Auction
A listing format where buyers bid against each other and the highest bid wins when the timer expires. On eBay, auctions run for 1, 3, 5, 7, or 10 days. Best for rare or hard-to-price items where competitive bidding can push the final price above what you'd get with a fixed listing. Risky for common items — you might sell below market value.
