I am having the same exact problem. Have been an eBay member since 2001 and the local Pacific time shows correctly on my old computer but seems to have defaulted to EST on the new computer I just purchased. The computer's system clock is set correctly but I'll be darned if I can find any way in the eBay labyrinth to get on local time. The OP's question has been up for six weeks. Is this "Answer Center" monitored?
