I’m having a devil of a time getting registered, and as far as I can see, there’s NO way to contact any customer service center at that site. There’s none listed. Or, if there’s something, I have to be signed in first, and that’s the problem I’m having. Does anyone have enough familiarity with ebay to give me some help? arghhh!

Have you gone [here](http://pages.ebay.com/help/reg/RegisterEnterInfo.html)? At the bottom of the page is a link to where you can email eBay your questions.

Also try [here](http://answercenter.ebay.com/forum.jsp?forum=17) and [here](http://forums.ebay.com/dwd?14@1042646889407@.ee7b9d8) for additional information.

Why can’t you register? Maybe they were doing an update or something at the time & that page wasnt available?
