eBay Down Again - entire site

[janmax22]

Was revising a listing to add photos and the entire eBay web site goes down and changes to the listing were lost. See attached photo showing the eBay main web page - it's down - again. June 17 5pm CDT.  See photo below.  And no it is not my ISP as all other web sites are up and functioning fine such as Amazon, Facebook, Google, BBC, Yahoo, etc.

Why does this keep happening?

Some users -- but by no means all -- seem to be having the same "Where's all the stuff" problem when listing, but the site does not actually go down despite the message you are seeing or problems you are having after seeing those errors.

If you are using a VPN, try disabling it before beginning to list. That has worked for some users, apparently.

More suggestions of possible things to try here:

It appears Ebay has changed security for some reason. Do you use a VPN? Here is what i do to get to work....but Ebay needs to get this fixed!!!

1) turn off VPN

2) clear browsing history for last 24 hours.

3) log back on to ebay and list.

from what I can tell this works for all browsers. This tells me that Ebay is doing a deep packet scan and flagging VPN IP's....many banking sites are doing this too. Ebay just needs to fix it or inform users they can no longer use a VPN on their site.
