For the record, we Mainers are officially against this trend of eBay being down Sunday nights. Can't list, can't bid, can't browse. At least I don't have any auctions ending tonight as I usually do on Sunday!

Down in Houston. This is a weekly occurence. I have changed my listing times to MUCH earlier in the day and have gone to some overlapping 10-day auctions. However, without a doubt, Sunday night ending is the best as far as I am concerned - provided eBay can stay up. Suggest we all take up a collection and send them a lifetime supply of auction Viagra. Come to think of it, isn't that what our fees are all about??

Anyone know when this started. Just so we have a good idea as to how long they were down when they finally get it fixed. Any bets as to whether or not the extend auctions! (HA HA HA)

No wonder Meg sold $32 million of ebay stock, apparently just can't figure out how to keep ebay up and running so figured out better to bail while the bailing is good! How long ago was it when her Megness was saying things like "site stability is my number 1 priority for ebay" Apparently this has changed to "Getting my money out of ebay before it all goes away is my number 1 priority!"

First reported on AW at 1:22PM PST
Owned up to on Ebay Announce 6:42PM PST

It only took them 5 + Hours to admit to a problem


I think that's better than average.

We are sorry, but our site is temporarily unavailable. We are working to bring the system back up as quickly as possible.

Hi everyone, Ebay is down for me in Illinois 9:16pm. It is fried, can't even get a "Temporarily Unavailable" message.

Anyway, I've lost $125.+ today because of this outage, I would like to file for FVF back from Ebay, how do I go about this? I know there is a good letter floating around somewhere.

Thanks for any help!
