Setting limit above above buy it now price

[jonokon]

I am looking at an item with a large difference between the current bid and the buy it now price. I don't want to use buy it now if I can get it at auction for less. Will my Gixen bid go through if I put the limit at or above the buy it now price, or will that cause some error that will mess up my bid?

If an item has an active BIN, eBay will not accept a bid at or above the BIN price. So, if you don't want to pay the BIN price, enter a bid less than the BIN price.
