During Your Auction

  1. Answer questions promptly.
    Good customer service and quick response times keep customers happy and encourage them to continue bidding on your current and future auctions. However, if someone asks an inappropriate question, don't answer it. This way it will not show up for others to see.

  2. Customize your event notification.
    Click on "Options" > "Set Event Notification" to be notified by email or Yahoo! Messsenger whenever a bidder posts a question and when the auction closes. Set up Yahoo! Messenger to let bidders know when you're online and we'll display the Messenger icon on your item page so bidders can ask you questions easily.

  3. Manage your auctions.
    You can easily view all your auctions at any time by clicking on "My Auctions" > "Selling." Track and manage your auctions from this page. You can view the number of times your item page has been visited, or click on "Manage" to add to the description, cancel bids, close the auction early, or cancel the auction. When you cancel a bid, you also have the option of blacklisting the user, so that this person will not be able to bid on any of your auctions. You can edit your blacklist at any time by clicking on "Options."
