...so goes eBay. Since Wednesday's crash, my auctions haven't gotten ONE bid. None. Zip. Nada. Anyone else see a correlation?

I agree!!! I have 108 auctions running and only eight have bids. This is way below the norm. Usually 40 - 50 would have bids by now.

ALL my auctions were closing during the outage time but those that got in bid higher than I expected. Guess mine are bucking the trend or have their money stashed in fruit jars under the house.

DEFINITELY!
I have 240 auctions up right now and only 25 have bids. That's only 10%!! The weeks prior to ebay's problems my auctions were great, I was very happy with the results. But since ebay's problems for this past week my auctions are doing AWFUL!
NOT very happy with Fee-bay right now!
The least they could do is offer to refund all our fees without having us beg for it!

Even...some listers items are showing up on the closing pages. Others are not. There seems to be no pattern. But I've gotten nailed two Sundays in a row now with valishing listings during closing times.

I don't know what you folks are selling, but I had 68 auctions end tonight (I know, I'm a masochist for remaining loyal to Sunday a.k.a. brownout-night closings).
Sixty-eight 7-day auctions got a total of 306 bids (not including those retracted as detailed in a previous thread). Fifty-five items sold, or an 80.8% sell rate. All but one or two will sell next week on the second pass.
Not like last year, but definitely respectible. And TONS better than Yahoo, where my sell rate's running at about 10%.
