My auction closed without a winner. Can I resubmit an auction?

At the close of auction, if you have not received any bids, or if your reserve price has not been met, you may resubmit your auction.

To resubmit your auction:

  • Click on \"My Auctions\" on the upper right hand corner of any auctions page.
  • Click on the \"Closed/Sold\" link.
  • To the right of the auction title, click on \"Resubmit.\"
  • On the next page, edit or add any information you want to include when you resubmit your auction. When you've finished, click on the \"Continue\" button.
  • Preview your auction. If you need to make any corrections, click the \"Back\" button at the bottom of the page.
  • Click on the \"Submit Auction\" button to post your auction.
When you resubmit, consider making changes to your original listing. Evaluate the following:
  • Was your starting price too high?
  • Did you include a photo of the item?
  • Did you provide a detailed description of the item?

Please note that if the previous version of your auction closed without a winning bidder, our system essentially recycles the auction. The resubmitted version reuses the old auction ID number, the previous version no longer shows in your Closed/Sold list, and all information from the previous version (such as bids and questions asked) disappears.
