    This is the link on Ebay's help page for changing a listing - I think the original auction has to have more than 12 hours to run for you to be able to do it.
    It costs, so be careful who you do it for, you need to be sure they really will BIN - I did it once and the buyer then made a bid (meaning the BIN was unuseable!) and she then got huffy when I told her she'd just have to bid now! Of course she never did!

    If you already have a bid on the item then I don't think you can add a BIN.....

    Standard advice. If you want the price offered, send a paypal invoice and then pull the listing when paid. If they don't pay, you've lost nothing.
