Buy-it-now prices on auction items

Redswing does not have buy-it-now. Here is a workaround using the minimum bid.

Redswing does not have a buy-it-now price. Every item is sold to the highest bidder.

Overview

An item has a title, description, photo, minimum bid, and bid increment. There is no fixed price that ends bidding immediately.

Workaround

  1. Set the item's minimum bid to the price you want to charge.
  2. On the item's paper bid sheet, write "Buy now at this price."
  3. When the first guest writes that price, take the sheet away so nobody else can bid. Tell other guests the item is sold.
  4. Collect payment yourself (cash, check or your own payment link) and record the winner in your own sheet.
