I have listed an item today on ebay and put an auction starting price at £25.00. I did not put a but it now price, because I am new to this so I dont know all this stuff yet.

Anyway, I have had an email from a buyer asking me if I will accept £50 from her for the item. The answer is yes I would accept that BUT I dont know if I am allowed to do that?

What are the rules on this one? Is there any way to finish an auction early. I have a pay pal account and would want the money via that?

Thanks x

    You could send them your paypal address and tell them the listing will be removed once payment has been received
    They might want you to set up a buy it now though

    I would wait to see if you get any more interest before agreeing to a buy it now price usually but not all the time they want it to end early because its worth a lot more
