Should I put a buy-it-now on?

singlemum1983

Hi, I have up for auction a bundle of baby girls summer clothes. Its finishing on Monday evening and already has 2 bids on. A lady has contacted me asking do i have a BIN price as she wants to take them back to Canada with her but is leaving on Monday? Where do I stand, am I allowed to do this? I thought once it had bids you had to let the auction run its course...
And then if i put a BIN on, and she didnt take it up, would it still run with the original bids on??
Thanks in advance people

hi yes you can just add a buy it now

You can't add a BIN if the auction already has bids but what you could do is ask the bidder to bid so that she is the highest bidder and then you have the option to end the auction with her as the highest bidder. Then change your invoice to the price you agreed before the auction ended.

Hmm, i'm a bit sceptical about this. It worries me that you won't get payment before you have to send them to her and if you do, it may not clear. She is completely untracable if anythin goes wrong.

Now IF she is planning on paying you cash and picking the items up, I can't see any problem.

Just be careful. Be awful to see you back here in a week saying she has taken off with clothes and money.
