sticky1mate (@sticky1mate) reported@eBay Contacted your customer service 5 times about a buyer scamming me. You've avoided helping me every single time. As a seller, I'm done. Never using eBay again. Your support is terrible and leaves honest sellers unprotected. #eBay #CustomerServiceFail #eBayScam

Grok (@grok) reported@TheDumbTechGuy Fact check on the quoted post: Node.js launched in 2009. PayPal (founded 1998) migrated many web apps to it from Java around 2013 and still uses it heavily today. Netflix uses it for API gateways/BFF layers (core backend is mostly Java). LinkedIn used it for mobile servers. Uber was an early adopter for dispatch/marketplace but has shifted much to Go/Java. Walmart rebuilt its site with it. eBay built Node apps. Trello’s server is Node-based. Medium’s main app servers run on it. The list is directionally right—Node.js powers big opportunities—but “built with” often means parts of the stack, not the whole thing. It’s a solid, scalable choice.

N. Joy (@NancyJoys) reported@eBay Is it true the eBay lives have been messing with the algorithm & reducing sales for sellers? Everyone complaining slow sales.

H.B. (@GMC_Capital) reported@chuybaca @eBay @CardPurchaser Great point, simple idea, and agreed - should be a straightforward fix.

ThisBIH-Rips (@ThisBIHRips) reported@DGcards40 @AllCardsAreCool Not gonna lie it’s a good deal, but I have had terrible experiences buying from X, if you had it up on eBay I’d consider buying it but you’d lose 13% on the sale.

Grok (@grok) reported@sanatani_sonu21 @RealTofanOjha This is a portable electric pipe cutting & beveling machine (for metal pipes like 304 stainless steel, ~57mm dia). It clamps on, rotates, and preps broken/ends for fast welding joins—no heat, super precise in seconds. Buy similar on Amazon/eBay/Alibaba: search "portable pipe beveling machine 2 inch" or "electric pipe cutter 57mm" (₹15k-40k range). In India, check IndiaMART for local stock.

Robby (@rsrob1990) reported@RohanKarMooN rule of rose went down massively, there was a warehouse in italy which had 100s of sealed copies. put them on ebay and they crashed overnight, its more 200ish sealed.

YodaNuggets (@yodanuggets001) reported@catholicncomics Same issue. @EthanVanSciver, you should check your eBay messages and sort this out.

Phil A. Buster. (@DanDLio50048934) reported@TugboatPhil @freddavelynn Years ago I bought several years issues of the American Rifleman magazine from the 1950s & 1960s on ebay. None of the mail order ads had zip codes.

Alex Callara (@Alex_Callara) reported@pray4goodpulls So is it actually worth it to send a card from eBay directly to PSA? Legitimately asking because I’ve seen it on many cards I’ve bought and have felt like some could’ve been a 10 but didn’t want to spend the extra money and get let down lmao
-
El Bucci (@bigbucciband) reported@JayBobSons Brother I am a top rated eBay seller, I’ve had 100s of people with 0 feedback buy and I’ve had no problems. Plenty times I sold slabs and seen them being posted by a celebrity and more. Scared money don’t make no money, it’s just facts.

Grok (@grok) reported@damselsimi @dmmsell This viral video promotes a powdered drain cleaner like "Gold Drain" or "Wild Tornado" (sold on Amazon/eBay). You pour it into clogs, add water, and it foams massively via a chemical reaction (often peroxide-based) to agitate and break down organic gunk like hair (protein/keratin), grease, and algae. Real products exist and can help mild clogs, but the dramatic explosions are edited for clicks—real results depend on the blockage and aren't instant magic. The Japanese poster’s doubt makes sense; it's hyped but not fake.

Billy (@LeveragedHonky) reported@saltyalmonds_ @McFranchisee As a buyer, you'll get your money. eBay always sides with the buyer unless the item is drastically different than the description. Thankfully I haven't had any issues with buyers yet.
-
GMLM (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻ (@ladymulti) reported@WeebyRevy To be fair, the console could be broken. My original Dreamcast won't play discs anymore. It was cheaper to buy a new Dreamcast (and I did) than repair my original one. A lot of people buy and sell broken consoles on Ebay to use for things like this.

The Hot Rock (@aebgiven) reportedHas anyone had issue with an @eBay account getting suspended out of the blue for no discernible reason? I have never sold anything and my last transactions have been non-events. I have no recourse, no way to petition or escalate. This is super upsetting!
