I don't think that's the issue.  I understand that all sales dates follow Rendo Time (CST).  I believe most users understand that they have to account for the difference between their time zone and CST.  The problem here is that it is still (as I write this) 10:27 AM CST (Rendo Time) on 2/5/10, yet a sale which was listed to end on 2/5/10 is already over.

When a merchant sets an end time for a sale, I believe it is always CST.  The confusion has arisen because it appears some folks (like me) assumed all sales end at the end of the day specified, not some arbitrary time during that day.
