First let me say that I would never consider ending an auction early if there are already bids...that is bad form and unfair to the bidders.
I will sometimes end an auction early or add a Buy It Now IF I know that the offer exceeds what I am expecting at auction, there are not many watchers or I have re-listed the item. I will only consider offers, I do not set prices to end the auction.
There was a time when I would never end an auction early and it was amazing to me that person would offer....say 2x the opening price but when they were politely told that I did not end auctions early, they never placed a bid and the auction ended with no bids. This happened on a couple of occasions, so I felt that I was costing myself business and customers.
