An EBay WWYD.

I nearly always ask for Buy it Nows, I never have the patience to wait for an auction to end, its not always people trying it on.

I asked for a buy it now on a fireplace a few months ago, the starting price was £10 and I offered him £20. The seller said he had had a few offers like that so wanted to let the auction run unless I wanted to offer enough to make it worth him ending it. So I said i'd wait and won it for £10.50

How much did it go for in the end?

I didn't say it was always a try on Personally I tend to let auctions run regardless having agreed to a BIN on one occasion and getting effed about

Another good result there though. An object lesson in starting at a price you'd be happy to end at!
