Default 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.

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 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.
