Buyers are free to make an offer on your item or on a bundle of your items. In response, you can accept, decline, or make a counteroffer. If you don’t want to negotiate on the price of your item, we suggest indicating in the item description that your price is firm.

How do I make a counteroffer?

To make a counteroffer, tap Counter offer on the buyer’s offer. The buyer then has 24 hours to accept or decline. If they accept, they’ll be automatically charged the new price.

What if I don't want to negotiate prices?

If you don’t want to negotiate on the price of your items, we suggest indicating that the price is firm in the item description.

Why can’t I accept an offer, counteroffer or send an offer?

If a sale will cause the seller to exceed the gross sales threshold for 1099-K reporting requirements and the seller hasn’t submitted a verified W-9, the seller will not be able to accept an offer, make a counteroffer, or send an offer to likers. In addition, the item will not be available to “Add to cart” and/or “Buy now.” In this case, once the seller has submitted a verified W-9, the offer and/or sale on the item can proceed as usual. If the seller does not submit their verified W-9 within the 24 hour offer window and then accepts the offer, the offer simply expires as usual. To submit W-9 information, visit the Tax Center.
