-
Pynkato (@Pynkato) reported@Canadianguyehh It also doesn't account for the second-hand market. Sony isn't getting rid of discs because they're unpopular, it's because they don't get a cut of the games sold at GameStop, eBay, local marketplaces, or those handed down/gifted/lent to friends or family. It's pure greed.
-
🇬🇧BlueControl🇬🇧 (@blue_control69) reported@RsGimble @SkyNews You are correct. As an eBay seller, a lot of my items are sent with evri and I haven't had an issue since I started 12 months ago. Back in their early days they were fairly unreliable, from my experiences they have turned that around.
-
Johnny Crambo (@JohnnyCrambo) reported@dab_king86 Oh bro I'm so glad you brought this up. Be SO CAREFUL with Chinese Pokemon on eBay. There's a recent surge of new Chinese sellers, selling things at like half value or less. It's all fake stuff. And it's a huge problem right now on eBay. 🫤
-
The Transformers Transsexual (@TFTranssexual) reported@AlanAre63530701 It's whatever, I try not to bring personal life problems onto this account so maybe that's why people think it's all just hunky dory for me. I'll just sell off some more things on eBay so I can afford to go out

Dwoalin (@Dwoalin) reported@pluslunar @PlayStation I factory resetted a new PS5 I’d bought on eBay last night and all my physical games showed the play times 🤔 Hoping it’s just a glitch.
-
corporationsgonewild 🌊 🇺🇦🌻 (@CorpGoneWild) reported@eBay I have a defective item I am trying to return and the seller is refusing to send a return label. I need to speak to a live representative. AI is not understanding the issue. This is a book that is listed as "VERY GOOD" and reeks of mold and cigarette smoke. Need live agent
-
meg (@skywalkeryaoi) reported@brikenobi also want to let you know this sent me down an ebay spiral where i went looking for those old mcdonalds glass cups of the muppets and shrek
-
CollectorMane (@collectormane) reported@TheForza_ @switchstock Not that simple. Not only would It would be nearly impossible to enforce and cost a lot to monitor everyone, but shops could just sell under a different name on eBay or tcgplayer. They also aren't the distributors. I would say the distributors are a large part of the issue
-
Nazare Andrei (@NazareAndrei1) reported@RealMattCouch Wow, so many retards in this thread. You are LEGALLY OBLIGATED to tell the officer if you have a gun. But i guess many of you bought your guns off ebay or craigslist or the chimps down the road, or from the 2-toothed hick that owns the derelict gun shop.
-
Gordon Hudson (@gordonhudsonnu) reportedHere is a thought about security and mobile apps. Most apps we use are actually fixed web browsers (Ebay, Amazon, Facebook, X, Banking apps etc). These apps require a lot of permissions and have a lot of trackers. If we accessed those via bookmarks on a privacy focused mobile web browser like Brave or DuckDuckGo we would require fewer apps and we would have more control over what data was being shared with those companies. The only down side would be lack of notifications, but I think for many purposes this is a more secure way to use these services.

theleahfiles (@leahfiles) reported@enzuccia778 @grok You have an eBay store that sells ugly jewelry. I’d pipe down on the insults if I were you
-
Snarker (@Snarker_X) reported@SailorOdSunMoon @eBay A closed mouth avoids problems that loud words often create 🤐
-
Late Stage Capitalist (@latestagecpsm) reported@VicMelsky @SteveOnSpeed A lot of eBay categories have the same problem: foreign sellers competing directly with U.S. sellers, often with shipping advantages U.S. sellers never had. At one point it could be cheaper to ship a small package from China to New York than from New York to Atlanta. Closing the de minimis loophole helped, but Amazon is a different animal. Amazon doesn’t just allow the foreign seller advantage — it industrialized it. It built the logistics network that moves imported goods into U.S. warehouses and makes them feel domestic to the customer. The problem is that Amazon profits either way. Chinese seller, U.S. seller, imported product, domestic product — Amazon still gets the fee. That’s why the marketplace itself matters. If the dominant marketplace were structured to prioritize U.S.-based small and medium businesses selling both domestic and imported goods, the upside would go to working people here: younger people, displaced older workers, families trying to build side income, local communities.

