If you just want to revise your listing, you don't always need to end it. For listings that have more than 12 hours left to run and haven't received any bids, you can revise almost everything. You can remove the Buy it Now price or reserve price, change the duration of the listing, or add listing upgrades.

If the listing already has one or more bids, you can still add upgrades or add to the description. You can add more pictures too. Once the listing gets into its last 12 hours, however, what you can do becomes far more limited even if it has no bids. You can only revise the description at this point.
