Item.StartTime may be a little different from Item.ScheduledTime in the request
Summary
Listings scheduled for a given time may show start times of within a few seconds different of their scheduled listing time. See the AddItem request and response xmls below for example.
The best practice for persist listing time of a scheduled eBay item is to record the StartTime and EndTime returned in AddItem or RelistItem api response not the ScheduleTime in your local repository.
