New to Ebay -changing price in auction

Also new to ebay and have listed a few things free for this weekend.

Just wanted to know if I can change the price on my listed items (either up or down) if no-one has yet put in a bid. Also I have had an email from someone who wants to buy it now and it is in a 7 day auction. Again if there are no bids can I just change that to Buy it now and hope he bids on it.

Thanks in advance

    You can change the price easy until there is a bid on item just by editing the listing.

    If you arrange a price with interested party then list it as a BIN or just edit listing to change price.

    Beware of buyers that offer a silly low price and intend on selling it on themselves or make you change the auction then dont buy it.

    They prey on new sellers. Make complaints the item is not as described or in a worse state that they thought.

    If you refund half the money they maybe happy. etc etc etc..

    Then you get the fake emails saying the items been paid for when they have not.
