Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • markwyss Mark (@markwyss) reported

    @eBay_UK @eBay have not received funds that eBay is showing have been sent to me. Your help system in the app is terrible please advise how I sort

  • PBalOfficial P-Bal 👩‍🚀 (@PBalOfficial) reported

    @Wigan_Steven @DeanBStephenson The problem now is that a lot of shops sit and look through eBay for what people are *asking* for items, not what they are actually *selling* for, and it creates some extreme prices!

  • jpaglier Justin (@jpaglier) reported

    @bahamutfan @eBay Happens to me constantly with xstation listings. I'm convinced it's other sellers since there seems to be a handful that never get taken down.

  • LindaConvissor Linda Convissor (@LindaConvissor) reported

    @pearlrhein @oliviastowell I’m at the other age range of this problem, but want to add that I’ve found clothes on eBay to be better quality and less expensive than the same items on Poshmark and Mercari. And ditto to the black skirt, ivory blouse, can’t go wrong.

  • 4thSnake The4thSnake (@4thSnake) reported

    If a figure arrives from Ebay and it's broken in two at the waist and lacking a base, and the seller offers to refund half the money, do you think that's acceptable?

  • EastBoundBeast Werewolf From the East (@EastBoundBeast) reported

    @K9__EXE That sucks :( I'm still ******* fuming that they took down Sonic Unleashed from streaming services, like, I literally had to buy a PS3 off eBay and a copy of Sonic Unleashed just to ******* play it, like, wtf Sonic Team just port Unleashed to PC already or something jfc smfh

  • RPCanaryPI Canary P.I. Podcast (@RPCanaryPI) reported

    @Johnnyblu84 The prices came way down on eBay and it's not a bootleg. Got it for 30, it used to be like 75 not long ago. Just a tip!

  • mizohdamka damka (@mizohdamka) reported

    @ChuckBaggett @johnsimonwijaya @JonErlichman Making the franken-os was a bit of trouble, but FUN trouble. And it let me use 1.5+ GB of RAM, which it didn't know quite what to do with it, so I made a .7GB RAM disk lol. Top shelf parts circa 1999-2000. Cost me maybe $200 from eBay.

  • SpaceCaleb Caleb’s Space (@SpaceCaleb) reported

    @comicfoil eBay is the Wild West. While often a source of great finds, almost a quarter of the time it seems like outright deception, selling of broken items.

  • Copastetik Court case, briefcase, suitcase, cases of… (@Copastetik) reported

    They been on eBay trying to talk me down on this Merm since November. Like I ain't got this **** up for half the price already. I'm bout to just take this **** down and wear it. It's cold.

  • RetroDigitalLLC Retro Digital (@RetroDigitalLLC) reported

    @bahamutfan @eBay That sucks man. Ebay can be ridiculous. I had all my install listings taken down a few months back because the condition was set to "seller refurbished." eBay also doesn't seem to like anything with the word "XStation" in it.

  • MinnyMinxxx Minny Minx (@MinnyMinxxx) reported

    @RileyMarshallTO @PoppyinPortland This! I joined SW just a year before sesta fosta and I don’t feel like I can relate to ****** who advertised in magazines and women who sold ***** ******* on eBay but the Mastercard/Visa attack that followed and took down all my main niches I produced was what ****** me up

  • slphilxyz digital creature (@slphilxyz) reported

    @84n3d Driver problems? What year is this, 2010? I haven't had driver issues in over a decade because I buy Thinkpads on eBay, which is the correct way to be a Linux user. No idea what you're talking about with the expired certs. How are you causing that?

