    @ebay @askebay I purchased a designer bag on Nov 10th & still have not received it. I was told last week I would be receiving a full refund in 5-7 business days & today they told my they weren’t. That is a terrible way to treat people! I have been with EBay for 18 years!!!!!

  • RCCardSeller Sports Card Sellers Inc. (@RCCardSeller) reported

    @KevinEger2 @eBay Had this exact same issue happen a month ago. Talked to a rep and they refunded the buyer on their own. I didn’t do anything.

  • SuptWally Wally “insert clever topical name here” Miller (@SuptWally) reported

    @etdweasel @thealso @eBay It would be tempting but I already have a broken foot and its a long walk home from Michigan

  • GamesShed The Games Shed / TGS (@GamesShed) reported

    1/ Bought a working Game Boy with broken screen on ebay as a summer project on ebay. Item arrived and didn't work at all. Zero power. Seller accusing me of ripping parts out for my own use and replacing with broken bits? I'm absolutely astounded. I reported it as non functioning

  • SquidersGaming SquidersGaming (@SquidersGaming) reported

    @CurtPoke @TamzenSW Theres alot of **** legal wise thats gonna go down as the refunds from previous sellers then it’ll go down to that dude on ebay…he’s in alot of **** lol

  • MrCWeir1 Mr Weir (@MrCWeir1) reported

    @cjaneteach I got a bargain on eBay! Payed a tenner for an Ipevo one that was “broken” the camera part worked fine but the stand was broken. I then bought an articulating arm from Amazon for a tenner. Looked pretty retro and worked perfectly. Just got an upgrade!

  • Tauss_srgl Tauss. 🔜FC, TFF (@Tauss_srgl) reported

    @mightyohm Its absolutely terrible. Cant trust ANY test leads or wire from ebay/amazon anymore. Been sticking to proper distributors and brands like pomona recently because of it. Been burned too many times from sellers claiming they are selling "99% OFC"

  • Tawreos Tawreos (@Tawreos) reported

    @hemantmehta So the guy that sold his soul on Ebay has a problem with people buying NFTs? Really? =)

  • ericb336 Ericb336 (@ericb336) reported

    @Rickac99 @eBay Probably hard to guess, but do you think they will come back down in value? I remember when I had to offload some cards in the mid-'90s when I got into financial trouble, the values were way lower than I expected. (I also got absolutely massacred by a guy at a card shop. ******.)

  • clarfarmer clara (@clarfarmer) reported

    when you are selling large items such as #ebay and it requires an courier to collect, please give the exact postcode #timeisessential not driving another 5 miles down the road. as they other collections

  • broncoskolar Pasteur Eyes #UTA 🟥🟨 (@broncoskolar) reported

    I am selling dead cats on Ebay. Trouble is the market is saturated.

  • seasidewalkway https://youtu.be/yHWXVaax1h0 (@seasidewalkway) reported

    @killercryptid one time i sold a copy of final fantasy tactics on the PS1 on ebay and this guy wanted a return because the disc was slightly scratched (even though it was fully working & had no issues) because he “only collects games that are immaculate” and left me a negative review 🙃

  • danny813 Danny Pemberton (@danny813) reported

    @AnywhereN @mattswider Honestly, dont buy from people on Twitter.. if you go down that route do Ebay or a site like offer up. So many scams on Twitter. Stay in the walmart que if you have a timmer saying hold my spot

  • JuniorTCG Junior Lopez (@JuniorTCG) reported

    @TCGplayer I’ve ordered cards from eBay and most of them don’t come warped! They come from hot states too! The issue is the rooms these cards are kept are not well air conditioned. It’s takes time for cards to warp so transit ins’t the issue. It’s the sellers not properly storing them

  • chopinc33 Christopher Chopin (@chopinc33) reported

    @eBay seems to love emailing me good-looking-bunk-broken-**** like they're a legitimate company. Beware of the shiny **** you see on @eBay (The worst place to order insist on emailing yours truly). They already seen me coming around corner. Don't let them see you.

