Mentor2 years agoYou have bids on some of your auctions and you do not need to accept them. You wait until the auctions end, receive payment from the buyers, and then ship. This not the same things as best offers. If you do not respond to best offers, they expire.

·2 years agoIf you mean Best Offers, once they are expired (upon the earliest of: the time stated--seems to be 24 hours these days but eBay keeps changing that--on the offer, the first bid on the auction for an auction format listing, the listing ends for any reason) they cannot be accepted. I'm not sure what the seller interface looks like when there is an expired offer to tell you it is expired or if it gets put somewhere else or disappears entirely.

Mentor2 years agoBids and Offers are two very different things on eBay. You cannot accept bids as eBay automatically accepts them for you and the auction will go on until the listing duration is reached and then the winner is chosen.
Offers can only be accepted for 24 to 48 hours and then are removed and cannot be acted on. Unfortunately eBay is not very good at letting you know an offer has been made on an item. Once removed there is no way to see who made the offer. Also, with auctions the Make Offer option goes away once bidding has started so no offers can be made after that.
