eBay Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • WeinbergerDave Dave Weinberger (@WeinbergerDave) reported

    @ebay why are you letting sellers price gouge baby formula when this is a serious national health issue?

  • NE__Adfifty A.D. Green bubble. (@NE__Adfifty) reported

    @eBay you need to shut down all baby formula sales immediately to punish scalpers

  • SoCalDemocrats Jon Rines 🇺🇸 (@SoCalDemocrats) reported from San Marcos, California

    I’m also the only eBay listing selling something like this and zero viewer traffic. Is eBay broken?

  • my_junkdrawer Minister of Impediments (@my_junkdrawer) reported

    @jrssnet @thepacketrat I've done quite a few installs/re-installs of W10 on older hardware. Stuff like the equipment turn-ins from corp leasing ($100-150 on Ebay). Windows seems to prefer outdated hardware. Those don't actually have many issues (in installing...).

  • BlissWallpaper Ashuri: Fujoshi-hime (@BlissWallpaper) reported

    Welp, it happened, spotted an E5 2697v2, for USD$50 on eBay. (USD$70 after shipping and import fees) That's a 12 core Ivy Bridge Xeon CPU to upgrade my second UnRAID server which currently runs an E5 2603v2 which is the worst Ivy Bridge Xeon. (4c, 4t, 1.8ghz, no turbo, no ht)

  • CrimsonTie ❤️Crimson Tie☮️ (@CrimsonTie) reported

    Lol my mom is trying to run a business here and the buyer asks for a refund when the item (349 dollars) was out for delivery Now the terrible @AskeBay @eBay is saying basically to screw ourselves and we aren’t getting our money or our item back… eBay really hates it’s sellers

  • drsilentg drsilentg (@drsilentg) reported

    @eBay I keep getting payment not going through on item 384888642052. Tried multiple accounts and payment methods. None working. Is there a sitewide issue?

  • beam_rl Ex-GOP (@beam_rl) reported

    @davidmweissman @KatiePavlich They are too busy selling baby formula on eBay and the FB Marketplace for almost a hundred a can to come up with a solution to the problem.

  • DanielleGan1987 Danni 🌻 (@DanielleGan1987) reported

    @InJDWeStan I have 654 positive feedback on eBay and have used their site since 2011 and never had any issues. Such bad customer service.

  • moseppie DCD Sports Cards (@moseppie) reported

    @DroctagonC Yeah it’s been so weird on eBay - I think last 3 are $852, then $662, then $534 Prices all over the place but heading down over time - $650 is a solid price - I just want to see if they keep dipping

  • IremainEuropean Catherine Fraser (@IremainEuropean) reported

    @AskeBay No, it says account is temporarily locked because someone else may have tried to use it. I’m asked to sign in to reset password but the email address registered with EBay is no longer in use.

  • AndrewBVCU AndrewVCU81 🇺🇲 (@AndrewBVCU) reported

    @DougSul08172032 @bigwerms Im still fairly new to all this but I have noticed that buyers are even more stingy down to the dollar than they have been in the past due to the economy and inflation. Its getting harder and harder to turn a profit for me. I keep sending Ebay offers and I rarely get a counter.

  • HuaracheDeOro .🫂 (@HuaracheDeOro) reported

    Definitely bummed Peggy has some major paint issues but nothing I can’t touch up myself, wouldn’t mind dropping the dosh for a better Hayley Atwell head sculpt, a few on eBay for a good price

  • japaneseforms ©japanese forms (@japaneseforms) reported

    @colinphoenix No problem. I would have gladly sent you one. I imagine you could find one on eBay or whatever. Mine are authentic items from the early '70s.

  • vocaIoid2 maze (@vocaIoid2) reported

    ebay isn't letting me sign in 😨😨😨😨😨???

  • realmarkkemp mark kemp (@realmarkkemp) reported

    @ebay what is the best way of contacting you I'm having issues with my account and I'm unable to get a hold of anyone to sort it this is getting very frustrating. Please can you help me!

  • petemorristwit Sir Peter Morris: I'm not in the mood. FGS (@petemorristwit) reported

    @vacuddlymum Problem is, if I sell them on Ebay or something similar, it's the packing them up and the shipping cost thats a problem. It's a bit of a pain. I could do with collection only, but from experience, you don't get many bids then. I'd be annoyed to sell them for a fiver.

  • witcheratwork witcheratwork (@witcheratwork) reported

  • bookfetishist Jules Jones 🔶🇪🇺🇬🇧🐝🕷️#WearADamnMask (@bookfetishist) reported

    Down the yarn rabbit hole: eBay - oh yes, I bid on that pack of 4 Textile Heritage cross-stitch bookmark kits being sold by a charity shop, didn't I? Don't think I'll up my bid after this morning's fountain pen shopping accident.

  • kirk4life412 Kirk Diggler (@kirk4life412) reported

    @ebay man your seller service department is straight trash always in a rush to get people off the phone when I’m trying to get a hold of a manager with an issue that’s holding my account back I’ve been penalized for something that happened over a year ago you guys are literally

  • TheGalDeathpaw Ter Deathpaw 🏳️‍⚧️ 🇺🇦 NSFW DNI!!! (@TheGalDeathpaw) reported

    @wolfy_rages @Not_Cyberman Only problem with eBay is it shows what u ordered on the label and i still live with my mum

  • Crome_Dome_ CromeDome(3,3) (@Crome_Dome_) reported

    @myloveisburrito @BitsBeTrippin Big fan my dude! I just had an S19 go down. Turns out it was the control board gone bad after about 3 months mining. I found one one eBay and got up and running in a few days. Maybe do video on a control board remove and replace and a firmware upload?

  • bambooshooti Bambooshooti™ 🇺🇸🥁🌊😷💉💉🌻 (@bambooshooti) reported

    @storyheadjillmc Somewhere a server or network device failed, and automatic failover to active devices didn’t work properly. Ebay is a cobbled together mess of software created over time.

  • Michael27975771 Michael Cole (@Michael27975771) reported

    @MCDJTommy @eBay Sorry man I had same issues #jonnytech01 helped fixed mine

  • njrabit Bun E. Brewster :: http://mastodon.social/@njrabit (@njrabit) reported

    The way eBay's search engine works is a mistake. Searched for "Valcom" and it _corrects_ it to Volcom because obviously there's no listings with Valcom? If I click "search instead for Valcom" it just goes back to Volcom. But wait "Valcom Speaker" returns 666 results. Broken!

  • IzziTrix sojuu addict (@IzziTrix) reported

    10) The first item sold on eBay was a broken laser pointer.

  • Tochinoshin33 Tochinoshin 愛は征服する (@Tochinoshin33) reported

    Today I went on a formula hunt online and in the stores. There is some ******* on eBay selling a 12 ounce bottle of formula for $320.00. See this is the problem with some people. So goddamn advantageous and it’s disgusting.

  • unopinionated_t David Taylor (@unopinionated_t) reported

    I will never ever sell on @eBay @AskeBay ever again. I have well and truly been duped. I am absolutely furious and now £400 down.

  • RealDaveMorris Dave Morris (@RealDaveMorris) reported

    @johnber01 Good thinking, John. I'll have to get my wife to do it -- not even sure if I have an eBay login. Wait, this is 1822, isn't it? :)
