Listing all units sold - do I close the listing?
Hello,
The units of one of my listing is all sold out, and I don't think I will continue to restock this listing, shall I close the listing or just let it sit and maybe revisit again in the future? Will there be any penalty for inactive listing? or is there a way for me to keep the listing but restock later?
thanks,

You should always delete listings you do not expect to restock within a few weeks. You are responsible for every listing in your inventory, active or not..

If you don't think you will restock in the future, then close and delete. Phantom orders do appear once in a while (orders for stuff you don't have any more). If you get more in the future. you can always relist.

If 4 people rob a store and ONE of them kills someone, ALL go down for murder.
If 4 sit in a car and drugs are found and neither stands up and says "those are mine" all 4 go for drug possession.
If you decide to list on it, you are responsible for the contents. If the contents violate law and/or policies and you decide to ignore that, then you are as responsible as the person that posted it.

Hello @Seller_1drsiTB5msDwV,
Michelle at Amazon here!
I understand that you would like to know if you need to delete your listing if you no longer want to sell the item at this time. The answer is no, you are not required to delete the listing, however, if there is an infringement complaint on the product, you will need to appeal the notification and prove that you were not selling the item by giving them a screenshot of your orders page show that you have not sold it since whatever date that you stopped selling it.
I recommend that sellers remove the listing if they don't plan on selling the item in the near future and relisting if they decide to sell again. In order to remove all of your contributions on the listing, you can do so by uploading an inventory file, the instructions can be found here.
Follow these steps below that are from the link provided able to ensure that all of your contributions have been removed.
Sellers can delete both their offers and item data contributions by specifying an " x " in the " add-delete" field for Inventory Loader feed submissions. This will completely remove all data associated with the seller's SKU.
Again, this is not required, you can leave the listing up if you so choose. If you do delete it, you will not lose your information on sales history etc. That will remain in your account.
I hope this information is helpful!
Regards,
Michelle

At least close it. Somehow 0 quantity listings kept active have a way of mysteriously getting stock and selling again.
I would delete if not planning on carrying it anymore or if it is a discontinued item. As others stated you don't want to suddenly have issues with a hijacked listing.

Keep the listing open. There is no penalty to do so as far as I'm aware off.

If you sold it via FBA you might want to keep it open for a couple of months. I have seen returns get jammed up and not sent back to me if the listing has been deleted. Of course, if it's a low-ticket item or you don't otherwise care about getting them back, then go ahead and delete ASAP to avoid the other perils mentioned in this thread
