Hello @sosututu
Once your scheduled Time Away starts, buyers will see a message at the top of your listings letting them know that you are away.
If you selected “Allow item sales,” buyers can still purchase or bid on your items. They will see the Time Away notice on the listing, and eBay will normally adjust the estimated delivery date in the Shipping and Delivery section so they can see when to expect the item.
For auction listings, the auction can continue during Time Away and bidders will still see the notice at the top of the listing.
If you selected “Pause item sales,” your fixed-price listings will be hidden. Auction listings can still remain active and will display the Time Away notice.
I just noticed...you said it won't be there until the scheduled time starts. It hasn't started. Duh.

@sosututu That would explain it. Since your scheduled Time Away hasn’t started yet, the notice won’t appear on your listings until the scheduled start time.
Right now I was still able to click Buy It Now on one of your listings without seeing any Time Away notice, which is expected if your scheduled start date hasn’t arrived yet.
I would plan the start date a little ahead of when you actually leave. eBay recommends starting Time Away a day before your time off to allow for any last-minute orders that you may still need to ship.

Mentor3 weeks agoHi @sosututu
I see you have 59 items for sale but I do not see any indication that you have Time away turned ON . Double check your settings ...
