    One option would be to end the current listings and relist the books at the agreed on price as a bundle/single listing, letting the buyer know the new listing number so he/she can purchase.

    Congrats on your sale.

    Best wishes for many sales to all,

    Good idea.....or, if you do want to lower the price some, you could just give a discount on the shipping equal to what you would discount on the books...........save relisting......
    Ta-Ta for now!

    Excellent suggestion, Your Majesty.

    As eBid does not have a "Or Best Offer (OBO)" the option posted above is your recourse...great sale!

    I'd have asked them to go ahead and buy, then discounted the selling price, not shipping. You can do either.

    Thanks, Kim - I didn't realize you could discount the selling price, too! Will look at it when I have my next invoice to send!!
