How to set a minimum price

  2. Enter in the minimum price you want to set for your listing. You can set different minimum price on depending on the Day of Week, After/Within a specific number of days and/or on Specific Date and Date range.

    Note: The hierarchy for the various minimum price rules from highest to lowest priority:

    • Date-specific has the highest priority and will override all other minimum price rules.
