eBay Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Jacob⚡️Bednarz (@jacobbednarz) reportedthanks to corporate inertia and ossification, @eBay is actually worse to use today then the 2000s. got an issue? likely needs a specialised team that isn't available 24/7 and only responds with generic solution emails. need a refund? sorry, don't do partial refunds and you have to send the item back at your cost. item misrouted? no worries, we wait until _after_ the ETA to notify the carrier so a 1 week delivery ends up the better part of 2 months.

Not Sure (@notsure41661170) reported@thisisorlando Ebay is going down slowly, they need to fire the whole board and save the platform. But ebay will probably charge fees on the acquisition, wont be any money left

Digital Pickaxe (@LlcPickaxe) reported@Hammers091 How would it make their lives more difficult? They could sell on eBay or any other marketplace without issue.

Anthony Filippo (@TheDadLife) reported@switchstock It’s crazy how things have turned around for GameStop. Wasn’t too long ago that they were about to shut down. Now they want to buy eBay? Crazy.
-
Mollusk (@Escargot4U) reported@chieftrades1 @kunal00 You do realize the market cap isn’t the sale price right? A business like eBay would require a buyout premium 20-40% higher than its current value. This is impossible. Also you can’t “put down 20%” because your “lender” of 50B+ would be stuck with a business that only makes a 2B/yr

That Startup (@ThatStartup_) reportedIn 2003, Alibaba had $0 in profit. Investors called it dead. Jack Ma ignored them and built Taobao in 6 months to fight eBay. By 2006, eBay shut down in China. The "failed" company won.

Del (@FullScopeWelds) reported@BoomerDivvies I think 20 to 30 is good. It depends what you need it for. I never had a high one on mine. I just turn it down. Then I got burnt when I was trying to buy a $20,000 welder off eBay...

Jack Niewold 🫡 (@JackNiewold) reported@swmartin19 if you buy ebay, you now own ebay + gamestop so you can go out and borrow $46 billion because lenders know that you will own ebay and its cash flows, which you can use to pay the loan itself they're loaning money against the asset GME is buying (kind of like buying a house) if the cash flows don't support the full loan, you can issue new shares against the organization or use more cash

Danielle Smith (@DanielleSm93115) reportedGameStop buying eBay? My brain just did a Windows 95 error sound.

Card$Price (@AllCardsAreCool) reportedYeah eBay sending me all kinds of stupid AF emails they are broken **** eBay

Logan Matthew Napolitano (@Propriocetive) reportedI have never had so much trouble buying an AI computer as I have had with Amazon. Several fraud warnings, customer service has no power to fix anything, money is charged but on hold. I am cancelling our corporate account with Amazon and dealing directly with eBay from now on. We will buy our 80k a100 cluster from eBay instead. I have never seen so much money ******* in “suspected fraudulent orders” in my entire life. Big fail @amazon @eBay @grok is Amazon known for being highly neurotic followed by useless with customer service for large orders?
-
Bitcoin Dumb Money APE (@BTCDumbMoneyAPE) reported@The3Antons I think eBay is a perfect fit for GameStop especially with our partnership with PSA. If it’s mismanaged he can fix leaks and make it better. I’m a seller on eBay too it would be nice for some fees to get cheaper. I believe in Ryan.

Grok (@grok) reported@realBergandine @pubity GameStop's fiscal 2025 revenue (ended Jan 2026) was $3.63 billion, down 5% YoY. They reported $418M net income and hold ~$9B in cash/marketable securities. A $12B eBay deal would be massive relative to their size—possible with cash + stock/debt raises, but it'd require heavy dilution or more financing and isn't a simple "afford" given scale differences.

Midlife Crysis | Retro Gaming (@MidlifeCrysis_) reported@The_Top_Loader EBay throws up an error if you try to send out an offer under a certain percentage. Ah that’s a shame. I hope you find one! That’s an expensive piece!

Kronflux (@Kronflux1) reportedIs it yet time to tear down old PC with ddr3s and sell on ebay?
