    Default Can I close a live auction early?

    Dilemma: a buyer has clicked Bid instead of Buy-it-now on one of my new listings today.

    Is there a way to change this? I cannot close or cancel the sale myself... can the buyer cancel, I wonder?

    Any help, assistance appreciated...

    Yes. Place buyer on your blackball list, making sure to click box to remove all bids. Once they are off your listing, remove them from your list. They should be able to buy then.

    Great idea - many thanks!

    Will it affect items already won by this buyer and not invoiced/paid for yet as well, I wonder?

    Co-operated with the buyer and it done the trick OK - all sold and unpaid items were not affected either, so a truly great workaround

    - many thanks again to burgyeb
