Pimpdaddysatan (@_Pimpdaddysatan) reported@ReelJustinLewis I had one, listed it on eBay and right before it got pulled down for being against standards some dude messaged and offered $600 for the dagger and sheath. I should have kept it, but at the time years back, I needed the money.. 👍

𝙅𝙒 (@ArvinJA21) reported@RepDaleStrong On March 12, 2026, Amazon instituted a policy to illegitimately take monies from 3rd Party Sellers, who constitute 60% of sales on Amazon according to Amazon, in order to improve its own cash flow. This policy is an example of the anti-competitive practices Amazon has used to enrich itself and undermine all competitors over many years. For about 20 years Amazon paid Sellers as follows: 1) a Customer selected a Seller’s item for purchase; 2) the Seller fulfilled the order, shipping the item to the Customer; 3) the Customer paid the item price plus any shipping charge applied by the Seller; 4) the Seller paid the actual shipping cost; 5) Amazon took its standard fees for every transaction; and 6) Amazon regularly paid the Seller the difference between its own fees and the Seller’s item price and shipping charge. The Seller and Amazon both benefitted greatly from this system. As of 3/12/2026, Amazon switched to what it called “DD+7”, which stands for Delivery Date plus 7 days. Amazon still takes it fees immediately when a Seller fulfills an order. Amazon pays the Seller nothing until 7 days after the item is delivered to the Customer, which depends upon the speed and accuracy of the USPS, UPS, or other delivery service. Sellers therefore, are paid approximately 14 days after spending to ship the item, rather than at the time of shipping. Amazon utilizes the full amount paid by the Customer as it wishes until Delivery Date plus 7 days, which amounts to millions of dollars every day that payment to the Seller is delayed. According to Amazon, “Moving your reserve setting to DD+7 provides time for you to accrue fees and other costs before disbursement and gives your customers time to receive, open, and evaluate their order.” This rationalization would be laughable if it weren’t so extremely and prejudicially false. Every purchase on Amazon can be returned within 30 days for a full refund. DD+7 does not add any additional time for the Customer to “…receive, open, and evaluate their order.” As a Seller, also, I have no idea what “…fees and other costs before disbursement…” I could accrue; gaslighting is the only thing stated in this sentence. There are millions of 3rd Party Sellers on Amazon, and almost all of them are small businesses. Amazon has spent decades making its Seller system appear to be the most efficient and effective, undercutting all other major 3rd Party Seller systems, such as ebay. The system before DD+7 was extremely profitable to Amazon. Now Amazon is requiring a pay-off which harms its own 3rd Party Sellers, to the benefit only of Amazon’s enormous bottom line. Please contact Amazon about this penurious attack upon its Sellers. We depend upon Congress to defend the small businesses that are sources of enormous value throughout our country. Please also address the issues raised here in the appropriate Congressional committees. Public hearings will not show Amazon in a good light. Thank you,

El Bucci (@bigbucciband) reported@JayBobSons Brother I am a top rated eBay seller, I’ve had 100s of people with 0 feedback buy and I’ve had no problems. Plenty times I sold slabs and seen them being posted by a celebrity and more. Scared money don’t make no money, it’s just facts.

Abu Fahad (@alfahadibrahim3) reported@eBay Hello, I placed an order back in December 2025, and I still haven’t received my shipment. However, your website shows that it has been delivered, which is incorrect. Please check this issue urgently and contact me as soon as possible to resolve it. Thank you.

Friedrich von Schwaben (@Schwaben_von) reported@ehelpmann I had about 40 buys on ebay until 2022 and now 13 sells in the last months. Not one problem, I am able to check the Silver. I surely only buy from accounts which have good reviews and a history. Thanks for the tip but I am not interested in buying physical in the moment. I sold 25% of my Silver and got all the money back I have ever invested and still have 75% (1258oz) of the metal. I will not sell anymore. Additional Silver I would buy via ETFs.

David Peck (@dpeck100) reported@cardofdreams I bought this from eBay years ago. 36 card display case that says UV protected. Have six full. Used to have on the wall but took down for safety reasons. They sit on the floor against a wall and nice to be able to access whenever.

