Hi Guys, please note attached copy of my scheduling boxes. They are all out of whack and I can't do any future scheduling. Please check it out and fix. Thanks, Steve
OR Pacific Time
Well the copy didn't all come out, but take my word for it that they are not showing properly and I cannot do any future scheduling.

whats missing are the little arrows in the date and time boxes which allow change of time and date. I can't seem to copy just those boxes. It only takes the whole line and that is why it is not showing up when I try to attach to you. Steve

Hello,
There are 2 ways to enter the scheduled date and time:
- use the 2 text boxes where data can be typed in directly
- or click the adjacent icon which pops up the calendar.
The new scheduling format allows several new features:
1. Extends the launch interval beyond 21 days
2. Allows scheduling every minute (instead of every 15 minutes)
3. Adds an "interval between listings" option to bulk scheduling
4. Saves the last scheduled date, and use it to pre-fill the scheduled date/time controls.
A variety of formats are allowed for type in. For date:
Apr 1, 2005
Apr 01, 2005
April 01, 2005
Apr 1, 05
04/01/2005
04/01/05
4/1/05
For time:
5:01 AM
05:01 pm
12:52 am
12:01 PM
1 am
0101 am
12 pm
1645
0900

Got it! thanks much. Works great. I especially like the fact that the date stays the same until I change it. Negates my having to change the date on every auction. Just keep listing and hit schedule. Love it. Steve

I just hit schedule, not knowing and thinking this is how I could set the day and time to lauch-- and it started processing the auction.
Can this be corrected? It is logical that one would hit "schedule" to schedule the auction in the fture, not to process now!

Hi there,
Sorry for the confusion. The scheduled time is listed directly to the right of the schedule button. Whenever you press "schedule" it is going to be launched at the designated time to the right. Please make sure you change the time before you press schedule.
I will pass on your comments about having a scheduling confirmation page. However, I believe we are trying to limit the number of pages or clicks it takes to launch an auction. Each page takes time to load.
Finally, If you cancel this auctions at Ebay within 12 hours, you can request for a refund for that listing.
Please let me know if you have any other questions.
