Seller rules
On Hunters, yes - until the final 24 hours. Once an auction is inside its last day with bids or watchers, withdrawal locks and the auction runs to its end; only support can cancel it for genuine cause. Before that, sellers can withdraw (bidders and watchers are notified), and a lot nobody has bid on or watched can be pulled any time. Listings lock for editing at the first bid, and a reserve can be removed mid-auction but never raised.
The end of an auction is when bidders have invested the most - watching the clock, planning around pickup, holding money ready. Last-minute withdrawals (usually because the seller sold it off-site) are the fastest way to kill trust in an auction platform, so here they're simply not possible. If something genuinely stops the sale - the item broke, it was stolen - contact support; support cancellations leave an audit trail.
Withdraw an untouched lot (no bids, no watchers) at any moment. Withdraw a contested lot up until the final 24 hours - with a password or quick-PIN confirmation, and everyone with a bid or watch is notified. Remove the reserve at any time while the auction is live, which often reignites bidding; that's one-way - no raising it, no putting it back.
Until someone bids, everything is editable. From the first bid, the listing is frozen - changing the goods under people's bids would be a rug-pull, so the platform makes it impossible rather than against the rules.
