlow Ask why he famously said: "You won't find us talking a big game, making a bunch of lofty promises or telegraphing our strategy to the competition." And yet is now doing exactly that by shouting the ways eBay can fix the company. Is he overconfident? Or does he know something?

Stay Predictable (@staypredictable) reported@lucky_425056 Can’t hold for that long below conversion price of $28-$29. EPS will be too big and p/e too low. If no eBay deal then cash pile would be $13-$14B by 2028. If eBay deal, then EPS goes up even more for the combined entity compared to now. $1.34 TTM EPS currently is 16x. Insane low with such cash buffer to accompany it. $1.70+ by year end is probable. That brings it down to 13x or less at this price. And a cash pile over $10B to accompany it by then. If shares are bought back then that EPS grows even more. And 13x becomes even less than 10x. It’s just not sustainable.

Wolfgang Hauser 📯 (@badnerland9) reported@eigen_moomin It's not a German problem but an American: you expect a normal average processing to receive maximum rating on a 5 level scale. So no way to reward better than average or (restaurant) high value-price ratio. Same **** with eBay.

nomad (@LudisCharta) reported@ComicDaveSmith who cares man I knew this administration was cooked when I still can’t use ebay or PayPal because I didn’t get vaccinated there’s no real push to make anyone right who was wronged It’s just you vs the world and it’s always that way can’t control these ******* in power and they have sold us out a very long time ago and they don’t know what to do to actually fix it is more and more people become sicker each day from the food and culture

Don Greer (@theDonGreer) reported@ClimateAudit I doubt it as well, but if you're gonna tilt at that windmill, it seems to me the number of windmills left to tilt with marches on to the horizon. :) Seriously, most meme coins are just a little slimy, but again, I don't think the government should ride in and save the day. There might be actual utility there, but it needs to be discovered, and clamping down before that discovery mechanism has time to work seems like the wrong answer. The same argument could be made against OTC trading of penny stocks. Would you want to make that illegal as well? And what about Meme stocks? GME was all but left for dead until the WallStreetBets crowd poured money into the market for it. One of those guys is now the CEO, and not only has he gotten the company's financials under control, but he's also actively looking at acquiring eBay. Cutting off something that sounds questionable before it has time to come to fruition can lead to serious negative consequences, and I personally don't think we have finished playing out the bitcoin/altcoin drama yet. YMMV

Grant Wescott (@GrantWescott) reported@eBay I already did that, eBay. Read the damn post before firing off another useless reply. Your customer support pulled the same incompetent bullshit; ignored the actual issue and answered a question nobody asked.

Parenting Mishmash 𓊧 ۗۗۗۗۗ💜 (@ParentMishmash) reported@JamieMc46313002 @ScooterCasterNY An AirBoss PAPR off eBay is a good option for babies, Zimi 95S or 7711 are good options for toddlers and school kids, see my pinned tweet for more good kids options, but the problem is they are all from other countries due to NIOSH’s focus solely on adults

Phil | Rentier Digital Automation (@rentierdigital) reporteda $43.5M app raised money on Phoebe Gates' name and a cap table full of celebrities. then Bloomberg found it opening hidden tabs at checkout, injecting affiliate codes, claiming commissions it never earned Phia called it a bug. the code said otherwise feature flag: live on iOS where users won't see it, off on Chrome desktop where they would. that's not a bug you patch, that's a design choice you make once you already know what gets caught last-click attribution runs a $13B market. whoever clicks last before payment gets paid, whether they earned it or not. a browser extension sits in the perfect spot to fake that last click on nearly every purchase cookie stuffing used to send people to prison. Shawn Hogan did 5 months for it at eBay. Brian Dunning got 15 months. max sentence runs 20 years under federal wire fraud law eBay jailed a man for this exact scheme. now it just funds it through eBay Ventures on Phia's cap table Honey did the same thing bigger. PayPal owned it, worth $4B, until MegaLag's video showed how it stiffed creators. Chrome lost 6-8 million users. Google banned the practice in March 2025 it hasn't slowed down i build and ship daily. Claude Code, Codex, whatever ships fastest. SaaS, tools, automations. ⭐ if AI can build it, i've probably broken it first. what works → link in bio

