Why no 7 business day handling time? Jumps from 5 to 10

Over the years rather than pull my listings while on vacation (I don't have a store), I've just increased the handling time. Started out doing it when we were just gone for a few days, this past June did it when we were gone 3 weeks with no issues. I find when we are gone for a week we often leave on Saturday or Sunday, so I have to choose 10 working days handling time. At some point during our time away I change it to 3 or 4 days. If 7 business days was one of the options it would better cover an absense of 1 week. Just my grumble for the day.

Well, if ebay ever operates with LOGIC  I'll probably have a heart attack and die from Shock. I agree it is STUPID not to offer 6-9 day shipping waits but on the scale of STUPID things that ebay does DAILY this one ranks very low. Most executives at ebay today deserve to be sitting on the unemployment line. We see how the incompetent executives  ruined Sears...it's like a watching the same movie plot unfold over here on ebay.......
