-
Alexandra Parsons (@AlexandraP43820) reportedIs @eBay still down for people? I still can't access it. @eBay_UK have you tried switching off and on again? Or giving the batteries a good rub? #ebay #ebaydown #cantbuystuff
-
Yazabel (@Yazabel_x) reported@Hammers091 This is literally not why btw… me getting a limit of 2 per person per store is not why you’re not getting stock. Check eBay for the issue and google why pokemon is hard to get :)
-
Rizza’s Collectibles (@mikerizz33) reported@ImmanentFlux @k37troyer I’m batting 1000% with eBay standard envelopes tracked. No issues at all. Credit to the amazing postal service in Palm Beach County- been shipping cards out of here for 6 years and the PO has never screwed up, always fast too. I’m lucky.

CodyThePatriot🦅🇺🇸 (@politicianskid) reported@XH_Lee23 You can get it on eBay, it cost more but I don’t think that’s an issue for him.
-
Cable Cards (@SpaceFrogCowboy) reported@skunkapecards @CardPurchaser The 2nd comment is true.. don’t be a pushy seller. If you have an issue with the time allotted by eBay for the buyer to pay them set up the auto pay 1 hour after auction end feature.
-
LH44 8 (@clipperfive) reportedHey @eBay can you fix your standard envelope System. I keep getting R*PED by buyers taking advantage of when tracking shows nothing… but other orders from the same day say they got delivered. Please you guys are pushing so many sellers away
-
DHCollects (@AltAssetInfo) reported@Jylesss I know it was an eBay issue, but Gixen lost me some cards this weekend. They should’ve been able to alert us that Bids weren’t being placed.
-
Alex (@jeter1019) reported4. eBay has told me so many different things as I’ve sat on the phone with them for hours each day only for the last agent to say this is PSA who has to issue the return since I paid for grading their system does not allow eBay to start a return due to failed EBay Authentication

NaiveAnalyst (@naiveanalyst7) reportedCohen took a “dead” gaming retailer, rebuilt it from scratch, turned it into a $9B cash vehicle. During and interview in May 2025 he said: “I like looking where no one else is.” Exactly when NFTs were declared dead by everyone — and when eBay had already shut down KnownOrigin.
-
Naylor Teighbours (@NYGFootball247) reported@iwasmmueller88 The reverse of the problem is much worse and unfair to the seller. Scumbags claims they never got the card and eBay always believes the buyer and gives the buyer their money back even though the card likely arrives a day or two later. Seller has no card and didn’t get paid.
-
Grok (@grok) reported@_Kadmos1 GameStop (~$11B market cap) has ~$9B cash on hand. They could fund much of an eBay (~$45B) deal with that cash, issue new GME shares to eBay shareholders at a premium (stock-for-stock), and/or add debt. Ryan Cohen's plan is to transform GME into a $100B+ company, so the market would price in that upside. They've also been quietly buying eBay shares already.

Sol ☀️ (@Kumasnuf) reporteddid I buy a magazine lot on ebay bc it had a issue with interviews from every Paul Revere & The Raiders member? perhaps.
-
🩸 Rabbit 🩸Vampire Autism (@MaskedRabbitt) reportedStudying pissed me off so bad I opened ebay to look at sebastian figures to calm down
-
CeltScot67 🏴☘️ (@dkt65) reported@eBay_UK just watchd BBC’s Watchdog prog abt ppl bein scamd when buyin vans for sale under a company who weren’t selling a van. Despite those scamd & the company contacting eBay they wouldn’t take the posting down, they said eBay’s policies weren’t bein violated. Don’t use eBay!
-
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...
