  After 42 Years, Texas Man Discovers His Stolen Car for Sale on eBay Robert Russell, 66, a retired sales manager from Southlake, Texas, never stopped searching for his 1967 Austin-Healey after it disappeared from outside his Philadelphia home in 1970. The car was stolen the morning after he took his future wife on their second date, giving it deep sentimental value that went far beyond its price. “I never gave up looking for it,” Russell said. “The fact that the car still exists is improbable. It could have been junked or wrecked years ago.” Russell originally paid a friend $3,000 for the sports car and spent years casually searching for it online, though he admitted he had little hope of ever finding it again. That changed in 2012 when he spotted a familiar-looking Austin-Healey listed for sale on eBay by a Beverly Hills dealership. Suspicious but hopeful, Russell contacted the seller and confirmed that the vehicle identification number matched his original car. He still had the original title and key, though he no longer possessed a copy of the police report from the theft. With the help of Philadelphia police, Russell discovered the original stolen-car report had never appeared in the FBI’s national crime database due to a clerical error in the VIN. Once the mistake was corrected, the case was reopened, allowing Los Angeles County authorities to impound the vehicle. Russell and his wife, Cynthia, flew to California to reclaim the car. Today, the Austin-Healey is valued at approximately $23,000. “It still runs, but the brakes aren’t great,” Russell said. “We’re going to put it back exactly the way it was.” After 42 years, the long-lost car and the memories attached to it are finally home.

  I am not a big eBay guy sell maybe 4-5 cards a year on there, can someone kind of confirm to me if this is normal, Someone sent me an offer for a card. I accept the offer the person never pays for it. Then continues to buy cards and never pay for the card they bought from me. @eBay Is this normal and I’m just too green to eBay issues ? @CardPurchaser

  @southsouthsac Nice. I assume it happened in California? One of the guys that started GameGo! was GameFan's final Editor In Chief, ECM (Eric C. Mylonas - RIP) - maybe him? Or Thomas Keller. I had the first issue, but, of course... sold it on eBay, haha. Industry was WAY cooler back then!

  @eBayAU @eBay I’ve been a top rated seller for 8+ years doing over $160k a year and paying nearly $50k in fees to eBay. My account has just been dropped to below standard over 3 “item not received” cases that were auto refunded. The problem? The items were delivered days later. Buyers kept the goods and got a full refund. These aren’t legitimate cases. I was overseas and couldn’t dispute at the time, but since then I’ve contacted support multiple times and got nowhere. Just told to wait until the next evaluation on May 20. Now my listings are buried, I can’t promote, and sales have basically stopped. Waiting a month isn’t an option. I’m not asking for the money back. I just need these cases reviewed and my seller level fixed ASAP before this does real damage. Can someone step in and sort this out?

  @spinelessaisha Hell, since you are running am4 parts, you could definitely find used cpus and motherboards for pretty cheap on places like ebay, too, since there are so many of them, and aren't current Especially b450/b550 motherboards, in case it isn't the PSU that is the issue.

  I listed some things to sell on eBay but now my problem is I’m obsessively checking the bids and the marketing stats. I hope this need to check it goes away soon cause every time I go to check it, I’m also checking what I can buy and that defeats the purpose. 🙃

  @eBay has some of the absolute worst customer service an some of the most terrible policies. I have no idea how they’re even still around. I guess no competition but holy someone should start a new bidding site.

  @ThalaDecoded @mercari_rabbit Here's a simple English translation of that wild Mercari (Japanese eBay) drama after the iPhone sold: Buyer: "My parents found out, got mad, and told me to return it." Seller: "Can you accept and rate it please?" Buyer: "No way — then I can't return it. I bought it by mistake." Seller: "That's a lie. I'm scared you'll swap the contents, so no returns." Buyer: "Fine, I won't rate it then. Police..." Seller: "Why are you so desperate to return it? Did you open the box? If it's fine for you, what's the problem?" Buyer: "I haven't opened anything at all." Buyer: "My parents got angry when they saw it and said return it. Sorry for being selfish."

  @BrianAhlin That is such bullshit. Dude has a "partner" for a $14 card hahahahaha. Block that fool. The process to block a buyer is not super easy, but you can google it to see how to do it. Take note of their eBay username. If you are worried about your feedback (100%) then I would refund, block, and move on. And give them a piece of your mind on the way out. If you arent worried about it, then let eBay deal with it. If you have your store listed as no refunds, and have clear descriptions and pictures, you will be fine. Its their own opinion and they cant prove that it didnt happen on their end. I hate buyers like this. Thats why I shut down my eBay store. It got annoying and I had to be a little ***** about it all the time to maintain my 100% Top Rated seller, and couldnt tell these ******** what I really thought.

  American student found an old iPhone 11 in a drawer and connected it to a $499 Mac Mini from eBay. His thesis used to take 17 hours. The monotonous paperwork he hated - another 6 hours on top. He put the phone on a stand, connected it to the Mac and went to class. Claude did everything himself. Opened apps, filled out documents, clicked where needed. Without him. The thesis now takes 2 hours. Paperwork is no longer his problem. $499 once and 21 hours a week came back.
