Buy it now more risk than auction listings?
 

Hey all,

Quick question, I have discussed this with a few other stealth sellers I know, they seem to think that selling an item as a buy it now is more risky than as an auction style listing.

The thought behind this is EB could feel you’re trying to sell the item quickly, as it is a high risk item or that your more of a business seller and therefore less under the radar….. thoughts?

I have been selling for a fair few months now as auction listings to be safe, buy I much prefer BIN!

i personally dont see anything wrong with buy now. also you say your account is a few months old aswell. i dont think you would have a problem to be honest.

i used to think this but i just experimented with a buy it now on a newish stealth and seems to be going well on 2 weeks of selling now

*touch wood

its been ok for me on a few accounts

With my experience it was more risky.. Got my listing took off, even though the reg auction stlye listings werent...

Depends on quantity and type of product.

Only single items and around £100. Mildly high risk but not Vero.

I have tried both with success, I am just thinking long term

i only sell buy it now, never had a problem.

i only sell buy it now also,in high quantity,never had any problems.it 100% depend on what you are selling.
btw bin option it takes longer to sell than auction style,since it takes a few days until your listings come's to the second or first page.
