    No not really, the chances are someone will bid and wipe it out and you will waste your money. If you have someone requesting a buy now price ask them to bid that amount and if it is reached before the end of the auction you can sell at their bid price.

    I don't think it's possible. You can cancel bids and relist item as a buy it now but not the same item if it has bids on it.
