Ebay starting bid £X's , buy it now £Y's question

Someone told me that an item I was after was on Ebay with a minimum starting bid of £120 or a £150 buy it now price. By the time I got to go online someone had made a £120 opening bid, and the £150 buy it now option had vanished. I contacted the seller and he couldn't understand why the buy it now had gone. He was still happy to sell at £150, but no longer had the (legitimate) option to do this. Can he reinstate the £150 buy it now price? If so, how please? Thanks.

Yep that would be the case if you had set the reserve at say £501 then BIN option would still be available. In CW's case the product would have already reached its reserve price
