I don't know the approximate time eBay went down...has it been the 2 hour limit yet? I simply hope so because I want my auctions extended after all this

It's been down for at least 7 hours. It's like the locks to your store are jammed. Real great way to run a business ebay!

Yeah but it was down and then came back up for a while, so do they start at the 2 hours again? I'm thinking it's been at least 2 hours now because it was dinner time for me when it went down.
As long as my auctions are extended I'll be content. A little irritated, but content.

I am surprised to see them say it is down. This fall if there was anyone anywhere that could get in some convoluted way they would say it was not a hard outage. I am happy to see some honesty there at least.
