eBay Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Matt 🦖 (@Zeroslashh) reported@PeakHobby I understand the intent, but this is braindead. There are people who go to shows specifically to acquire in-print product because they can’t anywhere else. They negotiate prices down/ trade towards their purchase instead of paying taxes + shipping + eBay fees. Juvenile decision.
-
JayF (@knightoftism) reported@Mastu_Denton I'm watching this broken unopened cart on eBay, never seen a rev0 yet
-
sugiarto (@megaec070994) reportedYour question misses the point entirely. As a buyer, I am often forced to use the program because many sellers choose it as their only shipping option. I don't have a choice in the 'participation.' But more importantly, why should I accept a broken system that seizes private property? If a courier loses a package, that's an accident. If a hub systematically 'liquidates' 4 rare antiques despite the buyer offering to pay for extra security, that is a failed business model and a violation of consumer trust. I am speaking up so that eBay improves its service for all global collectors, instead of just taking the easy way out by destroying historical items

AVERAGEJOE33 (@AVERAGEJOE33) reportedSpot on he does need help. Put him in touch with @eubankslastpen for some training. He will sort that sleeping problem right out. He'll never again nod off while on the piss. His Ebay account might take a beating though.
-
Alex (@jeter1019) reported4. eBay has told me so many different things as I’ve sat on the phone with them for hours each day only for the last agent to say this is PSA who has to issue the return since I paid for grading their system does not allow eBay to start a return due to failed EBay Authentication
-
Mike Domainer (@MikeDomainer) reported@DomainGoodness @eBay Don't know. Suddenly working and suddenly not working.
-
Tresa🌷 (@IAmGiGiIs) reportedI have a dumbed down seller on ebay trying to convince me that all corn is gmo and that I can no longer buy candy without gmo bioengineered corn syrup in it. PEOPLE REALLY HAVE BOUGHT THE FARM HAVENT THEY?🤡
-
NEOAethyr (@konigssohne) reported@Carnivol @LoveRetroBTW 🫡 Reminds me when I saw the 16mm ver on ebay for $200, I'm kicking myself for not crawling down that rabbit hole.
-
Jane (@Jane95475959158) reported@ToilerOnTheSea2 @AwakenedOf I got kicked off because I refused to do a video selfie to prove I was a real person despite having an account for 25 years, paying for advertising etc. They keep trying to tempt me back and it's not working. I just hope I can keep access to ebay which provides me with income.
-
Betsy Soto (@BLySoto) reported@RagweedCapital Down on the biggest sale day of the week for auctions, Sunday. This past Sunday was also right after the NFL draft, also right after Topps Chrome Football was released. One day down..it already affected earnings for sellers and eBay. And same thing again today!
-
Oli Jonsson (@eBayandEcomm) reportedEBay was down yesterday. My Shopify sales jumped that day, so in the end in cost me nothing, Don’t rely on one platform if you can help it. Leaves you very vulnerable to things you can’t control
-
Nikki E (@nobility_llc) reportedIf he’s dead Cierra I would chop off your head. I don’t know how to do that. Can you order one on eBay. Maybe just lie down on the street and let a car run you over afterwards too. Polite. A bullet.
-
Ohio Antique (@ohioantique) reportedEbay has been having an insane amount of issues over the past 48hrs; I guess a data center is kaput and the bot that rate limits the site is messed up or something... making it hard to run our shops, that's for sure.
-
onemillioncubs (@onemillioncubs) reportedThe entire eBay Live platform is down. This eBay outage is killing me.
-
Askin Temel (@Askintml) reportedyou're paying for clicks but your images can't convert. product photos are doing 80% of the selling. most brands spend 5% of their effort on them. eBay. Airbnb. DoorDash. UberEats. Deliveroo. GrubHub. different industries. same finding: → one good image beats zero images on conversion → a second image lifts it again → Airbnb hosts with pro photos earn up to 20% more → high-quality menu photos drive more orders. every app. every time. photos are not decoration. they are the conversion event. but here's where most brands get stuck: → designers cost a fortune → photoshoots take weeks → manual design doesn't scale across SKUs → bad visuals quietly kill your CTR — and you never see it in the data you keep buying traffic your images can't close the sales. same product. same ad spend. worse result. the fix isn't more budget. it's better visuals, faster, on repeat. → test variations weekly, not yearly → iterate on data, not taste → treat every product photo like a paid ad creative here's what i put together: → the data behind why visuals decide conversion → how to produce product images without a designer → the workflow brands use to ship 20+ variations a week want it? 1/ comment "VISUALS" 2/ like this post i'll send it over. (make sure we're connected)

LH44 8 (@clipperfive) reportedHey @eBay can you fix your standard envelope System. I keep getting R*PED by buyers taking advantage of when tracking shows nothing… but other orders from the same day say they got delivered. Please you guys are pushing so many sellers away
-
Tony Yantosca (@TonytheProphet) reported@eBay What is going on????? Your bidding system is down!!!!
-
OmegaDad (@TheRealOmegaDad) reportedI wish @eBay would help out on those eBay labels…pretty much 95% of the issues I deal with as a seller are related to said labels. They get lost all the time, tracking never picks up, buyers get upset, the e post office erroneously sends them back for additional postage and on and on.

Mikey Vintage (@dog913101) reportedeBay down again🤦🏻
-
Alexandra Parsons (@AlexandraP43820) reportedIs @eBay still down for people? I still can't access it. @eBay_UK have you tried switching off and on again? Or giving the batteries a good rub? #ebay #ebaydown #cantbuystuff
-
LeosCardz (@YoitisLeo) reported@Jylesss @eBay Of course eBay should take it down

THFC_Theo 🏴🇳🇱 (@Rising_Goats) reported@eBay please hurry and fix your app I'm trying to buy something and I'm on a deadline
-
kentuckyfriedplus 🇺🇸🦅 (@kentuckyfriedp5) reported@johnennis @amazon buying 3rd party is touch and go, as I don’t get the impression that amazon vets them out coosely (ebay has a similar problem). I’m sorry you’re going through all this.
-
Megan Nyvold (@MeganNyvold) reportedI thought I got banned from eBay again but the whole platform was down today
-
Uno (@reverseuno91) reported@mnchies Problem with investing in cards is liquidity I had a basketball/baseball collection and it took me forever to offload + with the eBay fees and post office trips it simply wasn’t worth the time & effort… It became a tedious pain in the *** even as my collection did 2-3 x…
-

-
W (@TheLotLawyer) reported@SteeloAndKri I think its a problem of people not understanding the value of time to people with money. Yeah he could have spent dozens of hours listing, selling, and shipping those cards but he's got better **** to do. I shut my ebay down 2 years ago because i dont have time for it.

AKAhamradio (@AKAhamradio) reported@PM0wnu @M0KPH @eBay_UK There have been reports eBay UK has been taking down listings for legal CB radios

cats collectibles tcg (@Catscollecttcg) reported@KT_Commenter @poke_emilys @NewAgeCardKings EVERYONE uses eBay/tcgplayer comps I don’t see someone at a card show going “market is $50 but TCGplayer takes 10% so I’ll give you $45” Every day I login onto this app I swear we get dumber as a people.
