Daylight saving

pats_treasures — Sun, 25 Sep 2016 22:55:56 GMT

I am not able to change the time for items that are relisted to allow for the Daylight Saving time change. Some items are for relist 30 days, others "till sold",I assume they will come up with the new time whenever they are relisted. Is it possible to change the time and if so how do I do that.Any suggestions would be appreciated

Thank you for your interest and help. Patricia..

If they are normally set to end/auto relist at 7.30pm before DST, after DST starts, they will end/auto relist at 8.30pm. I don't think there is any way to change them without ending and relisting. I don't think it's such a big issue with buy it now items because buyers aren't counting down until the end, they just buy it when they want it.

It will be more of an issue with auctions. I listed a few auctions last night at 10.30pm, so if they don't sell this week, they will have an 11.30pm finish. Once they have gone through the relists, I'll relist them at a more appropriate time.

Hi Stawks, thank you for the warning.eBay have already removed my listing. I checked similar listings and it seems you can say Gollies but not the full word.There are also some Enid Blyton books listed with the word on the covers and that is ok.Some years ago Enid Blyton books were removed from libraries because they showed Noddy and Big Ears in the same bed. PC in some areas is just ridiculous. Just in my opinion!

Apparently you're allowed to use the word if it's in the title of a book or art

or stuff like that.

But the word itself is not allowed for toys nor is the shortened word golly

Oh....was that your place? Oooops.....sorry.

Initially I thought it was the sun shining out of your you know what, then I realised it was contained in a paper bag, so I swooped in like a bat and nicked it 😄
