    Ending an auction early to sell my item to a much higher offer from a buyer.
                     

    I have an auction item for sale that is currently at $325.  A buyer has offered to buy it now for $425.  How can I sell it to the buyer for the $425?

    If this is the walkman, you should not end that listing. 

     

    It's against eBay policy to do so, and you will end up paying Final value Fees on both $325 (auction bid) and $425 (new sale)

     

    Let the auction run. The buyer is offering you $425 because he thinks it will go higher than that. You have 9 bidders on that auction, it should go well for you.

    Most bids occur in the final minutes and seconds of the sale.
