Sending an offer on eBay allows you to proactively engage with potential buyers who show interest in your items, such as by watching them. This can help speed up the selling process.
Follow these simple steps to send an offer for an eligible item:
- Navigate to Your Selling Area: Go to either My eBay Selling or Seller Hub Active. These sections list the items you currently have for sale.
- Find the Eligible Item: Locate the specific item you wish to send an offer for.
- Initiate the Offer:
- If you are using My eBay Selling, look for and select Send offer next to the eligible item.
- If you are using Seller Hub, look for and select Eligible to send offers next to the item.
- Determine the Offer Price: Choose or enter the price you want to offer the potential buyer.
- Manage Counteroffers (Seller Hub Only):
- If you are in Seller Hub and prefer not to allow buyers to make counteroffers to your price, select the option Don't allow counteroffers.
By following these steps, you can easily send a special price offer to interested buyers, potentially leading to a quicker sale.
