What does “ending an item” mean?

Whenever you want to take a live listing off of eBay, you end it. (i.e. deleting an item from eBay).

How do I end listings?

To end an item on eBay, just follow the steps:

1. Go to Products page, tick the item you want to end, then click on the eBay drop-down and choose the End option.
2.  A confirmation message will pop-up. Once you’ve confirmed that you wish to end the item, the listing will be ended.
   
   
   
   You can also end the item from the Listings page, as such:
   

1. Go to Listings and select the item you want to end.
2. Press on the End button in order to end it.
   
   
   
   
   

1. Note: Please keep in mind that if you end an item, you will lose all of its sales history on eBay.
