I had a sale scheduled last week to end last night at 11:59. I woke up today to see it was still active. I always keep the name eBay gives sales events, which is the date the sales ends, in this case, "Sale event ending Mar 23, 2025".
When I checked today, it was somehow scheduled to end April 17th. I didn't update anything with this sale all week, so somehow the end date changed on me.
Make sure to double check any sales you may have running to make sure it ends when its supposed to. Normally I get a bit of an uptick at the end of a sale, but didn't this time and was a bit confused, chalked it up to a slower weekend, but now realize this played a role.

Good advice. Did you have only one sale event going?
I've had two or three running at a time and have found that if you are not paying careful attention, its easy to overlook the end date setting or, in my case, to get confused about which event was ending when.

Yes, just the one. I run multiple at a time for special sales events like Black Friday or Christmas. I thought about maybe doing that again soon to get rid of some inventory before summer, but I'm going to hold off on that until I know the events are running as they should. 😅
