How do you stop a listing temporarily? Going on vacation for a week, but I want to resume after.

Use the "time away" option for fixed price listings. Listing stays active , but does not show up in search. I use the "buyers can not purchase" while I am away, option.

Be sure to change your "handling time" if plan on allowing customers to make purchases while you are on vacation.   Even when you put your store "on vacation" that does NOT adjust your handling time (if you get orders when you are gone and don't ship promptly...you will get a "defect" on your account if you don't ship on time).

Not true - it changes the estimated delivery date until you are back + handling + transit time.
