  • EpicWizardGuy That Epic Wizard Guy (@EpicWizardGuy) reported

    @AOC why is this a thing? "Effective next year, sellers on certain online platforms like Etsy and eBay will receive a 1099-K if their sales are at least $600, down from the current threshold of $20,000 with a minimum of 200 transactions." ****** those with less $ again? wtf?

  • boberfly Alex Fuller (@boberfly) reported

    @richgel999 I got a similar setup here 2xE5-2680v2 but it was an ebay special ex-vfx machine. Rock-solid as well, but I've repurposed it to a server now after upgrading to a TR... :)

  • heistypokerdlr William Heist (@heistypokerdlr) reported

    @j_riner25 I couldn't find anything but I'm having trouble when searching sold comps on Ebay

  • KrisBartels Kris (@KrisBartels) reported

    After looking at my eBay and paypal transactions....i think i am going to be in some trouble. Any #CPA that can help?

  • agustddtsuga ✨abby ⁷✨ (@agustddtsuga) reported

    buying another vintage pointy collar colorful 70s button down blouse on ebay just to feel something

  • MelioraHenning Meliora Henning (@MelioraHenning) reported

    @JLsPerspective I mean, I've got the three core books from eBay with little issue. It's the other supplemental material that's iffy--mostly a question of price / affordability vs overall value to me.

  • SuperBlakeFilms BlakeDekarski (@SuperBlakeFilms) reported

    @GifZelda No but I like to buy the old issues on eBay and collect the posters.

  • Bardvarks ✨🔱✨ (@Bardvarks) reported

    Somehow i got signed out of my eBay and i couldnt remember my old login info so i just made a whole new eBay account just to buy Elrond

  • FrancescaCose Francesca Cosentino (@FrancescaCose) reported

    @AliExpress_EN Don't spend money to send me e-mails and to put your pop-ups on my browsing pages; I will not buy any of the nice&convenient things that are on your site until I find that I can talk to a human who helps me to solve problems; as happens on Amazon and Ebay

  • Lt_Ironfox LT Ironfox (@Lt_Ironfox) reported

    @gamesyouloved I worked on one of those. Almost owned it. It was half working but the parts to fix the thing were too rare. Nowadays you can buy anything on eBay.

  • LandOLakesCards Land O Lakes Cards (@LandOLakesCards) reported

    @StackPg @CardPurchaser And I’m calling out the guys on eBay misleading you with that dot error card

  • StackPg PG-Stack_Sales (@StackPg) reported

    @LandOLakesCards @CardPurchaser Are you calling me one? I am just trying to learn about the collection. New to collecting baseball and just noticed “error” mentioned for Donruss when searching eBay so went back to my lot to see what I had in mine.

  • BrittA2211 Toss a Coin to Your Photographer (@BrittA2211) reported

    But my main concern now is: How do I avoid being scammed on Ebay? Ive heard of so many people having someone buy an item off them, and then claim it didnt arrive, or arrived broken, and PayPal always sides with them without them having to send it back. How do I avoid that?

  • GoddamityDoguin Amity The Doguin (@GoddamityDoguin) reported

    @CutieDiablo @FurrywolfWolfy Also check to see if you get an iTunes connection, if no iTunes connection and the same result, likely a battery or firmware issue (try battery first- iPhone 7 batteries are like $8-$10 on eBay)

  • brokemyninja BrokeMyNinja (@brokemyninja) reported

    @Bears_EatBeets @XboxSoftmodKit The OG Xbox had 3 different DVD ROM drives depending on the manufacturer date. The Thompson Drive was the best one (especially for modding) and minimal failure rate. You might be able to find one on EBay and swap them without issues. They arent hard encoded except for read discs.

  • Bardvarks ✨🔱✨ (@Bardvarks) reported

    @larsaddams I love how EBay accounts sincerely like dont matter. Like i lose NOTHING by losing my login info.

  • part_time_emo Shan🌸 (@part_time_emo) reported

    @wolfnsunflowers It sucks, there always an issue with my meds each month😔 going to ask if I can go on the online system so that way I'll know they'll definitely be ordered and available to pick up otherwise I'll be buying off eBay istg x

  • EdRecker Ed Recker (@EdRecker) reported

    1/2 Sometimes I swear... eBay buyers. I sell a Topps Chrome BGS 9 with an 8.5 surface sub. Dude contacts me upon receipt and says he’s “concerned about the surface due to issues not in the photos”. I let him know the surface sub was 8.5... and he requests a return.

  • GoosefromBalto Guptill89 (@GoosefromBalto) reported

    @naoebii @hololive_En Yeah but the unfortunate problem will be that it’ll end up going for well over that on eBay. I wanted to get the Gen III+ Sora plushies they released earlier this year with tsukumo but missed them, and now they’re going for 2-4x the price. It’s like, FOMO but worse

  • Brebgon_ Brebgon (@Brebgon_) reported

    @kattefunky I would either try to fix it or just sell it on eBay

  • crustycymsock Emanuel (@crustycymsock) reported

    @TracysTakeover Ebay. Or just take it apart and fix it

  • TravisSMcClain TravisSMcClain (@TravisSMcClain) reported

    Alright, I've gone down a rabbit hole and need help. Trying to identify the model of my first TV. It was a 13" color Emerson, circa 1990-1. Plenty of those on eBay, etc. But mine had a jack for an included mono earphone, and I can't find any such critter online anywhere.

  • seminolephin1 Nc_Nole (@seminolephin1) reported

    @ebay has a section on their sight called "black americana" and it is down right disrespectful. They make money off these items.

  • mothboy2 Saturninebear loves BTS (@mothboy2) reported

    I wish selling on eBay didn't fill me with total anxiety. But it does. I'm hoping to put one of my graded cards up this week, but I'm just overwhelmed by the anxiety of it. Buying isn't an issue, so why does selling make me feel like this?

  • Gnew_cards G (@Gnew_cards) reported

    @ENSportsCards1 It really is. Surely as much as this “hobby” has grown, they would find this and put a stop to it. Amazon has worked hard at sort of “regulating” it’s market place and now eBay needs to react. I bet this isn’t a new problem though

  • Konnorwolf Konnor (@Konnorwolf) reported

    @Sairyswolf Facebook marketplace, offerup etc... are too slow and far too many messages that go nowhere. eBay has a much better chance of selling thus making it worth it most times.

  • seminolephin1 Nc_Nole (@seminolephin1) reported

    @eBay has a whole section that they make money on called "black americana" and it is down right disrespectful but if it makes money I guess it is ok.

  • Toxin21 Carnage (@Toxin21) reported

    @PSUdotcom The best thing about having physical copys is the game never disapears... you can buy it used on ebay or amazon for instance, now for digital only games and online only, once servers are down your screwed, this has a physical release so it wont disapear...

  • halie_ryan Halie Ryan (@halie_ryan) reported

    @PemdyPriority Hi. Why are these so much more expensive than the identical ones on ebay? This that why you are closing down after only just opening?

  • Katie_H7 Katie da WeatherNerd (@Katie_H7) reported

    @AskeBay My ebay address is updated on my account, but when I printed out a shipping label, it had an old address on it. What can I do to fix this?
