What's general consensus of items ending Easter Sunday....

....... are they likely to sell quite well, or not at all - because it is Easter Sunday?

I've just realised I've put a couple of items on that finish Easter Sunday, wondering if I have made a mistake!!

Thanks.

I think it will depend a lot on the weather.

Get rain dancing!

Sunday's a good day for last minute bidding - especially around 8pm. Bank Holidays seem to be very busy around evening time, too. I could be wrong but I think you should do alright.

I think the timing of the end of the auction is critical, rather than the day of the week, myself,
Ending before noon = bad
Ending after 7pm = good.

Anyone done some proper research into this? I'm just going off my own perceptions and experience.

perhaps i'll do half a rain dance then!

Well, looks like I will have to wait and see, and let you know! I have also got one scheduled to start, but I don't think I can cancel a scheduled item, can't see an option to do this, unless anybody else knows a way?

i think it depends on what you are selling really, i sell star wars figures and they dont really make as much as it would on a week day because everyone else sells theres on a sunday night and the buyers only bid so much because they know another will be ending within the next hour or less

I've definitley found that items ending on Sunday evening sell better (for more and have more watchers) than items on other days. Friday afternoon when everyone has had enough of work and is watching ebay has also worked well for me.

It is a 'fact' that internet traffic is at its peak at 8pm, so I try to get my listing finishing around that time. Perhaps on Easter Sun it might be later as noone is going to work the next day??
