so now I list at least twelve hours before I really want my auction to start. So if you want your lsiting to REALLY run at 8 pm on sunday, list at 8 am on Sunday, and it will mke it in by dinner time if you are lucky!
Only problem with this is that your auction then finishes at 8am!
The time at which the listing hits the site bears no relevance to the time it will finish.
