Marginalized Bigot (@GrowlyGrr) reportedHey @usmint, you shouldn't allow bots to get ahead of real people! My wife was inline almost an hour early and it was doing the count down and then when it opened at 12pm it said an hour wait! All are gone now. They were gone at 12pm because you have **** security to protect against bots. Now if I want that liberty bell I have to buy from some Chinese farm account on ebay for thousands! Seriously, screw you. Your handling of the 250th anniversary coins has been horrible. You should have been protecting real people from bots!

Zebbel42 (@zebbel4289339) reported@minfiliaryne @Orbital1010 Yeah you can buy on EBay or Amazon for old issues if you care that much They don’t owe you their work dude
-
AlpenWaffen (@CitiesSuck) reported@MossutoNicholas @SlowNewsDayShow I haven't even looked into going to a junkyard for car parts for the past 15 years. Pain in the ***, we have no pick-a-part yards in my area, and I've never had trouble finding what I need on ebay or Marketplace.

Mervin Cruddy (@rotoace) reported@capitaloneshop Why do you not have "eBay" or "Chewy" anymore for redemption!? Please fix asap
-
Rick (@rick_rgf142u) reported@downdetector Does this mean we can charge ebay a fee for down time? They are always quick to charge sellers fees for every little thing🤔
-
First Squawk (@FirstSquawk) reportedeBay appears to be experiencing technical issues, with users reporting problems on Downdetector.

King Contrarian (@King_Contrarian) reported@eBay I just want you to know that selling cards on eBay is ridiculous because the eBay standard envelopes people just take advantage of the fact that when the post service has it, they don’t scan it as delivered. So what am I supposed to do when my customers that I sell cards to say they never received the card and it was already confirmed to be with the Postal Service? We’re having a bunch of people just saying that and they do NOT have the cards that’s the thing so then I have to refund them and then I have to get a refund from eBay for the $20 protection of the card getting “lost in the mail” This is systematically broken.
-
Clector (@clectorapp) reported@OptaSTATS @Yankees And yet the card market treats him like a role player. For a résumé no one else in history matches, Bellinger trades at just a $17 average across 135 eBay tracked sales in 90 days, with only 2 cards clearing $100. The hobby priced him off the down years, not the trophy case. One of the most decorated players in the game, sitting in the bargain bin.

Polsia (@polsia) reportedRockAuto, eBay, junkyards, dealer sites — none of them talk to each other. Built PartScout AI to fix that. Describe your vehicle and what you need. We find compatible parts, compare prices, and explain the fitment. No more hunting across a fragmented market. Live soon.

Don Greer (@theDonGreer) reported@ClimateAudit I doubt it as well, but if you're gonna tilt at that windmill, it seems to me the number of windmills left to tilt with marches on to the horizon. :) Seriously, most meme coins are just a little slimy, but again, I don't think the government should ride in and save the day. There might be actual utility there, but it needs to be discovered, and clamping down before that discovery mechanism has time to work seems like the wrong answer. The same argument could be made against OTC trading of penny stocks. Would you want to make that illegal as well? And what about Meme stocks? GME was all but left for dead until the WallStreetBets crowd poured money into the market for it. One of those guys is now the CEO, and not only has he gotten the company's financials under control, but he's also actively looking at acquiring eBay. Cutting off something that sounds questionable before it has time to come to fruition can lead to serious negative consequences, and I personally don't think we have finished playing out the bitcoin/altcoin drama yet. YMMV

Tony “Open a Pokémon Pack Every Dang Day” Bermudez (@BerMEWdez) reported.@eBay needs needs to crack down on this. It’s absolutely ridiculous
-
P. T. (@teuf4) reported@PPrevich @jayhutch40 There are random areas that are $2 more for Ground Advantage and last I checked eBay has no fix—calculated shipping was showing regular rates not eBay discounted price
-
Jack (@Jackkk) reported@BaxterSaxster @notthreadguy it was from like a consignment company typa thing so pretty sure would’ve been legit ebay is a terrible experience tho bidding sucks
-
CorellionCrusaders (@TheRedrocker95) reported@Revampedneonpt @Jazwares @Aaron_Margolin It's been really hard for me too, I've had to go to eBay a couple of times and use the restock server to keep track of figure restocks since that's what I mainly collect, but the stock has gotten slightly better in my area even if it's just a little bit
-
NoFlo Cards Enzo (@CardsEnzo) reported@Custer12 @eBay @PSAcard It's a known issue for over a year and they continually get tagged on these, they just don't care apparently lol.

jake2b (@jake2b) reportedafter reading this it clicked for me why Ryan Cohen was wanting to speak with eBay sellers. $eBay today is just coasting on cruise control under a “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” model and it’s paying the management fat compensation while shareholders are left with missing upside on their investment. there is no incentive to better the business or disrupt the status quo and this is how you end up with ideas like an on-site pub with free alcohol for employees. this is a great example of how Ryan is always thinking many steps ahead. sellers aren’t voting on a merger but without them, there is no eBay marketplace. they are the lifeblood and eBay management today is neglecting them because they know there is nowhere else for them to go. now I get why he keeps saying he wants to “run it like a family business.”

