Hi There! I have a snipe placed on a auction tonite that ends a 07h02m25s and it's Sunday Is 8 secs enough? From what I've read you have to allow for additional time on Sundays and on the hour and half-hour of when an item ends but the question I have...does this mean exactly,precisely on the hour and half hour or around that general time frame? Thanks for listening......lil' miss speedy mcfee

Sunday nights are eBay's busiest time. On that basis alone, I would use at least a 20-second lead time. Auctions ending on quarter hours are a separate issue; on any day of the week, I would also use a 20-25 lead time.

Auctions ending at 7:02 are not as subject to the backlog, which is directly on the quarter hour. However, since it does still end on a Sunday night, see above.
