Unplugged Game Boy
(@RetroRelapstic) reported
Well I got refunded for the Silent Hill 2 game not working which is nice. So I purchased another gam off eBay for the GameCube! It’s one of my fave games and I forgot it originated on the system.

@BasedCardGuy The system is broken compared to an actual usps tracking number. I've bought many items from ebay shipped standard and received them. Sometimes a couple weeks later but they arrive. Some people may have no patience or are just making false claims.

Cards for Sale 😎
(@BasedCardGuy) reported
@SJweasy408 Yeah i’ve had that happen as well so it makes me feel like they will arrive at some point but people just don’t like waiting and eBay just gives the refund even if it was scanned. Definitely a broken system. I feel at times people are scamming as well because at times it won’t say delivered but I’ll get a good review so I assume its arrived but it makes me think that if it doesn’t say delivered people can just say they didn’t get it even if they did.

@BowTiedBroke Selling used items on Amazon is a lot more restrictive than it used to be. Amazon requires the same ability to prove your item is authentic even if it is a used item. An eBay invoice, Goodwill receipt, or garage sale receipt is not going to work in Amazon's eyes for proving that that item is authentic. It isn't a big deal if you're selling a few used items around your house, but if you are trying to scale a multi-million dollar operation on used items, it is a lot more riskier these days. All it takes is for one inauthentic complaint to shut you down, this has happened before in the textbook category where someone had sourced it used and then received a complaint from the publisher of it being counterfeit, and it actually was. There is no way to prove that that item was authentic.

@eBay Refused to remove the Feedback. Also they spelt my name wrong on the email. Professional. They want me to put in the description how the inside of the sealed product looks. So..Open it, See how it looks then reseal it? Thats the original problem He's saying I did! #eBay

@RWCR14 I only I have one issue now - the Tom Baker Doctor Who cover, which I bought from Ebay twenty years ago. All my original issues were thrown out by my ex-sibling

@theoliverxp @FlipAlert @SaulSellsStuff This advice is outdated. It all comes down to this- how can you prove your item is authentic. Ebay, goodwill, thrift store invoices aren't going to work. Depends on your risk tolerance. I can source new items just as easily.

Please put down the crazy
(@JosieLewis2019) reported
@Iraqveteran8888 Yes, but so many of us gave up on shipping because of it. I completely shut down my eBay because their alert system sucks and a customer asked for a refund so I had to "pay extra" for something that never even shipped. I'll never do business with eBay again.

@MineTrainSmoker @CardPurchaser @eBay I had a guy asked me to show him Photos of the card I was selling . Took it out the plastic sent him the photos, told him to inspect the photos and if there’s an issue point it out to me, so I can fix the issue. He won the card and somehow the card was scratched when he got it.

@NameUnknown21 @CardPurchaser @eBay Sounds very similar. I know there are people who may be shady when selling and try to get one over on people but while I'm not a regular seller I have sold several cards over $1k with no problems. Unfortunately, sketch cards don't get sent for authentication which I think is wrong because if the scratch had been there it never would have went further.

Raccoon of ****
(@JackTheRaccoon1) reported
@AmazonHelp @AskeBay @USPSHelp I need help because my package from ebay is trapped in an Amazon parcel locker delivered by usps, and for whatever reason, it went down as the postal carrier was delivering it, so neither Amazon nor my apartment complex can get it back

@eBay your customer service is a joke. I’ve been leaving messages for a rep that is working on my account and the reps are NOT leaving messages!!! Been having this issues since the beginning of August! Not even an email that I can try to reach to

Sac Card Collects
(@SacCollects) reported
@mcstrobe @CardPurchaser I had a somewhat similar issue recently. Trust me when I say take the return (for now). I can tell you you my full saga but eBay really screwed me but it probably would have worked differently if I didn’t try to decline. Make him send you photos of ALL cards pulled though before
