After 3+ weeks of having no computer access because our provider's infrastructure failed.

One week after reconnection and this is the 2nd day that I can not list on ebay .com because their system has failed.

Sometimes it is very hard to say.
Always Happy Stamping!

Well it is not too bad an outcome.
Have 7 listings with no gallery image that I can not "end the listing early" because they are not seen as listings so they can not be ended even though they are listed and we have been charged for them to be listed. Relisting the images does not work as well.
So I think that I will just let the 7 listings with no gallery images take their course.

Can now make new listings. but it is to late to do any today.

More strange things are happening on ebay .com

The symbols for invoices etc is not working which is making it hard to know what is going on.

One poor person is being blocked by ebay so they can not pay for there stamps.

And other parts of functions are failing as well.

So this is what ebay calls maintenance.

There was a study recently among college students -- on a list of "essential" needs, they ranked Internet access as the equivalent of food and shelter.

Hopefully, they'll get smarter before they graduate, but it is pretty amazing how hard it is to go for one day without Internet after you get used to having it.

Yes!

It is the same for me! Without online auctions, I doubt I would have returned to philately.
