Hi stowgerstuff, thanks for your post.

Yes, this is an intermittent error from our end, we are aware of it and we are currently trying to resolve it as soon possible. Since the issue is intermittent, you can try again, and it might work.

Thank you,

Marco

There's a thread "Can't check out, anyone else?" about the same issue, in case you're interested to look.

I can't bid, lucky are the ones that already bid, they will get their items for 0.01...

But I feel sorry for the sellers...

This is what I get:
