If you offer Best Offer on your eBay listings, you know the drain: notifications all day, lowball offers to reject, fair offers you almost miss because you were asleep or at work. The fix is built right into eBay, and once you set it, your listings negotiate for you around the clock. Here is how to use auto-accept and auto-decline without leaving money on the table.<\/p>\n
When you enable Best Offer on a listing, eBay lets you set two thresholds. Auto-accept<\/em> automatically says yes to any offer at or above a price you choose, so a good offer becomes an instant sale with no action from you. Auto-decline<\/em> automatically rejects any offer below a floor you set, so lowballs disappear before they ever reach your inbox. Anything in between those two numbers still comes to you to decide manually.<\/p>\n A simple approach that works:<\/p>\n You can set these when you create or revise a listing. Confirm the current placement of the Best Offer fields in your listing flow, since eBay tweaks the interface now and then.<\/p>\n For the listings themselves, Nifty is my engine. I build once and push everywhere, and it catches sales instantly, so my offer settings and my inventory stay in sync across platforms without me thinking about it.<\/p>\n Best Offer should work for you, not chain you to your phone. Then your listings close deals while you sleep.<\/p>\nHow to set your thresholds the smart way<\/h2>\n
