Polsia (@polsia) reportedBig sellers have repricing armies. Independent sellers have spreadsheets and guesswork. Built CompeteBox to fix that. AI monitors Amazon, eBay, Walmart prices and sends you a Slack alert when a price move wins the Buy Box. Stop leaving money on the table. Live soon.

🇬🇧BlueControl🇬🇧 (@blue_control69) reported@RsGimble @SkyNews You are correct. As an eBay seller, a lot of my items are sent with evri and I haven't had an issue since I started 12 months ago. Back in their early days they were fairly unreliable, from my experiences they have turned that around.

S Saito (@shawnsaito) reported@PlentyOfPivots @CardPurchaser If it’s not going through the eBay global program I would be very leery. That’s the only way I sell international and I haven’t had any issues with it!

A Floyd (@Mrshoujo) reported@jammyfreezerpop Could be the power supply going flaky. Had that & just bought another off eBay. Problems stopped.

Loud Luxury (@QuietLuxury89) reported@Doctor_HooLock @Jsmith_13_ @theTSupdates I have an account on Ebay and it's not in my searches. I'm in the US so I believe my searches are limited, so it could be an overseas seller. I generally don't see listings from the UK, Italy, etc. It's possible someone in a foreign country is selling it or it was taken down.

Michael Wright (@boogieman1961) reportedHey @eBay, how much longer are the issues with creating/updating listings going to go on? It's been days now. For the fees you charge, things should get fixed so you can charge more ridiculous fees.
-
Alex Romano (@A_Rom23) reported@asalovey96 Totally - I’d trust him over max for sure. He clearly knows ball and looked up the comps lol ebay needs to fix that - if you have a decline on messages about lower prices you should be terminated from the platform when you’re at 10% of asking lol

Mr. Puma 2072 ن (@Puma2035266) reported@LZBataan Saw a story about a Gen Zero that was bitchin' that she could hardly affort rent much less buy a house. Her friend's father, a banker, sat down with her and went thru her monthly expenses. She had a 3 bedroom apartment, lived by herself, 2 iPhones and was paying over $400 a month for service, 5 streaming services, nearly $200 a WEEK at a salon, $400 a month Door Dash/Uber Eats/etc., Over $700 a month on clothes/jewlery. $2700 a month credit cards... you get the idea. He set up an back account for her and she get $200 a week spending/gas money, He found her grandma's cookware in the cupboards, gave her a cookbook, put 90% of her clothes and jewlery, some of which she had never worn, on ebay. Got rid of the extra phone and streaming, once a month to the salon, moved her into a studio apartment. His wife taught her how to grocery shop and gave her cooking lessons. Last I heard, 3 years later, she had nearly $20K in the bank. I told her that when she gets to $75K, he'll help her find a condo.

Wilder (@_W1ldeR_) reported@Collect It’s not even that bad of a fix nowadays, pretty sure you can buy the capacitors on eBay as a kit…

Nick Dodd (@nickdodd) reported@PaddyTofu eBay has a lot of terrible shipping collaborations. Probably the worst single e-tailer business ever created. Great gems on ebay, horrible RNG.

Airlim (@Mainstreamlive) reportedPutting things up on eBay that I don’t really want to but I need things. If I get the funds then I’ll take them down but for now let’s stick them on the old internets

Holly Miglio (@MiglioHoll33605) reported@GeriPerna I bought one on eBay. Drives my son nuts. I read that writing things down strengthens the memory/mind connection. Besides, they're so convenient (when you're at home).

tridentxan (@tridentxan) reported@Damnitbobbywhy @Jesster017 @funkofinderz There’s more than enough. The problem is scalpers knowing how to bypass online limits while also using stupidly expensive bots and paying off employees and vendors for backdoor access and/or insider info to know when they should camp outside the store for the good stuff. Not to mention the employees and vendors keeping restocks from customers and buying it themselves. It’s just all getting bought up by people who don’t know anything at all about Pokemon except what Charizard, Pikachu, Gengar, and the Eeveelutions are. The core problem is that there isn’t any anti-botting measures and no one reporting backdoor / information bribery schemes, let alone the existence and implementation of ID verification by DL number. It’s sitting in Edgar and Kyle’s garages in boxes 4-5 stacks high and wide as they post them up on marketplace and eBay.

dj dixon (@MGCINC) reported@ryancohen / eBay Acquisition Update (July 2026) GameStop CEO Ryan Cohen is still all-in on acquiring eBay. • May: Unsolicited $56B bid ($125/share, 50% cash + 50% stock). eBay board rejected it as “neither credible nor attractive.” • Late June: Cohen scrapped his own proposed $35B+ performance pay package so leadership stays 100% focused on GameStop ops + the eBay deal. • Early July: Fresh interviews (including full RALLI ROOTS sit-down) where he doubles down on the vision — turn eBay into a real Amazon competitor using GME’s 1,600 stores for fulfillment, authentication & more. “ half cash half stock” #gme

