Indefinitely closing store

[mrcurtain2]

I'm going to stop selling on eBay indefinitely, at least as a business.

Is there a way to remove all of my listings in a way that I could re-list them again if I later chose to reopen the store?

Thanks!

Close your listings and they will go to your Unsold file where they will stay for 90 days.

After that, eBay will no longer host them.

I have all my pictures/scans in a desktop file on my computer and all my Descriptions, with HTML coding in another.  Those will be more permanent, but it takes five minutes to relist instead of five seconds.

@reallynicestamps Is there any way to download the descriptions?   Ideally with the "custom label" SKU I have for each item.

Even without listings you'll still be charged for your store unless you cancel the subscription.

Cut and paste.

Cut and paste.

KISS slow but reliable.

@mrcurtain2  I sell seasonally, so my off season stuff is stored in its own folder with the title, SKU and description with photo of the item on a Word doc (or whatever text program you use), with corresponding photos saved to a photo directory. You can do monthly, by category or whatever. It takes me a minute or so to do each listing - kind of a pain but eBay isn't going to archive anything.

The alternative is using a listing program like six-bit or one of the others that will archive your listings - they cost some monthly fee but it may be worth it.
