Bitmit - Bitcoin shopping mall - Bitcoin market place - Bitcoin auction house

[molecular]

Well, I skimmed through the thread and had no luck of finding evidence of the site changing hands. There was an incidence Here where he thought he would have to shut it down or sell, but then says he worked everything out and all was OK:

Reread this post:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=41592.msg1443369#msg1443369

In it he says:

It is exactly the old server, I only restored it. I already was the owner before the last Bitmit auction on Bitmit were published so dont worry but then decided to keep it. The time I took over Bitmit was time before..

Which is really confusing English. However I read that last sentence as saying he is not the original owner of Bitmit. Unfortunately, he doesn't say when (or what or how) this happened, only that it happened before the Bitmit auction "was published".

Brian

seems to me he bought it from the original creator (german guy) without the public knowing. Then he wanted to sell it and made the auction and changed his mind again.

Twice.

Twice.

Well, the second time (couple days or so ago) he didn't make an auction and didn't say he'd sell. He just said it was too much for him and he was going to shut it down. He reverted that later.

Or where you talking about a second auction? In that case I missed that.

Oh, good point.  I missed the bit about the auction (is it sad that I have reverted to skimming 15 word sentences?) - just read "sell it" and "changed his mind".

Yeah, I know what you're talking about. Maybe I should go back to bolding most important parts of posts, so people can speed-read more easily. Especially useful for long posts.

I clicked the "Report item" and reported it as a fraud, with a link to the above thread. Will be interesting to see if anything happens, and when.

I don't see the objects anymore.

[penguin_brian]

I don't see the objects anymore.

Certainly is a good sign. Would appear that somebody deleted the item. Whether it was the seller or bitmit is unclear. I don't like to make assumptions without some sort of evidence.

Bitcointalks is also a known irc-channel spammer.

I've been having troubles accessing bitmit, on and off for about two weeks now. My customers have also complained that they have troubles to make orders.

Please be informed that we have an urgent Power Maintenance in our Datacenter Network.

I read all your posts. The next days I will fix the mentioned bugs and make the Bitmit listings more cleaner by canceling the items from sellers who were not on the site for about 4 weeks.

I really hate doing this but it needs to be said:
bitmit.net is hosted by piradius.net, there site is fine. I dont think there is any power maintenance going on atm.

Actually, I can't imagine a load which would bring down wisely choosen hosting so often... I am kind of new here, but as far as I heard, the cheap VPS's are quite popular around here...

Well, bitmit.net is up again and I have my items listed (see sig.) but I would understand that with a site as intransparent and likely lying about several things is not a site I would want to use escrow at. Sadly I had to activate escrow for my items

(The suggested site coinPost.com is even worse. There some dude "bought" one of my coins which effectively unlisted it but he never paid. I thought coinPost would watch the blockchain for payment and only unlist once the payment was done, but they tell you to watch your wallet for payments. What a joke. The "buyer" did not react to PMs.)

We're working on bugs for coinpost. We are doing our best to make it extremely sophisticated, and are really trying to optimize experience. We're running along in beta right now because of issues like these. We are currently making re-listing very easy, and making sure the system won't change the URL on you when you re-list old items. Also adding auction support int eh next few weeks.

Currently we are facing a ddos attack, we are trying our best to solve this issue.

@GBTC, the bug which was responsible for the order problem you mentioned has been fixed. We also fixed several other bugs

edit: site is back. r:)

[Global BTC]

Good to hear you are working on solving the problem.

One thing that's been bothering me for the past few weeks is that when I edit a listing, the setting for "Duration" is reset, and I have to chose "Endless" again, or the listing won't save. Please fix that.

[Global BTC]

Aaand Bitmit is down again...

[Global BTC]

It's always shopping time somewhere in the world. Anyway, it's working again now.

Just le me know. Bug is fixed

Bugfix: No more blank page on checkout when user changes item quantity and presses enter
New: Added item links on the order overview page and notification mail
Minor bug fixes

[Global BTC]

Great fix, thanks!

[leckey]

I think it'd be helpful to know some site usage stats, for sellers anyway. So we can get a guage as to how our item is performing vs others, or whether pretty limited activity is the norm. Average site-wide sales per day/week/month etc.
