I have a item that i just checked on that in my active section on my account it says 2 hours left, but when i search for it like a buyer would it says its over. The ending time is 00:15 pst. But it ended at 00:15 est time. So am i losing out on 2 hours of bid? or is the west coast getting to keep biding and if so isnt that wrong to the top bidder right now? It could just be ebay hasnt updated yet i dont know. Just wondering if anyone has had that happen and found the answer out.My wife has the phone or id call them.
 

That sounds more like a computer issue on your end because when an item ends, it ends on ebay no matter where on earth you are. If you list it for 7 days it will end exactly 7 days later. It seems like it would be a wasted phone call at this point because I highly doubt it's ebay that is the issue.

Thank you iron patch. I realized what happened when I was telling my wife about it. When she set the computer up she didnt change the time zone. So the search clock was by my computer and the listing clock is by ebay. Changed the zone fixed it.
