Updated October 2026. OctoResell is a Chrome extension (it also works in Brave and Edge) that copies a listing to the other marketplaces, fills each form for you, and removes sold items from your other listings.
Steps
- Open Seller Hub and go to Listings, then Active.
- Select the listing, open the Actions menu and choose End listing.
- Pick a reason (for example, the item is no longer available) and confirm.
Worth knowing
- An auction that already has bids has extra rules about when you can end it. Read eBay’s help page for ending listings before you end one.
- Ending a fixed-price listing is different from setting its quantity to zero. Ending removes it from search; zero quantity can leave it as out of stock.
Delisting eBay automatically
eBay is assisted. OctoResell opens the right eBay page for the sold item so you end it yourself in one click, because ending a listing on eBay is a decision you should confirm.
OctoResell checks items that are listed on two or more marketplaces about every 15 minutes while your browser is open. It calls a sale only after the marketplace confirms it on two separate checks. It then removes the other listings from Poshmark, Mercari, Depop and Vinted, asking you first unless you turn on automatic removal, and checks that each listing is really gone. For eBay, Etsy and Facebook it opens the right page so you can end the listing yourself.
