Angry HELP! Is eBay working or not!!!

Please, somebody help!!! I've been trying to get on ebay (www.ebay.com) for 4 DAYS now and keep getting the "gateway time out" error that reads exactly:

"504 Gateway Time-Out

Description : Unable to connect to origin web server. The web site you are attempting to access is currently unreachable. This may be due to a network outage, or the web site might be experiencing technical difficulties"

EVERY OTHER web site WORKS!!! Outlook Express works fine, too. So I DON'T think it's my ISP, which by the way is BYU IT services; LAN/ethernet connection that uses an automatic configuration script (not a proxy server). Sometimes I'll get the home page of ebay but can't get much past 3 clicks into categories. One I was able to get on the Annoucement pages and they didn't report any problems. So I don't know what's up. I even tried using the computers ON CAMPUS and ebay won't work either (the computers on campus use the same BYU network/automatic configuration script).

Could somebody PLEASE go and see if they're able to get onto ebay (not just the homepage, try looking at some stuff on auction or do an item search) and tell me if it's working properly. Also, if you know what the problem might be, please let me know.
