Main Audiogon site barely works?

Has anyone else noticed over the past couple of days that the main Audiogon sales site seems to be on life support? It takes at least 20-30 seconds to load, and any changes in listing etc may or may not happen before the website times out. This didn't seem to be the case on Thursday but since yesterday the site has been barely useable. I'm wondering if it's just me or if there's a real server issue?

I don’t think that deep IT database conversion affects the top-layer user experience... we’ve done database conversions in the background plenty of times and left the user experience alone until like 2 AM on a Saturday where you switch things to point at the "new" database. I am not an IT expert but we’re going on day 5 now of these issues. It does not seem to be a routine database update to me. The entire sales side of the website is down completely at the moment.

I sent a message through the "Help" tab on the main site, will wait to see if I get any response. Thanks for corroborating this everyone.

I can't even reach the site now. I've posted $10K in listings on Thursday and no one can even go to the site to shop for them.

I'm not sure what kind of update takes 48+ hours, but nevertheless it's a little stressful that I can't get into the site to remove an item I have for sale, The bright side I guess is that no one else can get into the site and buy it before I can take it down.
