How to create a for-sale thread

[monk]

Hey there,

I'm new here, so please bear with me. I know it's forbidden to put "make an offer" instead of a price when posting a for-sale thread, but what if I put a price in my thread and moments later I have like 5 people willing to buy an item, some of them ready to pay much more than a posted price?

Of course, when I oficially tell Person A "the item is yours, here's my PayPal e-mail", I won't change my mind even after Person B later offers me more,. Promise is promise.

But I think it's my right to choose from a variety of offers before I make a final decision who the items goes to. Now, the question is - how do I handle the "current bid" stuff? Shall I put a post in my thread with "Guys, I've got an offer from some Rich Man, he wants to pay 50 EUR, instead of 5 EUR I originally wanted. Does anyone want to outbid him?"

PS No, I don't have an eBay account. And, to be perfectly honest, I didn't even think there would be more than one, if any, person interested in my stuff.
