There is little time left.

eBay is probably the best known and largest internet auction house in the world. You can bid or buy almost anything your heart desires here. In the same way, you can sell everything you no longer need or you can even build a business as a professional seller.

This is how eBay works and the remaining time when selling

  • If you want to sell or auction something, list it on eBay. You provide a detailed description with a photo and determine other things such as the star price, the "buy now" price and the shipping costs.
  • You also determine when buyers can bid or buy immediately and how long your item should be offered on eBay. The offer can be online for up to 10 days.
  • If the offer is available, you can see not only the price offered, but also the remaining time and the exact time of the end of the auction.
  • The remaining time is initially only displayed for the time of the last update. From one hour before the end of the auction, the time runs visibly in real time on your screen towards the end. You no longer need to keep updating.

When the remaining time is not running

  1. First of all, you should know when exactly the remaining time is really up. It only expires at auctions. If the item is also available with the option to buy it now or if it is only "Buy it now", the remaining time does not run.
  2. You are probably wondering why your time is not running backwards even if there is less than an hour before the end of the auction. This is correct if it is an item that you have posted yourself and you have contacted your eBayAccount are logged in.
  3. In order to see the current time, you have to log out and watch the offer as a bystander.
  4. If this still doesn't work, try a different browser or a different PC. But remember, you must not be logged in to your own offers.
  5. If it doesn't work with other browsers and your own, there is an internal problem and the easiest and fastest way is to uninstall and completely reinstall this browser.
