    evenstar - nowt you can do, you've got bids so say no and tell them to bid on the item if they want it that badly
    well you could cancel bids but if it were me, i'd say no
  • My OH thinks I should ask her to pay and end item
    Feel bad though,but its not garanteed to reach anything like that
    Dont know what to do
  • could I ask her to bid the £35 before 12hr and I will end item then

    even if she bid the £35, no guarantee it will get up that high as it will only go as high as the other people's maximum bet

    You can relist as a Buy It Now just for her at £35....

    Personally I would not cancel the other auction until she has paid though. Just in case.

    you cant change a live auction once its had bids on it

    enfield was saying that you could start a new BIN listing (ebay fee 40p) and then you send the link to the person who wants to pay £35 and then they can win it and pay for it
