Significant eBay outage?

I figured it was just the lousy underprovisioned network that I was on, but it's apparently widespread:

I'm seeing no issues on the desktop version, but I was unable to log in to eBay Mobile for an hour or more, and when I finally got in it was extremely slow. Sellers with auctions ending this afternoon are understandably upset.

Edit: eBay has explained everything:

 

Log in or Sign up to hide this ad.

I'll bet it has something to do with Jennifer Lawrence.

 

Um, I can't get in to my ebay account on my macbook, or my mobile...So I am more bored than usual at work today...dying to check my auctions...so annoying...

 

I've been able to get on it as normal, but purchase history has been completely offline all day as well as the ability to view completed listings.

I just checked it a minute ago. Seems that purchase history is working now, but completed listings are still unable to be viewed.

 

I am also having problems, but the bigger issue than not being able to log in is people can't pull up items I have for sale. I don't do coins on eBay, but I do resell old out of print music cds and stuff like that. I have items for sale, and when I try to pull them up, it doesn't work. That's a problem.

I can live with not being able to log in for a while, as I am sure they will fix it. But people not being able to see (and potentially bid on) my items is a major issue.

 

I have multiple items ending this afternoon.

Not pleased.

At least eBay 'apologizes for the inconvenience'.

 

Everything fine here, although the mobile version seems to have had an update today. Could be a bug or the new layout causing issues

 

Are you all still having issues?? I am able to get on to one of my accounts easy the other not so much!! It is telling me my email is invalid for my one account, that is what i use to log in do you guys know now to find your user name with out having it sent to your email ??? i only remember my email which is what i always used !!

 

Still having issues.

 

Cannot get on myeBay at all still...

 

I had problems earlier

 

I have been trying about every half hour to get logged in. Just now I got on, and I was able to view some of my active items. I still have a day to go on mine; I feel sorry for those with auctions that ended today. I think ebay should give folks the option to extend any auctions that were supposed to end today by one extra day.

 

Can't log in on my tablet.

 

The Great Oz has everything under control!

 

I had no problem logging in, but the seller of an item I won may have been on whichever server got corrupted. The item I won (and all their other listings), as well as the seller ID, "no longer exist." It's been intermittent, and sometimes the ID exists, but then it disappears again. I found out by trying to "Pay Now" for the item.

 

I've never seen ebay so slow, have no idea why.

 

I never had a problem and still don't. PC and tablet work fine. Is this a mobile Iphone issue only?

 

No, it's not mobile only. I was unable to log in or even view my listings for most of the day. It seems to be account based. I can now log in, and view my listings, but my wife can't.

 

I called Ebay customer support earlier when I got kicked out. Before I was able to press 1 for english they had a recording interrupt stating that they knew they had problems with folks being able to log in and that it was due to problems related to some maintenance.

Hope that dude filled out his change contol, and hope it had a very detailed back out plan

I was unable to log in for about 4 hrs.
