    what days/times have people most success in getting a greater price for goods,

    ie end of month? more people get paid?
    during the day, people at work will bid
    during the evening when people get home from work ect?

    just i know from experience i get most of my bids in the last 15-20 mins of my auctions

    hi,
    i've found between 6pm and 10pm on a sunday evening/night to be the best time in all. thats from 5 yrs on ebay first just selling junk then as a business.

    cheers,
    jack

    depends on the item too. also what country you are expecting to sell in, be aware of their times. I have missed out bidding on many that were on sat/sun mornings because I didnt wake up in time (I know, I know, use sniping software)

    Depend on what type of item it is as stated earlier. If its a big purchase, id say last sunday of the month at around 8.00pm but if its small like 20> then I dont think it really matters. Either people want it or dont. Simple.

    Hope this helps mate!
