I would think it dependes on the product you are selling .... I dont think it has effected my sales either way overall... or if it has it would be a small variation
its a funny thing too , all the advice I got when I started sellling was to have auctions finishing preferably on the weekend and best of all about 9pm eastern time on a Sunday .... experience has proven this to be a myth ... I have had much better results for auctions finishing on a Weds or a thurs and also do far, far more Bin sales on those days too ... I think is because it pay day and it stands to reason that more people have more expendable money on those days .... very few people get paid on a Sunday , by then a lot of battlers are wondering how they are going to make it through to next pay day
