JUST LOOKING AT ANOTHER ITEM THE EBAY. AUST TIME 14h 12m LEFT BUT THE U.S SITE TELLS ME THAT THERE IS 14h 8m and then the sellers other items tells me that there is 2h  LEFT?????????????????? CAN'T BE DAYLIGHT SAVINGS . AND THE IT GETS VERY CONFUSING?????????? WHAT RE WE MENT TO DO .

US Pacific time is 16 (maybe 15 as we have gone back an hour, but then they might have gone forward an hour) hours behind us.

My suggestion would be to log into eBay US if you're looking at a US auction. You get eBay proof of delivery, not just posting, protection. And will generally get to pay the extra GSP shipping rates for the seller's protection.

But I don't do auctions.

can you post the listing title here so we can take a look for ourselves?  I don't see the problem you describe, unless I open an item in a second tab and don't look at it for 4 minutes.  The countdown timer only applies near the end of an auction for me, not 12 hours out!

[k1ooo-slr-sales]

just bid your maximum early and forget about the time remaining being different on each site.

If your maximum is the high bid at the end you will win.

IF YOU LOOK AT ITEM NUMBER 141241581552 .IT IS TALLING ME THAT IT HAS 1 h LEFT NOW CHECK ON EBAY U.S.A . OR OPEN THE ITEM AND THEN CHECK IT OUT

[k1ooo-slr-sales]

it is showing me as being just over 13 hours left.

Added it to my watch list and it is showing the exact same amount of time left as when I open the item on eBay.au or eBay.com

I can't see any difference in the time remaining no matter how I look at the item.

[davewil1964]

Maybe if you shout at it?

[47chevyvan]

NOW CHECK SELLERS OTHER ITEMS AND IT WILL TELL YOU THAT IT HAS 21m LEFT

[k1ooo-slr-sales]

nope, tells me it has 12 hours left

[lyndal1838]

Yes, 11 hours + here....nearly 12 hours, not minutes.
