I don’t use Gixen very often because I don’t buy much but I had one item out of three not work—says auction ended early. How is that possible? Not sure how to fix this. I am bummed. Item number 165233237111

Yes, it ended early because the seller accepted a best offer as detailed here:

https://www.ebay.com/bfl/viewbids/165233237111

As originally listed it wasn't due to end until 21st December.

It's happening more and more these days because Ebay are promoting sellers to use 'Best Offer' buttons and sellers do not necessarily realise that it's not in their best interest to accept the lower offers they receive as a result.

As an aside the offer price displayed may not be the offer that was accepted, Ebay just chooses always to display it as the opening price.
