Terapeak research not working
Anyone else getting "Our server failed to respond to your query. Please try again later"
Was getting this on and off yesterday, but todays seems to happen more often than not every time I try and search for something.

OP2 years agoJust an FYI for everyone following this thread, have tried several searches over the past 20 minutes and everything is working as expected, no dreaded “our server failed to respondâ€. Hopefully it’s sorted going forward 🤞

OP2 years agoAdded my account to the open ticket - was told it could be up to 72 hours before they fix it, but hopefully sooner.

·2 years agoI've had the same message all day. Started early this morning, about 6:00am and it's now 4:00pm and getting the same message:
Our server failed to respond to your query. Please try again later.
Makes it hard to post new listings when I can't properly research past sales for the item.
Is eBay aware of the problem and working on it?

·2 years ago@catshakseller. Did you see my earlier reply? Yes eBay is aware as there's a repair ticket number. CS said to contact them with the number I provided to add your account to the ticket.
I'm just a volunteer but trying to help fellow members.

·2 years agoSame since yesterday and into today. Contacted customer service late last night and asked for it to be resolved. Still nothing.

·2 years agoI did it this morning..hopefully they fix it soon..really holding me back
nyatticfinds
·2 years agoYes, I'm experiencing the same thing.
wampuscat_enterprises
·2 years agoSaw the same issue on & off yesterday 4/20, but it's failing even more today 4/21/24. Hope they are working on it.
dannasglobalfashion
·2 years agoYes, same. No luck on mobile device or desktop. Hopefully they are aware of the issue.
tenacresplus
·2 years agoThank you for listing this! Always glad to know it isn't just me. Started yesterday and now totally not responding. Shows me how much I use it. Also within last hour my description area will go blank if I leave it to add an item specific. Usually still there if I go to drafts. Don't know but figure this new problem might be related. I hate change :).
spacecadet_jake
·2 years agoYup been getting the same error pretty consistently since yesterday. I assumed it'd be resolved pretty quickly but here we are...
$tuff2$ell
·2 years agoYes, same here for several days now. Have you gotten any answers?
ilovethesmellofbiddinginthemorning
OP2 years agoFYI, 13 hours ago. Let’s hope it isn’t another 2-3 days before it’s fixed
fuzzyheadphones
·2 years agoAlso been getting the server error messages for 2-3 days now. It's my lifeline, so it's very frustrating. Repeatedly returning to the page to enter a query, only to find out that it's still down, is time-consuming.
Wish that eBay would post a status acknowledging that they're aware of the issue and when they expect it to be resolved.

OP2 years agoGetting the error in triplicate now... 😂

Well, obviously, you're just too, too, too impatient. 🤣
Geez, eBay... 😑
bjvj333
·2 years agoMe too - a couple days now
bud87
·2 years agoYes, it has been happening to me off an on for the last 2 days. I use it a lot so it is frustrating.
Seems random.
ilovethesmellofbiddinginthemorning
OP2 years agoSurprising to me that with a technical issue that's obviously been ongoing for days, the server error wouldn't accumulate somewhere and alerts would subsequently ring out to the relevant tech staff so they can fix it - once some kind of error threshold is reached within a given period you would think it would be brought to the attention of the techies. Do they work around the clock or only on business days? I assume ebay is big enough to have tech staff available at all hours, especially for often used tools throughout their site.
folioliis_thrift
·2 years agoDown for me currently too, getting the same thing everyone else in here is talking about. Bumping the thread in the hopes eBay will see and possibly look into it, if they aren't already aware!

·2 years agoSame problem here.

·2 years agoSeems to be intermittent. I got the server message on and off during the last hour (it is now 6:00 cst.) I was able to complete a few searches in between.

·2 years agoBoth Better half and I are also having problems. Did get in once, but now back to
Happening on both Chrome and Firefox........
@devon@ebay

@elizabeth@ebay
Could we please get this reported?............thanks
devon@ebay
Hey @dhbookds! This is a known sitewide issue and has been added to our Tech Board. If any seller is experiencing this please reach out to customer support to have your account added to the ticket ALERT15274 as an example for our Tech team to use.
wickedgecko
·2 years agoYes, I'm seeing the same thing. Never had issues with Terapeak until now.
ilovethesmellofbiddinginthemorning
OP2 years agoI remember it happening several years ago where the tool was down for a week, but it's been rock solid since then. Hopefully they sort it out.
ilovethesmellofbiddinginthemorning
OP2 years agoHey thanks for trying it out. Yeah, it's been happening for days on and off but today it's been like this for several hours. I can't see anywhere to report the issue to an eBay tech person so thought I'd post here.
mtgraves7984
·2 years agoI just tried and got the same message. I usually take those at face value and try again later. Hang in there...
