Crew Group Inc. sent out a mass e-mail to loyal shoppers on its mailing list, advertising additional 30% discounts available only at its Web store. But for a substantial portion of Cyber Monday, one of the most important online shopping days of the year, the New York-based retailer’s Web site was not working. A message said the site was “temporarily unavailable.”The site for upscale department store Bloomingdale’s, which is owned by Macy’s Inc., was also down on Monday morning and afternoon.