All4Freedom🇺🇲🐸🍿 (@skillz17q) reported@lynn_dodds84927 I just found 10 items that are cheaper on eBay vs Amazon in about 15 seconds. Amazon should be faster you're paying a membership fee. Since they started using the United States Postal Service that is went downhill in my area. As for returns I've had a few issues but even if the seller does not want to accept the return eBay forces them to and gives you your money back and sometimes you get to keep the item.

Hitch (@Hitchxyz) reportedThe physical trading card market has a massive friction problem. If you pull a rare card, you have to send it to PSA, wait two months for grading, list it on eBay, pay a 13% fee, and hope the buyer doesn't chargeback. The liquidity is terrible. Digital collectibles solve the liquidity problem instantly, but historically they failed to capture the emotional weight of physical cards. We are building the bridge between the two. The liquidity of crypto with the tactile psychology of physical collecting.

Nic🫶🏻le✌🏼👟 (@1t0ughco0kie) reportedHas anyone ever NOT had their sneaks authenticated on eBay? I’ve never had a problem, but I’m sure it happens?

Chris Radis (@Radi27) reported@eBay I have contacted agents and that was as helpful as they could be. At this point I want to make sure others are aware of eBay’s policies so they don’t have similar issues. I don’t mind “buyer beware” but when potential fraud is discovered, action needs to be taken. None was

Chuy Baca (@chuybaca) reported@GMC_Capital @eBay @CardPurchaser Since ebay is connected with PSA, and probably other grading companies, they should force sellers to upload/scan the unique code on the graded cards to prevent the same card from being reused. Would be a sime fix

PsyoptimusPrime (@FutureLuckyGuy) reported@kadal_jp @hide_loopcube I've always bought broken consoles from Japan and fixed them here in the US There are many Japanese ebay sellers who sell exclusively to us

schrader (@tonyaces) reportedThe amount of photos/post of cards being damaged leaving eBay authentication process is pretty wild. It feels like one of the bigger issues you see right now. Very expensive cards being destroyed. My understanding is seller loses the money and gets a damaged card returned.

Monsoon Magic (@TheCactusCosmic) reported@Catscollecttcg I’ve been using EBay since 2006 and haven’t ever had issues with sellers but then again I auto-select my sellers to be US/NA only when buying any TCGs even foreign language ones.

Squid (@sydkg02) reported@eBay Please look into this user. I have sent in a report but since this user has been known to talk to underage people online, this is kind of an issue that needs to be dealt with asap

Ylliaster (@Ylliaster) reportedBest part is that I got paid last night, I'm already down to £20, but at least I don't owe anyone anything until may. So I thought 'it's okay, I still have £130 to come from @eBay ' except no I don't, because despite them saying '2 days after delivery' and then '0-2 days for

Robb Carlson (@robbc_) reported@eBay @VandelayBreaks @CardPurchaser how do we open the right type of case - I don't want to mail my card back to have eBay Auth poorly repack it again (I'm on my 3rd time with this issue)

ᗪ乇卂ᗪ尸ㄖㄖㄥ™ ᯤ 𓈆 1% (@Dxadpool) reportedPSA: If you find a glowing, pulsating rock in Central Park, do NOT try to sell it on eBay. S.H.I.E.L.D. will absolutely suspend your account and take your seller rating down to zero. 🙄

Trent Von Holten (@308Greenfield) reported@olamin2003 Worst is you have to hope the parts unit you buy on EBay doesn’t have the same problem.

Failure is an option (@FarmingWithYHWH) reported@TanakhvsNT @HighImpactFlix If you have a little bit of knowledge - AI can help bridge that gap. I installed Vendewolf on an $80 HP Eilte desk (quad core / 16 GB RAM) (Ebay) - used AI to accelerate scripts to turn it into a personal cloud server. Plan is to replace my corporate router, and cloud storage.

Premier Sports Cards (@premiercards_2) reported@GFilwett @eBay No, this is a slab bag. The problem is it’s a single card in a penny sleeve inside a card saver and then because that’s in the box that gets banged around like crazy it slides out of the card saver. I can re-create it in three seconds.
