80% of bids are within the last 30seconds.
best time is around 7-8pm on a sunday. If not 8pm weekdays.
everyone is relaxed by then, eaten and shouldn't be doing much.
Don't do it for a Friday or sat night. People are generally out doing things

I would wait till after Christmas. Or do a 7day listing..
Not many people will buy in the next few days.
Yup, think thats best actually thanks.
on a related ebay matter (didn't want to start a new thread), just sold a phone on ebay and they want it before xmas (last minute much 
). Anyway, the post office up the road is open till 5:30 on a saturday but the question is will they still pick up Special Delivery items today?

Personally i think that between 6 and 11 pm would be the best time to end, closer to 11 the better due to the fatc that most people will be home from work by then and will most likely stay up to see the end..
As said above, the bids will fly in within the last few hours..
Also, i would deff wait until the new year, when all the kids/teenagers/adults have money from xmas and tend to use ebay as a cheep alternative to the shops, obviously dependant upon what you are due to be selling..
Good luck dude.

I always try to end my auctions on a Monday night between 1900-2100.
Sunday was always the best day with items ending say between 7-9ish.
But over the years, ebay has became bigger and more popular, and it also depends on what you are selling.
And as some have said any day between say 7-10 is good apart from friday and saturday (exception been buy it now items which you can list at anytime).
Think about items you are selling aswell, if you sell world wide, is the item more popular in another country than what it is in the UK - if try to list so it ends at the said times in thair times zone. etc
Its not just about the time you list items, its also you Title, a good honest description and photos that sell your item.
Title is one of the most important things, because alos of people search for items, ie if your selling a mobile phone, you could have the best description in the world etc but as ive seen a lot of time a usless title like "mobile phone"
