Re: Listing duration
With the way eBay is slowly transitioning more and more to an Amazon like marketplace, I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if eBay starts curtailing, or even considers eliminating the auction format completely. I read a lot of stuff to this affect on other ecommerce forums, and see more discussion about this. There is no real money for eBay in auctions, they have long emphasised a buy-it-now format.
Also, just as Phaz above states, they recently changed all BIN listings to good til cancelled. That, along with other changes like the move to Managed Payments, and their Product Catalog should be a big clue where things are headed.
