eBay Australia has named this Sunday, December 7, as the busiest online shopping day in Australian history, predicting more than half a million items will be purchased on its site in just 24 hours, or six gifts every second.
..
The company predicts a “record-breaking” 2.6 million people will visit eBay Australia on Sunday, and will purchase 510,000 items — 23 per cent more than last year’s tally.

I wish.....
So that will be 509,999 people who don't read the description or expect to get something for free.
And 509,998 people who give defects willy nilly.

Well "I'm waiting with baited breath" ....NOT.
Let's see if the system can handle it.

And if it be true and those figures are anywhere near the mark, am assuming the big guys will get most of the traffic, (the rest of us will have our lights turned off) and the antiquated system will no doubt crash !!
Happy days, hopefully we'll all get a bit of a spin off !! (We can hope)

Wanna see my impression of Liam Neeson?
^Every single DSR defect I have is from a buyer that never contacted me about any problems and left otherwise perfect FB etc, and it bugs me they appear on the dashboard but aren't included in the proper report until a week or so later... Bugger Christmas LOL I'm just sitting here now counting down the days (4) when the 27 defects from a single buyer are no longer in my evaluation.
As to whether I'm ready.... No, I am not.
