How to edit posted post?

Hi,

 

By mistake I posted a spelling incorrect post on eBay community. Is there a way to edit or remove that post?

 

Thank you.

@sumi_0-9,

 

You have up to 5 minutes to edit a post after you have poste it to the site. If you miss the time interval, most of the time it's not necessary to worry about it.

 

After the 5 minutes, you can report it to the moderators and ask them to either edit for you or remove it if you feel that it is really necessary. See below: Click on the down-arrow in the top right corner of the post, and choose "Report inappropriate content". You will get a small text box where you can explain what the problem is.

 

I have found the moderators to be very helpful. When I made a significant typo, I have explained what needed to be corrected, and they have fixed it for me. However, most of the time they won't actually remove a post unless it violates the Community Guidelines, especially if it is part of an ongoing conversation.

AUGUST 2024 Wrong!  There was no way to edit my post as i immediately noticed a typo and wanted to fix it.

MAKE SURE TO PROOF READ YOUR POST BEFORE YOU POST IT.
