Handling time

[jwhite300]

I've recently moved my business to a brick & mortar location from my house. I have 1 day handling on all of my listings (2100ish total) . I am closed on Wednesday and was wondering if there is any way to change handling on items sold on Tuesday to 2 day handling so I don't have to come to my store just to pack and ship a few items.

No. You could change your day off to Saturday or Sunday or stay on top of shipping for Wednesdays.

You could also change all of your listings to a 2-day handling and still ship goods the next day. (if you can)

Have you considered Time Away? Others will know better as I'm only using it for the second time, seeing that Hurricane Milton will be visiting my neighborhood in a few days. Appears it allows you to continue selling while informing  potential buyers that I won't be shipping until later if they do make a purchase. Maxed it out as I do not know if the power will go out and when it might resume but you could set it up for one or two days just as easily.

I would change my handling time.

I use business shipping policies to accomplish quick and easy handling time updates for hundreds of listings with just a couple of clicks. Fast and easy.

For what it is worth, I agree with the others that suggest you move to a 2 day handling time.  It won't mess with your ability to sell here at all.  I've had 2 day handling for a long time, even though I usually ship in 1 day.  I do that because sometimes life gets in the way.  Whether I get sick or there is someone in my family that needs me.  It really lowered my stress level so much.

You can easily do this with the Bulk Editor if you don't use any Business policies for shipping in your listings.

No. That would be pretty neat if it was possible to check off your days of operation and ebay would calculate your shipping/handling time accordingly though huh.

But sadly, no.

You do not have to change your handling time because of "tuesday".

I have my working days set to only those that I work.

You can have a cut off time and you can set the days that you work.

eBay will take that into account for meeting your handling time.
