    @DrJoe4congress @marcuslemonis UBI would stop retail theft and the reselling of gucci bags for $4k a piece on eBay? What? Clearly you have long Covid and have trouble breathing? .. Or just another dumb tweeter?

  • domsutton domsutton (@domsutton) reported

    Hi @eBay I really like your new Beta messaging system in the app. A couple of things though: 1. In the new version you can't reply to messages with an offer on an item. 2. The payment reminder message doesn't work in the new version. Other than those issues, it's much better. 👍

  • GamingXb0xYT GamingXbox (@GamingXb0xYT) reported

    @JasonSilverhand @Newegg @XboxGamePass Hopefully things will settle down in the summer because if you look at prices on eBay they are already starting to fall.

  • momofnorank Heather Martin (@momofnorank) reported

    @AskeBay That’s the issue— I can’t access either the seller or the message via eBay. As far as I can tell, you’ve deactivated the seller.

  • popaff Pop Culture Affidavit (@popaff) reported

    I have rescued myself from the true crime podcast rabbit hole. I have now fallen down the "Vintage EPCOT souveniers on eBay" rabbit hole.

  • Tyrell1960 Pentium8086 (@Tyrell1960) reported

    @NeweggService this memory I free SSD for Micro-center for new members. Bestbuy or Newegg never offer new customers anything. I once get a memory finally I have to go on Craiglist or eBay, Amazon, etc to my complete virtual server either Proxmox or OMV 6. Later get some more

  • justmevincent Vincent. (@justmevincent) reported

    @eBay I won't ever use Ebay again. Scammers can easy take your money that you pay for something. EBay to slow to act. I've not got my money back. Headache

  • KenneyRon ron kenney (@KenneyRon) reported

    @TobyLogsdon I sell used books on ebay. I have over 2000 listings. Sales are up and down from month to month, but on average they remain steady.

  • SiberianSneaks SiberianSneaks (@SiberianSneaks) reported

    If I was to create a pinned tweet/thread with bad/difficult eBay buyers so that we could all be made aware of buyers who did not pay after winning an auction, or who scammed, etc…would y’all participate? Would love to add people to my banned buyer list if they are a problem.

  • theflipu Flip University (@theflipu) reported

    Anyone else have issues with post office returning the eBay standard labels saying you owe an extra 10 cents? Labels cost .93 in eBay. I don’t care at all I just want them printed correctly so they all stop getting returned. @CardPurchaser

  • AtomicRage666 Anti U 🏴 (@AtomicRage666) reported

    @SoulInfinite23 @THEREALRTU Yha that's a problem. Usually they are dumb sellers trying to pass old items off as new. Unless they are NOS items. I sell on ebay. Lol. However. You will always get a refund if an item is not as described. Free shipping.

  • MarkYoung Mark Young (@MarkYoung) reported

    @PaulONeill29 Paying after you send it mate doesn’t seem legit Most online payments you have to make up front (eBay for example) then any problems the buyer asks for a refund which is handled by PayPal 🙃

  • gab76e n0_sh0w (@gab76e) reported

    eBay is full of MacBooks with broken screens or liquid damage. thank @iFixit for the tools to make 2 broken MacBooks one working one. next project is coming in the mail. macbook pro 15” 2015

  • ClaireGemma Claire (@ClaireGemma) reported

    @mummymcmumface2 I've started using it to buy, having bought almost all my clothes from eBay in the past decade. I like that there's no faffing with bidding. I've had one issue with Hermes/Evri (they can change their name all they like but they're still unreliable) but everything else fine.

  • writerlyai_bot Writerly.ai Answers Bot (@writerlyai_bot) reported

    @Woodgnome92 It sounds like you may have had a problem with the shirt you purchased. eBay may have been unable to process your payment for some reason.

    @eBay @Pokemon Can u guys fix my account please

  • DarkSouls2NPC DONBROS OSCARS WIN🍑 (@DarkSouls2NPC) reported

    i feel like i enjoy wiring up electronics and soldering things to PCBs more than actual videogames nowadays, i might buy some broken hardware on ebay to attempt fixing them

  • slimso20 fon🐶 (@slimso20) reported

    Ryeowook be sending me down the memory lane. Someone please tell my school to hire me so I can actually afford to buy a camera off of ebay 🥲

  • beema41 Green.Farmer.Greg (@beema41) reported

    @simonahac @climate200 The issue with @SkyNewsAust is that no one will be watching it because it's one of the worst rated drama shows on TV. The Weather gets better ratings. I'd rather surf eBay........

  • TD78654 T. D. Suzuki (@TD78654) reported

    @AskeBay ebay is broken. Buyer paid for item then requested return. Buyer funds on hold. I approved refund. eBay refunded buyer their money paid. Then eBay informed it's debiting bank account for refund of money on hold. What a scam.

  • trans_kaefer kaefer (@trans_kaefer) reported

    Me: "Let's sell my unwanted stuff on ebay so moving into the new flat won't be too hard" Also me: "Let's buy 20 broken game consoles that I can try to fix" *klick*

  • FlyOnNo10Wall Mark Francewanker (@FlyOnNo10Wall) reported

    As with channel 4 we sell anything that isn’t nailed down. And as with the National grid we also sell things that are nailed down. Putting my granny on EBay later, should get a couple of quid and that’s what it’s all about isn’t it. Long term benefits & security is woke nonsense.

  • cousinBalky Booboo Jenkinz (@cousinBalky) reported

    @AskeBay what is the number for Ebay FedEx issues. Apparently sellers are using the eBay FedEx account and this need to speak to eBay shipping department? I just need a phone # not another direct message convo

  • florencerounda2 Helen Of Coy ©️ 😉 (@florencerounda2) reported

    @Capellarec I rarely use eBay. Last year I bought a few bits and had no problem but I would rather pay the bit extra on Amazon or at least get it the next day

  • libbykerfman libby🌵Ⓥ (@libbykerfman) reported

    Fell down the eBay rabbit hole trying to find a specific nickelback tour hockey jersey

  • paulwall217 Paul (@paulwall217) reported

    @BlissWallpaper My DIC DVDs are such terrible bootlegs from the eBay era. I have them on my computer but I don’t think the quality is that good either. I see people with some HQ DIC dubs and i wonder! Lol

  • nerdcore_gf brie ❓ 0 ❓❓ (@nerdcore_gf) reported

    @riddlerslatte i would say pass if money's an issue, my usual thing for comics is like...it sucks but theres always resellers on ebay or mycomicshop that may carry the variant later on. if u cant afford it rn, it'd be best to pass, nothing wrong with having to pass on it!!

  • iljawascoding Ilja A. Iwas (@iljawascoding) reported

    @EcommerceBytes I’d be interested to know what the underlying issue here is. We are tying to get some call limits increased for eBay’s new REST APIs for weeks, and only get *crickets*

  • NYAZSPORTSFAN JROD CARDS (@NYAZSPORTSFAN) reported

    @VPECards @itsGP3 2 issues-1-If a package looked like then upon delivery it would never be delivered. So if it really was in a mailbox like that the postal worker opened it. 2- the ebay guy is wrong, saying "two victims" you know its stolen,do the right thing.Not trying to ruffle feathers btw.
