At least 30 mins a day I think.  I do quick checks of various eBays about twice a day on average.  I always try to snipe manually, too, which also takes at least a couple minutes each time, although I usually try and combine it with something else so that I don't stare at the same auction for two mins Wink

10-15 minutes seems about right. Some times a little more.

When I have money to waste, I usually spend 15-40 minutes a day on ebay. When I buy something expensive, like my DS Lite today, I don't go on eBay at all.

I spend most of my time on eBay just after my payday every two weeks.

pretty much the same for me as well, spend it when i got it, except when there's a new piece of hardware or a 360 game

I don't go to Ebay too much anymore, but when I did I was the guy that would hit refresh every 5 minutes.  Now, I will spend no more than 30 minutes a day on Ebay.

It depends.  On a typical day it probably is only 15 minutes.  But in the past and when I'm really into buying games it can be upwards of 2-3 hours.

15 to 30 minutes normally.  After I have exhausted all regular searches I start looking for misspelled or misplaced auctions.
