All Hetzner auction servers out of stock?
I wouldn't normally post a new thread for this, but it's Saturday and there's fuck all going on, so why not.
Being Saturday evening, I'm doing what I normally do and ordering a couple of Hetzner auction servers so I can install Debian, check the disks and either cancel immediately in disgust or cancel tomorrow morning after sleeping on it and realising I don't need it.
However, this particular Saturday evening, it appears ALL auctions servers are out of stock. Have Hetzner worked out what I'm doing and ruined my 'fun' or is anyone else experiencing the same issue.

I see 5 pages of servers.
Thanks for the thread.
I see the servers, but if I try to order any, I can't.
But can you actually order one?
I can put it into shopping cart fine, not checking further since I don't need a dedi rn lol
If I click 'order', they're all out of stock.
I can proceed to checkout fine.
Motherfuckers
Yeah, I can order as well.
Double motherfuckers
Try ordering on your phone via LTE
I see what it is though. Have you got UK selected at the top of the page? Change it to another country and see what happens.
Even with VPN off I can't order, fucking weird. There's a nice one on there too.
If you have fastestvpn it has a residential IP server in eu, try that maybe?
Yup, that's the problem, fuckers.
You may be banned for abuse.
Happens to me when country is set to GB.
I guess Hetzner hates british people now :]
Maybe they got a big contract with a french company and are celebrating
Nah, it's not abuse, it's perfectly legitimate and I often do rent the servers. We've figured out what it is now - if you select the GB VAT option, you can't order anything. I blame Brexit.
I assumed pretty much everyone in the world hates the UK, Ukraine aside.
You may be right.
Right, got round that little conundrum, switch to zero VAT, order, login, VAT added, job done.
Stick around to see if the disks are under a decade old!
Now that you've secured yours, what server config/price did you grab?
i7-7700, 64GB RAM, 2x4TB, iNIC, DE - €36.84/month
Quick delivery, 6 minutes! Installimage running.
Where's obligatory yabs?
Why the fuck not, it is Saturday after all!
