Aussie in Auctiva Land Needs Help with Aust-US times when Auctiva shuts down in OZ

helpwantedplzMember

Hi All
My problem is in Australia, for example just now at 2pm Perth Time Friday 8th May (4pm AEST Aust Eastern Standard Time), Auctiva shuts down and i can't list. This happens on Fridays in Australia, not all Fridays as it worked last week ok and i was wondering if someone could work out for me when this happens in AUSTRALIA time so i don't keep on losing my listings.
Also when Auctiva has this shutdown time, how long is this service unavailable for, because it seems to go on for quite a few hours on our Fridays.
It is now 2.34pm Perth Western Australia AUSTRALIA time here Friday 8th May.
Thankyou Very Much!

G'day,
I'm in Melbourne.

Sorry hun, it's just something you have to work around. Auctiva need to do their Geeky twiddling sometime!!

I avoid listing before 8pm on Friday as it is ALSO the time that Ebay AU do their geeky twiddling (At least the Geeks are sychronises so we don't have to suffer 2 lots of Techie down time). At that time EbayAu closes down and switches to Ebay Central (US) This means your Friday night listings won't show until late late Friday or even early AM Saturday in any case.

Try doing 10 day listings starting on Wednesday or Thursday, that way you get 2 Sundays and your Auctions either end on Sunday or Monday.

I usually work that way. Not at the moment as I'm changing it up a bit.
Hope that helps ...
Marian
