Would you rather a surfer see ( error #1727 blah blah ) or would you rather them see ( sorry there was asmall problem with the site , please BOOKMARK this link and try again in a few minutes , we apologize for the inconvenience .

Not only do you get a chance to make a sale , you let the surfer know the site isn't broken.. when i see errors like that on sites i dont trust them because i figure if i buy something i might just get the same error and be out the cash.
