    eBay shop...not a straightforward auction.
  • I see - hummmm - so I put a bid on and wait 89 days to see if I've won?

    MoE, looking at the time of your post it seems that you were dreaming...

    The perks of being a powerseller are few, in fact there is only one really and that's they answer your queries quicker.

    If you actually look at the item, it's for Buy It Now, not auction.
    The ability of skinny old ladies to carry huge loads is phenomenal. An ant can carry one hundred times its own weight, but there is no known limit to the lifting power of the average tiny eighty-year-old Spanish peasant grandmother.

    Lazymoezy if you had an eBay shop you could also list BINs for the same length of time. That is one of the benefits of having an eBay shop.

    I got muddled up, i know that if I was to bid on it the item will be won by my straight forward. But I didnt'nt know that BINs could last longer than auctions.

    Another thing learnt.

    Hi Moe, It's only shop items that show up as BIN's that can last for 90 days, normal BIN's are only 10 days.
