Have been getting this message all day: "Sorry, the maximum number of purchases on Coinbase has been reached at the moment. This is a 24 hour rolling limit with no specific start time. Please try again later. We'll continue raising this limit over time."
Finally, my 1 BTC test purchase at Coinbase just went through at 1:30 CDT.
If you've been trying to purchase bitcoins with Coinbase, there will probably be a short window of availability there.

i'm trying for over 2 days to buy btc using coinbase and can't figure it out when the window will appear. Also it might be from btc going up and that's why there is such a huge demand to purchase and not to sell btc. last month wasn't a problem buying btc all day long, now you have to try several hours to grab some btc from them

I just bought some an hour ago. Crossing my fingers the market doesn't crash before it arrives.

Bought last week at 45, now my Coinbase transaction won't leave the Pending status that it should have left yesterday. I am not happy.

Yes, me. I sent out btc shortly before the outage of yesterday and that's still pending.

In the same boat now, bought at 47 over the weekend.

I bought 10 that were supposed to clear yesterday and still haven't, and since they were my first purchase at coinbase, i can't buy more until the transaction completes. Getting pretty irritated at missing buying opportunities.

I made my first purchase a while ago and that's in a wallet. They sent me a file, hell I don't know what it does but I double encrypted it and stored it someplace. I guess they are holding it secure with their red team / blue team security. The second purchase is not confirmed but confirmed is the ACH withdrawal so I've got records. I'm fine with waiting.
What I don't understand about coinbase is how to transfer or spend my coins. I am a total and absolute bitnewb but I am certainly willing to toss a few dollars in to supporting this startup. It is a risk I'll take to help to 1. help remove fraud from financial transactions, 2. reduce costs to consumers, 3. free government from the grips of the financial industries.

My transaction is still pending.... It was suppose to clear Thursday evening, it is now Saturday morning. Long delay since it was my first transaction with coinbase.
Made this transaction about the same time as a bitinstant transfer. With all the problems BitInstant is having they were still fast than coinbase at this point.
Good luck everyone!

assuming this is an honest technical issue and coinbase hasn't officially gone tits up... have they destroyed faith to the point they can still operate or is this a death nail?
