Okay guys I have been looking for my 1st MV and I have been looking at items sold already on GP to get a decent price margin and I have noticed a few items getting sold for a buy it now price... Where do you find the buy it now price or is it a chance I have clicked the link and all it says is if you bid the buy it now price you immediately win the auction but for the life of me I can't find the buy it now price on anything please some one explain

If I understand you correctly, GP may have multiples of one item & if you contact them (or they contact you) you can buy the item @ the starting list price. The only places I have seen this is on electrical equipment usually, but never on trucks or other rolling stock. Pile on guys if I am wrong.........

My understanding is that the BIN items are generally negotiated deals outside of the normal auction. Settled disputes etc.

They also have (had?) a daily market place where they offered items for a fixed price, no bid.

I've been wondering about the BIN option.
Cant find it either.

There were several M101A2s a couple weeks ago that sold that way for good prices.
Would have bought a couple if I could have found out how.

I have called and gotten buy it now on several pieces of railroad equipment.

All I did was call and say I wanted to make an offer. One was great, another was the starting bid.

I know when they misrepresented the SEE I bought, they made a new listing of my truck with a buy it now only price, instantly made me the winner, and that's how I got a little bit of a refund. I don't know if all the BIN's are from that or not, but I know mine was.
