Technical problems plague eBay again

update Popular auction site eBay is having technical problems again, going down for just over three hours this morning but now fully operating.

eBay said a database server failed "due to a hardware error" at 6:11 a.m. PT, causing what eBay termed a "hard outage" until 9:22 a.m. Bidders could view and search for bid items but couldn't place bids, the company said in a statement.

"We recognize hard outages such as this one can be frustrating to members of our community. This morning we worked diligently to rectify the situation as soon as humanly possible," Michael Wilson, vice president, site operations and product development, said in a statement.
