Online auctions have many advantages: often on sites like eBay, you can find the rarest items at very attractive prices or determine the price yourself.
Instructions
Step 1
Wait. Perhaps, before the end of the auction for the item you have bid on, another user of the resource will make a large bid. According to the terms of the eBay website, when a new rate appears, the previous one will expire. Be sure to make sure that you have not set up automatic rate update and do not update the rate yourself. It is worth considering the price and specifics of the product. Inexpensive popular products such as fashion accessories, appliances, interior items are always in great demand.
Step 2
Give in to your opponent. In the event that if the bid is the highest and the auction is about to end, you win the item. If after the end of the auction you decide not to purchase it, first of all inform the seller about it. Write him a private e-mail and ask him to cede the item to the buyer who placed the bid before you. Show your ability to persuade, and the salesperson will meet you.
Step 3
Convince the seller. The situation is different if you are the only user who has expressed a desire to buy an item. According to the rules of the eBay site, a bid is an obligation to the seller, that is, if you win the auction, you are obliged to purchase the item. There is no special button on the site that cancels a bet. The only way out is to agree with the seller to cancel the deal and prolong the auction. Explain why you decided not to make a purchase, what problems you encountered, what made you doubt. Sometimes sellers list one item for sale several times.
Step 4
Leave it as it is, to the detriment of your reputation. If you won an auction and change your mind about purchasing an item, but you cannot contact or negotiate with the seller, this may affect your reputation as a buyer. Information about the unpaid item will appear on your page. If in a short period of time you do not pay for three or more goods, your account will be blocked and deleted.
