    Hey @Barnacules my paypal got hacked through my eBay login. Caught it in time, but learned a new way for people to get hacked through LIPP. (LogInWithPayPal)

  • lachegg Lachegga (@lachegg) reported

    Selling the Lure of Flame Emblem. Where do you guys sell Emblems now since ebay takes them down?

  • gang_doppel Doppel Gäng Gäng (@gang_doppel) reported

    @MTTrading2 @eBay I’ve had several reps tell me the wrong thing, then a manager overrode them and said they all misunderstood. Their primary reps are outsourced, so this happens with complicated issues.

  • sushirabbits ⚡️𝚜𝚞𝚜𝚑𝚒⚡️ (@sushirabbits) reported

    @modbus_master @JilianneParker @Tesla We’re having trouble getting industrial paints, coal tar epoxy, etc. I had to buy the epoxy on eBay from some sketch lord.

  • phrixi0n_ phrixi0n (@phrixi0n_) reported

    This is what happens when you don't let sellers leave negative reviews. Warnings for other sellers left in comments hoping that the others catch on and cancel the bids.. Fix your system @eBay, it's severely broken. This is just one of 3 accounts I reported 2 weeks ago

  • ladyaimless1 Bat Aimless (@ladyaimless1) reported

    @Feline_Shady @MarleyMookins @Bruce_Elvisteen Research research research. ALWAYS spend time hunting down similar things on eBay, Google, etc, esp if it's vintage or older, to get an idea of what it's worth. People like me know the worth of stuff, and prey on people who don't. It's not hard to rip yourself off, unfortunately

  • YesthatsAAA Who, me? (@YesthatsAAA) reported

    @eBay @ebaysneakers I still havent receive a refund yet i have made so many calls regardind this issue and the fact that you refunded the dumbass buyer and let him kept my shoes is disgusting, its $580 ebay $580 ******* dollars

  • LewieKong Lewie Kong (@LewieKong) reported

    @PinkAppleJamArt Yeah I think you can. It says on the listings page, when you sell something, if you accept returns or not. In that instance, if there's an issue you have to sort it out through ebay.

  • rhymeswithcraig rhymeswithcraig.eth (@rhymeswithcraig) reported from Orlando, Florida

    @jordantheangel_ Ebay / Amazon- Batteries are like $40 and are pretty easy to replace! I’m trying to keep mine rolling for that size issue too. 🤙

  • StephenPickle12 Detecting finds Yorkshire. (@StephenPickle12) reported

    @SDetectorist I've had an ORX for over three years with no problems with the clip but it then went faulty quickly followed by the one for my Deus II as well. I've bought one of the aftermarket clips from eBay as a back just in case.

  • QuapawQ Quapaw Qwerty (@QuapawQ) reported

    @spirituallock Have bought from JM Bullion and MoneyMetals, no problem. Also from eBay, but only uncirculated with a COA - Certificate of Authenticity. My last two - Putin, "Winter Is Here," 2017. Hero coins go for more.

  • trusteft Trusteft (@trusteft) reported

    @AskeBay I can't exclude the USA as a destination because it is treated as domestic. I can't change to ebay greece as there is no such website. Since there are not THAT many ebay regional sites, I assume this problem exists for other countries too. I guess same costs for both. Thanks.

  • Ren_Nyaa Ren 🐈‍⬛👾 (Comms/Wait List Open) (@Ren_Nyaa) reported

    So the neck on one of my totally legit Nendoroid I bought off eBay broke, so Imma fix it/swap it out real quick then I'll start the stream!

  • TMorey67 ToberMorey67 (@TMorey67) reported

    @Charlie82075879 @eBay noooo not buying that again goes down too nice ...so gonna stick to my rule of thumb no alcohol in the house only if i go out haha

  • 2pimp2bu GoldenBoy (@2pimp2bu) reported

    @ChesthairCheeto @SneakerPhetish There’s people out there that don’t even know when releases are & only know what is on GOAT/SX/EBAY or their local Reseller shops! There’s no getting through to them unfortunately! I hate it bc I’m just like you…just stop & the price will come down! **** happened w/fitteds too!

  • rowaytoncards Rowayton Cards (@rowaytoncards) reported

    Just sold my first card with @eBay Authentication service, fully expect something to go haywire. Anyone had any issues? @CardPurchaser

  • tobytayles Wynbot (@tobytayles) reported

    @bfam211 @PaulAnthonyWi14 I think you may have to hunt them down on EBay

  • sdrockcab I Just Met You, This is Crazy, Cole Me Maybe (@sdrockcab) reported

    Many why do people on Ebay think they're entitled to a 12 hour reply time on messages from you 🥲 I'm one person and you sent your first mail like 18 hours ago ON A WEEKEND please calm down

  • hengesdad85 Andy H (@hengesdad85) reported

    @Eyles007 @HiveCards I would have been down for a trade but it’s now on eBay with bids already.

  • hoenn4eva milly (@hoenn4eva) reported

    @treetopsyturvy I don’t think so, you can get them on ebay. I’ve not had an issue with mine but riley has and fixed hers. it worked perfectly and now i think the other one has gone 🥴

  • hunknorris Hunk Norris (@hunknorris) reported

    @SallyMayweather Funny that eBay never got in trouble for allowing people to sell drugs and guns when it first launched.

  • ToyboxSoapbox Toybox Soapbox (@ToyboxSoapbox) reported

    @OracularBeard Yeah the single issues pop up on eBay. The collected tpb doesn’t seem to very often if at all.

  • xoxogarnet_ XOXOGARNET (@xoxogarnet_) reported

    @tsuyufather @LolziTheKid 2s glitch. u cant get a holiday color off of ebay

  • RussellRukin R-L-S-Delirious (@RussellRukin) reported

    @m__btc @callebtc Put 'bitcoin miner broken' into Ebay and you can see just what an idiotic statement de Vries made about e-waste. If even broken equipment has significant value who know for certain a magic bin of miners with zero value is a central banker myth. #Bitcoin

  • matchXo matchX (@matchXo) reported

    why no USA e-commerce corporates take Made in China merchandises down off there, such as Amazon, eBay and others.

  • LilyMSarver Lily M Sarver (@LilyMSarver) reported

    @thredUP is HORRIBLE for sellers. It took MONTHS for my items to be listed (Not junk. 100% accepted and most NWT). Payouts are terrible . . . and then you have to accept their promotions. I am doing MUCH better on eBay. It takes some work, but at least I'm not getting ripped off.

  • Cat_Voleur Cat (@Cat_Voleur) reported

    It wasn't at the library, either. I have so many unread books already that I didn't think to hunt it down any further than that. I had tried, I was ready to move onto something else. My dad surprised me with a hardback copy that he tracked down on Ebay. /7

  • RobbyL90 Robert Lafleur (@RobbyL90) reported

    @rowaytoncards @CardPurchaser @eBay No issue. Have had three go through it. Takes about a week longer for buyer to receive.

  • no1stuntmaster Paul stuntmaster (@no1stuntmaster) reported

    Just found in my stash of stuff,the original gta and gta london for ps1 and both sealed , just looked at prices on eBay and I might need to sit down 🙄

  • mototingle 🅼🅾🆃🅾🆃🅸🅽🅶🅻🅴 🏍 (@mototingle) reported

    @seanyseanysaeny @FinsMotorcycles @Kawasaki_News My GPZ 750 anti dives worked I’d buy forks off eBay to scavenge the components Main issue with these Kawasakis is no parts availability I struggled like mad and it got very tiring so that’s why I went 70s Honda I’d prefer a Kawasaki all day long
