Your ebay connection maybe fine, mine is not. I heard the Ebay problems concern load balancing on their servers. As such, it is possible that one person, for whatever reason, gets onto a fairly unloaded server and sees good ebay web service. Another person may be predisposed, for whatever reason, to getting routed to the heavily loaded servers. All I am saying is, Ebay has been virtually unusable for me for the past three days. You may not have the problem, but believe me, not everyone is happy... and I think today's stock action is evidence of that. And yes, I am short as I indicated in my post a few days back, when I first indicated I was having trouble. That trouble is a significant reason as to why I went short.
