6:15pm: Site outage

Written by Trade Me staff at 6:17pm, Sun 23 Aug 2009

Trade Me was unexpectedly offline for 20 minutes from 5:40pm to 6:00pm due to a fault with one of our database servers. Any auctions that were due to close during this time were extended by one hour.

We’re extremely sorry for the inconvenience this would have caused and we are currently looking at how we prevent this from reoccurring.
