Bid = the current amount bid on the item.

BIN = by it now price. You can pay this price and purchase the item without bidding on it.

If you are bidding on it, you have to be the high bidder at the end of the auction. Then you have to pay for it, then it is shipped to you.

If you use the BIN option, you pay for it right then and the seller ships it to you.
