Doug - Had question for the thread - your replies appear pretty informed - so here goes. Sorry if this has been addressed already. As a holder of the stock, the amount of down time at the site troubles me. I usually check in, look at the auctions (notice the big ticket items are more common) and check out the feedback - once or twice a day. (It is a significant position for me.)

IR claims this is updates, or regular maintenance - but it never was this difficult to get in. I feel it is a simple matter of overwhelming traffic. The company says not to worry. I wonder how many new customers we are losing at this busy time of year esp. with the strong buzz surrounding e-commerce. Your thoughts? t d
