A server at our colocation is down and they are currently working to resolve this. Our Auctionsniper IT staff are also looking into the problem, but at this time there is nothing they can do until the hosting company gets its server back online.

Will post back as we know more.

AS site is back up. Our bidders are running as well. I'm currently looking into the impact this downtime has caused. Other than us detecting things are back online, our hosting company has not called us back yet to let us know why this happened.

Our backup bidders were able to continue sniping during the downtime of 6am - 8:30am. However, they do rely on periodically checking with the primary site location and this caused there to be a higher than normal amount of failed snipes.

Our end of auction service that sends out emails letting you know if you won/lost the item you were sniping is still behind as well, so your emails for this may be delayed. We hope to have this service catch up within the next couple of hours.

We appologize about the downtime and will continue to work on making sure we have a reliable backup system in place for such occurances and of course will strive to make sure that downtime does not happen in the first place.

If you have additional questions, please feel free to contact our support team.
