Term limit for private broker trades?

For a while there all private trades had an expiration date listed. Now they don't. Is there a set amount of time each one will last for? There is nothing about this change in the help guide/updates. Thanks in advance.

im not sure about the set time, but if it's rejected then you have a safety period of about 700 mins to recover your goods, just in case you're offline at the time

Also, you should know that if your trade does expire, you won't get those 720 minutes (12 hours) to recover your goods, they will instead be automatically transfered to you. This is bad if you have naquadah that is to automatically come to you at a time when you can't retrieve it.

trades on the broker last 48 hours before expiring. once they expire, all goods are return to their owners and are in the open.

if a trade is rejected however, the goods are held in a kind of stasis for 12 hours until you claim them, if you exceed the 12 hours then the goods are automatically returned to you and appear in the open
