eBay Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Commander Lufkin (@JasperLufkin) reportedI just went on eBay and the prices looked crazy high but when I clicked on them they would come down and I realized it was set for a different currency, I looked up and the flag of the star people was my country setting, are they after me bros?

bad robot ventures (@foxenflask) reportedThanks for all the info Liz. $15-20B of the total $80B GMV is absolutely massive. I’m not recommending any major changes or updates that would turn off existing users, but rather slight modernization to boost overall traffic (I mentioned SEO, as a car guy, whenever I search for cars and parts which is quite often lol, I never see eBay links). And also perhaps future new features, like being able to get financing right on the website through an API with a lender partner, etc. That’s funny they tried innovating through acquisition like typical corporate shills and like the rest of their acquisitions, which seems to be the only approach they know for any stagnation or problems. We really need a hardcore operator in there that thinks out of the box and is willing to look at things without spending the most shareholder capital for the least return. eBay needs to stop acting like a venture capital firm, it’s disgusting the amounts they have paid and continue to pay (Depop) for these acquisitions.

Ted Ooyevaar (@iluvpcs) reported@JustBillinVa Used it at local grocery store and on eBay yesterday. Zero issues.

Alex Staniforth (@AlexStanif96089) reported@BigEarsLBC but there is no justification for murder, not matter what they did. unless it was in self defence. in any case what if the court had let him go and the next person who was mowed down bought a stolen bike from ebay?

cats collectibles tcg (@Catscollecttcg) reported@CardGameNomad Idk again talking and watching these people there is two types and neither get affected this way. Either 1) Like you are saying the price drops and they imminently PANIC sell at the next weekends card show and move it all again at a loss but prob not much different than Rudy or 2) have enough money to like a stock say "EH" and throw it in the warehouse for 5+ years and it becomes x3. I see your argue and do agree with you but its like when people say if we didnt buy japanese boxes the price would come down but thats just not true. We are usually the cheapest, if me, sakura, dot, ETC closed shop you would be stuck buying from eBay at higher prices and less transparency.

mark t (@markt83101520) reported@Terrylvmd @johnny_glue @ryancohen Without YQ, the ebay/gme deal would solidify an eternity of sideways and down for shareholders. Why it's being entertained as something bullish on it's own is beyond me.

Serpentinization (@ImIncoginto) reported@eBay I'm 5 star, 100% feedback and I pay for a subscription and have generated 10,000s of thousands of dollars over the last few decades and this is how support does you. Terrible, absolutely TERRIBLE.

DK going to BK (@rkansas) reported@QeWENeQ @PhantomBlack699 I think the local stores will be much better for solving scam issues that eBay has struggled with. Stores work similarly to escrow Potential buyers of specialized transactions worth thousands sometimes are unwilling or cant take the risk. Ex. refurbisher of science equip

Terry Shadley (@TheTerryShadley) reported@MotleySchuh Most people don’t have the time but selling cards on eBay is easy once you have your “system” down. I can post 50 cards in 15 minutes. The true base really can just be tossed or given away, but I’m always surprised at some of the cards I sell.

Fruitless Metropolitan (@RinseHold) reported@portraitinflesh Professional repair of my hedge trimmer was the same cost as buying a new one, and more than a second hand machine on Ebay. I was reluctant to bin it as it was in perfectly good condition, so repaired it myself. Turns out it was worn brushes. These cost pence to replace. How many people simply junk a machine with this minor problem?

Rodds (@R0dds67) reportedTHE CHEAPEST AI SERVER MIGHT ALREADY BE SITTING ON EBAY. One developer picked up a used Mac Pro for $800 and spent a few weeks transforming it into a dedicated local AI workstation. 00:42 — A cinematic close-up of the Mac Pro's iconic front grille, making it the perfect attention-grabbing frame for the post. The entire setup cost around $2,000—a fraction of what a comparable new machine would cost. More memory. More storage. Dedicated graphics. Local models running around the clock without paying for tokens, API calls, or monthly subscriptions. The real story isn't the Mac Pro. It's that older enterprise hardware is becoming one of the most cost-effective ways to build serious AI infrastructure. Instead of renting compute by the hour, more developers are buying retired workstations, upgrading them, and owning the hardware outright. One upfront investment. Complete privacy. No usage limits. No recurring AI bill. The second-hand workstation market may end up being one of the biggest advantages for builders who want powerful local AI without cloud costs.

OmegaDad (@TheRealOmegaDad) reported@AaronSchiro @CardPurchaser Pretty sure this is a big part of the problem methinks. Not sure what they are going to do about it. Not sure I care too much if they keep paying out the claims. Just extra work and will keep the ESE cost going up most likely. Post office just kind of sucks is my feel. Maybe ebay can partner with UPS or something and give that a try?
-
damo is (@boldlygrow) reported@sith_boul @joepoopie12 @SwamiKnows_ I keep thinking the solution in place for this is a market crash before the deal gets locked. We get eBay much cheaper and eBay’s board gets in real legal trouble for failing their fiduciary duty.

Witold Witek (@badperm) reported@eBay hi , recently viewed items on my app are not being added and cannot see any items today that were viewed. Is there a problem ?
-
Alfonso Jimenez (@alfonsojimp) reported@askebay along with the shipping refund issue I was told I can’t ship the item at all since I am not a commercial entity yet ebay allowed me to list it. What do I do now since item will go unfulfilled and ebay wants me to pay back part of the refund yet ebay made the mistake here
