Kebco, looks like your auctions are tracking true now. All due apologies to klancy for post number 12. I was in his account when I posted and used his nickname! |

| (no avatar) | So,as a bidder who actually saw his auction close yesterday with himself as the high bidder (and the history shows that) and then seeing the auction reopen, will the high bidder at the auctual close win, or is there an opportunity now to get outbid. My current Max Bid shows on my personal status page, but doesn't seem to be effective. What do you recommend? Just wait? |

Sorry for the calls and emails. I had a case of "tunnel vision" and didn't think to look here until just now. Keep up the good work and the best site!!! Tomon |

| (no avatar) | Supergimp:Just an observation but I tried to look at my own auctions that were ending last night.Two hours before the auction was to end I couldn't even access AA.If I couldn't then neither could any potential bidders. |

supergimp yes, due to the outage we extended all auctions that were scheduled to close during the outage until 8PM PDST tonight. It is possible to be out bid on any current auction. The High bidder at the close will win the auction. |

So far as we know, this sequence of server failures was unrelated to any of the current "Worm" problems currerntly being reported. Appears to have started with a hardware failure problem which consequently caused corruption in systems software packages. |

Things seem to be MUCH better now except.........some of the high bids are not showing up on the pages, but they are shown on the bid history. I am sure this, too, shall pass. |

| (no avatar) | "supergimp yes, due to the outage we extended all auctions that were scheduled to close during the outage until 8PM PDST tonight. It is possible to be out bid on any current auction. The High bidder at the close will win the auction." I guess this isn't eBay. Do I need to redo anything to requeue my bid? My max bid still isn't registering. Seems a bit unfair for auctions that actually reached their close (as evidenced by the bid history vs. original auction close time). Also, a bidder's high bids are now exposed (those that executed in the last seconds especially). |
