Out of town!

Question

I sold an item (I am new to selling) but, I am out of town for a few days. I found out after the fact that I can put a vacation hold on my account. I did not do that.
I messaged the buyer letting them know that I am out of town. Is there anything else that I can do?
I feel really bad.

@fluffyjellybean You will have a late shipment defect on your account for the item that sold if you don't ship within your stated handling time. I would ask the buyer if they want to wait until you get back to ship the item or if they want to cancel the sale. If they say they want to cancel the you could cancel as buyer requested.
