eBay Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • T_Dempss Ty (@T_Dempss) reported

    @coastalcardcoll @CardPurchaser Not quite sure. One thing I do know is that rigid mailers meet eBay standard envelope requirements and I have never had any issues. Everyone thinks standard envelope means a legit plain white envelope. Buying bulk rigid mailers on Amazon is the way to go.

  • Skazzy3 Skazzy (@Skazzy3) reported

    Actually happy rn. Bought a broken Xbox One X off eBay and fixed it.

  • RayJay7 House1 (@RayJay7) reported

    @eBay Hey, eBay, I'm a light user and never had trouble until recently and finding no easy way to give you feedback. Highly rated seller (92%) sold me fake Airpod Pro Charging case, open box - stated genuine apple but stopped working almost immediately (gift so I wasn't told).

  • NCSLHallofFamer Eric (@NCSLHallofFamer) reported

    @breakoutcards_ This is the crap ebay should be taking down along with the thru the years cards.

  • Photosbyjbtp Jenn (@Photosbyjbtp) reported

    Can't tell if eBay is down for me, or if my Firefox just hates everything today seeing as it hated Twitter earlier too.

  • TonyChr46620117 Noble Sports Cards (@TonyChr46620117) reported

    @triple_e_cards @CSzymkiewicz @CardPurchaser That may indeed be an issue ebay is trying to help with, but the real truth here is that eBay will soon charge a fee for the authentication process. Less returns / whining buyers of higher end cards means eBay keeps more of the fees it collects from sales…

  • Cowboy_Wayz Danny 3dPrinting (@Cowboy_Wayz) reported

    @eBay fix it so people can’t just ruin your account because they want too

  • __gritz__ gritz (@__gritz__) reported

    @Its_Probs_Laura shoot me some pics and let you know if they're worth further investigating but filtering down eBay auctions to just sold auctions gives you an idea.

  • dcsa86 DCSA86 (@dcsa86) reported

    @communitym3at PS- You can also find the same style military issue briefs made by BVD. They're apparently discontinued, but you can find them for sale on Ebay, Poshmark, etc...

  • Silo098 Silo (@Silo098) reported

    @kiro275 @KittyOffRecord So I missed like 3 and 4 out of a 5 issue storyline.. By the time I noticed the comic book store couldn't order it anymore... I bought some off ebay.. but shipping was more than the comics combined for my european ***..

  • PunchitChewie77 Punch It Chewie Press (@PunchitChewie77) reported

    @RebelScumTexan @ThatFisch @SWCozyCoffee Yes they are and they’re a very interesting read. The series is titled “the Star Wars”. I’m sure you can find either the single issues or the trade paperback on eBay or Amazon for a decent price.

  • MadamGojira64 🌺 Megan L 🌺War of Y ARC (@MadamGojira64) reported

    @oniionkniight I got it off of eBay actually, luckily it was a pretty recent issue so there should be more :)

  • asklistfeedy asklistfeedy (@asklistfeedy) reported

    Remember the time we got in trouble for selling expired Ensure on eBay? I'm not allowed to talk to pigeons now, but it was still worth it.

  • thekaceykasem Kacey Kasem (@thekaceykasem) reported

    Honestly, not sure Whatnot is for me. I like the platform, but I feel like I've just broken even on the stuff I've sold after fees. May stick with Mercari and Facebook Marketplace. Maybe throw eBay in there. Just listing stuff SUCKS!

  • DebraColeman4 Debra Coleman (@DebraColeman4) reported

    @kd_6161 @SherryB61474611 @MarkCOL46789178 I stapled it to the pole, I have to replace my flag cause it's faded, so tomorrow or Fri I'm going to put up a new flag but upside down to midterms, Ebay has flags for $4.00 To 5.00 a piece. I usely buy 3 at a time...

  • MagicUdon Wheesht (@MagicUdon) reported

    @eva_kurilova Flush it down the toilet now! Then put the phone on eBay.

  • IAmChannelDark Channel Dark (@IAmChannelDark) reported

    @betamaxx80s @MKnightRetro101 I actually bought a copy a long time ago off eBay only to find someone had gone to the trouble of DVD ripping every episode somehow.

  • BiltmoreGhost Current Mood: NOPE (@BiltmoreGhost) reported

    Does anyone else use eBay? Have you ever had issues with their messaging system? Guy listed something as being 2.7 ounce tin of talc, failed to mention the tin was EMPTY. Sent message. Waited over weekend, no response. After negative review, he responds. Gave 1/5th refund.

  • DJGaryBaldy DJGaryBaldy (@DJGaryBaldy) reported

    @NeilMackay You can pick up decent spec PC's from eBay I bought one the other year and it's a good machine I don't like Apple Mac's I'm a windows guy Stick with Windows 10 as most software has issues with W11

  • ZenfinityDesign ZenfinityDesigns (@ZenfinityDesign) reported

    @TejanoVaquero Munkey just posted a few horses on eBay - might want to find his burner and shut him down...

  • MeridianKoi 「MERIDIAN KOI」(All The Memories 08/22/22) (@MeridianKoi) reported

    @SonikBuster The postal system was running just fine until recently. Everything I've ordered in the last month that came USPS arrived promptly if not earlier than expected both big and small packages (mostly Amazon and Ebay) so idk what's the problem all of a sudden...

  • jlavery522 Jeremiah Avery (@jlavery522) reported

    @KrsJams This reminds me of the line for the Simonsons at HeroesCon. There was a long line of dealers and their friends before we got down to the floor. Walt was doing free sketches. I’ve seen some of them on eBay for hundreds of dollars. Jerks.

  • AllTimeBrewers All-time Brewers (@AllTimeBrewers) reported

    These latest @eBay app updates are terrible

  • kemplorimus gidecon (@kemplorimus) reported

    My biggest problem was not being able to sell on eBay so I decided to sell my shares on the stock market.

  • Munster_Man41 Munster_Man41 (@Munster_Man41) reported

    @0ddsam I don’t think you can get in trouble. I see them all over eBay and Etsy all the time.

  • megatone7 Tone Penley (@megatone7) reported

    @coastalcardcoll @CardPurchaser I love pwe or ebay envelopes. They allow me to get singles easily. The problem is postal carriers not doing their part. I had 2 arrive today. One was scanned delivered, the other wasn't. That's all on the postal carrier.

  • tinasfactbot tina's fun facts, quotes, and cats (@tinasfactbot) reported

    Something fun to think about: the first item sold on EBay was a broken laser pointer.

  • JauntyArtStudio Jaunty (@JauntyArtStudio) reported

    @LowaHero Aww, I'm sorry. Maybe you can track some down on ebay or Amazon?

  • MoenBryan Bryan Moen (@MoenBryan) reported

    @SJSportsCard @onemillioncubs How are these accounts simply not taken down… I realize they will just make another one but Jesus… Fix this @ebay!!

  • JBbyAZ123 JBbyAZ (@JBbyAZ123) reported

    EBay sellers need to stop selling broken/repaired collectibles. Tired of looking at new listings of items in such condition. It's a waist of my precious time. I don't want your garbage.
