Hi all
I have been selling a car on ebay for the past day, but did not put a buy it now on.
Would it be too late to put one on now?, as a friend said that a lot of people who bid dont buy, and with a buy it now the buyer would be genuine.
I have received offers around £250 and wanted to put a buy it now of £300, as my wife goes away to hungary on sunday and needs the money from the car so we wont have time to relist.
What do you lot think? |

My main question was, is it ok to put a buy it now after a day and some received bids?.
I think what my friend was getting at is that with a buy it now people will make the trip to view the car and decide if they want it, but if it is just the winning bidder i am limited to just that one person and have to hope that they are genuine. |

I don't think you can put a buy it now on after the auction has started. In fact, when we had a bike up for sale I put a buy it now on at the start of the sale so people could see what sort of money I wanted for it, and it disappeared after the first bid! Ebay said at the time that was normal practice, I haven't bothered selling anything big since..... ____________________ Sod falling in love, I wanna fall in chocolate. |
