Offered cash before auction end

oxley5 — Fri, 24 Jun 2016 06:57:45 GMT

Hi, Someone has offered $450 cash for an item that has a $500 reserve. There have been no bids as yet and there is over 1 day to go. Is it within ebay rules for me to accept that bid? What do I need to do?

Thanks.

It's against the rules to end the listing in order to sell outside of eBay, but if you wanted to, since there are no bids as yet, you could revise the start price to $450 and allow the buyer to place a bid for that amount, then either let the auction run its course, of end the listing and sell to the current highest bidder (note that a 9.9% final value fee will be payable on the final sale amount, including postage).
