Forced to fill in Buy it Now
 

For the last 24 hours, I'm unable to list an auction without BUY IT NOW. If I leave the BUY IT NOW field blank, it won't let me continue. It only lets me continue if I put in a BUY IT NOW price. This forces me to pay extra listing fees.

Is this a new tactic to get rid of auctions?

Hmmm... If I use Explorer it's fine. If I use Firefox or Chrome, it forces me to fill out the BUY IT NOW field before I can continue. It's driving me nuts. I'm accustomed to Firefox. Anyone knows what's going on?

perhaps try to delete cookies? I know it resets the ebay forms that I am trying to fill out.

Are you selecting the buy it now tab? next to the auction tab? :noidea:

I've tried deleting both cookies and flash cookies and doesn't solve the problem. Seems to be a glitch with E bay because sometimes it goes through fine. I didn't select the Buy It Now tab. It's like they were trying to force me to set a Buy It Now price on my auctions to collect some extra listing fees.

Makes me do it too but it seems to be fine if u just put the value of 0 in. It still shows up as just and auction. Must be a bug im sure they will fix it soon.

I had this problem and just contacted the chat system. They worked it out for me and I was up and running within min,

They had me start the auction fresh though. Instead of a relist. If you completely start the auctions fresh on glitches like this it usually fixes them. According to the person I spoke with. It worked perfect for me.

I also had another issue with the shipping part where it would give me an error. Just did the same thing and it fixed it. give that a try.

relisting bugged

right after someone bid on it, the buy it now price was gone.. it was weird.

but for my next listing.. i just did an entire new listing and it was fine.. it was odd

Yeah, Pretty easy fix when you get into a bind I have learned. Works every time for me. Must just be a glitch and the only way to fix is to get away from the original listing. Anyway, Glad it worked for you.
