OK, got to the bottom of it. Seems to be auth related.
Our Bidslammer authorisation was revoked (perhaps because we changed password?), and after this the API calls were silently failing. I'm not sure what API you guys are using (PlaceOffer?), but I know the Trading API has a return code specifcally for "auth revoked" (931/932, possibly others).
I think it would be helpful to detect this and notify the users (rather than a generic "Invalid item number"), since it's something we can fix ourselves.
Probably not a top priority, but definitely something to implement when Fable comes back online, haha.
Cheers,
