@gho-4853 ,

You’ll have to wait until the offers you made expires before you can make any changes.

While it’s true that you can’t edit an offer once it’s submitted, eBay does allow you to cancel an offer before it’s accepted by the seller. According to eBay's rules, you can retract an offer for specific reasons, such as:

1. You made a mistake in the offer price: For example, you entered $999.99 instead of $99.99.
2. The seller has not responded: If you can’t reach the seller or there’s an issue with communication.
3. Other valid reasons: As outlined in eBay's policy on offer retraction.

To cancel an offer, follow these steps:

1. Go to Purchase History or Bids/Offers in your account.
2. Locate the offer you want to cancel.
3. Click on Retract Offer and provide a reason if prompted.

However, if the offer has expired or been declined, no further action is needed as it’s no longer valid. Always double-check eBay’s official policy on offer retraction to ensure compliance.

I know now. I just find it ridiculous that eBay marks that at >4 days. I’m beginning to think I hate this company

The other option is to put the item on sale.  You control how many days / hours the sale lasts.
