<p>[QUOTE="RaceBannon, post: 1166208, member: 25357"]eBay's new policy reflects this. As a seller, you are supposed to leave feedback once payment has been received.

This will expose your listing to the maximum number of bidders. Most of eBay's business is conducted in the US. Most Americans are home on Sunday afternoons/evenings a large portion of them are surfing the internet. This is when a large portion of on line shopping occurs.

This is where the psychology of bidding comes into play, if someone has bid on your item early on in the listing, they have a greater tendency to have some sense of 'ownership' over the item, and thus are more willing to increase their bid in the waning minutes of an auction, which is when most of the bidding occurs.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
