My Ebay has been down most the day and they continue to show their "Green Status Light" as operational! I busted out Ebay as a user of 3 years! I told everyone they are liars. I can prove it. I have monitored their activity for a long time now. When you cannot bid on auctions after 2 hours then they must move auctions to the next day. They always say it is intermittent and was down for say "35 minutes". They always state this, yet everyone complains they are still down. They post we are sorry for your inconvenience and every thing is operational now. Right..they just got up on My Ebay as I speak. Why do they do this. At 5 million auctons a week, divided by 7 days is around 700,00 auctions a day! Can you imagine if they move them to the next day how much money they would lose? STAGGERING!!! So they lower their ethics and lie! This message I put on Ebay was taken out within 3 minutes by the monitors, because they know I am right, and you too should know how unethical Ebay has gotten! No regards to the sellers who's listing goes to the bidder from yesterday at 10 percent on the dollar since most bidding is in the last hour..!!

HUH?...I was on about 35-40 times today, and didn't have any problem...Think that might be why eBAy said u are full of S?
I assume full responsibility for my actions, except
the ones that are someone else's fault.

Ebay had problems all day yesterday. Seller search was not working, auctions would not pull up, could not leave feedback. It was random and intermittent but I'm sure it did impact on auctions closing yesterday. I know it did on mine. I had almost 50% of my auctions yesterday close without a bid because buyers could't pull up pages, finally gave up and went away. I've NEVER had this many auctions end with no bids since I've been selling on Ebay (October 1999).

I am interested in how you figure out buyers tried to look but could not? Is there a way to do this? Or are you just assuming? Oreo
you've been selling a lot longer than i, but my sell-through yesterday was also really bad.
oreorules,
i tried a number of times throughout the day yesterday to access auctions. of my samplings, 60% of the time i could view them, 40% not. if i were buying, i'd have gotten frustrated not knowing which i could pull up and which i couldn't, and left.

I sometimes have trouble but just switch to another browser and don't have the same trouble. I use Internet Explorer and Netscape. Don't know if this will help anyone or not.
