Ending an item early.

Options
What is the earliest/latest you can end an auction. I have a motorbike listed and someone is interested in it. I've looked on ebay and to be honest it slightly confuses me.

    It always used to be that you couldn't end an auciton if it had less than 12 hours to go, but things change so quickly now on ebay that might no longer be the case.

  • I just tried to end an auction early but ebay won't let me. It has no bids on it, and doesn't end for 1day and 13 hours. Help!

  • Thank you! Managed to do it now :-) was starting to panic a bit that i might end up selling it. It was a sky plus box and my bedroom freeview actually started smoking today so had to go in the bin!

    That would have been gutting if you'd sold it, glad you sorted it out.
