You can't delete your purchases. They remain in your Purchase History for 3 years before Ebay deletes them.

Hi, sorry I did not mean pemanantly delete. Its just that it is stuck on my purchase history, no hide button. I usually 'hide' when I receive but can't with this one. thank you for your help Rusticrye.