bad robot ventures (@foxenflask) reportedLet's do some napkin math. $GME currently owns ~10% exposure in eBay. Exercising to get all in stock would cost $2-3B depending on price, leaving them ~$6.5B cash after exercise. So: 10% of eBay + $6.5B cash. They also have a $20B letter for debt/equity from the same dealer manager (TD) that raised their convertibles. Add that: 10% of $EBAY, $6.5B cash, $20B hybrid debt. They also have a little over 2 billion shares they're authorized to issue, which add up to another $44B fully issued at today’s price. Adding that: 10% of eBay, $6.5B cash, $20B hybrid debt, $44B in stock. Then there's another $25-50B in likely equity access from SWFs and private investors at post-money valuations. Call it $20B hybrid equity for now. Running total: 10% of eBay, $6.5B cash, $20B hybrid debt, $20B hybrid equity, $44B in stock. eBay is a $50B company with ~450M shares issued, doing TTM ~$11B in revenue with around TTM ~$1.9B of net income. GameStop is a $10B company with ~450M shares issued, doing TTM ~$3.8B in revenue with around TTM ~$740M in net income. I should mention that 42.9% of existing eBay shareholders already voted against this board (Prop 4 in the recent ARS)? For a Schedule TO, he needs a minimum of 51% tendered. After that, he can buy the rest on the open market to get to 100%. It's a matter of when and not if. And when it happens, I doubt he needs to issue more than 1 billion GameStop shares, given all the other capital lined up. That leaves a combined entity with 1.5B total shares outstanding and a $60B market cap post-transaction. $60B ÷ 1.5B shares = $40 a share. I don't care how much cash or debt is on the balance sheet, it's a $60B market cap company with 1.5B shares. That's $40. More shares, lower price. Fewer shares, higher price. GameStop is trading at $22 right now. When the stock is at $40 warrants will be worth around $10-12 depending on when* the deal goes through. Warrant expiry can be extended and strike can be lowered. I don’t have a crystal ball but once again I must ask, what am I missing?

Justin Scott (@jrs_dev) reported@Pokemon The Pokemon Center website is the biggest let down. I made it through your queue twice, only to have the website kick me out, twice! So instead of your items going to someone who wants to collect the 30th anniversary sets, the items are being scalped up and are on eBay for $500 and ETB. As big of a company as you are, you should be doing better.

Renee 🪳🎰 (@DigestivoGraham) reported@SOCKZXX SOOO CUTE 😭 I’ve been trying so hard not to collect the precious moments dolls and you’re doing terrible things to me (I went hunting on eBay immediately the other day when you posted about her)

Reiley Jude Martin (@ReileyJude) reported@tillytildaa I ended up searching for months on EBay for a working, blue 2008 legit not counterfeit Motorola Razr flip. Eventually found one, and had to unlock it from the original 2008 carrier and find an OEM charger for it, but after researching for a long time and trying a bunch of different ideas, I realized you can’t get service for it anymore. It only takes 3G and no one sells that anymore. Even US Mobile which was the last ones to offer it conveniently closing it a couple months prior to when I got the flip phone off EBay. So all I can do is just scroll around the settings on it. Theoretically you could get service for it, it would just take a lot of engineering, patience, and knowledge. You’d have to get the original OS Code to rewrite the OS to understand 5G signal, because just retrofitting the flip with a 5G signal receiver isn’t enough, it wouldn’t understand how to read it. And you’d have to compensate with the higher power requirements for 5G with a different battery. And after doing all of that, and it theoretically works, you’d have to spend months testing it and tweaking things like for example “what would happen if I had someone send a text of an emoji to this, how would it display, could it even display” or “what if someone tried to FaceTime call the flip, how do I deal with that?” You’d have to spend months quality tweaking it to interface with modern technology. But all of this is only possible if you get the original OS Source code so you can write your own OS to understand 5G, and that source code is probably locked down deep in the Motorola vault. If they even still have it that is

pi pudding 🌺🌊 (@pudd1ngandp1) reported@funkibeast i got them all as they were being released on the glitch store over time - i got the set boxes but if you're looking for the ones that aren't available anymore, i've heard ebay, vinted, and mercari (which i think requires a proxy) are your best bets

