In your experience selling AND buying, what is the best day and time to end an auction?

Wasn't there a thread this morning about what day to sell?

Yeah, this one:

As for buying, I think Thursday-ending auctions are pretty quiet, bid-wise.

You'll have less competition, although anyone can set up a snipe account to do last-minute bids.

For seling I find Sunday Evenings are best and for buying tuesday mornings.

I have also heard that Sunday evening/night is the best time to sell. As far as buying seems like stuff in the middle of the day/morning is better than night.

We run our auctions 7 days, ending on Monday or Tuesday at 11pm pacific (8pm eastern). Sunday is usually a lousy day on bids/buying. Plus it's easier to get things shipped out in a timely manner.

I think you mean the other way around as 11pm Eastern is 8pm Pacific (11pm pacific would be 2am eastern)

You're right... I'm too used to living in Eastern and everywhere else being later. I even keep an alarm on my phone for 9pm to remind me that it's getting late for those that live in the eastern time zone. There's been a time or two I've nearly called my sister or aunt at 1-2am cause of it.