  • dx_hate_ DxHate (@dx_hate_) reported

    @VP Do you want non government issue authentic never walked in, with original box and laces Batman Bathin’ Apes I’m trying to cop $450-650 for them I will list them on eBay soon They’re cool. I could do a lot with about $500

  • DarrylSquires1 Always Red (@DarrylSquires1) reported

    Retracted.... 3 months on... and 6 conversations and @eBay broken every promise to resolve despite saying they will every time we have spoken.. #ebay #customerservice

  • Sneakers_more Sneakers (@Sneakers_more) reported

    @goatsupport eBay is way better platform to sell items, atleast the have a customer service and pay people out. Terrible support for someone who sold close to 100 items in 1 month. DO NOT do business with them

  • the_realghostx RealGhost (@the_realghostx) reported

    @Falling_Nova @JeremyNuzum @Wario64 Same I was about to say that too, the 4080s in my local BB are in stock and on ebay they are only 100 above msrp. The 4080 was already a terrible value, so there is no way consumers will be paying almost 2x just for a card that is in stock

  • AGKytka Alexandra Kytka-Sharpe (@AGKytka) reported

    If price was the only issue, you can get a plethora of great coffee table books secondhand- I’ve used AbeBooks and eBay in the past (and charity shops)

  • JeffPovey2 Jeff Povey (@JeffPovey2) reported

    @Vdweller They are not obscure, easily available on eBay, Amazon for less than £1, and definitely better than broken and bloodied fingers. Jack's advice is literally using a sledgehammer to crack a nut ! OK, adults use a hammer & knife to open a tin, what about young teens ?

  • jmwilt21 Jason W (@jmwilt21) reported

    @DirtyTesLa It's insane how terrible Ebay is for their sellers. I get that they need to make sure sellers aren't scamming people, but they seem to not do anything to prevent buyers from scamming people. I almost lost a $700 phone due to this and I haven't sold on ebay since.

  • Tengadalay Bahirzaf (@Tengadalay) reported

    @Hawzien @hyperallergic @hragv At least looted items popped up on eBay.A blessing in disguise since the internet never forgets, right? What is very funny is how people jump & down when they see their own lies on white people’s publications. As if that prevented million poor Tigrayans dying.

  • COMEDIANGAMBLER COMEDIAN GAMBLER (@COMEDIANGAMBLER) reported

    @eBay YOU GUYS DO "PERIODIC PERFORMANCE REVIEW" AND RUIN SELLERS LIVLIHOOD...WHO ******** IS GOING TO WAIT 15 DAYS FOR YOU GUYS TO RELEASE MONEY...FIX YOUR STUPID ******* POLICIES EBAY...SELLERS ARE TIRED OF THE STUPID BULLSHIT!!! & NONSENSE HOLDS!!! **** YOU EBAY!!!

  • JRLCards JRLCards (@JRLCards) reported

    @whodattodd @CardPurchaser And eBay standard is .81 and also has tracking? Not sure what the point is exactly but most buyer aren’t looking to spend 30%+ on shipping. I’ve seen a lot more movement since offering eBay standard and this is my first issue in ~50 shipments. Not too bad.

  • EL_teacake EL-Teacake (@EL_teacake) reported

    @Mrs_Feendish Well I run a non-kink EBay store & can reassure you that lots of customers seem to be successfully managing a very dry EBay January,,,, but that might also be down to cost of living crisis

  • gigglingchaotic Stinky Cat (@gigglingchaotic) reported

    @vintagecoyote Ah, lanacostumes. Seen them floating around forever on ebay. I always wondered why lavafox got so much hate when this person has pretty much the same issues

    @ChocChipPony What about EBay? I don’t know what their fees are but I have bought quite a lot of brand new stuff from EBay over the years. Never had an issue as a buyer x

  • thisyear101 brian isaacs 💙 (@thisyear101) reported

    You are aware that hacking someone’s phone and making them pay more for an eBay bid is not as bad as using fear and paranoia to control someone. Plus just treating them like a problem most their life right?

  • RamenSymbiote Check Me Out On Bandcamp! (@RamenSymbiote) reported

    @Sephiyroth I've never been that big of a PS2 guy, so for me I'm down. I've seen some reviews that mention some reliability with older PS2 games and less strenuous Wii games on the RG505, so that's good enough for me. You could always just grab an SBC with 16gb RAM for real cheap on eBay.

  • RagingJupiter Border Crossing Guard (@RagingJupiter) reported

    Buying any kind of expensive tech off eBay is just asking for a world of spyware and problems.
