It seems simple when you think about it, but the tip is to schedule the day and time when your auction will close. Now this really does not matter if you plan on listing your item in an eBay store or using the 'buy it now' option.
In case you are wondering who I am my username on eBay is hat3deals.
When you list your item think about when the auction will close. Will it close on a night when most people are watching a really popular show, or is going to close around midnight on the west coast when people are probably asleep?
What you can do is schedule when your auction will start, which of course will impact the end date/time of your auction.
Use the option to 'Schedule start time ($0.10)' and choose a good time and day for your auction to close. This will add 10 cents to the cost of the auction, but it is worth the extra cost.
I prefer to schedule my auctions on the weekends for 7 days, end times around 2-3pm CST. Remember eBay times are based on west coast time PST.
