I see this is your first effort at selling. I strongly recommend you not list anything else until you get a handle on how everything works first. Below is a link to how to sell at auctions.
Keep in mind that this is the holiday gift-giving season. Running auctions rather than selling with fixed-price listings may affect how many buyers you attract. Most shoppers need their items now and will not want to wait for a 10-day auction to play out.
Wish you much success in your selling efforts and hang in there!
You mean on an auction? Sellers do not "accept" a bid. On auctions buyers are free to bid at will while the auction is active.
If you are talking about someone sending you an OFFER, that is different than bidding on your auction. If you allow for the Make an Offer button on your auctions, then a buyer might send you what they would like to pay for the item. Just follow the instructions on the screen. Read them carefully. Don't assume anything. You can accept the offer, counter the offer or deny the offer. Completely up to you.

·2 years agoAnd if it is an Offer, the buyer cannot ask for a change in the Shipping charge.
It is useful if you are accepting an Offer, to say that immediately in the text box.
