Indeed... but I *have* emailed sellers before when I was in a real pinch and asked whether they would add a "Buy It Now" option, "as I need the part right away." Many times, they will add a Buy It Now price when possible or divulge that they have more of the item to sell. You can't ask them to end an auction and sell something outright, but you can ask if they have a Buy It Now price in mind.
Just remember to play by the rules!
