Best day/time to list on eBay?

I definitely agree, Sunday nights have been the best for me with auctions.
I haven't really thought much about buy it now's, but it probably is the best time to list those also.
Worst times to end an auction are probably Saturday night, Saturday morning, middle of the night, and around rush hour times, morning or afternoon.
Of course, because of the quarantine, all of this has less importance, and doesn't matter as much.

I've heard Sunday Night as well. Though why not list on Thursday night for a 10 day auction? Wouldn't 2 weekends of viewing get a better response?

So anyone with experience on 7 vs 10 day auction listings?

I've done this as well...if I have a particularly unique item that I think might garner extra attention, I've done 10 day listings starting on Thursday....however, I don't really think it makes a difference. Both 7 and 10 day auctions show a similar pattern...they garner a higher number of views on the first day or two (probably from people with saved searches) then there is a dead period mid-week, and then views and bids spike on the last weekend.

One thing from a buyers mindset is a 10 day auction might be too long a wait. A lot of buyers have money and it is burning a hole in their pocket. I know I have given up on 10 day auctions because something better comes along.

+1. Sunday has been my day for selling when I have done it. As for ending times I like the 8-10pm time frame. And a 7 day listing though I have done some 10 day ones also...

There are studies out there on Google I remember Monday night is good too, Sunday night seems to be clogged up with Greg Morris auctions
