How to edit Reserve or Start price - not showing (no bids on Auction)
Answered
The Reserve or Start price can't be inserted or edited on my auction. I created a buy now but can't add the reserve price. I've only just created the listing, no bids.

Gary-NZStocked Community SuperuserYou can't change from a Buy Now only listing to an auction once it's started, so best edit it so it finishes sooner, then relist and then change it so you have a figure in the Start price field. You can have a (hidden) reserve if you want or just have the start price in which case it becomes the reserve.

Callum Community SuperuserHello Hayley. As the help file explains you can't change from buynow to auction on a live listing. Your only option is to wait for item to close and change it then (you can edit the end time to speed that up) or withdraw it and relist it.

Hi folks
Is this the same for a classified listing too?
I want put a price with "or near offer" instead of "price on application" but it doesn't seem to come out on the ad. I'm selling a business so it's already cost me 150 to place the listing and I don't want to do anything to jeopardise my listing.
Any ideas?
Thanks
John

Hello John. If the option is not there for you when you edit the listing, or greyed out, that's probably your answer.
Normally you choose when you make your listing, like the below picture shows.
Generally classifieds can be edited in the first 7 days only, so if that's passed you will be out of luck as well.
