    Basically, in an auction, the typical method of trade is through a bidding system where the highest bidder would get the deal provided there is no reserve pricing.

    Buy-It-Now (BIN) is a price which the bidder can offer the seller to buy over the item at that price and thereby ending the auction. The Buy-It-Now price is usually visible. This comes at a first-come-first-serve basis
