Best Offer is used to allow your customers to offer you a price other than your set price. You may set a minimum price that you are willing to take, and set an auto accept price as well.
If you set a Minimum Price and you receive an offer, you will be notified that an offer has been made. It will be up to you to accept or deny it. If you set an auto accept amount, then the system will automatically process the transaction at that price or above.
This feature can only be used with Fixed Price Listings.
Adjusting your Best Offer Default Settings:
1. Browse to Settings >Channels
2. Expand the eBay Channel you are going to be using.
3. Once here scroll down the page to “Best Offer” within Features and turn On the toggle if you need to enable it (else keep it Off)
4. Click on Save Settings in the bottom right hand corner to record your changes and you are ready to list.
Using Best Offer during listing:

2. Add a Best Offer Minimum Price.
- You will receive an email if an offer is made above this price.
