Store fixed price auctions that I shut down this morning and moved to fixed priced auctions are still not showing up. My closed auctions are still stuck in my ebay store and the new ones are not there yet. I know it takes times but it's been over 5 hours now. They do show up in my My eBay under fixed price listings so I do know that they are there but my bidders can't access them. Anyone else having this problem?

I can't believe this 10 cent FP listing day is due entirely to Ebay's generosity and appreciation for their sellers. I have a feeling that since dumping the store listings into the same pot as the auctions, their ulterior motive is to use this promo to test their servers' ability to handle the load under extreme stress. Which is actually a good thing when you think about it. If the system is going to crash, let it happen now when everyone is alert to the danger and ready to respond with the backup system. Much better than a Sunday evening surprise crash when most of the techs are home in bed.

The following items were sent to fixed price at around 6:00 central time and the emails they sent to me stating that images were not showing up cam at around 10:00 to 11:00 CST so I assume that is about when they were processed and started showing up. I then sent the following emails which I finally had to send using the standard form on the website:

Subject: Problem with getting gallery image for your eBay item
I sent the following messages to you to at [email protected] and they came back as undelivered saying that the address is no longer in service. Why do you even use the address if it is no longer in service. You need to get your act together before Wall street finds out and our stock takes a big dump.
Your link is not working. I can not get to the link to set the gallery for
this and many other store items that I sent into fixed price because of the
offer today. When you send the email to me saying that you can not get the
gallery image (which should be automatic) and I click on the link it comes
up as web site not found. Again the "engineers" have screwed up the program
and made life miserable.
Again it is happening where the web site can not be found. The idiots that
you have hired for your "engineers" (IT dorks) have screwed up again.

I had 2 items sell almost immediately so guess they showed up in search. All my many many uploads for fixed price went right through and listed only 2 glitches said my category was invalid did a relaunch it went right through no changes. I listed 52 things and several with multiple available items. Now hope most will sell. I kinda like the fixed price seems like sells are much better but I better knock on wood. Certainly don't want to jinx it all.
Going to go check searches and see.
