Bidding is an offer (often competitive) of setting a price one is willing to pay for something. A price offer is called a bid. The term may be used in context of auctions, stock exchange, card games, or real estate transactions.

Bidding up means raising a price for an item by a series of rising bids. It may be unlawful, if done by a group of persons with an interest in raising the price. In traditional auctions, bidding up is a natural course of events. Since 1990s, with the emergence of online auctions, reverse auctions gained popularity, in which the traditional roles of buyers and sellers are reversed, and the goal of bidding is to drive the price down, similar to bid shopping practice of selecting a contractor to do a job.

Open Bidding

Open bidding is a type of bidding that allows bids from all parties desirous of bidding on a project.

Can i end an ebay item early to sell to highest bidder?
Q. I listed my item for 10 days with a reserve ,the reserve was met and i dont want to wait the 10 days out id rather end auction and sell to the highest bidder. Can i do that or is that against ebay policy?

A. You can. eBay doesn't like this, most likely because if you end it early, your item will probably sell for less and then eBay loses some of the Final Value Fee. Of course ebay doesn't actually say this. But who cares what ebay thinks... it's not like anything bad will happen to you if you end it early. Also, other people who are 'watching' your item may also be let down because they were waiting to bid. If you still want to end it, bring up your "My eBay" page. Scroll down to where it says "Items I'm Selling". You'll see a pull-down menu on the right and it'll read "Sell Similar". Click on the arrow and select "end item". From there, it's pretty self-explanatory.

What happens if you block a bidder on eBay?
Q. I want to know if it says something like "this seller refuses to let you bid" or if it's discrete.

A. When a blocked bidder tries to bid, a little box pops up and lets them know they have been blocked and unless they contact the seller, they can not bid. It's a bit of a surprise to the buyer, but most know why it has been done. I have over 50 bidders blocked, and only one buyer asked me why. I explained why they were blocked, and would not take them off the list. do not hesitate to block a buyer. From eBay: "Sellers can make their listings unavailable to a specified list of bidders. Blocked bidders will receive an error message that states they are not allowed to bid on that seller's listings. If you are blocked from a listing and want to discuss the situation with the seller, click the seller's user ID or the Ask the seller a… [cont.]
