Simple Auctions Hacked Again

i knew a guy once whose roof was damaged by high winds and started leaking. he put a couple blue tarps on his roof over the trouble spots. he left those tarps up for years even though they didn't fix the problem. but they were cheaper than a new roof.

The problem with your analogy is that it's the guy's roof and if he made a poor decision, ultimately he's assuming all the risk.

In this case there's a problem at the top and it is trickling down to affect a bunch of AH, and those who do business with them. And nobody seems to be able to say conclusively what, exactly, that impact and potential risk is.

the problem with my analogy is that it was too hard for you to follow.

Your analogy was to simpleton to be applicable here.

Guess they won’t be back up today.

AH better hope their stuff sells well or they are going to have some annoyed consignors.

Why wasn't this done after the first hack?

12 hours after last update and still down. Slightly frustrating for me but it must be overwhelming frustrating for auctions sites with live or about to go live auctions. Jeff W (National Card Investors)
