If you starting listing items on eBay you might start to notice a surprising trend. Some days do better than others! So let's take this and try to use it to our advantage to find the best days to list your items on eBay.

Let's start out with the day that will be of no surprise to anyone.

Sunday. Yes it seems that people are online and in a buying frame of mind on a Sunday, especially in the evenings. So having your listing finish on this day will probably get you more bidders and hopefully a higher price.

In fact the best time to end your auction, no matter day your auction finishes is between 6pm and 9pm, followed closely by 9pm to midnight.

To get the most out of having your listing finish on a Sunday you might want to consider a 10 day listing and starting your listing on a Thursday night (so it ends on the weekend). This way the listing will get two weekends worth of viewings and exposure to more customers.

However some items do tend to do well on other days as well.

Baby items (and clothes especially) seem to do the best if they finish early evening on a weekday. This is probably the time that most new mothers get a chance to put their feet up and do some shopping - and let's face it, new mother's never buy for themselves, always for their new baby!

Although some sellers would argue it's not the time or day that makes the difference but rather how in demand the item is.

The best way that you can decide for yourself what is the best day to finish YOUR auction is to do a test. If you have more than one of each product, have them finish at a different day for one week and see which day was the most profitable for you. Then you could test times to see what is the best timeslot to sell in.

Finding the best day and time to list your items on eBay is simply a matter of testing your product. But until the results are in, maybe you should stick to Sunday evenings.
