I usually like a start around 8-9 PM usually T,TH, Sun with a minimum usually 9.95 stimulate bidding. What gets you best results!

I have usually emulated end times in sync w Teletrade when they operating.

    I don't do auctions on eBay anymore (I do BIN's) but I would always check to make sure to check a few things when I did them:

    1. the ending day of auction doesn't fall on a holiday
    2. its not ending during a work day
    3. its not ending early in the AM (also take into account time zones) when many people will be sleeping

    A lot of auctions end on Sunday evening, so that is normally a popular time. I think Thursday and Saturday nights work well too since most people would be available (if they want to be) and there are fewer auctions you are competing against to get attention/$$$.

    Sunday night used to be the best but the last couple of years I have done better with auctions ending on Saturday nights around 9 PM.
    Monday evenings ending at 8 PM central do OK for me too.
    But on eBay for last 10 yrs. mostly hit and miss.
    Mostly miss. :'(

    weekend endings do best.

    I've seen 10AM PST do as well as 6PM PST on the weekends.
