if i put something up for sale on ebay can i decide to not sell it and take it down?

i just wanna see how much i can get for something. can i just take it down whenever i want?
what if its a "buy it now"

If the auction has at least 12 hours to go, you can cancel the auction.

If you listed the auction as buy it now and someone already bought it, congratulations, you have a winner.

By the way, buy-it-now is not a guaranteed price. If you started the auction at $1 and a BIN at $100, someone can bin and win for $1. And yes, you are expected to deliver!

    Yes, IF you take it down before the auction ends. However, you will pay the listing fee and may get negative feedback from the high bidder.

    If you take it down & has already received bids, you need to remove the bids first then end the auction. Noone can leave a neg feedback for you. Keep in mind many bids don’t come in until the last few minutes so you really don’t know what the item will sell for.
    Use the completed auction list to see what you would get for the item.

    You cannot remove it after someone has bid on it. You will get suspended from Ebay.

    A buy it now means they buy it right away without an auction and bidding.

    You can look for a similar item to compare what it sells for.
