Another Ebay question for you experts

I am curious if you can still set up an auction for a specific buyer. I believe you use to could do it. If you still can, would someone tell me how? Thanks

    They used to allow pre-approved bidders on everything but now it says they will allow it on high profile items.

    List the auction under an odd category with a bad title. If you want to sell a rackie robinson card, maybe a title like cardboard and list it under industrial supplies or something like that. As long as you describe it right and put the right picture I think you should be ok.

    How about set a BIN at 10x the market value and use best offer?

    Have the time set up so the other person does it right away?

    Winpitcher,
    Levi, BMW and Memory Lane already do that and they don't sell the cards. Oh, I forgot they only do the 10x market value thing. Just kidding.

    In Steve's scenario the buyer can not use the Microsoft discount with a best offer, and that may be the reason for setting up the auction for the specific buyer. If the Microsoft discount isn't the reason for creating the auction for a specific buyer, then Steve's idea is a good one since the listing fees aren't high for starting at a high price anymore.
