    time away
                     

    Why do I not find my items for sale, when I am on time away. I see the message: "the seller is away..." on my listings, but when I try to find them on ebay, the listings do not show.

    Hi @skl660 

     

    Here is a link to the eBay Help Page on Time away:  Time Away | eBay

     

    Depending on the settings you select for Time away your items may or may not be visible  while away.  Read the links on Allow items sales and Pause item sales.

    Ah thank you. I can only keep on selling up to 15 days. If the break is longer, they stop selling.

    Thanks!

    You are more than welcome ... you can extend your Handling time to cover the time you are away but at the end of the day shipping weeks after a Buyer purchases may not be a good thing.  That may not meet their expectations.

    That is true! Better just stop selling for a bit and continue later. Customers appreciate fast shipping.

    Thanks again!
