how do you use the advanced listing tool? There is no check box by my fixed price. There is literally nowhere to add a best offer option, unless I list it as an auction...

What about if the listing is already made? I tried searching for it while I was making one, but still didn't see it.

I figured it out but I had to remake a whole new listing. So I had to pay another insertion fee. All well. Thanks for the help guys.

You can revise an active listing to add the 'Best Offer' option the same way. I know that at some point, maybe within 24 hours of the listing ending, that option goes away and you're stuck with what you have.

For some reason I couldn't. I checked several times and I created the listing last night. But then I created a new listing and was able to. Not sure why that happened.

I think its actually set up so you cant add a best offer if you didnt initially have it, its never let me add that later either

I just checked one of my current listings that I have set up as just BIN. I am able to revise and add the 'Best Offer' option if I want. I don't have a store or anything like that, so I'm not sure why anyone else wouldn't be able to.

Crow check one that doesn't have the best offer, I've had the problems personally for the ones without it that I've tried to add it too

Yes, I can add the best offer option even when the original listing didn't have it.

Although, I do remember a few listings a while ago that I couldn't change the options on, but I thought it was because they were too close to ending. That didn't seem to be the case for murrellington, so I'm not sure.

Hmmm maybe it does take it away after the listing has been up so long. Heck could just be the system being glitchy.

I'm really not sure. The only limitation I can see is that you need a feedback of at least 10 to use 'Best Offer' in the first place, and it obviously has to be a fixed price listing. Other than that, I can't find anything that would explain why one couldn't revise their listing to add or remove that option.

I did see, however, that the Best Offer isn't available for all categories.

That could be it. I cant remember what I had problems with I think it was an old gun holster but I know for a fact it wasnt a coin.

I wonder why they dont let you use it for everything, I dont see how thats any different than just starting something at a certain price

Well I made the same exact listing twice. One didn't let me do best offer option, so I created it again and it did. Nothing was different at all, that's why I'm confused.
