eBay sales

[RalphKaz]

I've accumulated several items from all the great deals I've found on these forums and I need to get rid of some of them.

I was wondering - from your experience, when is the best time (day, time) to have your auctions end? I'm sure that eBay traffic peaks at certain points in the week.

TIA!

In the evening - around 6pm

sunday 6-8 , but its a tossup whether you choose east coast or west coast time I guess.

10 PM EST/7 PM PST Tuesday thru Thursday. You catch all four time zones during "Prime Time" in the continental USA.

Make sure that your auction does not end on a Friday or Saturday. Once you list your auction, it will not show up on eBay listings for about 3 hours so keep that in mind when deciding how late in the evening to list your auction. I list mine at 630pm -7pm CDT...

right on. This is the best time for most general items. But it still depends what your selling, for example I sell some NASCAR items so what I do is try to end them near the end of the race thinking some people are online while they are watching the race.
good luck

I don't know...Common sense would dictate that early evening is the best time to have them end but I've actually had some of my best prices end at 7am...
