Managing Best Offers and Second Chance Offers

With the Best Offer option, buyer can offer to purchase Buy It Now items at a price of their choice.

With the Second Chance Offer option, sellers can offer an item to any buyer who bid on a listing Sellers can use Second Chance offers when:

• The winning bidder does not pay

• The seller has duplicate items

• The minimum price is not met in a Reserve Price Auction.

eBay adds a note to an item when you receive a Best Offer or a Second Chance Offer for it.

For Second Chance Offers, the lower of the two amounts in the Price column is the highest bid the seller received. The higher amount is what the seller's current offer. Buyers can accept, decline or take other action on the offer.

Managing items you’ve won

In the Won section, you can view all your recent eBay purchases, check if you've paid for the items and leave feedback for the seller.
