I'm thinking about sticking a Purple Monster frag (mini colony) on e-bay and want to get max exposure, as I'm BROKE.

Here's one I just sold to a C-Z member that is slightly smaller than the one for E-bay.

My question is, what is the best ending time for an auction? A time when most people will be home.
 
I would say a good time to end an auction is around 12:00 am. The reason behind that time is there is a 3 hour time difference. So that would be 9:00 pm on the West Coast.
 
I always found the time around 12am to be the best as well.
 
Sunday night around 11:00 EST. Midnight is a bit too late for people who have to go to work Monday morning, and Sunday evening seems to get the most traffic.

I'm surprised by this. I would think 10pm would be best. All the east coasters are in bed by 12am (as are most central time zoners). 10pm allows you to get the entire US pretty much, as I would think most west coasters are home by 7pm.
 
I'd say 12am too. when i get me tank back up and running i'd love too get a piece from you if you will ship it too me
 
I say 10pm. I don't bid on auctions that I have to stay up for. 10 pm on a Sunday evening would be a good time I think.
