anyone had any luck with buy it now option-so many items have been selling with one bid I figured that buy it now might just be a quicker way to end the misery-

About Buy-It-Now...I'm not a big seller but I use it for repeat items often. If an item didnt get a bid the first time, buy it now seems to work often. Anyone else notice that??

I add a BIN to relists.
I have found most of the items that are going to sell.
Do in the first 24 hours of the relist.
The BIN on relists sounds like a good idea to me. Do you relist at the same price as the original listing? How much difference in price is there between your start price and your BIN price?

I use it alot on higher ticket items, $30.00 or more & it does very well. I have had bids that went over the BIN which surprised me.

I used to put BIN on all of my patterns. But then I noticed that some of the same items were selling for much higher. I stopped doing BINs totally and my sales are way up.
