As a seller, what day(s) of the week are ideal for clothing auctions to end? I'm speculating Fridays and Mondays are the worst, but am curious to hear others' experiences.

I always thought Sunday night is the best time to end an auction - the thought being that on Sunday night at 10:00 or 11:00 p.m. Eastern time, just about everyone is going to be home where they can check out the auction.

That's the day I do it.

Mine usually close around 9 EST.

Perhaps I'll try it a bit later.

Thanks for the responses, late Sunday night seems to be the best timing. I see eBay permits you to specify auction start/end times for a 10 cents more - I will go that route.
