  • plew_samuel WATCHMAN33 (@plew_samuel) reported

    I’ve already had it. I didn’t mr too much for decades as I was way too busy on the real road. The prices of things have gone absurd! I can buy brass for way less than current plastic prices. I’m only buying on ebay and upgrading if necessary. Part of the reason I quit was dcc conversions were too much for all the engines I have. Strange how computers and entertainment electronics come down in price over time but never trains!

  • explodingwalrus Carl Draper (@explodingwalrus) reported

    there's certain things i miss in @brave that are in Chrome, such as you can't search in youtube or ebay by using the tab key in the address bar. it also really needs an account sign in, an easy sync system

  • TechDaily Wade (@TechDaily) reported

    I take the high fees vs. dealing with eBay “customers” nowadays. >50% of the time I get a bs message after delivery complaining/demanding a partial refund. It’s always a ploy to get an after-sale discount or an attempt to scam. Swappa customers actually buy the phone properly and aren’t awful lol Never had an issue in like 50+ sales.

  • StevenxTCG Steven 💎 (@StevenxTCG) reported

    @EN_2LAK I’ve heard, I didn’t even know that was an issue haha saw eBay listings for like $25+

  • Sneezetooth Nathan C (@Sneezetooth) reported

    We'll see if I can put it up or if the MPN thing will happen though, I hope it's a glitch and ebay fixes it soon to be honest but I can't see my OBFUSCOUS tracks from Sneeze either, although everyone else tells me they can even on the app. Everything strange lately anyway lml

  • BoBoMcgee420 BogsleyDavisJr. (@BoBoMcgee420) reported

    @mistercrisdafur I am having the other issue. I sell an item that people bid on and they immediately cancel the order and eBay allows them to. Then I am SOL. Feebay is beginning to be a ghetto place. Ran by small hats!

  • Felix_From_Mars Marvin Scott Marvin (@Felix_From_Mars) reported

    Updated the eBay app and now the Selling tab is inaccessible: NETWORK ERROR. Good job, guys!

  • TonyGainzzz TonyGainzzz (@TonyGainzzz) reported

    Just learned that I could list my Amazon listings on eBay and fulfill via MCF. Has anyone done this and is it hard to do? Trying to move some slow asins on Amazon and sell them on EBay. I’d appreciate any help on this. 🙏

  • matineeidyll_ Definitlee Ronnie (@matineeidyll_) reported

    @holidayroad_ @animalnitratee_ I always get all my cool stuff secondhand I dunno if the op shops down there are any good but that’s where I’d look, eBay could have potentially goated stuff too but I haven’t looked on there much for clothes yet

  • JamesInFranklin JimmyJabroni (@JamesInFranklin) reported

    @NolteNC Quite a few cheaper ones on eBay.. Not sure if that's an issue though.

  • HeyAaronW reptar (@HeyAaronW) reported

    @yohycanti @CardPurchaser This is the problem with the hobby - people get so offended and take things so personal. Yea sure, unreasonable offers or weird sob stories (my mom is in the hospital so I'm on ebay looking for rock bottom deals) are annoying. Asking doesn't hurt and you're welcome to ignore it

  • BOOMERANG_117 Boomer (@BOOMERANG_117) reported

    @comics_strange I KNOW. I still haven't gotten over it, like I was recently looking at just buying each issue through ebay but having this is so much cooler

  • OG_Vault OG Vault (@OG_Vault) reported

    @PSW7707 @eBay Im having the same problem. You can see notifications from the inbox tab

  • UnauthorizedCBD Cʜʀɪsᴛᴏᴘʜᴇʀ Dᴇʀʀɪᴄᴋ (@UnauthorizedCBD) reported

    @ManCarrying Buy from local comic book store. In $1 or .25 bins, you’ll find everything you need. Or buy runs of the titles you’re into on eBay. Searching for back issues was part of what made reading comics fun back in the ‘90s. Now… trades are awful way to read. Floppies all day.

  • kspowerwheels Ryan Cooper #LNC #LNCWrestling (@kspowerwheels) reported

    I did something like this. I bought a PlayStation 3 game off of eBay and it was broken. It worked somewhat, but would hang up when you tried to load a specific stage. Returned it, got sent a new copy. Same thing. I had a Gamefly account so I rented the game from them and returned the broken eBay copy.

