You can run the auction for as short or as long a time as you want.
You can run it for one day (actually less - .5, etc) if you want
very easily.

The only thing is, if they don't sell, they'll be automatically
relisted for 7 days, since that's a static value for now in the
script.  But I'd say if you run the auctions for a day or three and
they don't sell, you either need to adjust the price or let it run
longer anyway.
