Slightly OT: Snipe issues on eBay

jp1216 · #1 09-01-2014, 10:36 AM

Saw this on JustSnipe - the one I normally use. It was posted last night.

Starting from 17:00 Pacific Time, eBay servers experience problems with its servers and networks. The response page from eBay stated that it was timing out. The issue seems to be reduced at 18:00.

eBay has not yet announced the issue on the website.

Pleas use caution during this time.

If accurate, that changes things a bit.

I'm sure ebay will credit it s valued sellers for bids not received.... Seriously tho a crappy situation for bobby and whoever said we all should've just let him vent is right.

In my opinion, there is no way eBay will even consider compensating a seller for a bid that didn't get through...not a chance.

I think he was being facetious.

Yeah it was a poor attempt at sarcasm. Ebay won't do a thing.

Yes, now I see the sarcasm :-). I wonder what some of the real large eBay seller who run auctions and had any ending last night noticed? There could be some disappointed consignors, and if they are on big ticket items those prices could effect perceived value of Vcp on if it's a rare card.

Anyone get a snipe to work tonight?

Quite ironically (or not), Ebay has also recently adjusted it's terms of service to clearly state they will never extend auctions if there has been a "service interruption".

Not that they have done that in years anyways........but once upon a time.............
