Unfortunately, a deleted or expired ad / auctions cannot be reactivated.
Tips
- Deactivate an ad / auctions, and do not delete them, so you have access to it and can reactivate it if necessary.
- Save a copy of the ad / auction or take a picture or screenshot in case something goes wrong.
After deactivating an ad / auction, only you can see it. You can find the option "deactivate ad / auction" on the ad or auction card, if you are logged into the system as a registered user.
Deactivation is particularly useful if you have almost sold the goods, and do not want to receive any further inquiries.
With the "Activate" button you can activate the deactivated ad/ auction, so it will be visible for all users again.
Deactivating your ad or auction does not affect the duration of your ad or auction.
To delete an ad / auction, log in and then go to the ad or auction card, press "Delete" or log into your personal account and go to "My Ads / Open Auctions" choose the ad / auction and press "Delete".
If you only want to activate an ad or auction for a short period of time, see this subsection for additional information.

The message is usually sent directly to the seller, but to protect our users, we filter spam and other suspicious messages. If there is any suspicion of fraud or a violation of our rules, we reserve the right to postpone or refuse to deliver messages.
Therefore, make sure that you adhere to the terms of our service. Your message will be sent and you will receive an answer as soon as possible.
Please check your spam folder, or open your email in MS Outlook or Mozilla Thunderbird. In most cases you just have to be patient, because the recipient of your e-mail has probably not read it yet. You can also contact the user again.
If the buyer who bought your goods through the ad (not auction) and does not respond to your request to pay for the goods, you can send another message asking them to pay for the goods they bought.
If the buyer still does not respond, you can sell the goods to other interested customers. To do this, simply accept a new request from another prospective customer. The first request from the buyer who did not answer will then be automatically invalid.
