Ebay UK Help.................?
I currently have a live auction on Ebay, there is 1 bidso far for .99p I have just had an offer for £60 which I would like to accept, however bid only ends in 2 days time. How can I end the bid now and accept the offer of £60? There is no buy it now price Your help would be appreciated.

- Edit your listing and add a buy it now price
- You can withdraw it from the auction but it will not help your credibility...........
- You could send a paypal invoice and once the payment has cleared you could end the auction This way you can also avoid the ebay final value fee
- I don`t think you can add a "buy it now" once a bid has been received. If you`ve had an offer of £60 it`s more than likely that the final bid will be higher than this. I`ve always found that most bids don`t come in until the last day and even the last couple of hours. EDIT. Just found this. For auction-style listings: If more than 12 hours remain before the listing ends, you might be able to add, edit or remove a Buy It Now price as long as the listing has not received any bids.
- It's bad practice to end your auction early unless you have a valid reason for doing so - you can see those reasons here: http://pages.ebay.co.uk/help/sell/end_early.html Having said that, it is your item and no-one can force you to sell it. You'll find a link to the "end my listing early" form near the top of the page in the link I just gave. When you've ended the listing, list the item again but this time with a Buy It Now price instead of an auction start price - you'll need to select the Fixed Price tab when you create the listing. Don't use "Auction with Buy It Now" because as soon as someone places a bid the BIN price will disappear and you'll be back to square one. Then hope that no-one else hits the BIN button before your intended buyer gets then chance.
- If the offer was made to you through the official 'Make Me an Offer' button you can similar follow the link in the email to end the auction early and make the user that made you the offer the winning bidder.
