Yeah I'm joking around a little, I've heard of the auction site, never signed up or spent more than 5 minutes there.

Me neither. I hear it's the cigar smoker's equivalent of crack. Try it once, and you're hooked.

Considering I am currently seasoning a 100 ct Humidor I got on there for 15 bucks... yeah, it is kind of like crack.

No one does system maintenance in the middle of a business day, they crashed.

I just got off the phone with Gonz, their IT director, and he said it was some nincompoop in the bay area named Mogg who tried to force an exploit to buy up all the Cremosa Cubas at sub-listed pricing but instead just crashed the database.
