Retracting a bid so I can Buy It Now

Hello
Hope someone can help.
I have been looking for a new lunch bag for my daughter. I found one that she loves finally!! It was starting price £6.99 or Buy It Now £8.99. I entered a bid and it is still on £6.99 and the buy it now has disappeared. However!! I am now wishing that I had just clicked buy it now. No one else has bid on it, it still has over 5 days to go, if I retract my bid will the buy it now reappear?!!
Thanks for your help in advance! :beer:

Thanks for your help x
Try sending the seller a message explaining, and ask them whether they could end it early (using "sell to the highest bidder") and add a supplement to the invoice to bring it up to BIN price.They deem him their worst enemy who tells them the truth. -- Plato0 -
