My best sales were on Bank holiday weekends, It's nearly always raining so people are indoors on their computers!!0

Thanks guys,
as its 5p day today on ebay, I'll spend this evening listing a few more items and see how it goes - if I put them on 3 and 5 day sales they'll hit Friday and Sunday evenings and hopefully be successful.
there's bound to be loads more listed this week, but its worth a go.0 -
I used to go for Sundays, but read somewhere that Friday feeling helps to boost prices.
However, with more people selling on Sundays (for example), there is more competition from sellers also, meaning more of the same item... meaning another of the same item will finish just after yours.. meaning people are happy to not bid too high, in the hope that they can get the next one cheap.Be nice0
