offers

Question

I have received 2 offers on a posting that I just listed and hour ago, one for $200 over asking and one $400 over asking price and it is on an auction. Just wondering what I should do since it has only just been listed

When you add the best offer or buy it now options to an auction listing they are only available until the first bid is placed. Once there is a bid the auction proceeds and is sold to the highest bidder.

There is nothing for you to do until the auction is over and your buyer has paid.

FYI- If you have a buy it now price, on an auction or fixed price listing, and you are offered over the buy it now price it is an attempt to scam you. Why would a buyer want to pay more than you are asking? They will ask for your contact information and send a fake payment notice hoping you will send them the item before noticing you were not paid.

Ignore all offers like this and add the buyer to your blocked buyer list.
