Some sellers offer you the choice to bid or Buy It Now. Other sellers may only offer the Buy It Now option. With Buy It Now, you have a special opportunity to purchase the item immediately without waiting for an online auction to end.

If available, click the Buy It Now button at the bottom of the item page. If there is more than one item available, indicate your desired quantity and confirm your purchase. In some cases, a seller may require immediate payment or deposit with PayPal. In this case, it is important to complete your purchase right away, as the item will remain available for purchase until your payment transaction has been confirmed.

Note:When you use the Buy It Now option, you are entering into a contract with your seller. Make sure that you want the item before you bid or buy.
