has eBay been hacked?

Cannot pay and others seem to have the same problem:

A few in the last hour, it is supposed to be a browser issue, just learned on the ps board

OK, is it problem with Firefox, and it is OK to log in with IE and pay, or is it a problem with eBay that only Firefox detected?

I have read that you need to click on pay now under purchase history in my eBay

I just paid on my ipad no probem and chrome seems to be ok, guess we will find out but I just had a large sale and the buyer had to get her friend to purchase on her account, this is before I knew about the firefox problem but it could be more widespread, not sure.

I tried from the item when I bought it, and also couple of times from my purchase history.  I have contacted the sellers and one responded that he is not in hurry.  I might just leave it till the morning.

Can you just go straight to Paypal and pay from there without going through the ebay gateway?

I wonder if it's been fixed yet?? I hope so

[***super_nova***]

Yes, it is fixed now. 

I could just send the money to the seller directly from PP, but I do not think that seller with several thousands of items listed would be over the moon if they started getting few dollars payment that they had to be matching to sales.
