InstantBuy lets you purchase the item from a seller at a fixed price without waiting until the timer runs out.

InstantBuying
To buy an item instantly, simply press the InstantBuy button, and then press the Confirmation button on the subsequent screen. Once you have confirmed, you will have "won" the item. You will also have entered into a legally binding contract to purchase the item from the seller. You will then need to complete the transaction by proceeding to the checkout and paying for the item.

The InstantBuy feature is only available on items where the seller has set an InstantBuy price. Some items are listed in both an Auction and InstantBuy (Hybrid) format. InstantBuy becomes unvailable after a bid is placed on Hybrid listings.

InstantBuy is available on a first-come first-served basis. Once the item has been purchased, it will be unavailable for purchase by other buyers.
