Helps to read the eBid announcements: http://www.ebid.net/forums/showthrea...=1#post1444287

I got an automatic decline when there isn't one....good thing it was easily sorted.

You can't possibly have "best offer" and "auction" on the same listing, it would make no sense. In an auction you bid up from the minimum, in best offer you effectively "bid" down from a fixed price. The two cannot meet.

That is correct.
I have a Make Offer on one of my listings and it can only be done with a Buy Now option.

You are right as usual. Just hate it when you think things through and I just muddle! LOL

This feature is great. Will plan to use it for future listings and for buying. Tried it on one of my existing auctions to see what happens.

P.S. It does not seem to allow the setting of minimum acceptable offers, which can be a source of aggravation, if you receive alot of real low offers.

That's too bad burgy, might try it on a few listings myself if it had a minimum acceptable feature. Maybe eBid will add this in the future...

Best wishes for many sales to all,

Agreed. One thing at a time, get the kinks out then improve/change from there.

Gazza's already said that's planned, predicting it would be requested immediately.

I just added a few more from existing listings. I worked out a "minimum acceptable offer grid" for myself. I do not mind a bit of haggling, as long as it does not become aggravating. If it does, thank goodness for the existing features called "close auction" or "relist auction".

P.S. Also noticed it is not flagged on the listing in any way; like r for "no reserve". It only says "Buy Now". You have to click into the auction to see that it has a "Make an Offer" feature.

That is a sizeable kink. Buyers need to know Make Offer is available without having to open auctions.
