Immediate payment is sometimes required by sellers to make sure an item is paid for before they ship

To use immediate payment, you need to:

• Pay for the item before you win it.

• Pay with PayPal using a credit card, bank card, or PayPal account.

• Be aware that another member could win the item first by paying first.

To purchase an item using immediate payment:

• Look for items that have an immediate payment required link below the Buy It Now price in the listing.

• Click the Buy It Now button. If the listing is for multiple items, be sure to specify the quantity you want.

• Review your shipping address and the total cost of the item on the Confirm Your Payment page.

• Click the Continue button to complete the purchase.

• After you see the message confirming your payment, the item is yours.

For items that require immediate payment and have both a starting bid price and a Buy It Now price, the Buy It Now price disappears when a bid is placed.
