A GIN is a Get it Now... where you set a price, add the credits that Listia will charge you to do this, and someone can click that button, and the auction ends, and the piece is taken immediately, without waiting till your auction date is over. I believe that you have to list so many auctions before you have access to that option, and, once there are bids on an auction, you cannot add a GIN... You are charged 50 - 100 credits to list the GIN, that you get back if someone uses the GIN... if someone uses the GIN, you pay the % of the GIN price, which it shows you when you list so you know what the cost is to do the GIN. Once the bidding gets to half of what the GIN figure is, the GIN goes away... just a chance you have to take unless someone requests a GIN, and they fulfill their end of the auction...
