bestOfferEnabled ( boolean ) [0..1]

Shows whether or not the seller will accept a best offer for the associated item. Best Offer allows a buyer to make a lower-priced binding offer on a fixed price item. Buyers cannot see how many offers have been made (only the seller can see this information). To make a best offer on a listing, use the eBay Web site.

See the Field Index to learn which calls use bestOfferEnabled.

buyItNowAvailable ( boolean ) [0..1]

Applies only to auction listings that were listed with a Buy It Now price. Buy It Now lets a user purchase the item at a fixed price, effectively ending the auction. On most sites, the Buy It Now option is removed (and this value returns false) once a valid bid is made on the associated item (a valid bid could be a bid above the reserve price).

buyItNowAvailable will return "false" if the listing type is anything but "AuctionWithBIN". Please ignore buyItNowAvailable for fixed-price listings.

See the Field Index to learn which calls use buyItNowAvailable.

buyItNowPrice ( Amount (double) ) [0..1]

The Buy It Now Price of the item (if any), in the currency of the site on which the item was listed. You can use this field to determine if the item was originally listed with Buy It Now, even if the Buy It Now option is no longer available for the item.

For Basic Fixed-Price (FixedPrice), Store Inventory (StoreInventory), Ad Format (AdFormat), and Classified Ad (Classified) listings, currentPrice is the current fixed price.

Only returned if an item was listed with Buy It Now.

See the Field Index to learn which calls use buyItNowPrice.

convertedBuyItNowPrice ( Amount (double) ) [0..1]

The listing's Buy It Now Price (if any), converted into the currency of the site to which you sent your search request. For active items, refresh this value every 24 hours to pick up changes in conversion rates (if this value has been converted).

Price fields are returned as doubles, not necessarily in the traditional monetary format of the site's country. For example, a US Dollar value might be returned as 3.880001 instead of 3.88.

Only returned if an item was listed with Buy It Now.

See the Field Index to learn which calls use convertedBuyItNowPrice.

endTime ( dateTime ) [0..1]

Time stamp specifying when the listing is scheduled to end, or the actual end time if the item listing has ended. This value is returned in GMT, the ISO 8601 date and time format (YYYY-MM- DDTHH:MM:SS.SSSZ). See the "dateTime" type for information about the time format, and for details on converting to and from the GMT time zone.

Note: For items that are "Good Till Canceled," this value is 5 minutes later than the actual end time of the item. This difference in time is intended to facilitate the renewal of these items' end times (which occurs every 30 days).

See the Field Index to learn which calls use endTime.

gift ( boolean ) [0..1]

If true, a generic gift icon displays next the listing's title in search and browse pages.

See the Field Index to learn which calls use gift.

listingType ( token ) [0..1]

The format of the listing, such as online auction, fixed price, or advertisement.

listingType values:
AdFormat: Advertisement to solicit inquiries on listings such as real estate. Permits no bidding on that item, service, or property. To express interest, a buyer fills out a contact form that eBay forwards to the seller as a lead. This format does not enable buyers and sellers to transact online through eBay and eBay Feedback is not available for ad format listings.
Auction: Competitive-bid online auction format. Buyers engage in competitive bidding, although Buy It Now may be offered as long as no valid bids have been placed. Online auctions are listed on eBay.com; they can also be listed in a seller's eBay Store if the seller is a Store owner.
AuctionWithBIN: Same as Auction format, but Buy It Now is enabled. AuctionWithBIN changes to Auction if a valid bid has been placed on the item. Valid bids include bids that are equal to or above any specified reserve price.
Classified: Classified Ads connect buyers and sellers, who then complete the sale outside of eBay. This format does not enable buyers and sellers to transact online through eBay and eBay Feedback is not available for these listing types.
FixedPrice: A fixed-price listing. Auction-style bidding is not allowed. On some sites, this auction format is also known as "Buy It Now Only" (not to be confused with the Buy It Now option available with competitive- bidding auctions). Fixed-price listings appear on eBay.com; they can also be listed in a seller's eBay Store if the seller is a Store owner.

See the Field Index to learn which calls use listingType.

startTime ( dateTime ) [0..1]

Time stamp that eBay recorded as the moment the listing was made available. This value is returned in GMT, the ISO 8601 date and time format (YYYY-MM- DDTHH:MM:SS.SSSZ). See the "dateTime" type for information about the time format, and for details on converting to and from the GMT time zone. Note that it is possible for startTime to be different from the value returned by GetSingleItem.

See the Field Index to learn which calls use startTime.

watchCount ( int ) [0..1]

The number of users that have added the item to their watch list.

See the Field Index to learn which calls use watchCount.