Andy Jones Esq (@artistsbox) reportedAn update on the Nike HyperAdapt shoes I purchased through eBay. After a lot of back and forth, eBay has sided with me and is issuing a full refund. I want to give them credit for that. eBay's Authenticity Guarantee for sneakers is a very good service, but my purchase presented them with an issue they aren't used to encountering. The shoes were authentic. The problem was that they didn't work. The Nike HyperAdapt is an electronic self-lacing shoe, and the pair I received had a defective charging and battery system. The shoes passed authentication because they were genuine, but authenticity and functionality are two very different things. That created a situation their normal process wasn't really designed to handle. It took time and persistence to work through it, but I appreciate that eBay was ultimately willing to look beyond the normal policy, recognize the unusual circumstances, and extend the refund. Good policies are important. But so is knowing when a situation doesn't fit neatly inside them. I'm thankful eBay was willing to make that adjustment and reach the right outcome.

Tony James (AJG) 🏳️🌈 (@GamblesterTony) reported@TheTereDie @GamingCentral26 Those prices need to be lowered down. If that’s eBay that’s doing this screw that crap.

Klocko Fett (@KlockoFett) reported"This is a way of selling" No, retard. Ebay is a way of selling. This is throwing your "product" up through an open window and demanding payment. I'd be throwing their **** back down at them. Better yet, I'd go back inside and shut the window. Now they're out their "product" and I have something to throw away in the next trash can I see.

nb2611 (@bb26115) reported$GME The disrespect @ryancohen gives to his loyal shareholders of GameStop with the absolute down right refusal to provide any information on HOW eBay will be paid for The meeting is tomorrow and not a single retail shareholder has any idea what they are signing up for Gross

glorpin it up 𒉭 (@TaurineGoblin) reported@HadetTheUndying @userELAINE_EXE Found one on ebay seemingly functional, light turns on, no sound or visual whatsoever... Got a refund from the guy who was understanding about it. Good dude. What could be wrong with it? I stripped it down but I know nothing about the mac g3. Bad battery maybe?

𖤐 Ace 🜏 (Diavolo & Lucifer’s Husband) (@AceDisgrace404) reported@Elizabe13050542 eBay is just CRAZY overpriced now with resellers sadly. You can find BROKEN Lucifer merch going for 10x it’s original price

zaki of #zakitwt (Im back! ×2) (@bacon4zaki) reportedEveryone, it's important to me that you all know NENE is ******* lying on her BLOODLINE this ***** sold her soul on ebay for 3000 dollars and didnt know how to get it taken down for 4 days

bad robot ventures (@foxenflask) reportedMy interpretation of this is that $EBAY basically retaliated against an employee for noticing and pointing out their promoted listings scammy back end architecture. Not surprising as this is the same board (only a few left) that oversaw a campaign of stalking and terror on independent reporters that were covering their business practices. “Williams claims she raised concerns about the Promoted Listings issue to leadership and later provided information to the SEC, alleging the matter could affect investors, sellers, advertisers or public reporting connected to one of eBay’s largest revenue streams.”

Salient Service (@SalientService) reportedAnother problem I was having that that I bought cheap ebay headers for this car and, we'll, they didn't fit well. Specifically, they hit the steering shaft in two places. This is, unfortunately, exceedingly common and why the ebay brand headers are so cheap.

Corey Galloway (@CoreyTG21) reported@WaxMetrix @eBay You would think @natsturner would care enough about the industry to fix this massive problem.

Dezo (@0xDezo) reportedCHINESE DEV PULLED $4,720,000 ON A MINI PC SMALLER THAN A NOVEL WHILE NVIDIA'S $8,499 RTX 5000 ADA SAT IN THE SHOP WINDOW Intel LGA1700 board. 32GB DDR5 SO-DIMM. Two Samsung PM9A1 gen 4 SSDs pulled from Dell servers for $41 each. NVIDIA Quadro T1000, 4GB VRAM, $180 on eBay. Most builders think you need a full tower for inference. She fit the whole rig into a black case the size of a hardback book. Pause at 0:02 — the Quadro T1000 laid out next to a keyboard bigger than the entire PC. The workstation moat died when used server SSDs hit $41. Full build in the video below.

Wade (@TechDaily) reported@C37484Olibher That’s just eBay. Something that helps is never answering questions or messages, never selling to question-askers, and never accepting offers via messages. My blocked buyers list is 500+. “Does this work with xxx” or “why are you selling” or “$xx right now” are problem buyers.
