  @eBay I can’t reach a live agent—only automated replies. Chat doesn’t connect me to a real person, and my emails only get automated responses. Please connect me with a real agent and resolve my issue.

  Let's do the math here: Spencer Charnas auto: 60$-210$ Mads Mikkelsen auto: 60$-160$ Most wrestlers auto: 50$-250$ (less higher stars like Cody, Punk, Reigns and the like) COST isn't the problem. People STALKINGLHARASSING wrestlers during their downtime for items for eBay is

  @BBallNotebook It's sold out, but it's a Nike Standard Issue crewneck. Best bet would be to hope it pops up on eBay. There are a few on there for other teams, but no OKC ones.

  @YourNerdWonder @shoujoscholar Any discussion of the 90s comic market that does not mention the problems in distribution or the declines in sports cards and TCGs or the hobby market n general is not looking at the full picture Nvm this is a time before eBay and monthly price guides is all you had market info

  @Cex why ******** does your Bristol branch sell 3070’s for £300+ when you can buy em on eBay for £200 no problems? Almost everything you sell has a ridiculous mark up. 500gb nvme for £90 are you tripping?

  John Bumstead (@RDKLInc) reported 14 minutes ago

  @ValueAddedRS @southscanner @eBay Good to know, thanks! Like I said even though I've been selling for 30 years I don't see any of this cuz I simply do flat rate shipping. I guess most of the problem is USPS simply changing their dimension charges behind the scenes. USPS swapped out the mailbox on my corner with one that only takes in letters, so instead of giving them 500 small packages a year while I walk my dog, those will go to Fedex Economy instead. I'm really not a fan of USPS lately!

  Moons Card Shop (@moonscardshop) reported 16 minutes ago

  Hot take: some buyers on eBay aren't collectors. They're card hawks looking for title errors in listings to exploit for refunds. The card in the photo is the card that ships. If you received what was pictured, that's the transaction. Intentionally hunting listing mistakes to game refunds isn't collecting, it's a scam. High volume sellers deal with this more than anyone talks about 💯

  @ToeTheRubber26 @CardPurchaser As a seller on eBay, that kind of stuff really pisses me off. If there is just a minor issue with my cards, I be sure to state it clearly AND take macro photos of the issue. File a complaint with eBay to get your money back.

  Thanks a lot, jerk hole! I went looking for this book on eBay and I fell down a rabbit hole where I spent over $50 bucks on Mack Bolan novels.

  @QuindariousG35 @_bismack_ yeah local listings are impossible to catch, and as for smaller marketplaces there's always some trust issues. Not calling them out for that, but I know for a fact their ebay/TCGPlayer scraping is quite incomplete

  The other night I scrolled eBay for 5 different cards. How many sellers were well below market, zero reviews, and created in April 2026? Over 75% of the listings. @eBay fix👏🏼 this👏🏼 ****👏🏼

  @Fatal09ity @PoliteDKnight @eBay I’m assuming there’s damage not seen by two photos. eBay’s raw authentication and reship is absolutely terrible.

  @RDKLInc @eBay I don't use mobile, but it might not matter. An error on their end is generated. I had a screen shot, but I can't find it. It was one of those "something went wrong" type notifications.

  @Mattchewtheblue Honestly this is also a US problem, cards drop like a stone in Europe. Ive made more money selling spare cards to US via ebay than selling locally and thats with me covering the shipping! I dont know why that market is so inflated!

  @ALTPEPEEEEEEE The problem is for every kid that is mailing him cards to sign there are 100 grown adult men doing the same thing ruining it for the kids because they want to flip them on eBay.

  @arentalis It's a harder one to track down now, for sure — it does pop up but on ebay it's just silly prices

  @LifelessMe3 @LegacyKillaHD Fact remains: game is playable across at least 3 generations of consoles (a PS3 is 50 bucks on ebay) and PC Ubi wants to milk the same set of animations and "climb tower go down do sidequests" gameplay loop some more instead of making new **** and you're okay with that somehow 🤡

  Oof. We're selling stuff on eBay, and it's very slow. Molasses. No bueno. My brother's long-time online friend sent us some cash. It covered a Walmart trip, and got us a week of groceries. So we won't go hungry. So that's good. I typically only eat twice a day. Breakfast and lunch. I rarely have anything much for dinner. On the other hand, I found something laying in the Walmart parking lot....I think it's a capybara plushie.

  My goodness, it's hard to buy server ram. DDR5 RDIMMs aren't just expensive -- they're also out of stock everywhere. Found some on eBay and hoping for the best.

  @Matt_Rellihan @LastPackMojo I get it. I sold on eBay for years, and its a very nice touch. Of course you want buyers to come back, but people are looking on eBay for cards they want, they arent looking for your store. Returning buyers in the sports card world is rare, especially on eBay. Its more work than what its worth to put the notes in. It happens, sure, but the time you spend doing that isnt worth the number of buyers that will come back. Most buyers just want their card wrapped safely. Even then, they will give you good feedback but not remember your store the next day. Their isnt a way to "favorite" stores on eBay, only to "follow" it. So unless buyers write down and take note of your store name, they dont know which store is yours and will not come back just based on that fact alone. Ive had sellers that I loved and wanted to buy from them again but couldnt find their store the next day because I didnt write it down, and even then, eBay makes it very difficult to search for a store name (yes, I know, its dug way down in the search options). Selling here on Twitter is much more likely to have buyers come back because you can create a personal relationship with them. eBay is by nature not personal, and the note doesnt make a difference. 99 out of 100 buyers wont remember you the next time they are scrolling ebay for their favorite player. They look for teams and players, not your store. You gotta catch their attention other ways. What a personal note DOES do is take a potentially upset buyer and make it difficult for them to leave bad feedback. So maybe it has its place....but unfortunately very rarely will it ever help a buyer find you again.

  Edgar (name altered for privacy) just lost an insane amount of data. His san server had a nice 7-8 year run but spontaneously gave up the ghost … and the manufacturer no longer supports it. So he went to eBay hoping someone, somewhere, still had what he needed. That happened to one of our buyers last week. Edgar found a unit we had, bought it from our Phoenix Solutions eBay store, dropped his drives into it … … and recovered all. the. data! He dm’d us overjoyed that what was lost was now found. Edgar even offered to ship us their failed unit, just so it could be properly recycled. In 15 years of selling on eBay, no one’s ever offered that. This surfaces an often overlooked aspect to circularity. It’s not only about extending the lifespan of tech. Circularity makes what’s obsolete and discontinued still available to all the Edgar’s out there, in a bind. ITAD services aim to keep as much as possible in use for as long as possible. That’s the heartbeat of circularity. Recycling is such a catch-all concept, and the significance of all that it stands for can be easily lost on us. So know that when you say “yes” to electronics recycling you saying “yes” to circularity and Edgar’s saved data. We’re so stoked for the happy ending (and hopefully Edgar gets some redundancy and backups in place, lol). It’s moments like this make a rather labor intensive process so worth it!

  @JoshGmuwarrior @eBay @CardPurchaser Tracking is buggy right now, and even eBay has a warning on their site. They are well aware of the issue but there are a large number of untrustworthy customers taking advantage of sellers. Just file a PIP claim and get your money back. eBay sides with buyers even if they scam.

  @cryptomattk Well, the promoted listing fee was optional, and the sales tax you don't get. The eBay fee is expected, so I don't see the problem. They need to stop showing the number including the sales tax, because it does make it look like they're taking it away.
