    Greetings - Is anyone else having difficulty getting the "create a listing" function on eBay? How about not being able to log in at Heritage Auctions? This has been going on for a couple of days now. Any suggestions? - Thanks and ... Stay well - Fred

    Interesting. I just tried it again and ....nothing. When I click on "create a Listing" it just doesn't connect. All I get is the spinning circle then "timed out". I called eBay and after a while - clearing my cookies, etc - I was told that they are having some issues and to check back in 24 hours....DRAT! Thanks for the response.

    I just signed in to Heritage with no problem at all.

    I guess the thing folks have to remember is that for 6 months or longer now the internet has been going through things it's never gone through before because of all the HUGE increases in usage. There are literally hundreds of millions more users online at the same time now than there has ever been before. This causes blockages, breakdowns, slowdowns, etc sometimes for specific sites, various providers, sometimes for servers along the way. Sometimes in this area and not in other areas.

    It's kinda like what happens to the US Mint the first day a really popular coin is released for sale - everything gets overloaded and nobody can buy it. Well, the US Mint isn't the only entity that happens to.
