Can I Revise My Listing Before It Ended ?
You can make major changes to your listing after it has gone "LIVE" to the site, but only before it actually receives a bid. this gives you come time to Revise Your Item.
To make revisions to a live item where no bids have been placed, go to the item description page. Look for and click the link "Revise item " on the top section of the item page next to "Seller Services".
Click the button to go back to the Review and Submit page,where you can change almost anything about your listing.
Revising an item after bids are received: In case where bids have been received and you need to correct an error, but the error is not so serious as to warrant ending the listing early, you can always add to the listing's description. To do so, go to the "My eBay" Selling tab,scroll down to the bottom of the page, and click the link for "Add to my item description." Follow the instructions from there.
This feature is very handy for adding information about the item or more pictures of the item after a listing has begun.
To revise your listing:-
- Click the My eBay button at the top of most eBay pages.
- Under the My eBay Views column, click the "Selling" link. Your list of items is displayed.
- For each item you want to revise, click the button under the Action column and click the "Revise" link.
- On the Review and Submit Listing page, click the "Edit..." link next to the part of the listing you want to change.
- On the Revise Your Item Page, make your changes.
Note: If you do not see an "Edit..." link, the ability to revise your item has been limited.
Revision Limitations:- The information that you can revise in your listing depends on the time left before the listing ends and whether or not you have received any bids. In most cases you cannot change the listing format, that is :- you cannot change from an auction-style listing to an eBay Stores listing. You also cannot change your listing from auction format to fixed price, or vice-versa.
The following table shows the changes you can make depending on the type of listing, the time left before it ends, and whether you have received any bids:
Click on your listing type to see what you can revise:-
Auction-style listing
eBay Stores or Fixed Price listing
Store Inventory listing
Tip:-If you want to revise your listing but there's less than 12 hours before it ends, or there are bids for the item, you will need to end your listing early and relist it with your corrections.
