You can only delete an Auction if no bids have been made on any Items. The Auction and all Items will be removed from your dashboard, and the Overview and Auction tabs on your Campaign will disappear.

If bids have been made, you can cancel the Auction, but you won't be able to delete it. Canceling an Auction cancels all active and upcoming items. Items that have ended and have a winning bid will be marked as won and will still require fulfillment.

Deleting an Auction that has no bids

  1. Go to the Auctions tab of the Campaign.

  2. Click on Auction Settings.

  3. Under the Registration section, click Delete Auction.
