I'm having trouble closing listings with the new inventory pages. I check the box on the left of the listing, click the "close listing" selection at the bottom of the inventory page, and nothing happens
don't need to check the box on the left of the listing but the three dots on the right of the listing. there you click "close listing".

In addition to what @Seller_rI7BZIczK8iAC and @Seller_Hi7wbO2Kbo6bl have noted, if you are NEVER going to sell the product in the future just 'closing' it and even 'deleting' an ASIN does NOT remove it from the Amazon history. Those little electron bits and pieces can come back and bite you even 5 years down the road when rules change again!
This was from a fairly recent post by AMAZON that was actually helpful for a change!

Delete SKUs Using Inventory Loader
You can use the Inventory Loader to delete SKUs from your inventory. Deleting SKUs is different from deleting offerings. Product detail pages are created based on input from many sellers. Using the Inventory Loader to delete SKUs will remove your contributions to the descriptive product attributes that are rendered on product detail pages. This enables you to manage the item data associated with specific SKUs.
Delete both your offers and item data contributions.
Enter an "x" in the add-delete field in your Inventory Loader file. This will completely remove all data associated with your SKU.
Deactivate your offers without deleting item data contributions.
Enter a "d" in the add-delete field in your Inventory Loader file. When you delete offers by entering a "d" in the add-delete field, it sets your inventory for the SKUs to "0". This will make those listings show as inactive.
If you submitted a category-specific inventory file originally and want to use an Inventory Loader file to delete SKUs or make other changes to your listings, you can modify an Active Listings Report. See Use Reports to Update Inventory
Reuse of SKUs
• In general, we discourage reusing SKUs for different products. Each SKU should have a one-to-one relationship with a unique ASIN.
• Assign a new SKU to each new product being sold. This will maintain previous item data contributions that are associated with a specific SKU.
• If you do reuse a SKU, first delete the active ASIN data or you will receive an error message. To remove old associations before reusing a SKU, enter an "x" in your Inventory Loader file. This is important for sellers who routinely reuse SKUs to associate previous SKUs with new ASINs.
Hi there @Seller_T4iXwCyzl3wxk,
Was the advice provided by other sellers able to close the listings you are having issues with? It may be that you are using a Browser that isn't the most compatible with Seller Central. If you are still having issues I would recommend you ensure you are using Chrome or Firefox, which are the most compatible with Seller Central. If that doesn't work, provide your Seller Support Case ID and I will investigate further.
Thank you for your understanding.
