Is gunbroker down for everyone or is it just me... I have tried two different ISPs today and can not get on at all... I am still getting emails from them about closing auctions but the links don't work for me.

Thanks

Although if a guy had bid early on a gun and lots of people intending to jump in, couldn't... that would be worth a thank you note to the site wink

Not necessarily GB's fault or fault of their service provider.

If you can get to google.com but not GB (any previously working site), possibly a DNS issue. Use the IP address of GunBroker, go directly to the website. http://www.gunbroker.com becomes http://67.220.119.47/
Current GB IP is "67.220.119.47". Works because you skip DNS, but you have to know the current IP beforehand. (IP addr for "www.gunbroker.com" is different than "gunbroker.com".)

See also GB Admin Comment.

DNS down sure does mess with final minute bidders.

Only time I have sold on their, it happened to me. Cost me $100. easy. Happens to them frequently, Ebay never seems to go down. Things like thatinflunce you not to list with them. GW

I understand now how the site may not be completely down, but still there are plenty of times lots of guys aren't able to access the site. This can have the same effect - guys who planned to bid can't and the seller loses out. Maybe this is a reason to bid earlier? I know lot of people who never bid until the very end, saying, what's the point? There just might be a point.
