Is eBay DOWN?

Looks like it could be. Is it slowing down and timing out for anyone else?

<< <i>The search function is down.... >>
You are correct, Sir!
"pcgs Morgan" returns 0 results... and takes a while to do it.
<< <i>The search function is down.... >>
Yep, bullion showed 0 results.

Due to errors in some of our backend systems, members may be seeing different errors in Search. This could be that "We were unable to run the search results you entered. Please try again in a few minutes" or a blank page, or simply the browser being unable to display the page.
This is also affecting the ability to access eBay Stores through search directly, and sometimes from the store URL.

I can get to an auction from my watch list, but that's it.
Lotta sellers gonna be upset.

You can't pull items with under 12 hours left though. You can only cancel bids. But what if I cancel all the bids and someone wins it for 99 cents
ahh, i forgot about that.

As a workaround - if you use the Advanced Search option at the top of the page, and type in your search query and click the title and description box and then run the search, the results for the title and description search will be returned. Likewise, if you receive a 0 results page for title search and choose the title and description box and re-run the search, you'll see the appropriate results.

go to the advanced search - run it -
search will work if after your 0 result
you hit the titles and description button and run again
- but then you get all the SPAM listings and extra junk
Click on the favorite seller's ID as though you want to see his or her feedback profile.
Off to the left, if pictures of current listings are NOT viewable, you have no access to listings that way.
If you've won or purchased an item recently the "view seller's other listings" link MAY NOT WORK
but if you've got an item on your watch list or have bid on it, IT WILL work FOR THAT LISTING.
Just remember - for now, that the Favorite sellers search does still work!
Tinker around & you'll find a way. If you have a coin on your watch list or have already placed bids,
you can still access the coins.
Don't despair sellers. Bidders can still get to your listings using the aforementioned.
I just raised bids on coins I am bidding on by using both methods. It takes a little effort but can be done.
Good Luck!
I'm glad I have no activity on eBay at this time.
When clicking on a seller's ID, to view feedback, the Items for Sale link
now shows, "This seller currently has no items for sale".
At this point the ONLY way to access a seller's wares is if
1) you have a certain coins on your watch list or
2) you've previously bid on a coin being offered.
I thought it was my computer too! Was trying to buy some CC Morgan's today and it died!
I finally gave up after 2 or 3 tries. Guess it's Teletrade tomorrow!
No guarantees though but it's working right now - for me!
Forget the saved searches.
Enter what you want in the search bar, check the box that states "Includes titles & descriptions"
whatever - the box under where you write in what you want to search for, then click Advanced Search - AND PRAY!