Rich Honor (@BhonerRich6969) reported@Hot_Pepper76 I was doing atmospheric chemistry research at the time Mel was filming Apocalypto in the rain forest of Mexico. Our team was staying in the same Veracruz hotel as Mel, his family and his crew were in. Mel and his crew were touring the bars every night along the Gulf coast near Veracruz and we ran into them often but I totally left them alone as some of my crew members drooled all over him. In my spare time, I was climbing volcanoes across Mexico and doing a photographic project, shooting windows and doors on the old buildings of Veracruz. One Saturday morning, my camera and I were headed out of the motel to explore and Mel ran past me to the valet. He dropped an ID and I grabbed it and yelled at him but he was undeterred. As he got into the driver's seat, I put the ID against the window of the passenger's door. He flipped me off and drove away like a bat out of hell. I put the ID in my wallet, planning to drop it off at the hotel desk. Or maybe sell it on eBay... About 20 seconds later, he drove up to me like a bat in a more polite hell and rolled down his window, saying: "I'm such an *******." I gave him the ID and he drove away like a bat out of Hollywood Hell. Truth, in all details.

Rueda (@ruedaoj) reportedHonestly I believe Ryan wants the deal done before GTA 6 comes out , I believe off the NFT market place they beta tested wallets created and infrastructure they had in place already with the deals they had with multiple web 3 games , he already has the frame work , eBay would 100 x the outcome of this work especially with the frenzy GTA 6 would create. @ryancohen already has the monopoly on gaming past with retro gaming consoles and $GME stores still holding physical software and hardware , he will having future gaming in lock down with the digital market place he already has created once again $EBAY just 100x this with the number of sellers and amount of inventory. He wants to deal done before November 2026.

Tony Jacob | FindaClip.com (@tonjkb) reportedDavid Sacks Reveals How the PayPal Mafia Got Started —"They saw the founding generation at PayPal as just a problem—just a bunch of cowboys they couldn't control." David: "To be honest, that's why PayPal has stagnated. As soon as it was acquired back in 2002, they basically blew out all the founders, all the founding DNA, and it was just kind of run by consulting types. You got to remember at that time it was acquired by eBay, and Meg Whitman had worked at Proctor and Gamble and Disney, and she spent like eight years at Bain. It was a very corporate mindset. Among all the internet companies of that era, it was definitely the most corporatist, and they saw the founding generation at PayPal as just a problem—just a bunch of cowboys they couldn't control. They made no effort to retain them, and I think they were kind of relieved when they all left. That's what created the PayPal mafia; normally in an acquisition, you'd lock up all the talent, but in this case, they locked them out. Jason: "They were like, 'These guys are hard to manage, change the keys.'" David: "I've said for a long time it's a misnomer to call it the PayPal mafia. It's really the PayPal diaspora." "Our homeland was taken over and they burned our temple and then kicked everybody out." "And that's why the whole PayPal mafia got started with all those companies."

Jim Liu (@jiahanjimliu) reported$ASTS / $IREN: Timing of Dilution Many great operators do not time the market and their timing eventually averages out. In fact, many great businesses get their opportunity in an in recession when incumbents get shaken up and dilute despite low market conditions. 1. Amazon, Bookings, eBay, Apple (Jobs round 2) diluted significantly in 2001 2. Tesla diluted significantly in 2009. Ford, BOA, Citigroup diluted to survive during this time and made spectacular returns off the bottom. Bezos, Musk, Jobs were the greatest operators of our times. Not saying AST or IREN is Bezos, Musk, Jobs level but even the greatest operators aren’t able to dilute when stock is at ATH because opportunities and crisis occur when stock or overall market is down which is when dilution is most needed. Dilution is infuriating during down times but looking back even some of the greatest operators do it.

Joe Williams (@JoeWill54605587) reported@koolaidJimJones @ThunderChicken @GarandThumb1 I can swap a Mossberg ejector with a flathead screwdriver in a few minutes and have no issue finding a new OEM replacement part. I'm aware that there is a company on ebay that is selling newly manufactured 870 ejectors and parts but have you had the pleasure of trying to fit one?
