    You will if you didnt stipulate it in the auction description. Iva had a few ebay accounts suspended that did this to me.

    Read the rules on eBay, may be on dodgy ground if you alter the description now after people have bid?

    I find people wait until the last 10mins before any serious bidding starts!

    It'll defo shoot up in the last minutes, I had an interior which went over double in the last 5 mins, and that was just a standard one. You'd have to charge a lot to end early to make sure you don't lose out.

    You cant actually alter the description once someone has bidded. You can however add to the description but it appears with a datestamp, so it will be clear from the bidding history that the bid was placed before the stipulation.

    Ignore them. Anyone trying to get you to end early knows exactly what it's worth and is trying to get them cheap.

    If that many people are watching it tough it out. ;)

    Definitely do NOT take 'end it now offers'!
    You will almost certainly get more from bidding and you also have a degree of security with ebay/paypal.

    That's where I reply to the email saying I'm selling it for a friend and can't end it early. ;)
