| Help... Ebay question Hi guys, I shop all the time on Ebay, but never sell. I'm trying to get a seller to sell me something with the buy it now option, except she can't add it because someone has already bid on the item. But she also doesn't know how to end the auction early so that I can buy the item directly. Anyone know how to do this? |

| I have to agree with Chachi. I think you can only end it early if there are no bids. If you go to ebay help there should be a search feature of how to end it early & that could probably explain it all to you. Good luck!

| The way I understand it is you can only end an auction early 'IF' it has more than 12 hours left and there are no bids. You might want to check with ebay to be sure though. |

| You can only end it if no one has bid... Once someone has bid on it, that is a committment to sell/buy... |

| She can end it even if it has bids. She just needs to go to this page: http://pages.ebay.com/help/sell/ques...dlist-now.html THere is a clickable phrase that says: End My Listing Early form. She will be asked to sign in to ebay at that point. Then she enters her listing item number, it will ask her if she wants to cancel all bids or sell to the high bidder. In this case she would cancel the bids. Reason is item is no longer available or error in listing...whatever. Then she can relist with a buy it now. If she sells direct from an ebay listing that she ends though, she can get suspended from ebay...so she needs to do the relist. |

| :::looking around::: who me?? I have tons of experience with buying stuff on ebay.. and being a hawk and watching everything I've never sold anything. But I think I'm about to make my biggest purchase on e-bay. I'm a little nervous, even though I know that ebay is safe |

| yes, techinically it can be. But if you are offering a seller an amount that they are willing to end the auction for, then they will end the auction for you. I have had sellers do this many times. It's really not a big deal. Vilette, I'm looking at buying a mac laptop. |

| I've also ended auctions early if someone was interested and was willing to pay what I actually wanted. |
