    It can't be down for everyone as I've just had a sale, my first since 11.15 am today. I can't get into my account to check, but it is a UK buyer- so other people can access ebay somehow.

    Still rubbish for me though and my OH has told me to step away from the PC and take a break as apparently I am going to boil over if I keep yelling at ebay and Turbolister

    The mobile app seems to be working fine, as said above laptop is a nightmare.
    That's some serious level of incompetence somewhere for this to keep happening. I can defend managed returns and defects as helping conserve buyers on the site, that's all pointless if they can't actually buy anything. Too messy, too often.

    This is the first time these outages have directly affected me, as I have some auctions finishing in the next half hour.


    One of the items I've listed should attract a premium price - I'll be naffed off if it doesn't get the price I was hoping for due to these eBay problems

    I was just trying to check a listing and end another, couldn't log in on laptop, mobile is working fine. Perhaps I was lucky, although I haven't sold anything on Ebay all day so not that lucky:(

    I can see from my emails that I have listings selling but I know they had bids on yesterday so they are now selling at those prices even though I know I had lots of watchers (possible bidders) but as with everyone else no more bids.

    Found this while wondering about ebay http://downdetector.co.uk/problems/ebay/map/ . It will give you something to look at while you're waiting.

    To add to my joy Turbolister has now stopped working, I knew there was a reason I gave up using that pile of rubbish.

    I've managed to upload the grand total of 3 items- the 4th won't go as it says I need to state my item location. I have my postcode, nothing has changed since I was able to upload the last 3 items- so what the hell is going on.

    Have really really had enough today

    That's interesting, it seems like parts of the UK are still OK

    I'm not sure if that's accurate. I've sold 4 things (at really flat prices) and the two people that have paid immediately are in the 'red zone'
