No complaints except that we probably would have done better had it not been for the re-occurring outages. I'm sure this discouraged some of our potential customers from hanging in there. The Oscars seemed to have no impact that I could discern.

I had my biggest sale last night just 10 minutes before the crash. I found this little trinket at a tag sale last summer and just thought it was cute, I paid 1.00. It went last night for over 120.00. Now I know some of you do that a lot, but for me this was my highest profit on any single item so far so I'm excited. It went up 52.00 in the last 4 minutes. I had another item that had a lot of views and about 10 bids and I'm sure it would have gone higher but the crash went down at 10 minutes to go, and the auction closed during the outage. But I'm still happy.

It was great! I had made a low initial bid a few days earlier, expecting to come back at the end with all the other snipers. Ha!, we couldn't, and I got the fine item for my low bid!

My daughter, first time seller, first time sellers list of 10 items, sold 5 of the 10 last night. One went pretty high too
She was happy, one gal paid her Billpoint right off the bat, and my eager daughter packed it, labeled it, and handed it to ME, since 'Mom, you go to the P.O everyday anyway.......' uh huh but I was happy for her. I had one BIN on mine, and thats it. [email protected]

had 90% sell rate of the items closely last night.. of those 75% of those were relists that I now have to wait and watch to see if Ebay sends me the appropriate credit. I AM watching them now... I will be running my own Fee reports from now on each month to verify the amount Ebay wants from me.. I have skimmed it in the past for anything out of the ordinary, but never really dug into it - with the relisting issues - I've learned my lesson..

Somewhat disappointed. Usually we list 100 plus items ending for Sunday night. Usually 95% go. Somewhat real slow last night for some reason.
