Buy and sell faster with WineCommune's Buy it! Program
What is Buy It!?
Buy it! is an exciting optional enhancement to your listings. As a seller, if you choose to use the Buy it! feature at the time of listing, you will be able to name a price at which you would be willing to sell your item to any buyer who meets your specified price. Your listing will be run as a normal auction, but will now feature a Buy it! price. Buyers will have the option to buy your item instantly without waiting for the listing to end or can bid on your item as usual.
Seller Information
Do your customers hate waiting for your auctions to end?
Are there buyers just itching to purchase your items immediately?
With Buy it! they can. When you list, simply add the FREE Buy it! feature to your items. With Buy it!, you'll be able to specify a price at which you are willing to sell the item immediately. For buyers this means an end of waiting and the ability to purchase your items immediately. For sellers this means faster transactions at the price you specify.
Here's how it works.
At the time of listing an item, you have the option to specify a price at which you would be willing to sell your item (Buy it! price). Remember: If you are listing an item with a Buy it! price, please remember to specify in your Item description what additional shipping and handling charges may be added to the price.
Note: Your Buy it! price must be greater or equal to your minimum bid price or your reserve price.
Once a Buy it! price is set, a buyer has the option to buy your item immediately, which would end the auction, or place a bid on your item as usual.
Here are some tips to get the most out of the feature:
- Accept credit cards when you offer Buy it!. Buyers who have told us they will use Buy it! want to pay for the items immediately with credit cards. By using Paypal you'll be able to offer buyers what they are looking for.
- Keep your Buy it! prices competitive. If you set Buy it! prices that are too high buyers may be alienated from your item and they may fail to bid.