  • whatnews25 Just Me 🦋 (@whatnews25) reported

    @AskeBay Has the issue with UK post offices being able to scan barcodes for eBay deliveries been resolved yet? TIA

  • Felix_From_Mars Marvin Scott Marvin (@Felix_From_Mars) reported

    @eBay the latest update to the app has rendered the Selling tab inaccessible! NETWORK ERROR!! Fix this immediately! This is critical!

  • Siuhu2Siuhu siuhu (@Siuhu2Siuhu) reported

    using platforms like eBay for selling jewelry, what the seller passes on to the buyer -- no middle man here -- I can keep costs down

  • bradyroberts236 HughJayñuss (@bradyroberts236) reported

    @mistercrisdafur eBay needs to crack down on stuff like this. See it daily if not more than once a day

  • shlomiatar Shlomi Atar (@shlomiatar) reported

    btw, you can now get 15tb nvme pcie 4 u.2 drives for sub 1k usd on ebay. You can get 2tb 1dwp (1 full drive write per day, 5 years) for 125(!) usd (again, professional grade server hardware) on ebay. (not even talking about the 2tb/4tb m.2s that are also insanely cheap) it's amazing how far we are with storage, and how affordable all of it is.

  • n_cerbone12 🏴 💛🖤FAAFO Huckleberry💛🖤 🏴 (@n_cerbone12) reported

    @MorganLynne92 I was hoping ‘pharmaceutical ink pens’ was code for experimental nootropics from a rogue Pfizer lab. Turns out it’s just pens. Literal pens. eBay let me down again … 😢

  • extremeconsoles 🕹️ Extreme Consoles 🎮 (@extremeconsoles) reported

    @Lord_Arse All good titles, just off loaded a lot of broken consoles last month on eBay

  • Athazagor Forgotten Koyokoyo 🧛‍♂️ (@Athazagor) reported

    i power limited it to the lowest possible limit because this server is in my bedroom and i dont want noise. i will be also using a tiny quiet fan the performance is crazy good even with the 125W power limit!!! I absolutely recommend everyone to get one of these off ebay lmao

  • Suchagoodog2025 Suchagooddog2025 (@Suchagoodog2025) reported

    Hi @ebay, can you please fix the app, listing items has become A real hassle. I'm not sure who this was for, but it's not for sellers.

  • OG_Vault OG Vault (@OG_Vault) reported

    @PSW7707 @eBay Nope. I've been selling on ebay for over 10 years and never had this problem. I expected it to be fixed by now but nope :(

  • PSW7707 I Don't Even Exercise (@PSW7707) reported

    @OG_Vault @eBay Is this a known @eBay issue? I've never had this happen before... I know you don't work for them, but I'm curious if you've seen this happen in the past

  • Alcarcalimo Alcarcalimo (@Alcarcalimo) reported

    @adonutplays @GuildWars2 Seems to be AWS. ''Struggle Bus riders: Vonage, Destiny, Apex Legends, Starbucks, Yelp, Cox, GitHub, Reddit, Starlink, eBay, Gmail, Southern California Edison, Sparklight, Amazon Web Services, Quickbooks Online, World of Warcraft are experiencing issues.''' - 1hour ago

  • texcritter evie ⚢ (@texcritter) reported

    @trolliglotzer thankfully i think this is only my 2nd issue with a seller in like a decade on the platform but it’s still annoying 🙄 still hasn’t responded to my return request but if he doesn’t respond by friday ebay will step in

  • Felix_From_Mars Marvin Scott Marvin (@Felix_From_Mars) reported

    Had to uninstall the @eBay app to get Selling tab functionality back. Installed the update and again lost access to the Selling tab! This new update has broken the app for sellers! Fix this immediately!

  • Cat_Russell_ Cat Russell 😺 (@Cat_Russell_) reported

    @tylerinternet @ColonnaContempo I think the set I used for this was around 40 bucks on ebay when I got lucky to find the complete set. It'll prolly be a little more expensive buying them 1 at a time. But overall not terrible and probably a similar material cost as what oil painters go through to create
