Ending a listing

[kudos_plaza]

Hello eBay community,

I'm going start selling in eBay.

Before starting selling I want to have a clear idea about the procedure of ending a listing.

Is it okay to end a listing at anytime?Will it affect my account?

Second thing is, when my number of available items reach zero, will my listing automatically get removed?

Can anyone help me to find answers to these?

Thank you!Stay safe!

Not sure about your limits, but to end an auction early you must cancel any bids first. On your Active listing page there is an option to end the listing. You need to select the one you want to end, then hit the end listing selection at the bottom of the list. If there are bids, it will ask you to cancel them. Cancelling an item with bids can get you a strike in some cases.

There is no "strike" for ending an auction early, but the seller will be charged a fee which is the same as what the final value fee would have been if he had sold to the high bidder.

There is no fee or any other penalty if you end a fixed price listing, or an auction that has not yet received any bids.

In your Site Preferences is an option called "Out of stock" which will keep your listing active (but hidden from other members) when the quantity reaches zero, then it will show up again when you get the item back in stock and adjust the quantity.
