eBay Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • IanBorrett ian (@IanBorrett) reported

    @manfred698 @eBay My son never got badly injured because of them. I think the blades are the biggest problem. They can cause some nasty cuts. The tackling isn't as bad as it used to be so it kind of balances out.

  • Foone foone (@Foone) reported

    @squigglefang not in my experience. The problem is that most of the ones on ebay are being sold to industrial customers, and priced appropriately: 100$ is bare minimum, and most halfway decent ones are like 300$+ I got most of mine at local junk stores and flea markets

  • ngtcollectibles NGTCollectibles (@ngtcollectibles) reported

    @Hobby_Connect Even if this was for a card I really wanted, I'm saying no to this request. I don't mess with this kind of thing on ebay because if they find out, your account can get shut down. Beyond that, what an odd message the guy sent you.

  • Onesmallvoice4 One Small Voice (@Onesmallvoice4) reported

    @bekkaley @GrandpaPampa @eBay I really can't see what the police can do apart from maybe make contact with the buyer who will just say it was broken and it will be classed as a civil matter. I just can't do it, I don't have the energy anymore. I have too much else going on there's no room for anything else.

  • camkrat Cam Kratovil (@camkrat) reported

    @eBay @AskeBay you are the worst service ever known to man and I nor anybody I associate with will ever use you again. You are terrible.

  • pristine10cards JB2020 (@pristine10cards) reported

    @AskeBay within your new shipping service for sports cards, the return address automatically prints the ebay store name. Even if u go 2 settings & change the address, it won’t update. Showing the store name basically tells everyone there are “sportscards” in the envelope! Fix!

  • BeNiceAll2021 Heidi Schaffnit (@BeNiceAll2021) reported

    FUN DAY MONDAY time! Answer the following question to be entered into the drawing for a $25 Amazon gift cert. What was the first item sold on eBay? a) Broken Laser Pointer; b) Tickle Me Elmo; c) Beanie Baby; d) 45 rpm Record? 1 of 2 #FunDayMonday #FreeDrawing #GoBuffs

  • marissabee_ Ris Dollaz (@marissabee_) reported

    I want the pink posty crocs so bad that I’m considering putting in a bid on eBay for $250 😭😭😭 I have a problem

  • WallyGhuneim Wally Ghuneim (@WallyGhuneim) reported

    @YoJaffe @eBay I'm guessing here, but I think it's an ACH issue. My guess is that PayPal, like Chime and other "get check early" banks, doesn't wait for the ACH to clear and makes the funds available right away. With managed sending to your bank, there's that delay.

  • shminsington Lindsey Mosswraith (@shminsington) reported

    @JustWriteHayden And then when I went through the rigmarole of trying to actually talk to a person it was like "consider contacting eBay to resolve this issue" and I was like "WHAT ******** IS HAPPENING."

  • SirStrange_ just Stace. (@SirStrange_) reported

    I would love for @eBay to actually solve the issue that they created for me and not have their Customer Service Manager Anna from Escalations sit on the phone on mute until I hang up

  • ngtcollectibles NGTCollectibles (@ngtcollectibles) reported

    @WallyGhuneim @YoJaffe @eBay Ebay is so large at this point that they should be finding ways to work with banks to cut down these wait times. My experience has been ok so far, but it would great if I was only waiting 1 to 2 days on all payments. That would really help with cash flow.

  • yoomgiloml lissy⁷ (@yoomgiloml) reported

    An hour ago someone put up Woojin pc’s on eBay for 15€ aND now they’re down to 3 dhjsk

  • ralph23jays Ralph (@ralph23jays) reported

    @card_kt eBay error /glitch they resend soon

  • Onesmallvoice4 One Small Voice (@Onesmallvoice4) reported

    @GloryRozeBud @eBay In my case they bought it, collected it, claimed it was broken (it wasn't) and then got to keep it and get a full refund. Ebay told me it happens all the time but nothing anyone can do.

  • wesome__ Tempestor (@wesome__) reported

    @MattChiney Ordered from chinese sellers on ebay using postglobal before without issues, never ntn pensive doe

  • CharlyMaxim Clix (@CharlyMaxim) reported

    @KentBradsher @Jack74823834 @NintendoUpd8s Yup. Dumped all my GC to my Wii U, plus a big collection of downloaded GBA and SNES games on it, and some Sega CD to boot. You can’t buy those games anymore so I have no issue downloading them. Any sales those games would still make would go to an eBay seller.

  • dove_0814 deborah williams (@dove_0814) reported

    @eBay Why is it so difficult getting InTouch with a live person Your service is terrible. Why should people be subject to try to communicate with a bot. You guys restricted my account for no reason and didnt offer an explanation. I am new to your platform and this is unacceptable

  • SD_Sarcaster Sarcaster (Logan) (@SD_Sarcaster) reported

    @YoJaffe @eBay I haven't had any issues with managed payments yet - other than the higher fees, that is. But my money is always in my account just a couple days after the item is paid for. I wonder why there seems to be so much variance between sellers.

  • noisyminoritysf Noisyminority (@noisyminoritysf) reported

    @CardAnalytics99 @CardPurchaser Grading them is hard...centering issues galore. For those who can accumulate 10s on 86, 87 donruss without ebay... you should play the lottery cuz u lucky

  • keeks_lolo KELolo (@keeks_lolo) reported

    @jasminesyours Should have took the number down and looked on eBay

  • albrecht1968 bishop (@albrecht1968) reported

    @nobodyhere23 @BlackLavender30 @TMZ The McDonalds lady got seriously burned. the coffee was near boiling. Her skin is going to die soon if she cant get that hair helmet removed. she can sell it on ebay to a collector so generations will know not to glue their hair down.

  • colinkeose colinkeose (@colinkeose) reported

    @thesefootytimes Assuming economical why not offer reprints with a good return to the writers and possibly a chosen charity? The first few issues would gain plenty traction and stop these rip off merchants on eBay. I’d rather the money went into @thesefootytimes and those in need.

  • hyeprincess7 Amy B (@hyeprincess7) reported

    I'm very disappointed that my eBay coupon kept giving me an error code, and despite many attempts, I was never able to use it, and @ebay refuses to fix it.

  • Loso413 Jason Loso (@Loso413) reported

    @IGN It's about time. The only problem is big business like Sony Inc and courage it and only release certain amounts to cause shortages... Why you ask? Because 85% of the scalpers on eBay are part of Sony Inc either on their payroll or supporters. It's all big business.

  • zack0978 Zack Cunningham (@zack0978) reported

    @gmac817 @Dboss324 I went like 8-9 months with no problems at all then all the sudden it seemed like once a week I was dealing with some scum bag on there and eBay would never help. Even when I would report issues

  • gIoomyclock ㅎㅅㅎ (@gIoomyclock) reported

    @fiveltm OMG? i’m currently causing problems on ebay trying to find the ones i want

  • JacobWolf Jacob Wolf (@JacobWolf) reported

    @chhopsky @PremThottumkara @RealBenGilbert Sony A6 series are good starters. Have an A6300 I bought used off a liquidation sale on eBay from a camera shop in Tennessee that shut down due to COVID. Got it very cheap compared to normal price. Worthwhile, but doesn't sound like it fits Ben's use case well.

  • jarrahtarrah JerryTerry (@jarrahtarrah) reported

    @lostkagamine I've honestly never had a problem with a DS2. Had a dodgy DS1, but I lucked out with the 2s. Are they not still commonly sold on like ebay or stuff? I wonder if there's some sort of adapter that lets you use DS3/4s on a PS2...
