once you bid on an item, the 'buy it now' price goes away. You can always check to see if it is something from an ebay store...they usually have multiple numbers of the same items for sale, then you would want to bid on the item and if you do not get it for the cheaper price - buy it now from a different listing or directly from the sellers store. Hope this makes sense...
good luck to you |

You start out with a $750 bid. Then go to www.hammersnipe.com and sign up for their free sniping service. Place a bid on the auction at $900.01. The only risk is if someone goes ahead and decides to buy it now for $900, your S.O.L. |

What I would try doing is contacting the seller and making an offer. Sometimes this works but others it won't. It's worth a shot. I'm not sure, but I think when someone starts to bid on an item, the buy it now price disappears but not sure. |

Your question is everybody's question - if you don't pay the buy it now price, you will miss it when it goes over that price. But if it never does, you will have paid more money. This is what an auction is for. It is meant to be like this. |

you can either message them and ask them if they will take it for something lower, or you cant get it for anything less. Normally, if the seller is accepting lower payments for the item on Buy It Now, underneath the Buy It Now, it says Or Best Offer...
so if they didnt put Or Best Offer, i think you are out of luck and have to pay the buy it now! |

You can use a sniping program to submit bids for you up to a maximum that you set. Keep in mind that once you bid on it, the BIN price no longer exists and the price may go up higher than that. There is no guarantee that you will get it for less. |

You contact the seller, ask them if they'll take $x.xx for it. If they agree, they should do a buy it now for you.
If not, then just bid.. |

bid $900,(don't click buy it now, though) then someone will have to bid at least that much to beat you,but you only have to outbid the last bidder, for instance you are willing to pay $900, so that is your high bid ,but if i bid on the item i might not be willing to go that high say im only willing to go $800 ,if no others bid you get it for 801.00 i think.i think it's a dollar to outbid,but around there somewhere.if you are the only bidder you get it at starting price. |

Watch the item closely. If it gets within range of the buy it now price way before the auction is over-go ahead and get it. If not-bid within the last three seconds and you should be good. |

place your bid for 750 and then place another bid for 900 this way it will automatically place bids for you up to 900 and back people off from bidding because they think that there are 2 people bidding on it |