Sniff (@TheGlueSniffer) reported@SudStars05 Only problem is you have to deal with eBay users like Greg Fines buying up everything that’s actually decently priced so they can scalp it
-
Farigiraf use Psybeam 🟣 (@ArmorTailGirl) reportedScalpers are a huge problem too — it takes roughly 1,300 packs to pull a chase SIR just to resell it for $1,000+ on eBay. Raising the pull rates isn’t the solution either. Just ask everyone for their personal data, I’m sure you’ll make good use of it 🌈
-
Keurig Coffee Girl (@ButterPecanHole) reportedPerformative buuuuulllllshiiiiiit. Dude bought a broken PS5 on ebay for internet points
-
TDmoreEhhh (@TDMoreEhh) reported@BeeefSupreeme @CardPurchaser Holy **** they are already on my block list. @eBay looks like you have a real problem child on your hand here
-
Jimjustgames (@jimjustgames) reported@Idontcare987123 @SynicalGaming1 I have no issues paying $80 for a game I love just did so yesterday on eBay for a rare indie. I personally am not a GTa guy but I can see your point NES games are short, hard some but short
-
flashbangricky (@x42dsx) reported@Deputy734022773 @ChaiDeluxe @jugg_pochettino I definitely agree with that. Classic mode on BO7 made me buy the game physically for $25 on ebay last month. This further incentivizes Sony and Microsoft to market their games like Nintendo. They’ll never go down in price other than the occasional 5% off. These people are evil.
-
Godard’s Goods (@GodardsGoods) reported@WaxMetrix @eBay How is this still happening? It’s so well known at this point, they are just choosing not to fix the issue!
-
Gio V (@ResponsiveRock) reported@WaxMetrix @skol4L @eBay Yeah PSA is so behind, they're just throwing random people at all their problems and just slinging **** out the door. It's so unfortunate 😞
-
Yami Grandpa's Deck (@SirParthington) reported@WaxMetrix @eBay They’ve been doing this for years. When are you going to fix this?! @eBay
-
SlabSquatch Sports Cards (@WaxMetrix) reported@skol4L @eBay I wonder what it will take to fix this. It's almost like they don't care.
-
Kaalion Rjest™ (@TheKaalionRjest) reportedSo I guess @eBay has no problem pointing me to a screen that loops and doesn't let me contact support, but seems fine with scammers on the website. My first time using ebay and I'm stuck dealing with someone trying to screw me about. Now I know why I haven't used ebay...
-
KevinfromWyoming 🇺🇸 (@KevinWyoming2) reported@DaveKluge Good job! My USB/Aux port on my 2012 Toyota RAV4 went out, and the local shop quoted me $200 to fix it. I found the part online, bought it on Ebay - new - for $15 with free shipping. It took 2 minutes to replace with a YouTube how-to video.

Kenneth Dearborn (@kendearbornky) reported@RonFilipkowski On The West Wing, an intern got in trouble for selling moose meat on EBay? 🙄
-
alex bud (@alex_budimir) reported@CardPurchaser First time I was victim to the refund because of a cheap buy. And my first negative review left. Bought on ebay for like 8 years with no problem before this.
-
Rafi (@londravenezia) reported@GBNEWS Maybe if charity shops didn’t price their items so high they wouldn’t have to close down. The charities also sell lots on eBay so probably they no longer want to deal with the basic mundane stuff
-
OnlyCharizard (@OnlyCharizard) reported@LememeJames I would say its not your f'n problem. If they wanted it faster they should have let you know and paid for Priority shipping. I'd tell them to **** off and deal with it. Then I'd report them to ebay for abusing the return system and falsely claiming it was not as described.