𝙧𝙮𝙖𝙣 🫧🐜 (@ryanaffect) reported@pokemondealsuk shame these will all go to the people that’ll just list it on ebay for 3x the price, terrible
-
Jed (@JEDNFT) reported@LordCharizard33 Ya I feel that man. I've only tried like 4 releases now, and have been let down every time. **** is always sold out. What I don't understand is how people are able to do pre sales on eBay for these items when getting them is not guaranteed. I really think something is broken.
-
Jeff (@Jeff56829691278) reportedJust finally checked out after adding my info 3x and got this error message. Not cool when you add your credit card info and it glitches… hopefully I get an email to confirm my order went through. It’s like EBay management is still living in 1996.
-
Fen Dozer (@DozerFen) reported@freetheboyyy To replace a broken or missing bone china piece, look for the manufacturer’s backstamp on the underside and use specialized registries like Replacements, Ltd.. For vintage patterns, you can also browse marketplaces like Etsy or eBay.
-
Wolfgang Hauser 📯 (@badnerland9) reported@eigen_moomin It's not a German problem but an American: you expect a normal average processing to receive maximum rating on a 5 level scale. So no way to reward better than average or (restaurant) high value-price ratio. Same **** with eBay.

Bohdan | Gamma Prime (@B_GammaPrime) reportedIn 2010, two Irish brothers founded Stripe to build what PayPal should have been. Yesterday, Stripe offered $53 billion to buy PayPal itself. Together with Advent International, Stripe tabled $60.50 per share - a 28% premium. PayPal jumped 19% on the news. The board hasn't answered yet. Sit with the numbers for a second. In July 2021, PayPal was worth $360 billion. It was the undisputed king of online payments - the company that built the category, the alumni network that produced Musk, Thiel, and half of Silicon Valley's founding class. The "PayPal mafia" became shorthand for tech royalty. This year, its market value touched $36 billion. Ninety percent - gone in under five years. Not because payments shrank. Payments exploded. PayPal lost the decade to faster checkout flows, embedded finance, and a developer-first competitor that simply out-built it. In February, PayPal's market value fell below eBay's - the company it was spun out of in 2015. The child became worth less than the parent it outgrew. And now the offer on the table is $53 billion. Roughly 15 cents on the peak dollar. Here's what makes this bid remarkable beyond the symbolism. Stripe never went public. While PayPal spent a decade being repriced, quarter by quarter, by a market that punished every stumble, Stripe stayed private, took the long view, and compounded quietly. Now the private challenger - teamed with private equity - proposes to take the public pioneer off the market entirely. If that playbook sounds familiar, it should. It's Dell, 2013: a fallen public giant, a buyer convinced the problems are fixable away from the quarterly spotlight, and shareholders being offered a premium to today's price that is also a fraction of yesterday's. Dell's take-private turned $1.8 billion into $15 billion. It's the most profitable tech buyout in history. Whether PayPal has a Dell inside it is the entire question. So if you're a PayPal shareholder, here's your choice: $60.50 in cash - 28% above yesterday, 80% below 2021. Take the money, or bet the turnaround?

Paige (@Paige43473431) reported@supuuness @Prolotario1 I just bought more today. Been stacking for 6 years. Very reputable dealer on Ebay named Value Delivered out of UT. Never a bad transaction in all this time. 1 million IQD right now costs about $950 USD. You will want to get 2023 or later issues. Circulated or Uncirculated doesn’t matter.

MagnumPrime (@MagnumPrime) reported@OffDaHook35 It’s an eBay glitch. Happened to me twice. Very important that you check your listing before you hit send.

Polsia (@polsia) reportedThe marketplace moves 24/7. You can't manually reprice across Amazon, eBay, Google Shopping, Meta, and TikTok—and that's where margin bleeds. Built CompeteIQ to fix that. AI monitoring 15,000 SKUs at 99%+ matching accuracy. Autopilot repricing with MAP enforcement.
