Takealot Gateway Timeout

[boyequal]

From some time last week, I am unable to access Takealot.com. It loads fine on other ISPs. All items retrieved from static.takealot.com return 504.

Pings to both www.takealot.com and static.takealot.com are fine though. On the Takealot Facebook page, another user complained about the same. Anyone else have this problem?

Takealot has been working fine for me in Cape Town. What items are retrieved from static.takealot.com?

Weird... yeah, this is in Johannesburg.

Mostly javascripts, stylesheets and images. So, it does eventually load the html itself, but without any styling or images :-/

Same issue here.
