Best time for an auction to end at Sedo ?


I have received an offer on a name at Sedo - TheLakeDistrict.tv - which I will send to auction but I am wondering if there is a day that is better for the endings of auctions ? On Ebay I think auctions generally do better if they end on Sunday evening. Does anyone know if this is true for Sedo too ?

Sedo auction's Starting Date determined by when the buyer submitted his last offer.
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/domain-name-discussion/527397-best-time-for-auction-end-sedo.html

EX: If the buyer submitted his offer on 5 PM Saturday then the auction's Starting Date will be 5 PM Saturday even if you started it on Friday (after 6 days)

So you can't pick the time unless you know the buyer and you will ask him to submit his offer in a specific time.

Weekends are the worst time to start an auction over Sedo. I think the best time to start Sedo auction would be Wednesday & Thursday evening. IMO


Good Luck

Thanks EG - I thought the auction would start when I sent it to auction. As it is I will probably counter with a higher price given the high Sedo commission I mentioned on the other thread.

True. Time-wise, they seem to get most bids around 3-5pm ET
