I want to relist some of my items. I know you go to closed auctions to do this, but is there a way to edit the listing before clicking "relist?" I want to lower the price, etc. before relisting. Thanks everyone.

Hi, currently relisting from Auctiva does not allow editing, it just reposts directly (I am not sure even whether the listing can be subject of a relist credit if it sells on the second attempt).
Via Auctive is ok if a lower fee related aspect is NOT involved because you relist and revise the live listing, eBay will soon ask for more as necessary on a live revision.
In your case where a lower start price can mean a lower insertion fee you need to relist from eBay where they give the option to revise before the listing goes live again. (Update 25/06/07. On this point check out ninth_wave's and my next post below).

auctiva should then pick it up as a imported listing, so if you have to relist it again it should contain the revisions
If you relist from the Auctiva closed folder you are eligible for the insertion fee credit if it sells the 2nd time just as if you relisted directly from ebay. ChooChooGuy is correct in that there in no way to revise from Auctiva before clicking "relist". Either way however will take you to ebay's "revise your listing" page before going live. Another difference is that ebay gives you the option to schedule a relist (for $0.10 fee), Auctiva does not.
Aha, ninth_wave I did not realise that relist from Auctiva takes you directly to eBays revise item first.
So when I confirmed with Auctiva support that Auctiva's relist did not allow revision what I should have then asked was where you arrived at eBay.
Trying out some of these options and aborting listings is good for eBay where insertion fees are applied but tedious for us.
Mind you I would rather have the option of revising a listing at source (i.e. Auctiva) rather than have active ones different to saved ones especially where a listing is eligible for insertion fee credit.
