Why can't Ebay have an auction launch time. Keep the 3,5,7 or 10 day auctions, but have a launch time like Auctionwatch. Then I would not need auctionwatch. I use Adobe to crop photos and Ebay has it set up to take up to 2 pics for free directly from my computer? Don't really need templates. Would like to only have the capability to pick when to start and end my auctions, like at 9PM EST..That way I can list an item at 2am, but launch it the next day at 9PM to hit the whole USA while people are at home after work.

There is a way you can do just that - if you're up and at the computer then.
I use Mister Lister as my bulk lister program. I upload the files to Ebay and they sit in a holding queue for up to 2 weeks. I can upload small batches over the coarse of a week, and then launch each batch at the time I want.
So just as in your example, you could type them up and upload them at 2am, and then you could launch them at 9pm the next night - its not automatic like Auctionwatch, you have to launch the batch at the time you wish, but it does work.

Thanks Someday, I hope they will have a time setting when you do each auction in the future like auctionwatch. Just seems to make sense to me. Maybe they don't want everyone ending auctions in evenings bogging the system down?
