eBay Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Jack Dillard (@Kraven1776) reported@ValueAddedRS @PhantomBlack699 Ryan wants the naked short selling criminals to double down, leverage up, plant their feet. Then while they thought they won and stopped GameStop Ryan, he comes from left field with Teddy, and eBay is not involved. Shorts scramble but are levered up and unable to move.

William the Sculptor (@PaqWilly) reported@Joferjeff I had an issue with ebay a year ago. They kept trying to charge me for transactions that never went through. I contacted the BBB and filed a complaint. Ebay backed down and zeroed out my debt.

Hungry Hobo (@TeslaP90DL) reported@Bob_Bingi45 @M46726805 @mrfundman It’s simple you can get a new module for a model S for $200 on eBay.. 9 times out of 10 if there’s a problem, it’s just with one of the modules and your back on the road.. do you realize that they have a eight year 150k mile warranty on the battery and powertrain?

comet1224 (@comet1224_) reported@pxisonedyxuth Ebay buyers can leave 1-star reviews for sellers like I mentioned. On Bunjang, I can't leave reviews for these transactions with disputes. So even the biggest scammers on Bunjang have 5-star ratings, or 4.8 at worst. These same sellers would get shut down on Ebay within a week.

Koopa119 🍉 (@ThePissMan2) reported@UhFoxx I will note that prices ARE going down. A few days ago the average ebay listing was at like 110, so them going down to like 90 this quickly is a good sign!!!

52 WL x StonksIsGood (@StonksIsGood) reported@Joferjeff I still use eBay, but it's been annoying ever since they stopped letting you leave a negative review on buyers. Would save a lot of sellers some trouble

The_Astronaut (@The_Astronaut18) reported@Joferjeff Some years ago I was refurbishing laptops as a side gig on Ebay. I focused on a couple models replacing mainboards, screens, etc. I had a return policy. It wasn't a huge money maker, but it generated a couple grand a year, basically vacation money. It went great until one customer filed a claim >90 days after they had received the laptop. Ebay sided with them (at first) and locked my entire Paypal account. Now I couldn't buy inventory. It took weeks of back and forth and eventually resolved in my favor. After that, I withdrew all my money and closed down the side gig.

Makker's Echoes (Mk2) (@EchoesAyThGlen) reported@Joferjeff A guy bought three model trains off me once (all of which went dead cheap), had a clear bout of buyer's regret and then weaponised his disability ("I can't fix one loose pipe, my hands are shaky!") and forced me to take the most expensive one back. Ebay helped him to harass me.

JoninCenTex (@jonincentex_) reported@Artemizia_123 @eBay @WhwreIsMyMoney I 100% agree. You used to be able to trust eBay to do the right thing now their only goal now when there's a problem is to shut you up and shut you down and decide in favor of the seller. Recently a package was misdelivered to the wrong address and the shipper sent photos showing it was delivered to the wrong address. EBay in its idiocy lets the digital assistant decide such cases and because the shipping company said it was delivered they said I won't get a refund and closed the claim. Their digital assistant is too stupid to understand that a product being misdelivered to the wrong mystery address is not the same as a product being delivered to me at the correct address. I predict eBay has 5 years to go before it abandons the USA. This total lack of customer service and lack of respect and appreciation is what drives customers away, And a Hallmark of businesses that end up failing

N.E.Will (@TheRealNickW86) reported@Michael_i_Leib @NFL1stLook @greenstoslopes It’s eBay that’s responsible for it after authentication though so it’s not an issue for the buyer. I’m starting to wonder why you’re simping so hard for ****** buyers?

Creig Stephens (@creigstephens) reportedMost people saw GameStop’s offer to buy eBay and thought: “That’s crazy.” I saw something different: A company trying to buy its way into a better business model. But here’s the problem: Buying the machine doesn’t mean you can run the machine. That’s the lesson founders should study.

JeppG (@jeppg1111) reported@Joferjeff Hate to hear it. I’ve had positive experiences with eBay. I’d say I’m right at six years as well and don’t recall a single time where I felt betrayed by the company. In fact, I thought they valued the seller way more than Amazon ever did. I parted ways with Amazon after a deactivation. I hope eBay don’t let me down. I’ve got a lot to sell, yet. I hope your situation gets resolved. With your track record, seems pretty clear you did your part. I saw a lot of degrading remarks in the comments about eBay too. It makes me shake my head in discontentment.

The Verve Daily (@vervedaily) reported@MoniqueSchramm I’m working on finding a copy of the actual issue these pictures are from, but all I have in terms of success is proof the issue exists 😭 hopefully someone puts a copy up on eBay or something sometime soon!
