[Closed] Ebay - ending item early; can I be charged by eBay?

If I end an eBay item early (if I receive a message asking for a cash price for example), do I stand to get into trouble with eBay / be liable for some kind of charge?

I know it isn't very good form to end an item early, but with the 10 odd percent fee that eBay get their hands on, it is tempting.

Cheers

Use another form of advertising that's got the same audience but charges less then ?

No, you'll still have to pay the listing fee, which you'll have seen just before you clicked the list now option. But there will be no other charge. When you end an item early you get a drop down menu of options, one of which is 'the item is no longer available'. Click that, jobs done.

I've sold well over a hundred items on eBay but only have feedback for 35 sales as I nearly always end items early.