  • VincePalumbo4 Vince Palumbo (@VincePalumbo4) reported

    @MullBoose Ok, eBay has me “transphobic “ and what medical school did you attend to arrive at a brain cancer diagnosis? Lastly … that is not me in the picture but I find it funny you assumed. That’s the issue with you woke deranged mob. Basing subjective realities on assumption.

  • MrCobbyCobb Cobblo EsCobbar (@MrCobbyCobb) reported

    @drunkinRIPCITY @Nike You can find the player issue ones on eBay sometimes.

  • Uwie280371 Lury Wangsadikoesoem (@Uwie280371) reported

    @LeslieDBowden @MsLeaSalonga @_ari05 I reported already to weverse Shop and Hybe Merch. I heard they already took down the resellers site on eBay, I didn't check it again yet.

  • JQtwit21 Jon (@JQtwit21) reported

    ive been selling for 17 years. and it is obvious the attack and fraud the ebay customers are doing. EBAY CAN'T FIX IT. THEY CANNOT BEAT AMAZON. THEY ARE ALREADY LOSING TO WALMART AND THEY JUST STARTED! EVEN WITH EBAYS NEW PAYMENT THEY TOOK CONTROL OF WILL NOT MAKE THEM $

  • mradknight Andy K (@mradknight) reported

    @joncbarrett I gave up on the Dalek sets and bought them off some bastard scalper. I *want* the next Robot release and will be pissed off if @bmstores don't start fixing the distribution and stocking problems that seem to lead to huge quantities of the stock ending up on eBay!! :/

  • johnambr0se john ambrose (@johnambr0se) reported

    @BitsBeTrippin Same. Got 4 accounts banned plus my eBay and paypal. Luclin server. Also did on wow using bots to MINE lol.

  • ericb336 Ericb336 (@ericb336) reported

    @Rickac99 @eBay I was never an OPC guy. Isn't it a pared down version of the American sets w/ French language on the back? (Or maybe French & English.)

  • sentences424 sentences424 (@sentences424) reported

    @kirawontmiss This is terrible advice being as you can sell the box on eBay

  • gerrymc123 Gerry Mc Namee (@gerrymc123) reported

    I’m turning down the chance of bidding for the royal medals and patronage now on eBay

  • KirbyThomasJr1 Kirby Thomas Jr. (@KirbyThomasJr1) reported

    @jmarcum72 @BBCExchange They are a distant 2nd online supplier of my habit (eBay of course is #1) their combined shipping rates are awesome (can get down to $4ish a box if you hit the right thresholds) and dont charge tax to MN so that's a 8% discount right there.

  • cloclo39343411 🔱⚡Clo🐱☸️🕉️🔱🐍 (@cloclo39343411) reported

    @modooborahae the problem is these ppl use bots to purchase the items. nobody is fast as a bot, that's why so many scalpers are know selling on ebay. block the bots and you will see the difference. should be the same for concerts.

  • donald10983 Donald (@donald10983) reported

    @eBay customer service is terrible. I returned something and @usps has not updated their tracking (shocker i know) so its multiple days late

  • iconifyit Iconify | Bricktopians (@iconifyit) reported

    @gr33nin5d Not to metion, people think nothing of collecting say, cute little glass animals or plastic Pez dispensers. Hell, eBay was built to trade Pez dispensers. But they look down on trading/collecting NFTs. What's the difference? No collectibles have intrisic value (except maybe coins)

  • stacie_waiting1 TBOBF season 🍊⁷ (@stacie_waiting1) reported

    And I've seen people trying to down play this, like, "don't get worked up because you didn't get merch" BUT HAVE YOU SEEN EBAY, PEOPLE ARE GOING TO SPEND OUTRAGEOUS AMOUNTS OF MONEY ON THIS STUFF AND THATS EXACTLY WHAT THEY WANT
