I've been doing this for years now, and ebay has never put more time on the clock. I know Qui bids does add time, but I've never known ebay to. Wondering if it's only for some items?

I've never sold on ebay, although I should just to clean out unused items.

I know ebay does have a forum, I'm sure you could get lots of tips there on selling. Both sellers and buyers have discussions, some of their discussions are very entertaining

My dh and I have been using Ebay since it started and we do this too. We've never had ebay put more time on the clock.

Another tip...Don't bid in even dollar amounts. If you want to give 10.00 as your max bid, make it something random, like 10.57. That way you don't put a max bid of 10.00 on it and lose it for 10.05.
