For the seasoned Ebay veterans this will be obvious, but I'm still learning...so I'll start it off.As I learned the hard way this week, especially if you're selling, use something extremely stable (hotmail, yahoo, etc), not your standard work email as your Ebay email address.At work, our mail server was down this week, but more importantly (ok, from our perspective!) it interfered heavily with my eBay auctions as buyers could not contact me for a day and a half.

If your bidders are at work or asleep (or maybe both) then there won't be much competition and there won't be a good price at the end. I try to resolve my items late on Saturday and Sunday nights. Hopefully this is good for both US and UK bidders.
