Yeah - Service Unavailable for just about everything it seems. Been that way for a few hours now at least. Their sales figures for today are going to be pathetic.

Yes, on searches I'm getting :

Service Unavailable
The server is temporarily unable to service your request. Please try again later.

They were down most of the afternoon yesterday. They've been having server difficulties ever since

Try doing a search.

Some work, some don't. Seems to be working about half the time. Good thing I'm not trying to actually buy something right now!

Well Farm, now it isn't even working half the time. Guess since I was the last one to get it to work, I must have broke it.

I can get to the main page reliably, just can't seem to get to any product descriptions.

Looks like they are losing a grip on their web hosting capabilities, like they did with their CS.

If people keep posting "Is Newegg down?" threads here, I fear AT's servers will suffer the same fate.

"This is the place to discuss the latest computer hardware issues and technology."

We are discussing Newegg's server. THAT, my friend, is a "hardware issue".

I was about to post the same off topic thread myself. I was having problems getting some parts of Newegg's site yesterday, but today I can't even bring up the home page. The networking people on my end occasionally try "interesting experiments" that last a few days or longer, so I can never tell who's to blame. On the other hand, it was happening at my house, too, and I can only yell at myself there.

OK. Even more weirdness. When I try to bring up Newegg.com, my (Firefox) status bar says waiting on www.zipzoomfly.com. I thought maybe my bookmarks were hosed, so I typed www.newegg.com into the address bar and got the same thing. Don't see that in Internet Explorer though. (Still don't get the page, either.)

Geez, their site still isn't working? What the heck's going on? Everything's timing out.
