Buy It Now allows you to buy or sell your items instantly at a set price.
Buyers: Purchase items immediately - no bidding or waiting. It's the fastest, most convenient way to get the item you want.
Sellers: Sell items at the price you want without waiting for your listing to end. Example: Set the price for your item at $50 and sell it for $50.
How does it work?
Sellers: Choose from two Buy It Now options and make faster sales.
Listing with a Buy It Now feature
Fixed Price only (no bidding)
When you add a Buy It Now feature to your listing
Buyers will have the option to buy your item instantly OR place a bid on your listing.
The Buy It Now feature will only be available when there are no bids on the item. As soon as a bid is placed, the Buy It Now feature disappears and your item will sell via auction.
You can sell only one item per listing.
When you list an item at a set price
Buyers purchase your item immediately at the price you set.
The Fixed Price feature will not disappear.
You can sell more than one item at the same time - saving you time and money!
